Toward the end of the "American Idol" finale Sunday night, Ryan Seacrest had trouble talking, and one of his eyes was almost closed.

"American Idol" fans who watched Sunday night's season finale noticed that by the end of the show, Ryan started having trouble speaking, and one of his eyes was almost closed. (Here's video.)

Then yesterday morning, he was replaced by MARK CONSEULOS on "Live with Kelly and Ryan". Which led to speculation that Ryan suffered a stroke on live TV.

Luckily that's NOT the case. His rep says he's, quote, "adjusting to the new normal and finding work-home balance, with the added stress of having to put on live shows from home."

He's also overworked thanks to his duties on "Live with Kelly and Ryan", "American Idol", "On Air with Ryan Seacrest", and the "Disney Family Singalong" specials. So yesterday, he, quote, "took a well-deserved day off."

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
