Chris Moyles may have to put a stop to his dieting as his recent weight loss means he's getting too thin to play King Herod in Andrew Lloyd Webber's new musical.

Since he signed up for Jesus Christ Superstar, the Radio 1 DJ has slimmed down dramatically.

'We signed Chris and now he's gone and lost all that weight,' says Andrew, 64.

'Herod was a big man, so it looks like it will be a fat suit.'

Chris, 38 - who recently revealed he's quitting the Radio 1 Breakfast Show after eight years to be replaced by Nick Grimshaw - was approached personally by Andrew to appear in the musical.

'Having Chris was my idea,' he tells the Daily Star.

'I knew he could sing because I'd seen him on The X Factor: Battle Of The Stars back in 2006 and we did the usual sing-song around the piano before I hired him.'

Chris will star alongside Mel C, Tim Minchin and the winner of new ITV1 show Superstar.

This amuses me endlessly, Moyles in a fat suit? haha

I find it odd that ALW wants to put him in a fat suit as Herod hasnt always been fat as he wasnt fat in either the 1973 film or the 2000 film. And more people in the world will see those representations of JCS than any other. Just seems odd to me.

And I won't sit down,

And I won't shut up,

But most of all I will not grow up <3

I personally just cant wait. My grandad offered to take my sister and I to see either this or Viva Forever (based on the music of the Spice Girls) I want to see JCS but my sister wants to see Viva Forever and apparently just shouting MOYLES and MINCHIN at her is not a valid argument as to why we should go and see it.

But King Herods song is probably my favourite song of the whole musical. Moyles should be brilliant in this role - fat suit or no fat suit

And I won't sit down,

And I won't shut up,

But most of all I will not grow up <3
