Ryan Seacrest<\/a> recreated four album covers for four artists who will be at the iHeartRadio Festival on September 19. One of the albums was Mariah Carey<\/a>\u2018s from 2009. Fans went wild over the recreations.<\/p>\n \u201cMy discography: 0. My dedication to recreating your favorite artists\u2019 cover art: 100<\/p>\n \ufffd\ufffd<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n . Don\u2019t worry, the originals will look (and sound) much better live at #iHeartFestival in just 1 DAY,\u201d Ryan Seacrest wrote on Instagram on September 18. He also shared the side-by-side comparisons on his Story.<\/p>\n He then shared four photos of himself as Tate McRae<\/a>, Ed Sheeran<\/a>, LL Cool J<\/a>, and Mariah Carey. Carey\u2019s album, Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel<\/em>, came out in September 2009. On the album cover, Carey stood in three poses: one with her hand on her stomach, one with her arms on her head, and one with her left arm on her head and her right arm sticking out.<\/p>\n Seacrest did a recreation of it with his own poses. First, he stood with his arms and mouth open wide. For the second one, he smiled and gave a thumbs-up. On the third one, the Wheel of Fortune<\/em><\/a> host pretended to box someone. Seacrest wore all white just like Carey did.<\/p>\n Ryan Seacrest recreating Mariah Carey’s album, “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel”<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \u201cMariah\u2019s Memoirs album.

He wore a black tank top and shorts and had hockey kneepads on his legs with the words \u201cThink Later\u201d on them. Seacrest looked to the left as he stood in front of a black background. His pose was almost identical to the pop singer\u2019s.<\/p>\n Ryan Seacrest recreating Tate McRae’s album, “Think Later”<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Ryan Seacrest\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cJust an FYI \u2013 the hockey pads are on the wrong side. Although Think Later makes more sense,\u201d one fan pointed out.<\/p>\n \u201cLolll @tatemcrae,\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n Ed Sheeran came out with the song, \u201cAzizam,\u201d in April 2025, off his album Play<\/em>, which was released on September 12. On the single cover, Sheeran is looking down while jumping in the air with a building in the background and a blue sky behind him. Seacrest\u2019s recreation was almost identical except that he wore black pants, whereas Sheeran wore pink. Their arm placement was also a bit different. But, their blue sneakers with yellow laces were identical.<\/p>\n Ryan Seacrest recreating Ed Sheeran’s “Azizam” single cover<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Ryan Seacrest\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cThis is incredible!\u201d a fan said.<\/p>\n \u201cIconic,\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n Seacrest also recreated LL Cool J\u2019s 1990 album, Mama Said Knock You Out<\/em>. On his cover, the rapper is shirtless, wearing a big ring with his name on it, as well as a gold chain and bracelet. He wore a serious expression. Seacrest copied everything from the cover except he wore a black t-shirt instead of going shirtless.<\/p>\n Ryan Seacrest recreating LL Cool J’s album cover, “Mama Said Knock You Out’<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Ryan Seacrest\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cOmg, the remake of LL COOL J\u2019s album should be framed,\u201d one follower said.<\/p>\n \u201cThe LL Cool J is rocking,\u201d a fan wrote.<\/p>\n \u201cYou are hilarious, Ryan!! You nailed them all! Love it, how fun,\u201d commented another.<\/p>\n \u201cYou\u2019re such a good sport,\u201d one last fan said.<\/p>\n These four artists, plus Bryan Adams<\/a>, Diplo<\/a>, Jelly Roll<\/a>, Tim McGra<\/a>w<\/a>, Maroon 5, and more, will perform at the iHeartRadio Music Festival<\/a> on September 19 and 20.
