American Idoljudges are unwinding — or trying to — ahead of another nail-biting episode on Sunday.
A voiceover of Seacrest then continues to set the tone for the episode.

“Buckle up, the island of Oahu will never be the same. The contestants pour out their souls, all in front of a live audience — and our three judges who are mean and won’t let anyone have any fun,” he says, before Bryan, 46, cuts him off.
“You better watch yourself with that smart-aleck business mister,” the country star says.
In response, Seacrest continues to poke fun at the judges as the camera zooms out — revealing that Seacrest is actually talking to himself and playing with dolls.

“Our job is so hard. We don’t have to do anything anymore because America is voting,” he says as he moves the figures who resemble judges around.
This prompted a reaction from Perry, 38, “Ryan John Seacrest, that is enough.”

The video concludes with the host holding a bobblehead modeled after himself as he says, “The very talented and amazing and tall Ryan Seacrest comes out and says… ‘From Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa, this isAmerican Idol.'”
