Ryan Seacrest Takes Us Inside Fashion Rocks 2014
(CBS NEWS) – Ryan Seacrest is busy at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, as he gets set to host Fashion Rocks 2014.
The "American Idol" staple will serve as the emcee at the star-studded event, which merges the worlds of fashion and music for a night of new looks and live performances.
"I think what makes this show so special is that it all unfolds live," Seacrest told CBS News at the Barclays Center. "You never know what exactly is going to happen -- who's going to do what and who's going to not do what. And I think that's the beauty of a show like this."
The two-hour event will be executive produced by Richard Beckman, CEO of Three Lions Entertainment, and Don Mischer of Don Mischer Productions.
Musical acts scheduled to perform include Jennifer Lopez, KISS, Jennifer Hudson, Nicki Minaj, Luke Bryan, Duran Duran, Miranda Lambert, Enrique Iglesias, Afrojack, The Band Perry, Nico & Vinz, Rita Ora and Pitbull.
