American Idol's
Ryan Seacrest
On The Larry King Show!
05-15-08
Last night Ryan Seacrest appeared on the Larry King Show, both to plug the upcoming Finale on American Idol and apparently to plug his productions!
There were many one-line questions thrown at Ryan by Larry so we'll just blog about a few:
Ryan gave quick answers on his opinions of the Top Three Idols. He did compliment Syesha on how she did grow in the competition, unlike others...
Any surprises for the 2 hr Finale next week? - "It's a Live Circus!"
Regarding taping segments - "I'm awful at taping things!" He'd rather do it live.
Vote totals? - Are conducted "by independent firm for tabulation".
Why are vote totals secret? -"Decision at the lawyers."
Worried about competition like Dancing With The Star? - "Dancing is universal. Singing is universal."
He doesn't think the American Idol Judges will be replaced, just need to adjust the mechanics.
Says Simon couldn't host the show... and gave multiple reasons!
Re: Paula's confusion - A curve ball was thrown at the judges. Last minute decision to have them comment on Round 1 that week.
Why doesn't Simon get as many boos this year? Ryan says he asks the audience pre-show not to boo!
Ryan vs Simon - "The cheap shots are real!"
Who's the winner next week in David vs David -"David will win", ha!
Ryan currently does the following and more:
8 Ryan Seacrest Restuarants, AT40, E! Channel Specials, On-Air with Ryan Seacrest, Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve, Producing Denise Richard's new reality show, American Idol...
And more! But NOT anything for CNN (re: rumours of his taking Larry King's spot).
If Ryan hadn't gotten into broadcasting he would been a chef!
What's next for Ryan? - Continue to build Ryan Seacrest Productions with more shows!
Show Note: AFTER the Results show for the winner of American Idol, the winner and finalists will be on the Larry King Show next Friday May 23rd! !
