An ABC publicity photo promoting their annual depressing-party-in-a-box, New Year's Rockin' Eve, is causing controversy for having Photoshopped in a smiling, fully upright, pre-stroke Dick Clark next to co-hosts Hilary Duff and Ryan Seacrest:

"Depressing party-in-a-box" indeed. Hillary Duff and Ryan Seacrest. No wonder the jihadists think we're ripe for toppling.

She doesn't look like she'd be a member of a band named Guns 'N' Roses. She looks like Kathi Lee Gifford.

LMAO!!!

Wrong Duff. Although it's questionable who looks better (especially with that new chin implant that the rocker Duff is sporting. Gives such a manly look. Hillary just got old man dentures)

Hilary Duff is a no-talent pop singer, Ryan Seacrest is the host of American Idol.
