Jamie Oliver is teaming up with Ryan Seacrest to get America healthy
Super chef Jamie Oliver is teaming up with US media mogul Ryan Seacrest in an ambitious project to get America healthy.
The two television personalities will star in a reality series that gives a makeover to an entire city.
They will travel to some of the unhealthiest places in the US and find ways to use nearby sources to improve local eating habits.
The series is loosely based on the chef’s acclaimed UK project Jamie’s School Dinners, aimed at improving kids’ nutrition.
It will be produced by Seacrest’s company, and came about after he was amazed by response to the topic on his radio show in California.
He then heard Oliver was looking to bring his public-service campaign stateside.
The resulting six-episode ABC series will not only tackle a city’s schools, but workplaces and other avenues for change.
“I couldn’t do what I do in terms of my schedule if I didn’t eat right and exercise right,” Seacrest told The Hollywood Reporter.
“As a kid I was chubby, and I’m a firm believer that the fuel we put into our body results in a healthy lifestyle.
“Jamie’s going to come over here, roll up his sleeves and use the resources of each town to help condition living habits to make it a better and healthier place.”
