Were Ryan Seacrest’s Comments To Katy Perry On ‘American Idol’ Creepy?

On Sunday night, things got a bit awkward when Ryan Seacrest made weird comments to Katy Perry during a commercial break.

“We’re on,” Katy said trying to direct his attention to the camera.

“Your mom’s pretty,” he replies.

She said, “My mom? Well, I hope the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” and winks at the camera, perhaps trying to signal to Ryan that they’re live.

He chuckles and said, “You are too, but you’re not a mom.”

“Not yet,” she said.

And then he made things seriously weird when he said, “Do you wanna talk about it?”

At this point, Lionel Richie mutters “Don’t start.”

Some people are starting to say that was creepy — what are your thoughts?
