E! host and Community star Joel McHale recently appeared on Ryan Seacrest's radio show to tout his new film Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D, and joked about losing an invite to Saturday's Kardashian wedding. “You’re not going to believe this. My invite must have been lost in the mail," he deadpanned.

Maybe they’re not going to invite me after all.' "
