Everyone thinks he is so tough. Everyone thinks he’s this mean guy and this over confident guy, but really there is a soft spot for all you women out there. He’s like a big teddy bear.
James Durbin interview
Seacrest interviews Durbin during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about his music video for Love Me Bad.
We actually had to postpone the recording, because my voice gave out. My producer wouldn’t let me record the song. So, that was pretty funny, I’m like ‘Come on man, I can do this song, I swear,’ he said, ‘No You’ve had enough, man.
Freida Pinto interview
Seacrst interviews Pinto during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about her role in the film Immortals.
I play the oracle princess Phaedra, who has the power to see the future.

Adam Sandler interview
Seacrest interviews Sandler during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about dressing up as a woman for his role in the film Jack And Jill.
The bra digging into the back and the eyelashes were the pain in the butt the most. I shaved them up nice and made them pretty for Pacino. He’s a really funny guy and he just is a really cool guy to hang out with. He looked cool, he’s in a leather jacket, he looks like Al Pacino. I walk out dressed as a woman, considering how ugly I looked, it was weird.
Kellan Lutz interview
Seacrest interviews Lutz during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about he prepared for his role in the film Immortals.
They would bring us small portions of chicken or kale or cashews, just really high in protein and good fats. Then we had an gym open 24/7. So, we could go sweat it out, and then go do our scene. I saw a screening of it [Immortals], and I loved it. I love action movies, and I love Greek mythology. Working on this, and seeing it on the screen was great. It’s very action packed, and it’s just such an original story that you kind of get lost in, and you want to know what happens next.
Hope Solo interview
Seacrest interviews Solo during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about being on Dancing With The Stars.
It’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. I mean, I feel so vulnerable. I’m out there for the world to see, being judged every Monday night. The competition that I come from, you have a winner, you have a loser. It’s clear-cut and dry.
Patti Stanger interview
Seacrest interviews Stanger during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about why she thinks everyone should duty date if you haven’t dated in a long time.
Sometimes it is not the guy or the girl you want, but it’s going on a date. It’s being appreciative that someone is buying you dinner. It’s practicing flirting and he may end up being the guy in the end. And it is definitely not necessary to reveal to your date that it is a “practice” date. The key is to date a pair and a spare. You should always have three at the same time.
Derek Hough interview
Seacrest interviews Hough during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about who he thinks will win Dancing With The Stars.
I definitely think that J.R. [Martinez] has really been a front runner all season, and he has done such a great job. So, I definitely think he’ll be in there. Hopefully Ricki [Lake] and I will be there. In the past seasons that I’ve won, I’ve felt more pressure to win, but with this season I don’t really feel that pressure. I feel like Ricki has accomplished so much already. She’s lost like 20 pounds, she’s healthy, she’s doing great, she’s learning dances. I feel like whatever the outcome, I think it is going to be a successful season either way.
David Beckham interview
Seacrest interviews Beckham during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about welcoming his new daughter Harper to the family.
So beautiful. Having a little girl in the house with Victoria is a whole different vibe now. She’s so chilled. Be a little more tender with a little girl. She’s so feminine! I’ve never had that before obviously with three boys. Everything she does is feminine. Her little noises. The way that she drinks her bottle. The way that she moves her hand. The way that she smiles.
Jennifer Lopez interview

I was really excited, because I haven’t seen anyone in awhile. We showed up at the same time and we both had black and red on, it looked like planned it out.” So, will these two be working together again? Nothing in the works, but maybe one day. I mean, something different, because we both know each other, we are comfortable, so that’s always nice.
Redfoo interview
Seacrest interviews Redfoo during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about the making of his single Sexy And I Know It.
A friend of ours came up with the idea of I’m Sexy And I Know It. When you hear it you just know that could be the biggest phrases in the world if it’s done right. We worked on that song for like four or five months.
Travie McCoy interview
Seacrest interviews McCoy during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about being number 1 on American Top 40.
We kind of knew we had something special with ‘Stereo Hearts,‘ but it’s really taken off! I’m still trying to catch up with everything. When Adam [Levine] cut his vocals I was blown away with take after take. Everything was so effortless for him. When magic like that happens you let do it’s own thing. Songs About Jane‘ came out was around the time we got signed, and went in to make our first record. We actually used ‘Songs About Jane‘ as a reference of what we wanted in terms of sound. So we’ve definitely been huge fans. When management asked us years ago who we wanted to collaborate with we said, ‘Adam from Maroon 5.’ It’s crazy how its come full circle.
Ricki Lake interview
Seacrest interviews Lake during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about who she thinks will win this season of Dancing With The Stars.
J.R. [Martinez] is going to win. I feel like I won already and I resigned to take second or third and that will be just fine.
Michelle Williams interview
Seacrest interviews Williams during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about how she gained weight for her role in the film My Week with Marilyn.
Believe me, if I could gain weight and get Marilyn Monroe’s body I would have done that a long time ago. Unfortunately, it doesn’t distribute that way for me. I added more of where I could, and I never looked at a scale. It was more of a feeling. “Do I feel like I’m filling out the clothes? Is this adding to my ‘wiggle?
Jackson Rathbone interview
Seacrest interviews Rathbone during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about co-staring in the film The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1.
People cry at weddings! It’s the nature of the beast. Finally, we get to see these two characters that we all fell in love with, Bella & Edward, tie the knot and it’s very exciting. I think most people were really excited by the honeymoon scene!
Adam Shankman interview
Seacrest interviews Shankman during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about getting Tom Cruise to act in his film Rock Of Ages and his version of The Nutcracker.
He [Cruise] was grinning ear to ear. He [Cruise] just said ‘I’ve never seen a movie like this before.
It’s kind of like an ‘Alice in Wonderland’ Gothic retelling of “The Nutcracker” story and it’s not the ballet. We are going back to the original story of it.
Russell Brand interview
Seacrest interviews Brand during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about whats next for him in his career.
Next year I’m spending some time with the Mrs., then I’m doing a movie. It’s a serious movie. It’s from Diablo Cody, the Oscar winning writer of Juno, she’s written and directed it. I’m very excited about it. I trained as a serious actor so I did Shakespeare back in England. But you know me I like ‘mucking’ around so when it starts I might want to do a joke.
Mac Lethal interview
Seacrest interviews Lethal during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about how he came up with The Pancake Rap parody of Christ Brown’s Look At Me Now.
I asked my fans on Facebook what they would like to see, and they picked that beat. I decided to give it an interesting spin so I thought of ‘Cook With Me Now’ just to change it. I didn’t want to do a Weird Al Yankovic, no disrespect, I just didn’t want to say ‘Cook With Me Now’ I wanted to actually be cooking, because I can cook rather well. So, I picked something really easy to cook, and shot it. It took about 16 takes. It would be two pancakes per take. There was a stack of about 32 pancakes.” Mac has been under the public radar for almost a decade, but past few years have gone rather well. He even encourages that other YouTube performers are able to.
Willow Smith interview
Seacrest interviews Smith during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about working with Nicki Minaj on her single Fire Ball.
Nicki Minaj is an absolutely an amazing person. She has so much energy, and working with her was like just [a] spark. I think that she [Nicki Minaj] is a Rhinestone Teddy Bear.
