RYAN Seacrest has been dropped off at a gas station across the street for his Oscars red carpet entrance.
The former Live star described his creative drop-off as "glamorous," but took the relatable blunder in stride.
Ryan, 48, took to his Instagram to share footage from inside his car drop-off on the Oscars 2023 red carpet.
However, his entrance wasn't as grand as anticipated.
With a female assistant running outside of his car window, Ryan asked: "Are we at the Oscars and getting off at the gas station?"

His assistant said: "We're getting off at a gas station, Ryan Seacrest."
Ryan joked: "Ahoy, you know you've made it when..."
The star took the time at the unexpected stop to take a photo with a fan visiting from Mexico and share adorable footage of a sweet canine passenger.
However, it appears Ryan made his way to the red carpet alright, as he stunned in a classic black-and-white suit.
PARADISE
Ryan has appeared at the Oscars after announcing he is leaving Live with Kelly and Ryan.
He's been taking the extra time on his hands to spend alongside his girlfriend, Aubrey Paige, 25.
Earlier this month, the couple took a sunny getaway at Miami Beach.
With her hair pulled up into a near bow, Audrey stunned with her sleeveless yellow dress.
She flaunted her long legs while strutting across in sneakers.
The Live with Kelly and Ryan star kept up with their romantic stroll as he held the leash to his black laborador.

FINAL COUNTDOWN
Last month, Ryan shocked fans when he announced on air that he will be leaving Live with Kelly and Ryan later this year.
He then went on to share that Kelly's husband, Mark Consuelos, will be taking his spot as co-host.
The only other detail Ryan had shared about his departure was that it will take place this spring.
Last week, however, he gave another update on when he will be leaving Live.
Idris Elba helped get the scoop for fans during his guest appearance on the show.
The beloved actor asked: “So, Ryan, I hear you might be leaving?”
The host said there was no might about it, as it’s definitely happening.
“I am,” Ryan told Idris, “In a couple of weeks.”
The guest was shocked and quickly responded, “No way!”
But the American Idol star promised: “It’s going to be a fun last few weeks.”
“I’m really sad to see you go, really,” Idris insisted.
While Ryan hasn’t yet given the exact date of his final episode of Live with Kelly and Ryan, it's likely it'll occur just before American Idol begins its live shows.
As the pre-taped audition episodes are currently airing, the live episodes, which air from Los Angeles, will likely begin in April.
This would line up with Ryan's tease that he only had a "few weeks" left on Live.
When Ryan first announced his impending exit last month, he told his co-host: "This has been the greatest time for me. I can't thank you enough."
She sweetly replied: "There is nobody else like you. There is nobody that can really do what you do.
"I know you in real life and in TV life and I say this about very few people. What you see is what you get.
"This is not an act. This is a good man. And I am so just endlessly impressed by you."
Ryan stayed silent and looked solemn as his co-host said such kind words.
