After 12 Years Of Hosting American Idol,This Season Will Be Ryan Seacrest Last?!

April 19, 2014

Noooooo! Ryan has been hosting American idol for 12 years now and according to reports by radaronline,it will be his last;
‘He’s lost the passion for it,’ an insider told Radar Online.
‘[Seacrest] desperately wants to do different things at this point in his career, like produce the Oscars and start developing more of his original ideas.’

The scoop come two months after a Fox network executive admitted that American Idol was ‘winding down’ due to the ratings going down 26 percent from last season.

That same month, Fox cancelled its other talent competition show The X Factor after only three seasons.

‘Idol is holding him back right now,’ the source said.

‘But it’s also the most money he’s ever been paid for anything, so he has to be a politician about it.

The Emmy-winning producer is clearly not short on gigs either what with his KIIS-FM radio show, E! News, Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, and various TV shows.

This year alone, Ryan produced the pilot for ABC’s Mixology, which air Wednesdays, and he created the pilot for Fox’s I Wanna Marry ‘Harry’ – premiering May 27.

‘Ryan’s reduced role in this year’s Emmys red carpet coverage is a clear move toward a life that involves less hosting and more producing,’ the insider said.

‘He wants to transition to behind the scenes more, and is getting fed up with the “interviewing people” part of his job, when his heart is really in the work he does as a producer.’

The powerful presenter hosted and produced the Live from the Red Carpet coverage for the Academy Awards, Grammys, and Golden Globes.

*sigh* Anyways,i won’t lie to you,i stopped watching the show when Mariah and Nicki became judges. Although J’lo is back,i just lost that interest. Maybe is a good step for Ryan, but not for American idol. Who does it better than Ryan?
