Have you ever come across an April Fool prank that confused you, but you were also rolling on the floor laughing? Well, not quite literally, but you know what we mean? Jared Leto's perfect April Fool prank came as the 52-year-old actor came to two different shows, starting with a surprise appearance on Wheels Of Fortune, where the actor pranked viewers while pretending to be Pat Sajak. After making an entry to the stage with Vanna White, Leto went to the contestants and introduced the first puzzle of the night. 

"Here are the stars of our show, Jared Leto and Vanna White," the announcer said as the pair walked out arm in arm.

Much like longtime host Pak Sajak Leto told White, "Have a great show and see you soon," before separating from her so she could take her place next to the puzzle board.

“All right, everybody, grab those devices; it’s time to give away some money. $1,000 and our first toss-up category is on the map,” he said while introducing the puzzle. However, when it came time to call the puzzle, Pal Sajak was back and Leto was nowhere in sight, cutting back to regular host Sajak as if nothing had happened. Leto's appearance was never mentioned further in the episode.
