PAULA Abdul says Ryan Seacrest is steamed over being snubbed on the cover of the most recent Rolling Stone magazine.

The cover features Abdul and fellow “American Idol” judges Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell lying in a bed with one of Abdul’s dogs – and a tiny photo of Sea crest on the front and back cover of a book held by Jackson.

Abdul, guesting on Mon day’s “Tonight Show,” says Seacrest was angry at the slight – and she also used the occasion to take a swipe at the “Idol” host’s love life.

Abdul made her com ments after “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno held up the Rolling Stone cover for his audience to see.

“Now Ryan, he’s not on there,” Leno said.

“Well, he’s down there,” said Abdul, pointing to the tiny photos of Seacrest. “I guess that didn’t go over very well.”

“Oh, was he mad about it?” Leno said.

“I heard plenty mad,” Abdul responded.

Abdul told Leno that the photo was taken with only her – and Jackson and Cowell (and the Seacrest “book”) were added in later.

“You know, the brilliance of this is none of us were there,” Abdul said.

Leno also asked Abdul about the rumored romance between Seacrest and “Desperate Housewives” star Teri Hatcher, who were photographed smooching.

“He only kisses the mirror,” Abdul said of Seacrest. “And, honestly, do you think Teri Hatcher is that desperate of a housewife?”

“There is no validity to what Paula said about Ryan on ‘The Tonight Show,’ ” said a Seacrest spokeswoman.

“Ryan hasn’t spoken to Paula about either Rolling Stone, or his personal life.”
