Get this: not only is Ryan Seacrest going to host The Emmys later this month, he actually might sing as well.
This is all part of Seacrest's plan for world domination by the year 2019. He's already hosting The Super Bowl and New Year's Eve coverage on ABC and doing various weekly radio shows and shows on E! He also waits tables three nights a week at the T.G.I. Fridays in Glendale, CA. How does the man do it?
The question is, will he actually do this? As host of a show where judges really nail contestants for not singing well, won't this just open him up to insults by Simon, Paula, Randy, former American Idol contestants, and most of America? Can you imagine the stuff that Simon will say if Seacrest was bad? Maybe it would be best if he sang as part of a chorus or group sing-a-along.
The Emmy Awards airs on FOX on September 16.

How does he do it? He's bland, inoffensive, and amusing to middle America.
He'll probably pull a Jay and steal the Tonight show from Conan...

i hope he doesn't sing. ryan is huge in southern california. i think he's doing too much though and he'll emotionally crack eventually. maybe he'll do a report about himself breaking down on e news or something? that would be funny to watch.
Ryan: "This just in...I am going completely bonkers! More about me after the break..."

Bob doesn't everyone make fun of him anyway? He's the butt of every girly man joke imaginable.

Come on, people!! It's obvious how he does it. He's not human. People don't seem to realize the easy way to get rid of him. Turn him off using the off switch in his back. Or sever his head from his body.

I'm waay over Ryan Seacrest and will not watch his face or listen to his show. The guy is dangerously close to overexposure and public backlash.

I refuse to watch American Idol since Ryan Seacrest referred to Paula's dog as a bitch on live television. He made some other inappropriate remarks during the last season of American Idol. He is no idol to me. Get rid of him Fox before American Idol suffers.
