On Air with Ryan Seacrest 2009-03-13
Anderson Cooper was back for an interview, and also read out one of the sleaze sections, which was very funny. Ryan joked about Anderson being in the building to audition for E!, which Anderson said he’d prepared for by NOT reading any newspapers. I hope Ryan follows through with his offer to get him doing E! News, that would be hilarious. These two are almost as funny together as Ryan and Simon Cowell. Their exchange about going to the gym was cute:
AC: Clearly you’re not going to the gym these days … did you stop that?
RS: Clearly your vision’s gone bad!
Ryan’s still talking about twitter, and read out a TMI tweet from Joel McHale. Ryan said he’s addicted, but I’m not seeing that. Some of his staff appear to be addicted though looking at the rate of messages coming through on my KIIS stalker feed as I’m typing this! They talked a little about twitter and Ryan asked Joel whether he likes any of the shows he makes fun of, how The Soup comes together, and whether he was leaving E! soon. Joel said he signed an 11-year contract ;-) A call came in from Kanye west who talked to Ryan about his performance on this week’s American Idol results show, and how his pants didn’t fall off!
Breaking news: Harvey Levin from TMZ was on talking to Ryan about the arrest and charges against the men who may have had a hand in Anna Nicole Smith’s death two years ago. Investigation been going on for a year and now Howard Stern and two doctors arrested and charged with a total of eight felonies for giving her prescriptions.
Ryan asks: if you think you’ve met your soul mate and they loathe you, can that be turned around? What if they can’t stand you? A caller’s wife had hated him the first time they met, he said ‘she wanted to pick up a chair and hit him with it’, but he persisted and they have been married since 1976.
