Ryan Seacrest Expands Clear Channel Radio Relationship with New Venture and Continued Partnership
New Daily Radio Program Hosted by Seacrest Goes National with Multiplatform Distribution
Renews Contract with 102.7 KIIS-FM and Premiere Radio Network
SAN ANTONIO, February 28, 2008 – Clear Channel Radio and Ryan Seacrest announced today they are partnering to bring a new entertainment news program to radio audiences nationally. The new three-hour syndicated program, On Air with Ryan Seacrest, is set to launch this spring and will be broadcast live from E! Studios in Hollywood. The program will focus on all aspects of the entertainment industry, highlighting top talent from the worlds of music, film and television, and will be available for air daily, between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. local time. Seacrest and Clear Channel Radio will develop original content for the program for national and international distribution across audio, video and online platforms. It is a multi-platform deal in which Seacrest develops on-air content, hosts the program, distributes some elements across other platforms, and provides a portion of integrated advertising options. This new venture, and continued partnership, further solidifies Seacrest’s position as the ultimate resource for pop culture and entertainment.
In conjunction with the new deal, there will be a re-launch of RyanSeacrest.com tied specifically to the new national program. It will be the one universal place for listeners of all affiliates to interact and connect with the daily show, and will become their source for daily entertainment and lifestyle news. They will also be able to view live, streamlined videos and photos, as well as participate in social networking. All content will be controlled by Ryan Seacrest Productions (RSP).
Additionally, Seacrest has renewed deals to continue as host of American Top 40 with Ryan Seacrest, which is nationally syndicated by Premiere Radio Networks, and On Air with Ryan Seacrest, his top-rated daily radio program which airs from 5:00 -10:00 a.m. PT on Clear Channel Radio’s 102.7 KIIS-FM in Los Angeles.
“Ryan has taken American Top 40 to new heights, and we can’t wait to hear what else he will bring to the show as he continues as host,” said Charlie Rahilly, President of Premiere Radio Networks. “Ryan’s talent and motivation are recognized industry-wide, and without a doubt, drive his success!”

Re: monica – Wrong!!!

I cant stand ryan seacrest…he sucks at interviewing!
Okay, that was WAY too much to read even for me. I love to read, but damn!! Anyways, I really like Ryan. He's a wholesome entertainer, and I think he's going to be the next Dick Clark…just watch!
Uno!
first!
My god…..who actually likes this guy?????
I can't watch any show that he is on.
Sooooooooooooooooooooo Annoying!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am SOOOOOOOOOO excited! I tell my husband every day that is the ONLY thing I miss about living in LA! Yippee!!!
Ryan takes it up the ass.
That.Is.A.Fact.
first!!
wow
Just what do executives see in him? Is he a cocksucker?
Cool….. Hopefully he will help break musicians such as LEVAR THOMAS…
AWESOME! I'm always jealous that I can't hear him here in Miami. WoOhOo!
I hate this pansy-ass oompa loompa
Hey Perez, can I trade some nude pics for some free advertising?
You should know better fat boy!
You're the one poisoning america, FATASS!!! For every 1 fan that you have……He has a 1000!!! Get over yourself!!! You're a nobody compared to him!
Levar Thomas is AMAZING! Perez you should feature him!!!
Ryan is amazing. I adore him. So glad he's doing so well atm. This is major for him…i hope it's a big success. No doubt it will be!
PEREZ you should showcase Levar Thomas. GOOGLE him and check him music out!
RYAN SEACREST IS A BAFOON, I CAN'T STAND THIS COCK SUCKING FAG, HE'S SO ANNOYING!
His daytime entertainment TV show tanked. What makes them think that this will be as successful ?
lolo
YOU'VE GOT that RIGHT. Ryan is a hard worker. Perez is a joker. Perez is a jizzjuicer. His head is sooooooooo big cause it's full of JIZZJUICE.
P.S. if you don't know what jizzjuice is……ask your mother or father.
Not a proffessional interviewer on the red carpet at the Oscars what so ever. No wonder Simon constantly points out Seacrest's ridiculous behavior on American Idol.
He has earned it, even though he is an obnoxious douchebag
Not a professional interviewer on the red carpet at the Oscars what so ever. No wonder Simon constantly points out Seacrest's ridiculous behavior on American Idol.
FUCK YOU PEREZ YOU STUPID KUNT
Perez… considering you are overexposed to the Nth degree with a book, a deal for breaking recording artists, and a tv show, one would not expect you to be such a bitch about him trying to get his piece. not that i like him, but girlfriend slow your roll.
I really can't stand this guy. now the rest of the world gets to suffer.
perez, you're a jealous fat bitch. Ryan is where he is at because he works his ass off. Everything he has is contributed to endless hard work.
I am loving him snubbing Simon Cowell as he thanks the judges on American Idol every night. It must piss Cowell off no end when he's not mentioned….
Gotta admit…he is a bit of a butt, BUT I listened to him when he had the JoBros on, and he amused me. I would listen. He may not be the brightest, but he is becoming a fixture I am comfortable with.
Seacrest blows my mind. I dont know ANYONE, and I mean ANYONE!! who likes him. And yet he is everywhere.
What the fuck is a closet fag like him doing hosting the Superbowl?!?!
It is truly bizare.
And his red carpethosting, where he aksed one actress if she will breastfeed and then holding another actresses purse over his crotch area was ridiculous.
I bet Dunkleman is just about sick of hearing it.
Perez and Seacrest should be the new powerhouse couple of Hollywood and build the ultimate MEDIA EMPIRE!
oh sweet meat, don't despair. you are SO much more than that little closeted mo……just keep paying your dues, and remember, good things cum to those that wait!!!
He's great. I am a closet Ryan Seacrest fan and i think he will do well.
I loved last night on Idol
Seacrest "High heels and blue dresses are not my thing"
Simon "That's not exactly true!"
LOL LOL
he sucks!!!!
ugh - why have we all not died yet from Ryan Seacrest poisoning.
I LOVE him…he's HOT, SMART, MOTIVATED, TALENTED, and UNIQUE. Perez with time and hope you will get there too! I mean, come on, who else starts a freakin' blog and ends up like you have? Knowing all the stars, hitting the great parties, hosting, and, and, and…LOL.
dont be jealous . . . he's just much more talented then you.
He was Merv Griffin's butt buddy to get all of his work. He has no talent except sleeping with old guys and sucking saggy balls!
If can please, take the time to register and vote for me Danielle as Philly's Hottest http://photos.wmmr.com/gallery/album01?page=6
why does cRyin' SeaCrust look like an oompa loompa?
I stopped listening to KIIS-FM in Los Angeles when he took over the morning drive time show. He is the most boring radio host on the air!!
I hate Ryan Seacrest and I think most people do. He sucks on everything he does he ruined the pregame for the Super Bowl.
Re: bYTCH –
agreed
He is a no talent hack.
Here in NYC Seacrest is nothing. We have radio titans already, and it will be interesting to see how much buzz this lightweight can generate.
But nothing I've seen or heard has impressesd me yet.
I can't stand this moron. I just wish he would go away already.
Okay, this queen has got to go. Id sooner follow Britney into media battle. "C'mon girl! Back to the gay bar!"
Don't worry, Perez. You know your hard work is totally paying off and will even more as time goes on.
We should finally be happy for Ryan or people like Ryan. I know we looooove the dirt, but finally here's someone who has their shit together…like you Perez!…I listen to Ellen and him every morning, and I must admit, he's grown on me. Go Ryan!
i hate ryan…he's so annoying. why is he popular??
ughhhhhhhhhh he suckssssssssss
LOVE IT!
This person really thinks a lot of himself. HOw on earth he has managed to get this kind of popularity is way beyond me. Just goes to show, we are now in the age of HAVING NO TALENT GETS YOU FAMOUS AND MAKES U MILLIONS. WOT A FUCKING WORLD WE LIVE IN.
I don't get it!! He was awful on the red carpet. Bring Joan back please. He asks people the stupidest questions!!!! I just want to know who they have on what jewels why they picked there dress who is there eye candy. All the worthless information! Not if they are going to breast feed. WTFC?!!!
I'D GIVE THAT BOY THE RIDE OF HIS LIFE!!
It's obvious you're jealous of pretty much everything about him.
A.) He's attractive, you're not
B.) He makes money a respectable way, you don't
C.) He has a pleasant voice that people can listen to, no one can listen to yours for more than a a minute or two
Perez, I have been using the phrase 'golf claps' for a few months now, and this is the first time I have ever seen you use it in any of your posts. Don't steal my phrase. It's mine, biyatch.
He used to end with "Seacrest out!" Maybe it is time to knock him out and then we wonn't have to suffer through his cutesiness on Idol. Love it when Simon makes the come out of the closet remarks to him!!! If he goes on national radio, I will NOT be listening to him!
Re: Seacrest Sux – You're a fucking douche bag. Eat shit and die you nasty mother fucker. I hope you get herpes of the throat and choke to death.
Not that I am a fan of Seacrest, because good lord he is annoying. However I have mad respect for this man. He works damn hard.
He is why I prefer to watch extra over E news. He does not have to be on every damn show. He always sounds sick, maybe he should take a break. The world will go on without Ryan Seacrest
aww i luv ryan seacrest i think hes great i love him on E! =)
Hello ,my name is Ryan and I'm so perfect. DON'T LIKE RYAN AND HIS PERFECT LITTLE SELF. HE THINKS HE IS SO GOOD. HELL IF HE WERE A WOMEN HE WOULD RUN FOR MS. AMERICA. STRANGE THAT AMERICA LOVES THIS GUY.
Someone, needs to replace the aging Dick Clark. Ryan, is the voice of this generation. It's ok. He'll do a fine job.
Perez, you're hilarious.
Spare me. Ryan Seacrest is the most annoying son of a bitch in Hollywood. He is fake, obnoxious and transparent. He simply nauseates me. Maybe he disgusts me because he pretends that he's straight and doesn't accept his own sexuality. Oh wait a minute, that's not it. It's because he's a DOUCHEBAG.
Oh Please GOD no. He is as overplayed as "Unwritten". Give him the hook already. Narcissist freak. Yuk.
P.S. Perez, why don't you put these "First" freaks with no life in ascending order so we readers can get to the other opinions without having to weed through all their stupid shit.
Ryan will NEVER be Regis.
YAY I LOVE HiM =]
I gotta ask this question and maybe some of you guys know or maybe Perez knows but what is the deal with Seacrest and that Shana Wall chick. I mean the girl is gorgeous and finds him cute I mean is he with her or not?
OK this is what I know of Seacrest and Wall she was his girlfriend but they are broken up but they still remain friends yet I have friends who do know her very well and while Seacrest thinks she was always faithful to him it is known she has really cheated on him behind his back and while I love Seacrest and think he is a great guy his judgement in women isn't great!
Ryan is a complete dick. He talks down to everyone he is working with and acts like it is completely amusing. The thing is: he's not bright, he's not witty, he's definately not hot. He is just a turd that for whatever reason has been able to stay in the spotlight for 25 minutes.
