Ryan Seacrest Prepares for Wheel of Fortune Hosting

Seacrest-hosted episodes of Wheel of Fortune are expected to begin airing in September, but the show will start taping earlier. A source told Closer that Seacrest is a “bundle of nerves” as he prepares for the new gig, adding that it’s “a challenge of epic proportions.”

“He’s doing everything possible to cope with the inevitable nerves ahead of his hosting gig,” the source shared, “and that includes getting at least eight hours of sleep a night and listening to audio books for anxiety because Ryan never knows how to clock off on his own.”

Other tricks Seacrest reportedly uses to deal with nerves include spending time outside, drinking herbal teas such as chamomile and ginger, and doing yoga. Seacrest also apparently enjoys listening to Tibetan singing bowls, as well as aromatherapy.

Seacrest Posted a Tribute to Sajak

Earlier this month, when Sajak officially left his longtime hosting position on Wheel of Fortune, Seacrest posted a tribute on Instagram. He shared a photo of himself on the show’s set with Sajak and co-host Vanna White.

“Pat, congratulations on an incredible run with Wheel of Fortune!” Seacrest wrote in the caption. “Your dedication, charm, and wit have made the show a beloved part of American television for decades.”


He wrote that Sajak and White had an “iconic” partnership, adding that they “set the standard for hosts everywhere.” Seacrest called this “the end of an era” and concluded the post with “best wishes for all your future endeavors.”
