Queer Eye for the Straight Guy! Ryan Seacrest Hires Male Stylist After Sex Scandal
Ryan Seacrest may have found a way to avoid being accused of sexual harassment again — by working with a male stylist!
RadarOnline.com exclusively learned stylist to the stars Sam Spector joined ‘Team Ryan’ last May when he began his morning co-hosting gig Live With Kelly and Ryan on ABC.
Since then, openly gay Sam has styled Ryan for the American Idol reboot on ABC, red carpet events for E! and magazine photo shoots.
Sam is very in demand having worked with the very dapper Neil Patrick Harris and Andy Cohen.
“It’s a brilliant move actually,” a source that previously worked with Ryan told RadarOnline.com. “Just remove the temptation entirely."
As RadarOnline.com readers know, last year, pretty and single stylist Suzie Hardy came forward to allege years of sexual harassment (beginning in 2007) when she worked with the 43-year old E! News host.

Hardy revealed she was let go from the E! Network in 2013 after she claimed that Seacrest had groped her, rubbed against her while wearing only his underwear, and shoved her face in his crotch when she was tying his shoes.
Upon meeting Hardy, he allegedly told the petite blonde, “You’re my type.”
Seacrest denied any wrongdoing and an independent investigation found there was “insufficient evidence” to support her claims.
No more chance of that happening while on the job!
Stylist Sam married his longtime partner last September and the couple enjoys traveling the world together when he’s not working for Ryan, sources revealed to RadarOnline.com.
“There’s too much at stake for the networks if Ryan goes down. He’s literally "too big to fail" and they’ve found a very clever way to make sure he’s kept on the straight and narrow!”
