Crystal Bowersox talked to Ryan about working long hours
Redbook has an interview with last season’s American Idol Runner Up Crystal Bowersox in which she talks briefly about why she went to Ryan for advice:
“It was hard during Idol because there were times when I didn’t even get to see Tony awake. Toward the end of the show, [my ex-boyfriend] big Tony and little Tony were living with me. I’d wake up early to leave for rehearsals, and my son would be sleeping. Then sometimes I wouldn’t get home until 10 to 15 hours later, and he’d already be in bed. It was hard, and I did go talk to Ryan [Seacrest] at one point because he works 24/7 and I knew he would understand. He gave me the best advice: He said the best thing I could ever do was work hard enough now so I could take care of my family. And it’s true. Sometimes you have to work really hard and make sacrifices so you can provide for the people you love.”
