Ryan Seacrest will be alongside Lucy Hale to ring in 2020, but it’s not the first time the two have worked together.
This week, the longtime host of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve took to Twitter to welcome his new co-host, Lucy Hale, with a throwback picture of the first time they worked together — all the way back in 2003. At the time, Hale appeared on the American Idol kids spinoff American Juniors, which Seacrest also hosted.
Hale has been pulling New Year’s Rockin’ Eve hosting duties in New Orleans since 2016, but this will mark her New York City debut while Billy Porter takes over for her in The Big Easy. The Pretty Little Liars actress said that actually hosting alongside Seacrest is beyond her wildest dream.
In an interview with Billboard, Hale said she vividly remembered appearing with Ryan on American Juniors when she was 14-years-old.
“I remember it vividly. It was my first time in LA,” she said.
