Trey Songz interview

I actually met Nicki before either of us had the fame or success that we did down in Atlanta. And she told me she was a rapper and I was on my second album. She just had this look about her. You know, Nicki’s Nicki, she’s gorgeous. I’m looking at her like, ‘Damn, who is this beautiful girl?’ and she’s like, ‘No, I’m a rapper. This isn’t that.’

Kevin Hart interview
Seacrest interviews Hart during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about his fear of roller coasters.
Let me tell you why I’m afraid. I don’t like the fact that I’m confined, yet that I’m still a little loose. I’m so small, even though the thing clamps me down, when you’re going up and down, my body leans forward and it always feels like I’m about to come out. So the theory is I’m going to go on one of those loops and I’m going to fall out. Like I’m going to slip up under this thing and fall. If you look at that video, look at the way I’m holding on. My leg is wrapped around it it’s like a little kid. It’s a fear, Ryan. It’s bad.
Kesha interview
Seacrest interviews Kesha during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about her new boyfriend.
I do, not like physically covered in dirt, but I just like them to be beardy and long hair and look like a little homeless. I like guys who look like they don’t groom themselves. I’m not into guys who are very high-maintenance. I don’t want them to take longer to get ready than me.
Ed Sheeran interview
Seacrest interviews Sheeran during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about the artist he most wants to work with.
I went in with Timbaland just to kind of play him music and talk about stuff, but he was doing the [Justin] Timberlake and Jay Z albums at that time, so we didn’t get to make music. So I’d like to go in with him in the future.
Sam Smith interview

Every single song is revealing, I said way too much. I’ve had this realization the other week when I was driving around London [and] there’s pictures of my face everywhere with the word Lonely underneath. I kind of realized I’e really really opened myself up on this record.
Demi Lovato interview
Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about collaborating with Ed Sheeran.
I’ve been a huge, huge fan of his. I love his music, I love his album, so I covered his song and he saw it. And then he got in contact, and we were like, ‘We should write together, we should do something together.’ And then we ended up playing the same show at the Hollywood Bowl, so were like we have to do the song together. I was really really exited and super honored to do that with him because he’s just so talented.

America Ferrera interview

They’re all 20-year-olds. And it’s so cool to see animated characters grow up. I don’t think that’s happened before. Astrid is an awesome character. It’s just so great to see a female character in the middle of the action. I think that’s what we’re ready for. We’re sick of seeing girls sitting on the sidelines looking pretty and taking about boys. We’re ready for girls who kick butt!
Jack Black interview

It was kind of weird. Gabriel, who composed everything, I met with him two years ago and he’s like, ‘I want you to do this thing live with an orchestra.’ And of course I started shaking, but I thought I have two years, this guy is probably a flake. It will never happen and it happened.
Sam Smith interview
Seacrest interviews Smith during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about the meaning behind the song Stay With Me.
I think unlike a lot of men in the industry and in music, I’m willing to show that emotional side. That song is about the morning after a one-night stand and how you don’t want that person to leave even if you don’t fancy them, which I think everyone can relate to.
