Ryan Seacrest Missed His First Episode of "American Idol" Last Night
We're on Season 17 of"American Idol", and something happened last night that's NEVER happened before: RYAN SEACREST didn't host. He got sick and had to be replaced by BOBBY BONES, who's been serving as in-house mentor.
The episode was actually taped weeks ago.
Bobby started the show by saying, "Welcome to'American Idol'. Now, I am not Ryan Seacrest. I am Bobby Bones. Sadly, Ryan is sick and I look most like him so they asked me to fill his shoes tonight. Ryan, love you, buddy, hope you get better."
(Here's video.)
Ryan also sent Bobby a pair of Jordans as a thank you for filling those shoes.
