‘Wheel of Fortune’ Star Vanna White Has the Sweetest Ringtone for Ryan Seacrest
It’s easy to see that Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White have true chemistry. When Pat Sajak retired, and Ryan took over, some worried that it just wouldn’t be the same. But many would probably tell you they were pleasantly surprised. Ryan and Vanna have witty banter, share personal stories, and truly seem like friends both on- and off-screen. During a February 2026 episode, the pair began to talk about ringtones, and Vanna White revealed something extremely sweet. She has specialized ringtones for the people most important to her, including Ryan.

The Ringtone Vanna White Chose for Ryan Seacrest Really is Perfect
Vanna White told Ryan Seacrest all about her ringtones, TV Insider reported.
“We were backstage before the show, and Vanna’s phone kept ringing songs, like your ringtones were songs,” Ryan said.
Vanna replied to Ryan very matter-of-factly.
“I have ringtones for all of my friends and people,” she explained.
Vanna said her daughter Gigi’s ringtone is Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars. Her son Nikko’s is Sweet Child O’ Mine by Guns N’ Roses.
Vanna White then asked Ryan Seacrest if he wanted to know the ringtone she chose for him. Ryan playfully asked if she wanted him to call her, but Vanna shared the song before he could.
“Yours is You’ve Got a Friend In Me by Randy Newman,” Vanna said.
The song is one of the most famous Disney tunes and comes from the Toy Story franchise. Ryan understood the significance of the song choice and became emotional.
“Aww. Thank you so much,” Ryan said. “That’s so sweet. I didn’t know that. I would’ve called. That’s so sweet.”
Choosing a special ringtone may sound simple, but for Vanna White, it’s an expression of love.
