Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water...
Ryan Seacrest admitted on his
radio show Monday that he was bitten by a shark over the weekend.
The
American Idol and
E! News host was not seriously injured. "You feel something swim by you," said Seacrest. "I thought it was a stick." Except that "stick" had teeth, Seacrest told
Us. He said the shark's tooth "wasn't a great thing to find. It was like finding a splinter!"
Knowing how ubiquitous Seacrest is, I can't help but wonder whether he has some stake in Shark Week. Something smells a little fishy. -
