Good news “American Idol” fans, Ryan Seacrest will be back to host the next season.
Friday, ABC shared he’d be returning to the hit show following rumors that he was to quit the show after his name didn’t appear on an announcement regarding the returning judges for the upcoming season.
According to USA Today, Seacrest has been with the franchise since its start on Fox in 2002 and has remained the host when the show switched over to ABC Networks last year. He’ll return to “Idol” alongside judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, and Luke Bryan, and in-house mentor Bobby Bones.
“American Idol has been my home for 17 seasons and I can’t wait to return to the stage,” said Seacrest. “It’s the greatest gift to be able to play a part in discovering new talent with a franchise that has been such a relevant part of American culture for so many years.”
“Since the very beginning everyone who has ever stepped onto the American Idol stage has done so with Ryan Seacrest’s support and guidance,” executive producers Eli Holzman and Aaron Saidman shared on behalf of Industrial Media’s 19 Entertainment. “We are lucky to call him our partner and proud to call him our friend. We are thrilled that the next American Idol can rely on Ryan guiding them along their way to stardom.”
