Hey there, folks! So, Ryan Seacrest had what seemed like a smooth start to 2020, right? That is, until a little mishap happened on the January 7 episode of Live! With Kelly and Ryan. The charismatic TV host took a tumble off his chair during the show, and the way he handled it? Pure gold. He didn’t let it get him down, sharing a funny clip of the incident on Instagram with his signature humor.
Ryan's Witty Take on the Fall
Now, picture this: Ryan, trying to catch a balloon mid-air, ends up falling off his chair. Talk about unexpected twists! But our guy didn't miss a beat. With a playful caption, "First fumble of the new season. Hope I make the playoffs…” the 45-year-old TV star turned the awkward moment into pure comedy gold. Co-host Kelly Ripa was there, trying her best to prevent the fall, but even her quick reflexes couldn't stop Ryan from hitting the floor. Oof, that had to sting!
The Aftermath: Laughter and Relief
At first, the crew and Kelly were understandably worried. But Ryan, ever the professional, brushed it off with a laugh as he got back up. The On Air With Ryan Seacrest star didn’t miss a step. He grabbed that balloon triumphantly and declared, “I got it!” The audience erupted in cheers, showing their support for their favorite host.

Kelly's Light-Hearted Jabs
Once things settled down, Kelly couldn’t resist teasing Ryan a little. She joked that his leg might have been "badly hurt" and he just hadn’t realized it yet. “I know the adrenaline is coursing through you,” she said, “but I saw your leg do something very strange.” It was classic Kelly, turning a potentially awkward moment into a laugh-filled exchange.
But let’s not forget, this happened just days after Ryan rang in 2020 with cohost Lucy Hale on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve. As the clock struck midnight, he celebrated alongside K-pop sensations BTS, rapper Post Malone, and country singer Sam Hunt. Ryan posted on Instagram, “New year, new decade, and new opportunities to make it the best one yet.” He reminded everyone, “You got this! #Hello2020.”
A Look Back at Ryan's Career
Despite this minor mishap, Ryan’s career has been nothing short of remarkable. Just off the 2020 Golden Globes, he expressed interest in reuniting with fellow American Idol judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, and Randy Jackson. “After seeing us all together again and realizing the chemistry is still there? I think it’d be pretty fun,” Ryan told People. “If we all were into it, I’d be interested in doing it together. I think it’d be a blast.”
