We received this e-mail from Biggest Loser's Casting Director.:

"Hi Zak,

This past May, Chicago’s very own Mike Ventrella, a 31-year-old DJ, defeated 21 other contestants to win our coveted title of “The Biggest Loser” for our 9th season. Mike took home $250, 000 as well as going down in our history books as being the FIRST CONTESTANT EVER to lose the most weight on our show. Ventrella dropped from 526 pounds down to 262, shedding a whopping 264 lbs! That is over half of his body weight!

Because of the great people in Chicago and the spirit of Mike Ventrella, we are coming back to Chicago on July 24th at the NBC Towers to hold an open casting call to try to find our next hero. We are doing promotions the week prior and would love to see if the Chitown Radio would be able to do any editorial, to spread the word about our open call.

Next Wednesday, July 21st 2010 Mike will be throwing out the first pitch at the Cubs vs. Astros game and we are super excited!

Thank you for your consideration!

CHICAGO OPEN CASTING CALL
