Seacrest Reminisces On His First-Ever LA Thanksgiving With Roomie Tannaz

You haven’t lived unless you’ve been forced to share a room with someone in an apartment 😂 Ryan Seacrest recalled during our on-air “Showgiving” celebration ahead of Thanksgiving on Wednesday, November 27, the time he moved to Los Angeles and had to live in a one-bedroom apartment with pal Mark Tannaz.

“I remember when I first moved [to LA], I knew one person: Mark Tannaz,” Seacrest, who grew up in Atlanta, shared. “… He and I were literally roommates in one bedroom and I say that with a somber tone because it was a moment where I was sharing a bedroom with Mark Tannaz,” Seacrest joked. “… Listen, using his towel — and I’ll never forget — using his towels made me a different person.”

As anyone who has lived the struggle can relate, “it had a rip in it and it was thin,” Seacrest added. “We didn’t love to do laundry at Park Point apartment complex. It was a real chore to go down there.”

Seacrest continued that he and Tannaz would travel to Tannaz’s parent’s house in Corona to spend Thanksgiving.

“He and I would eat several rounds of what his mom and dad would make and the game was you win if you can sit at the table [and] you lose if you’ve eaten so much you have to go lay down on the carpet,” he recalled. “The game was eat until you can’t sit up.”
