Ryan Seacrest's Shocking Gelman 'Nuts' Joke on Live!

Ryan Seacrest made a surprise return to Live during its annual Halloween episode on Friday. He appeared in a pre-taped Spider-Man spoof segment, playing himself as a reporter. Seacrest introduced the show's 'Times Square into Times Scare' festivities.

During his appearance, Seacrest delivered a humorous and slightly shocking line directed at executive producer Michael Gelman, referencing "his nuts." He quickly clarified that he was referring to the mixed nuts Gelman used to share, though hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos still reacted with disbelief.

The episode also featured Ripa and Consuelos in costumes inspired by Lady Gaga and Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance. The popular Halloween show is known for its celebrity cameos, with this year also including appearances by Juju Green, Lisa Rinna, Alan Cumming, and Andy Cohen.
