Ryan Seacrest just announced that he’s producing a reality series on the lives of twentysomethings who live and work in Las Vegas. (I am assuming not just as strippers.)
The question over here at PopWatch seems to be, how much does this dude get paid to think up incredibly generic reality shows like this? And if it’s that easy, can we have a job, too? Here ya go: Let’s do a reality series about the twentysomethings who live and work on cruise ships! Now gimme a million dollars!
(P.S. Seacrest is calling his show Paradise City. Now… a reality show about Axl Rose, that I would watch. "Pigeons of Sh*t Metal" was bloody genius.)
Ryan Seacrest is a total cheese factory. I hope he can serve it up tastefully for the folks in Vegas. I have yet to understand his appeal.
What an original idea. Except the Real World was just set in Vegas acouple of years ago. And what a gin-drenched sleezy time that was.
Ryan is a pretty smart guy. I think he knows he’s got some small appeal that will last a bit and he’s cashing in on it.
Either that or he’s with some gazillionair media guru who porks him doggie style on a regular basis. I tend to think it’s the latter.
Such a shame that legalized Marijuana ballot initiative failed in Nevada, as it would have been AWESOME to see Seacrest getting stoned with the housemates/strippers on national tv.
Bad as he may be, at least he ain’t no Billy Bush…
I agree with you 100% Ep.
Billy Bush is dumber anbd more annoying than Paris Hilton. And that’s almost impossible.
El Sato,
Oooh, Billy Bush, Ryan Seacrest, Billy Bush, Ryan Seacrest…uuuh, you got me on that one.
That reality show was already on the air and it was called “The Real World: Las Vegas.” Do we really need to experience something like that again?
Ed2:
No one will ever mistake you for mister class.
This show was on MTV last week it was called True Life: I am moving to Las Vegas. It was about 59 minutes too long.
Ryan Seacrest is terrific. Think of every other reality show host minus Jeff, Phil, or Ty (Samantha Harris anyone?) and tell me that Ryan isn’t worth every penny on American Idol. And, he’s great on the Red carpet. So tired of all the E W staff writer snarksters who pick on Ryan – really could YOU think of some original material for your blog?
i’d take a “cheesy” ryan seacrest over a hollering, annoying, spiked-head ty pennington ANY DAY.
i don’t get what is so offensive about ryan. is he really all that different from the early dick clark?
Aww man, picking on celebs is what makes this fun. Much as we dis on easy prey like Billy Bush, Jessica Simpson, or even Fedex, I am sure that none of us actually harbor a personal hatred for any of these folks.
Seacrest doesn’t strike me as a bad person, but he’s just kinda fun to make fun of. Like Michael Bolton or Michael Jackson, or Madonna after the adoption fiasco.
As Jason Lee said in “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back”, the internet is for sharing porn and slandering others anonymously.
Since we don’t share porn on this site, we dis on our favorite famous (and infamous) celebs.
I would so watch Whitney’s cruise ships show. I even know someone who should be on it. Stuck for months at a time on a boat with the same people, maybe an ex, a rival, rotating forbidden fruit passengers…plus they’d have to plan events for the travelers, like Dirty Dancing-style variety shows.
When is he going to come out of the closet?
Hey Whitney…where is your flashback column this week? It is one of my favorite things to read on EW.com. Hope you haven’t discontinued it.
