A 27 year old designer label wearing multi millionaire hipster model is perfect for the role of a nerdy, antisocial mamma's boy? okay then lol.. not sure how you figure that one, with a white wig and beard he'd look more appropriate for Old Joe than Ogie
Lilia Rose Jones so how he is perfect for the role? Lucie looks the part. There’s a difference between being the person and looking like the person 🙄 One is called acting, the other is called casting
To be fair, after seeing Jack McBrayer play Ogie I wasn’t sure how anyone else could be as perfect for the role of Ogie as him, but after seeing the audition I think Joe has the potential to do Ogie justice
Honestly joe is such a good person. RU-vid these days is so filled with drama but he just minds his own business and accomplishes things many could never dream of and that is why he is such a good role model. I wish there were more people in this world like him because he is just a pure, honest person and deserves every single thing that comes his way.
I love how Joe is so genuine in how he is. His modesty isn’t fake and he’s actually appreciative of the life he has. Makes him a more likeable RU-vidr. Congrats on Waitress!!! It’s one of my fave musicals xx
He has achieved so many amazing things in his 7 years on RU-vid and as a Thatcher and yet unlike some youtubers is so humble and appreciative and so genuine. That's why I love him so much. He is an inspiration to all of us 😊
I come from a musical theatre background. You nailed that audition, you're a natural performer, awesome. What makes you a great person is that you're greatful and humble, and appreciate the opportunities you have been given. 💕
Well said! I come from a musical theatre background as well and I think that he did amazing in his audition! I also was impressed with how humble he is about the whole thing! I’m wishing him the absolute best!
Your acting is absolutely incredible. In those clips I didn’t see thatcher joe, I saw your character and not many actors can demonstrate easily distinguishable characters and you did it! I really want to watch you in the musical I know you’re going to be so amazing and you’re going so so far you deserve everything you achieve you’ve worked so hard and you have incredible talents ❤️
Armani Rosetta not all actors can do that. It’s one thing being able to memories lines and it’s another being able to fully turn into your character and embody it completely. It’s an extremely difficult thing to master and Joe seems to be a natural.
Oh my gosh I'm actually in tears! I remember watching you all the way back in 2012 and look at what you've accomplished since then!! Theatre is such an incredible experience and to be in a West End production is no joke, I'm so incredibly proud of you ♥️♥️
Who else watches Colleen ballinger and Joe and is losing their mind at the fact that Joe is going to be in a show that Colleen is currently doing. 💕💕 Edit: wow that's a lot of likes thanks guys!
I’m legit tearing up. I’ve been watching you for yeaaaaaars now and seeing you so happy doing all these amazing things makes me SO proud. Wish I could go to your show in London. Go on, Joseph!! ❤️
I watch yours and Dianne's vlogs and i'm going to be honest I'm a performer myself, I heard that you were cast in the role and thought oh god really a youtuber on the west end when people train for years to get there and some never do get there it seems unfair but then I watched this and saw you absolutely smash the audition and I ate my words, you will be fantastic in the role well done and from theatre kid to theatre kid break a leg x
Never in my life have I commented on a video before but I'm so excited for this! Congratulations Joe. Being in theatre gives you such a buzz that you just don't get elsewhere. I can't wait to buy tickets, it's an incredible show and I have no doubt you will bring the character to life
Totally got emotional listening to you tell everyone you got the roll 😆 this is so amazing! So happy for you Joe! Guess this means I’ll be watching Waitress for a 4th time then!!! Can’t wait 😀😀
Congrats Joe you worked hard and you've earned your success. I feel like a proud Father who has watched you grow from a boy to a man. PS I'm a 70 year old fan, I watched you for the past 7 years.
I love how joe is so humble he got one of just two of the main rolls for a west end musical and he only put the video on his vlog channel and the title didn’t even say that he got it and like other youtubers recently got into the same show and they made like a huge thing about it which you should it’s crazy amazing and joes just like ohh it was just luck I got lucky no you didn’t joe you are amazing
AMAZING! i first saw this announcement on dianne’s ig and i got so confused bc i didn’t recall seeing any vids or anything about it, but here it is! first colleen and todrick, now joe! so so cool
I'm so proud of you, Joe! You are truly living life to the fullest. Hope opportunities keep coming through so you can continue to shrine through all of them!
Joe,you really deserve this , from a hardworking boy touching the roofs up, the giving a shoot on youtube you from all the people i know you are the most deserving😊 can't wait for the many great things that will come your way. Congratulations and good luck 🍀
My friend asked me to come see this a month or two ago and we never got round to it but will 100% be booking tickets for it now!! So proud of u and can't wait to see it!
I’m so incredibly happy and proud of you Joe!! I’ve been watching you since you hit 100,000 subs which has been ages and seeing you fulfilling your dreams and exploring new things in your career is amazing! Love you so much ❤️
This is so amazing!!! Well done Joe!!! I rested up when you were telling your family and Di 😭😍 You should be so so proud of yourself. What an amazing achievement, and you do deserve it and every success you have. Sending lots of love to you xxxxx
When I heard ogie’s song for the first time after you were announced I knew you could do the voice because of your impression videos and I’m so so happy you got this and it went well!!!!!!
I'M SO PROUD OF YOU AHHH !!! I've been watching you on RU-vid since you were thatching roofs, and look how you've grown 😭😭 I'm almost graduated now too, life is strange but I love being here to watch all its progressions ❤️
Congratulations Joe! I think it’s great that you are trying new things and getting out of your comfort zone! All the best in your role! You’ll do amazing! 🥰❤️
Well done Joe, you deserve all these good things happening because you put out positivity and it will always come back to you as a reward ❤ Best of luck with it.
oh my god Joe I’ve only just been able to watch this video as I’m on holiday but I’m honestly so so proud of you! You’ve come so far from thatching a roof 7 years ago! I love you so much and I can’t wait to see you perform WEST END omg it still hasn’t sunk in😆💕
Congratulations Joe on 7 years on RU-vid and of course in securing a FREAKING WEST END role!! That's seriously a big deal (for anyone particularly from the other side of the Pond who doesn't know, that's equivalent to getting a role in a Broadway show). You really deserve it, and more. Here's to the next chapter of life!
Joe I’ve been following you for a long time and this, this is something you deserve 100% even someone who doesn’t know you would say you deserve it because you are born to be an entertainer in any shape of form. You are always brilliantly funny and always able to bring a smile to peoples faces. It may not be a generic pathway to get into theatre but the destination was always a part of your fate
I'm so proud of Joe, been there since he started his channel; he is so hard working. He really does deserve every amazing opportunity that comes his way.
this made me so happy. he completely killed that audition, you can see he took the time and embodied the character but also made it his own!! I’m so happy for him!! ✨✨
I’m so incredibly proud of Joe. I’ve been watching him for 6 years now, and have always been inspired by his talent that he had grown from his RU-vid journey. As someone who loves performing arts, musicals in particular, it was so amazing to see him taking this opportunity and giving it his all without worrying about what others are thinking about him. I feel super inspired by this as I’m sure many other young viewers are and I can’t express how proud I am of Joe for getting into Waitress! I’ve seen the show in London and think that he really suits the role of Ogie, so congrats Joe! And thank you for everything you do ❤️
So incredibly proud Joe! 💕 You're gonna make a great Ogie! Enjoy every second of this experience, you've earnt it. Also, thank you for reminding us that good things do happen when we step outside our comfort zone! Biggest congrats! 🌟
Don't mind me here in tears watching this. Sara Bareilles is my absolute icon and watching her break into the Broadway world was amazing. Now here's my favourite RU-vidr doing the same in her wonderful show Waitress and I just could not be more happy for you! Break a leg, Joe!
you sound so cute! i’m really liking how your ogie is turning out. i used to be a huge fan of your channel and it’s kind of funny that you’ve now infiltrated my life again by joining one of my favorite musicals. break a leg, man!
The advice at 1:50 is soooooo true. Especially for anything theatre/drama related. You may think you look stupid doing it but in real life it looks really good
