A proud host.

According to The Wrap, the Friday, December 31, show was the highest-rated New Year’s Eve special on TV with 19.6 million viewers — triple the amount that watched Miley Cyrus and Pete Davidson on Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party.

The evening also gave Rockin’ Eve its most viewers in four years.“Thank you to everyone who made this year’s #RockinEve another success!” Seacrest wrote on Wednesday in a post shared via Instagram. “To all those who tuned in, to my amazing co-hosts @lizakoshy, @ciara, @theebillyporter, @roselyn_sanchez, as well as the incredible artists and the crew who made the 50th Anniversary so special.

We couldn’t have done it without you!”News of the special’s success came days after Cohen, 53, admitted that he regretted mocking Rockin’ Eve during his own New Year’s Eve broadcast cohosted with Anderson Cooper.
