JUL 13, 2009 AT 05:35 PM
Well, Ryan Seacrest sure isn't hurting for money or things to keep him busy these days. The Hollywood entrepeneur has just signed on for three more seasons of American Idol...
He also took to his Twitter account to tell fans of the show that they won't be disappointed in upcoming seasons...all their favorites will be coming back.
Lots of conversations going on behind the scenes but I fully expect you will see the whole team next year.
The contract is estimated at... wait for it... $45 million.
Holy Hey Now!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is Ryan worth the money? Would American Idol be the same without him?

Makes me wonder how much this whole "American Idol" gig is worth! You gotta figure that Simon Cowell's salary is about the same if not more than Seacrest's. Not to mention Paula, Randy and Kara who most likely gets paid the least. That is hundreds of millions ritgh there. How much does it cost for s 30 second commercial spot!
The dollar figures amaze me in this whole thing.
The husband and I argued because I say Ryan Seacrest is the new Dick Clark and he says that the title for that goes to Carson Cressley (has been)

I like Ryan on the show but I don't think he has as much an influence as the judges. Like I can't imagine the show without Simon, Randy, or Paula. But people seemed to have a lot of negative feedback to Kara being added to the judges panel so maybe changing Ryan would cause quite a ruffle too. I suppose it goes with the saying 'if it ain't broke don't fix it'.
WHAT A DOUCHE! HE IS SUCH A WHEEZLE!

Don't care for him and he's overpriced! :P
Frankly, I don't think anyone is worth that kind of money. Unless you're a scientist curing cancer and disease or doing some other greatness for the world.

That show has GOT to die some time. It's getting wayyy to old. Too repetitive.

Couldn't happen to anyone more mediocre and milquetoast. Seriously, he's not bright, not funny, he doesn't add that extra sparkle to anything - I wonder who he f***s or blows and why he doesn't come out already. And like the Anon a few comments above me stated, he hasn't done anything to advance society or science.

Oh, come on, tell us how you really feel! ;)
I like the show -- namely the auditions -- but my heart wouldn't be broken if Ryan left. The only one I care about is Simon.

A big waste of money, and a guaranteed three more years I won't watch the show.
