In horse racing , there 's the trifecta . In entertainment , there 's the EGOT for winners of the Emmy , Grammy , Oscar and Tony awards . Maybe in the future there will be something called the Seacrest -- for holding down hosting gigs with all four major American broadcasters . The superfecta was trumpeted on Tuesday when CBS confirmed that Ryan Seacrest will host and produce `` Fashion Rocks , '' a two-hour special that airs on the network in September . Seacrest has existing relationships with ABC , to host `` New Year 's Rockin ' Eve , '' with Fox , to host `` American Idol , '' and with NBC . In other words , CBS was the only broadcaster left . ( Unless you count the Spanish-language Univision network ; Seacrest , are you boning up on your Spanish ? ) Seacrest 's new deal with CBS , and an extension of his existing deal with NBC , were first reported by The Hollywood Reporter . NBC subsequently confirmed that Seacrest has re-upped for one year . `` This new deal will include hosting and producing 2015 Live from the Red Carpet events for E ! , contributing to E ! News , as well as hosting and producing specials for E ! and NBC , '' a network spokeswoman said . There had been speculation that Seacrest would stop hosting the red carpet shows . What 's missing from the extended deal instead are NBC News and NBC Sports . When the deal was originally struck in 2012 , Seacrest was named a `` special correspondent '' on the `` Today '' show , which is a part of the news division , and a contributor to NBC 's prime time coverage of the Olympics , which is a part of the sports division . Seacrest told The Hollywood Reporter that `` he 'd like to try to continue working with both divisions and has already had conversations with NBC Sports about collaborating on the Olympics coverage in Rio in 2016 , as he did the London games in 2012 . 'Today ' is less likely , given a morning radio schedule that has him in Los Angeles while the NBC show broadcasts out of New York . ''
Ryan Seacrest signed a new hosting deal with CBS . That puts him in touch with all four major American television networks . He also renewed his NBC contract and will continue contributing to E ! Will he take on the sports world next ? He has his eye on the Olympics .
