Searches for “Ryan Seacrest” over the last month

The tallest peak on the graph falls around the American Idol finale, with searches about the finale and Ryan’s comments to Simon Cowell, with the lesser peak to its left falling just after Wango Tango, the Shrek Forever After press conference, a wave of speculation about Ryan and Julianne Hough, and reports of Ryan suggesting Justin Bieber as a replacement for Simon Cowell. The increase at the end of the graph relates to new speculation about Ryan and Julianne Hough, and his presence in Nashville this weekend.
Rising “Ryan Seacrest”-related searches this month

The Top 40, Ryan’s radio show, and Ryan’s height, have been popular searches in previous months but are rising relatively as searches for American Idol reduce. Who Ryan is dating has been a regular search topic, but the specific question of whether Ryan is dating Julianne Hough is on the increase.
Canada and the United States have made the most searches, with the United Kingdom a long way behind but searching enough to register. Google has categorised the majority of searches for Ryan Seacrest as relating to Entertainment.
Over the last 30 days, we have seen a similar increase in searches for Julianne Hough on this website. Other notable increases in our internal site searches are Ryan’s stomach, diet, trainer, detox, legs, skinny body and juices (there’s a definite theme here … Ryan’s summer body campaign seems to be working!); is Ryan going to do Eclipse readings; Christopher Bailey and Burberry; Kathy Griffin on Ryan’s radio show; On-Air with Ryan Seacrest’s Malaysian launch, and Ellen’s homework topics.
