Ryan Seacrest Enforces Rules After Derek Hough’s Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Stunt

Ryan Seacrest, host of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, had to enforce a new rule after Derek Hough jumped on the show's iconic 2,400-pound wheel during a commercial break, prompting Seacrest to warn him and fellow Dancing With the Stars judge Bruno Tonioli to avoid such antics to prevent damage. Seacrest described the incident as Hough spinning on the wheel like a "top of a cake ornament," which could have broken the wheel, of which there is only one. Seacrest, who has a personal connection to Hough through dating his sister Julianne Hough, joked that knowing someone helps when teasing them about behavior on set. Despite the warning, Hough's physicality contributed to a fun episode, and he ultimately won $63,350 for Feeding America. Additionally, co-host Vanna White presented Hough with a handmade baby blanket for his upcoming child, adding an emotional moment to the show. Seacrest took over hosting Wheel of Fortune after Pat Sajak's retirement and is known for taking the role seriously while maintaining an enjoyable atmosphere.
