Before the American Top 40 Live on Fox this April 24. Ryan gets his Walk of Fame Star this Wednesday April 20. I work just a few blocks from Hollywood Highland so I might take an early lunch break to get a glimpse of the ceremony.

Or maybe I'll just revisit Casey Kasem’s star which is located at 6931 Hollywood Blvd. ;D

No disrespect intended, but don't people generally have to be famous for more than a few years before they get a star on the Walk of Fame? Three years ago, nobody had ever heard of Ryan Seacrest. Is there nobody else who deserves the honor?

Good for Ryan and his fans ;D

If they are all happy, then I am tickeled

[BrettVW]

I wonder if Casey will come to the ceremony and pay his respects.

[Alfred]

Brett, Yeah my thoughts exactly .

It would be cool to meet the man in person!

Actually according to Hollywood Chamber of Commerce the criteria are as ff:

1. Professional Achievement
2. Longevity of 5 years in the field of entertainment
3. Contribution to the community

Plus the sponsorship of $15,000 (which is subject to change –guess it depends from year to year or inflation or maybe how much a sponsor can dole out.)

Ryan had worked with Star 98.7 FM for 6 years and on his current radio stint Kiss-FM for over a year now which counts to his 7th year and counting….. (Remember he successfully booted out famous DJ Rick Dees on Kiss-FM as the morning man here.)

Not counting his 4th season appearance as the host of a little watched reality tv show- American Idol.

And another little known radio show-American Top 40. (Again successfully booted out another host!)

Aside from that he’s also the executive producer of a now cancelled shows On Air with Ryan Seacrest and a new (suppossedly yearly?) show AT40 Live on Fox. Which can be very lucrative! Not to mention a ga-zillion commercials in Print, Radio, TV and on the Net which in the long run could translate to millions of $$$$$.

E! said it best when they voted him as one of the “20 Young Guns Under 30 Who Hold Hollywood’s Future In Their Hands”

Yes, I agree with Paul, as long as everybody's happy, then I'm also tickled ;D

Looks like Everybody ( or should I say every "Nobody" ) can get a star these days .....
Well I should order mine soon ........

Thank god it's really far from Casey's star, so I should not fall over it accidentally.
So if everybody is happy with this, I can live with it too.

Just wondering how good the special "vitamins" within the Kitchin' can really work.
Oh my god: Did I miss-spell Kitchen ?? )

I saw about 10 seconds of coverage of Ryan getting his star the other day on TV....and they showed about 1/2 second of the group of people unveiling the star - and I swear one of them was Casey. Was it, or was my mind playing tricks on me on the 1/2 second of footage I saw.
