00:05In the middle boys!
00:31Throughout the years, hundreds of people have fueled American Idol.
00:36Those on the TV production, those as part of the concert tour, our sponsors, our partners,
00:43and all of us are grateful that you decided to bring this show to America 10 years ago.
00:52I know that I would not be anywhere near where I am today if it wasn't for Simon.
00:58And there are certainly many others who could say the exact same thing.
01:02He's always there behind the scenes, making it all happen.
01:06And as Ryan said, I'm glad he's here in front of you all today to have his big, giant moment
01:12in the flashes of the camera.
01:14The most special thing about today, while the star is fantastic, and I'm proud about that,
01:20the most special thing by a million miles for me today is to see all my friends, my family,
01:26my beautiful baby girl who's six months old, my adorable wife.
01:30And I know it's really corny to say those things, but that actually is the absolute truth.
01:35It's very special.
01:37And the turnout for me is beyond, beyond, beyond.
01:42So thank you so much for my heart.
01:45Ladies and gentlemen, we proudly welcome the Hollywood Marketplace, Simon Fuller.
01:49Thank you so much for your attention.
02:06Thank you so much for your attention.
