Inside I am cringing that my kid wants to look like Ryan Seacrest, and also, simultaneously, I am thinking, "This haircut is awesome!"
So, Ryan, if you ever read this, just know and understand, that I think you are the absolute X factor to the American Idol mix! You are the Dick Clark of our generation and the 100 percent best live television personality in the last 100 years!

I guess there could be worse role models out there... Like SIMON! (Although, I have never disagreed with anything Simon has ever said!)
So, Ryan, keep up the good work! I am already looking forward to next season!
