Jewish-American
Seacrest is Jewish? Where is the reference for this? I've never seen or read anything which referred to Seacrest as Jewish.
A citation is needed Manic Hispanic 03:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
I think his name is John Aufenstein. 63.130.195.208 20:18, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Why should Aufenstein be Jewish? Many Germans have "Stein" as their surname or part of their surname without being Jewish. In fact, Aufenstein is the name of a castle in the Austrian Tirol, which had a noble family of the same name as it's Lord. That family seems though to be long extinct.
Trivial
According to fellow show host and judge, Simon Cowell, Ryan takes the longest to have his makeup put on. Simon stated on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno that Ryan takes a total of 10 hours to put on his makeup, longer than any other of the hosts of the show. -- AllyUnion (talk) 04:21, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Fashion Designer
The Category "American Fashion Designers" is included on the page, but I see no reference to a fashion design career in the article.
The last sentence mentions his own line of designer clothes, the R Line. Chantessy 01:20, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Swiss Americans?
Does anyone have a source that he's of significant Swiss descent? I couldn't find anything online. JackO'Lantern 18:21, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Edit War
Demiurge and GIPU "63.164.145.85", I axsk that you cease your little edit war before you both break the "three edit rule". I've editted the article, myself, for proper use of brackets, linking and NPOV. It's fine now, too me, and I hope you two take and break and grow up. BTW, "Blocked" or not "63.164.145.85" clearly has editted the article—so the redundant summary is really lame.—Then again, I've found the blocking system has a few hole in it, myself. Ace Class Shadow 22:46, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
Rumors
I have added a section about the gay rumors to the article. While it is not uncommon for male celebrities to be rumored as gay, there are a few isolated celebrities for whom the rumors are more than just "typical gossip". One of these cases would be Tom Cruise. I feel Seacrest falls into that category as well based on the overwhelming amount of rumor and insinuation - particularly from other celebrities. I hesitated for well over a year before adding something to this article, but after Teri Hatcher's recent comments on Letterman, I think it was time to add a section. Hatcher has made comments in various media outlets insinuated that Seacrest intentionally used her to be photographed publicly with her in order to skirt off gay rumors.
While my phrasing may not be ideal, please do not remove the section en toto unless you have a good reason. Pacian 20:17, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
- An anonymous user has already once deleted this section without noting a reason here on the talk page. I have reverted. Pacian 03:04, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Can you blame him? It's pretty stupid. How are celebrities (not even close friends, to my knowledge) saying/joking he's gay anymore valid than the average joe/jane? Ooh! Two women who barely know him say their "gayder" went off! (In a comedic fashion and media, no less.) Big woop! Not to mention the fact that this is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid or webzine. You wanna put it there? No one said anything. Don't bother giving us updates—even heard of an edit summary? Not everything is worth mentioning on the talk page, especially that GIPU's reasoning—or expect us to care. BTW, just for the record, Tom Cruise and his article are horrible examples. Being rumored to be gay and being Tom Cruise are completely different things.
- In fact, you know what? I'm removing it myself. It was horribly written (half-ass, as they say) and cannot be considered neutral, intelligent or encyclopedic. ACS (Wikipedian) 03:19, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- Photographs were published of Teri Hatcher and Seacrest kissing. I believe this logically qualifies them as being close, at least in SOME fashion. It makes it more valid because the average joe/jane does not have a one on one personal experience with the subject. Your attitude and manner of commenting here was unacceptable. Please review [Writers Rules of Engagement]. It is impossible to take anything you have said here seriously if you are going to attack me on a personal level. You have just called me unintelligent, a half-ass writer...not acceptable. I have explained to you in great detail why the addition is relevent, encyclopedic and notable on your talk page. You have yet to explain why it is NOT THESE THINGS, you have just stated that it isn't. I am reverting the edit. If you revert again, we will be hitting the 3 edit rule. Pacian 19:27, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- As you have already proven yourself unable to act civilly, and as you seem to have a reputation for this, I have submitted this case to the Mediation Cabal. Any edits to the section while the mediator is considering the issue will be considered an act of vandalism. Pacian 19:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
- I was in a hurry. Give me a freaking break. Now...lessee. Seems you're taking fairly contructive criticism related to your addition—not you as a person—as an attack. Nice. Now, reading and considering what you wrote on my talk page, the point you are trying to make is clear and you might actually be producing some evidence. Thing is, you explain nothing about Teri's relationship to Ryan or what she would know. (though, from the feeling I got, the lady has problems and Ryan kinda pissed her off. Plus, considering the situation Ryan put Griffin in, she might be pissed, too, making both womenm biased.) Anyway, here's my enlighten, unbiased reader's view: Ryan might be making sad and ultimately poor attempts to appear heterosexual. However, the way the wrote the section didn't make this clear. In fact, you quite lierally said that the just because their stars they'd know with the ending sentence: "These and other comments from high-profile individuals lend more credence to the rumors (thus far unproven) than other celebrity 'gay rumors'".
- Now, had you explained the Teri thing even half as well as you did on my talk page, and changed the overal messsage from "celebrities know best" to "these women have experienced first hand possible indications that Ryan is a "closeted celebrity male".
- Then, rather than realize your mistake, you're claiming personal attacks and giving us a play-by-play of everything that'a happening in relation to your entry. I wasn't attacking you. I was, however, trying to explain that there's no need for you to log everything on this talk page. The section gets vandalized/removed? Fix it yourself and let it go. ": An anonymous user has already once deleted this section without noting a reason here on the talk page. I have reverted. Pacian 03:04, 14 May 2006 (UTC)" is a pointless entry. That, I'll admit, pissed me off and lead me to act.
- BTW, you still left "friend" misspelled as "firend". ACS (Wikipedian) 18:07, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- Well it would be good to put those "gay rumors" section in there after all. I mean Ryan Seacrest has had the biggest gay rumors more than most male celeberties, and one can only be put there if someone can "neutralize" the section to make it NPOV. As for me I think he is gay and he's using the St. Louis Cardinals and Teri Hatcher as a cover-up.
- The gay rumors section has been posted and remained unchanged for quite long enough now. I even added the quote from the magazine interview where he refutes such speculation; the section should now be removed per WP:BLP. - Gilliam 08:53, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Seacrest himself regularly vistis his profile to 'clean-up' any gay references. It's a neatness thing.
Photo
Since the photo was deleted, would anybody mind finding a new one? Mike 7 22:22, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

any edit that changes it lower is vandalism. User:Arual 21:22, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Place of birth?
anybody know his place of birth?
either atlanta or dunwoody
which one is it/?
Very first entry ever, please excuse any formatting errors. Dunwoody is a neighborhood of Atlanta, not a city in and of itself. For example, mail addressed to addresses in Dunwoody can use Atlanta or Dunwoody as the city without any problems. There has been talk recently of the area incorporating, but nothing has come of it yet. So both are reasonable, but Atlanta is probably the technically correct answer.

Sidewalk star
I removed
- One response, in May 2005, generated a substantial amount of media attention.[citation needed] An anonymous blogger using the pseudonym of "Assistant Atlas"<r ef>http://assistantatlas.blogspot.com</ref> offered a prize of $50 to anyone who could successfully defecate on Seacrest's Hollywood Walk of Fame star.<r ef>http://celebrityjustice.warnerbros.com/news/0505/18c.html</ref>
In the absence of documentation of sufficient mainstream media attention, this is unencyclopedic, and the standard of proof it requires should be in line with WP:BLP for two reasons:
- The assertion that it belongs in WP is a negative assertion about a living person, in that it implies he is so out of step with his audience that anonymous harassment (including the offer to pay someone for an illegal act) matters.
- Documentation in the article, rather than on the talk page, is unnecessary and thus arguably constitutes abetting of the blogger by informing an unnecessarily wide audience how to get the details.
BTW, i couldn't load the plugin needed for seeing anything at the Warner URL, and my Google
- search - "ryan seacrest" site:celebrityjustice.warnerbros.com - did not match any documents. And the blog sub-site has hundreds of entries; unless it's really ad-spam, the subsite-wide URL is abusive, and invalid as a ref.

early tv history
I just fund something that said seacrest worked as a reporter for ktvu channel 2 news in san francisco. heres the link: http://www.ktvu.com/idol/10707204/detail.html —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.183.27.204 (talk) 00:10, 21 February 2007 (UTC).
John Renold Aufenstein
It would appear that the only references for this as an alternate name are Wikipedia and IMDB. Not great sources. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 10:19, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- I agree. I think if there is no reference to this 'born' name anywhere else then it shouldn't be included. Gillian416 22:06, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
wikipedia isn't a good source of information? then what's the point? 63.136.115.71 02:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
I tried adding knowingly false information on IMDb on Ryan Seacrest, info did not go through. They verify their information. Mghabmw 00:55, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Seacrest & Cooper Pic Caption
The picture caption with Seacrest and Anderson Cooper says he is "interviewing" Cooper. It looks more like a transition to Anderson Cooper 360, Cooper's show on CNN after Larry King Live. I'm pretty sure of this but I wanted to get a little more confirmation before changing it. --Doctorcherokee 01:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
Vandalism
Could somebody please lock this page for new and unregistered users. I would but I don’t know how. There is a lot of vandalized content at the end of the page as well as some false information. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Boulder1990 (talk • contribs) 19:25, 18 March 2007 (UTC).
- I think the page may have been protected for a few days but it is not anymore. I have the page on my watchlist for vandalism and every single day an unregistered user adds something along the lines of "is gay" or "is a homo" that I or someone else has to go in and correct. Is this grounds for protection? I will look into it myself but if anyone else knows, feel free to send me a message regarding how to best get the page protected. Thanks! Gillian416 19:26, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- I have semi-protected the page for the next few days. Michael 19:30, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
Height issue
Seacrest is lying if he says he is 5 foot 9. According to imdb http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1101562/bio Simon Cowell is 5 foot 9. If you look at the following picture http://www.nickkcapress.com/2005KCA/images/kca/fullsize/52580720.jpg with Cowell and Seacrest, Cowell looks about 4 inches taller than Ryan. Cowell is definately not over 5 foot 9. He looks short on tv. Why is Seacrest making such a big deal out of this anyway. We don't care how tall you are man!!!!!!! If Wikipedia wants to be accurate they need to put down official height of 5 foot 7 or 6. Just my opinion.
imdb
imdb actually looks into information before updating, it's not a wikipedia style user edit. is ArglebargleIV ryan seacrest himself? 65.1.17.165 14:28, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
(1) IMDB doesn't have a lot of staffers to look into everything that is posted there. See the IMDB article. The Aufenstein thing appears and disappears on Seacrest's page regularly. The only other references to Seacrest as Aufenstein seem to be either copies of older versions of the Seacrest page and references to the same.
(2) No, I am definitely NOT Ryan Seacrest, although I wouldn't mind having his money. I'm sure that Seacrest has much better things to do that spend a couple hours each day looking through a article watchlist and patrolling new pages.
(3) For the Aufenstein reference to stay, find a reliable and verifiable source for it. Wikipedia policy in general requires it, Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy demands it. That's all. If that's his birth name, and it can be properly sourced and referenced, nobody's going to have a problem with it. Until then, it shouldn't be there. -- ArglebargleIV 17:24, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
Rudi and the Gays
I heard read that Ryan Seacrest starred on the popular non-metal tv show Rudi and the Gays in the 1980s. It sounded true. It should be in the article if he really spent 13 years of his life on the show. --Charzar1 21:43, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- I've never heard of this show and could find no reference to it online aside from Simon Cowell's wikipedia page. And I'm not sure what a "non-metal tv show" means or how it "sounds true". Feel free to add it if you can find a source but it sounds like something completely made up. FilmFemme 22:29, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- There used to be a wikipedia page for Rudi and the Gays. I watched an episode of it once a few years ago. It was hilarious. Ryan Seacrest was definitely on it. I also heard that Jerry Seinfeld was a writer for the show. I also dont see what non-metal is supposed to mean. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.254.40.34 (talk) 23:17, 26 April 2007 (UTC).
The wikipedia page is back up now. Do you think we could use one of there sources for Ryan's page? Oh and by the way the article says nothing about Jerry Seinfield being a writer. What is non-metal?? Doddsworth 22:05, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Doddsworth, the wikipedia page is "back up" because you put it up. It is completely unreferenced and I actually don't believe a word of it. And no you cannot use other wikipedia pages as references (see WP:CITE for how to use citations.) The page has been nominated for deletion. FilmFemme 00:52, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Well, it's been deleted, so there you have it. --Haemo 07:20, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- The Rudy and the Gays page is back up and running. It is now under the name Rudi and the Gays and cites all of its information properly. I think now we can accurately put a section on this page for Rudy (or Rudi) and the Gays. --Charzar2 14:29, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- The "Rudie and the Gays" article is still made-up nonsense, the references are made-up nonsense, and it's marked for deletion. -- ArglebargleIV 14:59, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

- Part 2
Seacrest Out!
Anyone know why Seacrest, Out redirects here? The phrase is cropping up more and more, and while it's silly, it would be nice to at least explain in this article why Seacrest, Out redirects to the Ryan Seacrest article. The phrase is from his non-Idol TV and radio host days, when he would end his segment with "Seacrest Out!" I'm seeing it at the end of blog posts and such, along the lines of Kthxbye. JustinBaeder 04:56, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
I thought this might refer to the allegations his is homosexual. Is that fit to be discussed or referred to on here ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Doctor-Scrumpy (talk • contribs) 15:04, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
On My Watch Tonight
I've deleted the (looooong) paragraph about this. Until it can be properly sourced and written neutrally, it's got WP:BLP concerns. And the link to download the wsong in question is right out.
I'm going to take a shot this evening to see whether it can be sourced and whether it's notable, and try to rewrite it shorter. I'll put my suggested version here, and maybe we can discuss it? -- ArglebargleIV 01:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
This event apparently did happen, but as far as I can tell from some preliminary searches, all Seacrest was involved in this was that he didn't play the song. Relevance seems lacking to me. -- ArglebargleIV 02:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
I know that this event happen because I was there in Eastern North Carolina listening to the events surrounding Seacrest and that song. I listen to the radio show that had the conflict with Ryan Seacrest over the song. I just thought that I bring the conflict back by hitting his Wikipedia profile. I'm still trying to get "On my Watch Tonight" famous by hitting the big name person that was suppose to make it famous in the first play. I also wanted people to know that Seacrest may not be the lovable guy they think of by disrespecting the military by not playing that song which was a salute to them. Oh well there always Perez Hilton to give the dirt to and make "On my Watch Tonight" famous like the people Eastern North Carolina want it too.

- I don't know why this isn't in here, but I want someone to tell me that the second- it going in the article.
- There was a HUGE controversy with Ryan Seacrest and Mike Corrado. Corrado is a Marine that were serving in Iraq and wrote this song, "On My Watch Tonight" that was on a great album by the Mike Corrado Band. The local radio station 96.3 (based out of New Bern, NC) started playing the single on the air and it became the number one requested song. The morning show djs tried to get attention to this single because of it's overwhelming success, and tried to get Ryan Seacrest to play the song in his show. Ryan Seacrest gaffed them off. The morning show started an initiative to try to get the listeners of 96.3 to start calling his show and requesting the song, over and over, and that still didn't work. Apparently, during this time, Ryan Seacrest was overheard at a party talking bad about Marines because of this whole issue, and it was very ill-received (considering most people know a Marine in one way or another) and that brought even more heat to the issue. The DJs at 96.3 tried to raise $100,000 to buy a full page ad in the LA Times to tell this story to Hollywood, and they didn't raise enough money, so instead, they started this initiative that they dubbed, "Pay it Forward". They bought 1,000 copies of the album this song was on, gave them out with petitions, and asked listeners to listen to the cd, sign their name on the petition, and pass it on to a friend. The friend should repeat the process until 10 names are on the Petition and then send the cd and petition to the Oprah Winfrey show. The hope was that in some way, Oprah owns Seacrest or his show or something, and would help Corrado by making Ryan take back the bad things he said about Marines, and publicize this great song.
- The whole thing was huge news in the Camp Lejeune area. I did my due-diligence, listened to the cd, and passed it on to another person. I just remember it being such big news, and the word Seacrest being known as a four-letter-word. I can not believe that this is not on here. I can not find any more information that is a reliable source on the issue past the article written by the Jacksonville Daily News, which is no longer online, but quoted in it's entirety on The Mike Corrado Press Site. When this whole thing was going down, the radio stations in Coastal Carolina did a major reorganization and I don't know what happened to the DJs that were behind this initiative, because most of the morning shows changed in that area.
- I think this is extremely notable and should be on his article, at least in part. Seacrest is not an innocent by-stander, most Marines know that he has made anti-Marine statements in the past and his behavior of this whole thing did not help. I have an email in to one of the DJs that was involved in all this (Crystal Legends) and I am hoping to get better references before I write this section. Chexmix53 (talk) 20:22, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- See the section above this one. Here's a few potential problems :
- Are there sufficient reliable sources and references, or is it all hearsay?
- Would the above story be here to bash Seacrest or to publicize and promote the song? The first would probably not be allowed due to the biography of living persons policy, and the second wouldn't be allowed because Wikipedia isn't a promotional site.
- It appears that Seacrest's only involvement was to not play a song. The guideline on undue weight would seem to be relevant here.
- It's a relatively minor story, and would have to be shortened considerably to fit into the article (see undue weight above again). -- ArglebargleIV (talk) 20:52, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
- I understand your points, but I have a little bit more knowledge on this whole thing that you do right now. For instance,
- There is at least one reliable source (The Mike Corrado Press Site), which, yes, it is a fan site for the mike corrado band, but it is a press page that sites the entire article from the Jacksonville Daily News, and the article is no longer online on the JDnews website. Also, I am currently looking into getting more sources. I have an email into one of the djs that started this whole thing for more information and sources. I know this all happened, I just have to get sources for it because I know I can not just say, i was there when it happened.
- The store would not be there to bash Seacrest or promote the cd, band or single. It is something that happened and the whole things was centered around Ryan Seacrest. It is the reason that most military people don't respect him. Not having this in the article makes it un-biased because it is something true that happened, is notable and is just not being included because it may make him look bad.
- Seacrest's involvement stemmed beyond him not playing a song. Thousands of people from eastern Carolina, spouses from around the country and Marines stationed overseas were calling into his radio show requesting the song. It had to be the most requested song for weeks with all the Marines, dependents and family members calling, and he not only refused to play the song, but ignored the whole situation. Plus, he had before, and since made very hurtful comments about Marines in general.
- And it is not a minor story. I remember everyone talking about this thing for months in Jacksonville, which sounds like a small city, but it is home to the worlds largest Marine Corps base, plus Camp Geiger and MCAS New River.
- I understand your points, but I have a little bit more knowledge on this whole thing that you do right now. For instance,
- I believe that it does need to be addressed, not in the length that it was before, but at least one paragraph. I will write it, I am just waiting on that email. Chexmix53 (talk) 21:09, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

"Stalker"?
Please don't change the personal life section back to stalker. having the section title say "stalker" makes is sound like seacrest is a stalker. The article is about Secrest, not his stalker. Please allow the personal life section develop regarding his personal life by adding more personal life items.67.182.149.65 (talk) 23:11, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- Well, the first issue is the embedded note you added, that's YOUR message, it does not represent consensus of editors here, which is where such notes begin. Secondly, I find it curious that an IP with no previous history of editing here would know about embedded notes. Thirdly, a stalker does not reflect his entire personal life, and that heading is incorrect. Stalker should rightly be changed to "Stalker victim" or some such similar title to reflect that Seacrest is not a stalker, but was victimized by one. The personal life section as it pertains to factors in Seacrest's life will develop as it may, but coining a stalker report as his entire personal life is incorrect. I would suggest you read up on forming consensus and put it into practice, SRQ. Wildhartlivie (talk) 23:45, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- I do wonder if having a main section devoted to "Stalker victim" isn't giving undue weight to the issue (and the stalker). For example, the article on David Letterman, which involved a long term stalking and tragic ending, merits a subsection in his personal life and only two lines. I think the answer is to develop a section for personal life so that this one aspect doesn't dominate. SeaphotoTalk 16:56, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
- I agree, a line or two in the personal section should do. Having a section with stalker in it is very distracting in my opinion. --CrohnieGalTalk 19:06, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
- Don't you think that putting references to the stalker in the article which is supposed to be about the celebrity is EXACTLY what the stalker wants? I vote for a Delete. 82.45.146.29 (talk) 10:15, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

In researching this article I found this website which is virtually a mirror image of the article I originally started editing: http://www.starglimpse.com/celeb/ryan_seacrest. sigh... I am happy with the edits and categories so far today, better than those I made and that were deleted by "anonymous" editor yesterday. *Please* do nor delete or edit without further discussion here, especially since the chronology and changes made were plagiarized.

Please change Ryan's photo to a more current photo from 2014. Mackenzie1289 (talk) 05:30, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
Not done we don't appear to have a "more current photo" - the one in the infobox is May 2013 so it is not even 11 months old
The photos we do have are here If you have taken a more recent photo, and are prepared to release the copyright, please upload one to Wikimedia Commons. Please do not copy a photo from somewhere and pretend you own the copyright - these things are checked. - Arjayay (talk) 09:14, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
