Ryan Seacrest almost wasn’t let into Jennifer Lopez’s 50th birthday party

Seacrest out.

Ryan Seacrest, who worked alongside Jennifer Lopez on “American Idol,” revealed he flew down to Miami to celebrate the singer’s milestone 50th birthday, but was denied at the door.

“You’re not on the list,” Seacrest, 44, said the doorman told him, to which he responded, “Clearly, there’s a mistake. She invited me personally.”

The talk-show host recalled the incident on “Live With Kelly and Ryan” Thursday and explained that he flew down from New York for only a few hours because he had to make it back in time for the next morning’s show.

Upon getting denied, Seacrest said he asked to see the list and “well, sure enough there’s Ryan T., and Ryan Z. There’s no Ryan Seacrest.”

The doorman asked him to “wait under the fan,” and co-host Kelly Ripa joked, “Under the fan? Do you know how long it took him to do his hair?”

After making a quick call, the doorman was able to confirm that Seacrest was indeed on the guest list.

“Thank you, sir. I told you so,” Seacrest said he told him, adding that he was the “first person there” and that partygoers didn’t get “turned up” until after he left.

Page Six exclusively reported that Lopez celebrated her 50th alongside fiancé Alex Rodriguez, 250 guests, including their families, at Gloria and Emilio Estefan’s Miami estate on Star Island. Fat Joe, Ashanti and DJ Khaled performed at the party.
