Ryan Seacrest is Richest Reality TV Host
He's in the money.
These are tough times in America. Unemployment is rampant, the stock market is in the toilet and celebrities are dropping like flies. But Ryan Seacrest? He's doing alright.
That's because the sandy-haired host of American Idol has just been given a raise - triple his current salary! Seacrest reportedly just signed a three year deal that will make him a cool $45 million, making him the highest paid host on reality television.
But that means he can only appear on primetime broadcast TV for American Idol's parent company, CKX. All his other projects, like producing Keeping up with the Kardashians and hosting for E!, are still a go.
So for all you Idol fans keeping score out there, that means at least one part of the show has been secured. The fates of the judges, especially the cantankerous Simon Cowell, are still up in the air.
