Reality Rocks‘Idol’ Reunion! Randy Jackson & Ryan Seacrest Jam With Aerosmith Onstage
Steven Tyler may have made it abundantly clear, in multiple interviews, that he's happy to be off "American Idol" and back to making music with Aerosmith--but he obviously harbors no hard feelings against his old "Idol" co-stars, Randy Jackson and Ryan Seacrest. In fact, on Thursday night, Steven invited Randy and Ryan onstage with Aerosmith during the band's concert at the Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, for the band's famous cover of the Beatles' "Come Together."
Randy and Ryan happened to be in town for the Oklahoma City "Idol" Season 12 audition tapings with new judges Mariah Carey, Nicki Minaj, and Keith Urban, and after paying Steven a backstage visit, they ended up becoming part of the show. Randy handled bass duties, of course, while Ryan, looking very out-of-place in the rock 'n' roll setting, awkwardly but gamely sang along.
According to E! Online, Ryan helped pick out Steven's outfit for the gig--but Ryan opted for a more sedate business-casual ensemble, involving a navy suit jacket, for his own stagewear. "Thanks for letting us ride shotgun tonight onstage!" Ryan tweeted Steven later that night.
Check out the full performance below; Ryan's somewhat adorkable cameo comes in around the 3:10 mark.
