We love seeing celebrities in Disney World having just as much fun as we do when we’re on vacation!

However, this celebrity sighting is a little different — he’s not on vacation, he’s putting in hours to earn his ears! That’s right — Ryan Seacrest was just seen in Disney World, and he was working to become an honorary Cast Member!
Ryan Seacrest, most known for Live with Kelly and Ryan and currently being the host of Wheel of Fortune, just shared some photos of his time in Disney World where he got to be an honorary Cast Member!

Ryan wore a Main Street, U.S.A., Cast Member costume and had a nametag with his name and “Honorary Cast Member” underneath it. He even had a red ribbon underneath saying he was Earning His Ears, which is Disney’s adorable way of saying someone is “in training.”

To earn his ears, he handed out free balloons to families walking down Main Street — you can see it in this adorable video below! Some people recognized him nearly immediately and couldn’t believe it, and honestly, we’d react the same way.
We love seeing stories like this and loved seeing how much joy Ryan was able to bring to people as he Earned His Ears. Looking for more recent celebrity news? Check out our posts below!
