Ryan Seacrest, the most famous metrosexual in the world or the biggest closet case, depending on whom you believe, appeared on Ellen Degeneres’ talk show today and whined about how he’s so busy with his career that he doesn’t have time to find a girlfriend. Ellen’s gaydar didn’t seem to be going off at this remark, because she didn’t burst into fits of laughter. Instead, she showed pictures of famous female celebs and asked Seacrest which one was his type.
Ellen DeGeneres — matchmaker?
On Friday’s Ellen DeGeneres Show, she agreed to fix up Ryan Seacrest after he lamented about his lackluster love life.
He said he has been “so busy” he hasn’t had time to look for love.
“Yes, but you’re going to wait too long and get in a rut being single,” said DeGeneres, who wed Portia de Rossi this past summer.
DeGeneres then held up photos of famous women — Pam Anderson, britney spears, carrie underwood, eva mendes and jennifer aniston — and asked Seacrest to pick one.
He chose Mendes first.
“She’s gorgeous,” he said. “Yeah, I kind of went there first. I like Carrie, but then I kind of feel like she is part of the Idol thing, so I don’t know if that’s the right thing to do.”
Spears, he said, “is young and obviously there’s enough going on and that’s not for me.”
But Mendes, he went on, “is great.”
“Would you like me to set you up with her?” DeGeneres asked.
“Yeah,” said Seacrest.
For now, Seacrest has one famous lady in his life: paris hilton. On Friday, he announced that they will develop a new scripted series together.

Ugh- a Paris Hilton scripted series? Like her other reality shows weren’t scripted. This is yet another reason to hate Seacrest, who is responsible for such reality show suckfests as “Keeping up with the Kardashians” and “denise richards: It’s Complicated.” Even if Ryan actually did like women, there’s no way Eva Mendes would want to associate herself with someone who thought those shows were a good idea. If I were Ellen, I would have thrown in a random photo of a really attractive female impersonator, just to see what Ryan would pick. Maybe that’s why I don’t have my own talk show.
