Seacrest In


OK, name a show in which Dick Clark, Ryan Seacrest, and Mariah Carey worked together.

Good. Name another one.

According to imdb, the only time that Clark and Seacrest shared professional credits before this past New Year was for the 30th Annual American Music Awards in 2003. Clark was of course the executive producer, and Seacrest just made an appearance, as did the aforementioned Carey, Paula Abdul, Pat Boone, Bobby Brown, various Osbournes, and both Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. Paul Shefrin was publicist (he was also publicist for Lou Rawls, by the way).

Seacrest, meanwhile, continues to be the hardest working man in show business. Interestingly enough, he does have one fictional credit - as Jack Craft in the 1995 show "Reality Check." But of course he's best known for his appearances on...Extra. Just kidding.

Ryan Seacrest is now in his fifth season as host of FOX’s No. 1 hit show, AMERICAN IDOL Last year he helped FOX enjoy its highest ratings share for the fourth season in a row. With AMERICAN IDOL, his radio shows “On Air with Ryan Seacrest’ and “American Top 40’ and his many specials and award shows throughout the year, he reaches millions of American eyes and ears.

Originally from Atlanta, Seacrest began his professional career in broadcasting at the age of 16, when he applied for an internship at one of Atlanta’s top radio stations, WSTR/STAR 94. Impressed by his talent, the station offered him the nighttime slot (7:00 PM to midnight), and the show became one of the station’s highest-rated. Seacrest then went to Los Angeles’ KYSR/STAR 98.7, where he had a successful six-year stint hosting the high-rated drive-time show “Ryan Seacrest for the Ride Home” with Lisa Foxx.


And, most scary, yes - Tommy Lee wears Ryan Seacrest clothing.

Last time I heard about Boone was when he did his metal album.
