\"THE The Sydney Morning Herald reports that British chef Jamie Oliver had to turn down the opportunity to cameo in The Hobbit due to work comittments. Unlucky!<\/p>\n

\n

British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver reveals he was offered a hobbit role in one of Peter Jackson’s blockbuster Tolkien adaptations, but rejected the chance due to work commitments.<\/p>\n

The deal was Oliver could play a hobbit in exchange for cooking director Peter Jackson a 50th birthday meal in 2011.<\/p>\n

The British cook told US actress Kate Hudson about the deal with the Lord of the Rings director on his new Channel 4 show, Jamie And Jimmy’s Friday Night Feast.<\/p>\n

“The worst thing that happened to me was that I got phoned up by the exec producer and asked did I want to go and cook for Peter Jackson’s birthday, the big birthday,” he said.<\/p>\n

“And if I did, they would fly me over and I could be a hobbit in the film. But I was working, I couldn’t get out of it. I really wanted to do it,” he added.<\/p>\n
