A proud host. Despite what Andy Cohen thought of ABC’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, the special dominated the competition, ratings-wise — and host Ryan Seacrest couldn’t be happier.
The American Idol host, 47, posted a screenshot of an article about Rockin’ Eve‘s ratings win to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday, January 5. According to The Wrap, the Friday, December 31, show was the highest-rated New Year’s Eve special on TV with 19.6 million viewers — triple the amount that watched Miley Cyrus and Pete Davidson on Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party. The evening also gave Rockin’ Eve its most viewers in four years.
“Thank you to everyone who made this year’s #RockinEve another success!” Seacrest wrote on Wednesday in a post shared via Instagram. “To all those who tuned in, to my amazing co-hosts @lizakoshy, @ciara, @theebillyporter, @roselyn_sanchez, as well as the incredible artists and the crew who made the 50th Anniversary so special. We couldn’t have done it without you!”
News of the special’s success came days after Cohen, 53, admitted that he regretted mocking Rockin’ Eve during his own New Year’s Eve broadcast cohosted with Anderson Cooper. During CNN’s New Year’s Eve Live, the Bravo exec used the phrase “Ryan Seacrest’s group of losers” to describe the musical guests performing on Rockin’ Eve.
“I’m sorry but if you’re watching ABC, you’re watching nothing,” the Superficial author said. “We were doused with confetti from fake Journey on ABC. If it’s not Steve Perry, it doesn’t count! You get it? It’s not Journey! It’s propaganda! It’s propaganda! It’s not Journey! It’s not Journey! No, that was not Journey. Steve Perry is Journey.”
Three days later, however, the Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen host said his comments

Comedian and actress Kathy Griffin claimed CNN president Jeff Zucker slashed her pay after she had asked for a raise as co-host of the network's New Year's Eve special. In a profile published Wednesday in The New York Times, Griffin recalled reaching out to Zucker ten days before the broadcast in 2016 and told him she felt she deserved more than her $80,000 contract since "she was carrying more of the prep work" than her co-host, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. According to Griffin, Zucker "got very offended." "He started yelling at me and he literally said something like, ‘Who do you think you are calling here demanding a raise?’ And then something came over me. And I just lost it.
