NEW YORK (AP) - Ryan Seacrest is known as a lot of things — slick "American Idol" ringmaster, hotshot radio deejay, ubiquitous E! channel host — but funny guy's not one of them. Which makes his scene-stealing cameo in "Knocked Up" such an amusing surprise.
Even more so because he's the butt of the joke.
Seacrest sends up his pompous image in the Judd Apatow-directed comedy about an ambitious entertainment reporter (Katherine Heigl) whose life is flipped when she learns she is pregnant. She takes her job seriously at E! Entertainment Television — but not as seriously as the film-version Seacrest, who launches into a riotous rant during a scene that lasts barely two minutes.
