Only in LA…Hanging With Ryan Seacrest and Coca-Cola

Posted by Caryn Bailey 1 Comment

Most days, my life is pretty uneventful.  School…grocery shopping…house-cleaning…meal preparation…meeting Ryan Seacrest at the American Idol Finalist Party in Los Angeles.

Ok…so maybe last week wasn’t so typical and I likely won’t have another quite like it. After a very event-filled week, it was nice to relax on the rooftop at The Grove overlooking LA while several LA and OC-based bloggers waited to meet Ryan Seacrest and the finalists from American Idol.  The reality show, which is in it’s 11th season, is one of my favorites. I still remember watching as Kelly Clarkson was named the very first winner.

So how did I end up mingling with the Emmy Award nominated Host?

Coca Cola, which is one of the show’s sponsors, invited us out for the evening to learn about their Family Night Music Cover Artwork contest.  The contest, which has the coveted prize of a trip for four to the American Idol finale, is designed to bring family’s together, much like the show.  From what I hear, contestants are getting very creative.  Check it out before the deadline, which is approaching March 13th. I’m in the process of completing mine! : )

The party itself was lively and very LA.  There was a blue carpet where the hosts and the contestants stood to speak to and take photographs, all while the show was airing live. Speaking of photos, here are some of my favorites from the evening.




No compensation was received for this post. I was invited to attend the party, courtesy of Coca-Cola.
