Howard Stern may judge America’s Got Talent
As any Howard Stern fan can tell you, the radio shock jock is similar to Donald Trump when it comes to announcing his future plans.
The latest Stern pronouncement is, in the humble opinion of this long time Stern fan, yet another musing as opposed to a real plan. Remember when he was talking about judging American Idol after Simon Cowell left?
Here’s the latest Newser summary:
Here we go again with the Howard-Stern-as-celebrity-judge rumors. This time, he’s supposedly in talks with NBC to join America’s Got Talent as a judge alongside Howie Mandel and Sharon Osbourne, report the Wrap and the Wall Street Journal. Both cite anonymous insiders. Stern would replace Piers Morgan, who announced this week he is leaving the show to concentrate on his CNN program.
Stern recently re-upped with Sirius XM, and he would continue hosting his morning radio show. (He’s in a legal fight with Sirius, it’s worth noting, having sued his employer earlier this year over stock bonuses.) The new gig would reportedly pay him an additional $15 million a year. NBC is so serious it’s considering moving the talent show from Los Angeles to New York, where Stern lives, says the Journal.
Do you think Howard Stern would make a good judge?

He would definitely make a good judge. The show wants ratings and he would bring them because he is off the wall, like Simon Cowell, who brought ratings.
