AMERICAN IDOL host RYAN SEACREST is recovering after he was bitten by a shark at the weekend (26-27Jul08).
The TV personality was swimming in the ocean off California when his foot was nibbled by the baby predator.
He says, "I was bitten by a shark... (there were) a thousand people in the ocean, and I get mo by the shark."
According to the DJ, the diminutive shark left a fragment of tooth behind - embedded in his foot - and he has the mark to prove it.
