Brian Dunkleman, an original cohost of American Idol, said during a stand-up routine last week that he wished current Idol emcee Ryan Seacrest would contract AIDS, reports TMZ.

"If wishes came true, Ryan Seacrest would have AIDS," he said, adding that Seacrest "probably already has AIDS."

Dunkleman cohosted Idol during its 2002 season, when Kelly Clarkson was crowned the series' first champion. (The Advocate)
