Ryan Seacrest, came from normal beginnings, just like the rest of us. He was born in Dunwoody, Georgia, and he may have actually invented the meaning of school spirit. Hosting the morning announcements at Dunwoody High School,staff writer with the school paper, a member of the model UN club and captain of the Swim Team “The Wet Wildcats”
By the time his childhood dream of being a DJ was brought to fruition, he was no longer “wet behind the ears” (Insert groan for horrible pun here).
After he graduated high school, Ryan went on to attend the University of Georgia in the fall of 1993,and began hosting his first radio show at a local Athens station. He left UGA at the ripe old age of 19, and moved to Hollywood to continue his broadcasting career.
It wouldn’t take him too long to realize his dreams,though, no worries. Put those tissues away! Fast forward, to 2002! (No we still had no flying cars, BUT it would, however, be the beginning of ALL Seacrest, all the time) Ryan accepted the position as co-host of the hit reality TV series American Idol with comedian Brian Dunkleman.
We don’t know where Brian went, poor guy. I do remember thinking, especially during Ryan’s diatribes that seem to go on over the span of SEVERAL eternities (HINT HINT RYAN, CEASE TALKING INCESSANTLY EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. ‘TIS NOT CALLED RYAN SEACREST TALKS AND MAKES BAD JOKES IDOL), that Brian didn’t talk as much, and where is he now?
Where was I? Oh, yes, yes, the point at hand. Apparently someone, somewhere loves Ryan, at the Fox Network. He just signed a contract tying him to them for another three years, for a whopping $15 MILLION PER YEAR.
No need to rub your eyes, you read it right. $45 million dollars over the span of three years.
I talk. I talk incessantly. Admittedly my jokes are normally much wittier than his (though it may be the fault of his writers, we’ll pretend that’s the case). My question is, where is my $45 Million dollar contract,eh? Heck, I’d settle for a $45 dollar contract at this point. *Laughing*
And in the words I’d imagine Ryan would say “This is Ryan Seacrest, taking over the world one radio and television venue at a time. Seacrest OUT.”
I have but this to say. Good for you, Ryan. Good for you.
