Ryan Seacrest as the most powerful man on Reality TV
April 7th, 2011 - 8:36 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattLos Angeles, April 7 (THAINDIAN NEWS) `Hollywood Reporter has named Ryan Seacrest as the most powerful personality in reality TV this year. The list was compiled by Hollywood Reporter as part of its annual Reality Power List. The 36-year-old American Idol host and radio personality has been ranked first for the third time in a row.
For years former American Idol judge, Simon Cowell, stayed on top of the list of the most powerful men in reality TV. Seacrest knocked Cowell from the top of the list in 2009. Seacrest stayed in the top spot in 2010 as well and this is the third year that Seacrest has been named as the most powerful man in reality TV.
The compilers of the show explained that the list consist of those who have “reputation for quality and innovation within the business” and “indelible mark one makes on his or her shows.”
Cowell is storming back on the US scene again. He is due to launch his new reality show X Factor later this year. The US version of the show follows its success in the United Kingdom. Cowell is ranked sixth on the list of the most powerful men in reality TV.
