Leveraging his transformation, Fogle seized the opportunity to become Subway’s primary spokesperson. He excelled in the company’s commercials, proudly showcasing his remarkable weight loss journey.
However, Fogle’s once-admired status took a drastic turn with his arrest in 2015. Once his dark history came to light, the affection previously directed toward him quickly vanished.

The Hollywood reckoning over the last few years has led to the downfall of many top celebrities who faced accusations of sexual misconduct, including Bill Cosby, Matt Lauer and Kevin Spacey. The stars’ tarnished reputation has triggered a reexamining of their work, with some of their shows and movies pulled from circulation.
Additionally, networks and streamers have added content warnings to old programs over outdated cultural depictions, especially those related to race, and there has been a movement to end racial stereotypes on-screen, which led to Hank Azaria walking away from his long-time character Apu on The Simpsons and several animated series recasting roles of Black/mixed-race characters who had been voiced by white actors.
The Saturday Night Live‘s season finale, hosted by Anya Taylor-Joy, tackled the topics with a 1998 episode of Hollywood Squares, featuring cast members portraying Cosby, Lauer, Spacey, former Subway spokesman Jared Fogle, a convicted sex offender,...

Disgraced Subway spokesman Jared Fogle is currently behind bars serving his 15-year sentence for child pornography — but that's not stopping hiim from messaging new victims online. The 40-year-old pedophile was reportedly caught using the Internet to message women even though he is a registered sex offender. "Jared is emailing my friend and God knows how many other women and girls," an anonymous source told Radar Online. "I think it’s gross they would allow child molesters access to the internet. Prisons should be monitoring it." The outlet reached out to a corrections expert, who confirmed that prison rules prohibit child molesters like Jared from accessing the Internet. (Photo Credit: Getty Images) However, Jared allegedly sent multiple email messages dated Feb. 27. "I told her there is nothing fascinating about a child molester,” the source continued. "Especially one who is looking for new victims!" Previously, he was caught sending x-rated letters to a female pen pal.

Morgan Freeman and Visa have enjoyed a long relationship over years with the actor appearing in many of the credit card’s commercials as well as featured as a voiceover artist in its spots. After today, following allegations that surfaced from multiple women about sexual harassment and untoward behavior by the 80 year-old actor, Visa is stepping back.
In a just released statement from Visa, a spokeswoman said: “We are aware of the allegations that have been made against Mr. Freeman. At this point, Visa will be suspending our marketing in which the actor is featured.”
This comes after Vancouver-based transit system TransLink backed away as well. It had been featuring a Morgan Freeman voiceover for a Visa ad campaign to promote TransLink’s Visa credit card and mobile payments on its buses and at its automated rapid transit system SkyTrain.

Disgraced Subway spokesperson, Jared Fogle, is trying — once again — to get out of jail. The 40-year-old pedophile was sentenced to 15 years in prison in 2015 after pleading guilty to a child pornography case and sex charges. Now, he's seeking $57 million and a new trial in a federal civil suit. According to Fox 59, Jared is asking for the large financial sum because he says federal officials stole his Subway fortune from him during his trial. In the suit, which was filed in March, Jared alleged that the warrant the FBI used to search his home didn't exist. He also claimed that he received poor advice from his lawyers to plead guilty to "false charges" and to pay $1.4 million in restitution to his victims. (Photo Credit: Getty Images) Yet this isn't the first time Jared has tried to lower his sentence. In fact, he even went as far as reaching out to President Donald Trump for help.

Who knew former Subway spokesperson Jared Fogle considered himself on good terms with President Donald Trump? The 40-year-old pedophile was sentenced to 15 years in prison in 2015 after pleading guilty to a child pornography case and sex charges. Now, after several other failed attempts, he's looking to be set free — with Trump's help. According to TMZ, Fogle filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus — which simply means he's filed a direct appeal for the federal prison to release him. He reportedly filed the document against the warden of his prison and included President Trump as a respondent. TMZ said he added the White House's address on the document, as well. (Photo Credit: Getty Images) It's currently unclear how Fogle thinks President Trump can help him.

Apparently, not even prison can stop Jared Fogle's pervy ways. The disgraced former Subway spokesperson is currently serving a 15-year sentence in a Federal Correctional Institution for his child molestation conviction. You'd think that'd be enough to keep the felon off the dating market — but, Radar is reporting that he and a pen pal are exchanging X-rated letters while he's behind bars. The woman who is engaging in this "relationship" with Fogle leaked the letters and the context is... disturbing, to say the least. The 40-year-old pedophile reveals his fantasies during the correspondence. "Boobs are my favorite thing, you know?" he writes. "You can't show boobs or p---y or anything like that. You know, I mean, but other than that it's pretty much whatever." (Photo Credit: Getty Images) He also asks the woman for explicit descriptions of her relationship with a female friend. Plus, he admits how he's coping with living within the prison.

Remember Jared Fogle the Subway guy? There was a reason why the FBI was investigating him before he got busted for having child pornography. In 2007 Rochelle Herman-Walrond, a reporter in Sarasota, made it known to the FBI that Fogle had made salacious remarks about her daughters. For the next four years she agreed to help them out as they wiretapped every conversation between her and Fogle, who fully admitted to having sexual relations with younger girls. Unfortunately that wasn’t enough as the FBI needed hard evidence in order to put Jared away. It was only when Russell Taylor and

Like both of its namesake nouns, the Sharknado franchise is indiscriminate in its appetites, devouring cameos and guest stars with undisguised, buzz-craving hunger. These range from the relatively benign—hey there, Steve Guttenberg—to the absolutely disastrous (like when the franchise had to race to chop Jared Fogle out of the third movie, shortly after he was arrested on child pornography charges). Today, The Hollywood Reporter has an in-depth look at the show’s ravenous casting process, including the revelation that franchise star Tara Reid gets paid roughly a quarter of what Ian Ziering gets, and the intricacies of producers’ failed attempt to get Donald Trump on board to play the series’ fictional president.
The Reid pay disparity apparently dates back to the first movie, when the film’s creative team had to throw a bunch of money at Ziering to sign on to star. (It was a more innocent...

After a Canadian study revealed that Subway’s chicken may only contain about half actual chicken, the sandwich chain is vehemently denying the validity of the allegations.
“The accusations made by CBC Marketplace about the content of our chicken are absolutely false and misleading. Our chicken is 100 percent white meat with seasonings, marinated and delivered to our stores as a finished, cooked product,” a spokesperson told NBC News in a statement.
“We have advised them of our strong objections. We do not know how they produced such unreliable and factually incorrect data, but we are insisting on a full retraction.
