Howard Stern Will Replace Simon Cowell on Idol For $100 Million!

We'd do it for free!
Howard Stern has said that he would replace Simon Cowell on American Idol, but only if they cough up 100 million big ones. Says Stern:
"They'd have to pay me a ton of dough because I already make a ton of dough. Yeah I would do that show for $100 million."
Stern, referring to the Idol as a "fucking karaoke contest" said that being a judge would be the best job on the planet and he is even rumored to be leaving Sirius XM Radio soon.
BUT $100 million is a lot of money…
And like we said — PEREZ will do it for free! Call us!

Well at least you live up to being a Media Whore and you don't go around doing interviews saying "No I don't like the press or no I don't call the Paps" No Perez you live right up to it………nice.
there's a tanking ratings idea
He was joking about the $100 million. He seemed surprised that the media even mentioned that number. Of course he would not get move then Simon is getting. His contract is up at the end of this year, that does not mean that he is rumored to be leaving. Stop looking in to this like it is fact. Howard always chats it up when it comes to weather or not he will stay on the radio. He has been doing that for ever.
yAA know what we reAAlly need???
MORE BOY bAAnds!!!!
now thAAt's an ideAA!!!!
i'd be AAll over thAAt that like boy bands being over.
I LOVE HOWARD! HE BETTER NOT LEAVE RADIO!!
Howard Stern would be hilarious. Too bad he doesn't really want to. He would be so controversial too.
Perez U are cute for trying. Who knows?!?! Maybe you will get it.
Maybe I will marry Crissy Ronaldo when you hook us up later.
desperate much p?
Perez, I love Howard but most of America doesn't. You, my friend, are even less appealing to the mainstream and I am gay. You just aren't that like-able. Sawwry!
You might offer to do it for free, but they would lose more money by having you as a judge than giving Howard money. Having you as a judge would result in tanked ratings and it would probably be canceled.
TELLS U SOMETHIN FAT BOY WHEN THEY DONT WANT U EVEN IF YOU DO IT FOR FREE. SUCK IT - AND U PROLLY DO A LOT!! JUST SAYIN.
Although Howard would be great on this show. I do not see it happening since to many people have preconceived notions of who Howard is and they would not give him a chance. But Howard is one of the funnest and smartest entertainers out there.
Begging for dates, begging to be a judge, you should realize by now no one wants your desperate fat ass. You have zero class, stick to tweeting your imaginary cyber friends fuckhead.
perez aren't you getting enough money and attention doing absolutely nothing on your blog? not enough people even know who you are where you'd be a viable candidate for this job. please stop begging for it and demeaning yourself. it's not going to happen
Perez as a judge? Remember the debacle you started at the Miss USA Beauty contest?.Idol contestants have to support the gay lobby or have Perez persecute them. No way, and that Stern character sounds like the wrong person.
Perez, you have absolutely the shittiest taste in music out of everyone I've ever known of. You'd put the gays and Lady CACA look-alikes above everyone because of your lame favoritism. And don't say you'd do it for free because I wouldn't even do it for free…..fuckin' liar.
of course you'd do it for free - that's all you're worth anyways
Perez….STFU!
It's called sarcasm!!! He would never do it. Howard Stern Rocks!!!
Unfortunately Mario - your just too fucking ugly for television.
Like WAY TOO FUCKING UGLY. Both inside and out.
Do you actually get laid without having to pay for it, promise somebody to make them a star (remember him Mario? - I'm sure he's not the only one), or smear dog food on your balls and get your fucktard pooches to lick it off?
Just asking douchebag.
If Howard goes to Idol, then I will start watching that lame show. I would hate for him to leave Sirius though.
Howard would suck. Bad idea
They wouldn't hire you if YOU paid them 100 million dollars fucktard
Howard would be worth 100M and Perez would be worth Zero. Sounds about right to me.
Wowwww Mario, he was fucking joking. He makes half a billion dollars doing his radio show, you REALLY think he'd take a huge pay cut to do Idol (a show that he has never seemed fond of). Saying he'd do it for $100 mil. was like saying "Yeah, I'd do it in a million years" AKA he'd never do it. Where is your sense of humor.
P.S. If they haven't already called you-they aren't interested. Trust me. You've been begging for weeks, if they were remotely interested in including your D-list ass they would have already picked up a phone or sent an email. Give it up, your place is at this second rate blog, honey
Effing primadonna 0000 tkink you worth that much))))) you wish
Re: Honk_If_You_Hate_Perez – im honking!! perez would have to pay THEM to be a judge and even then they wouldnt want him. hes THAT gross.
perez youd never be chosen for any job like this.people hate you,you might say people hate simon but they dont.the thing id your simply not respected by anybody what so ever.you have no back bone and cant stick to one side or another,you hunt with the hound and run with the hair.in other words you try to hard to be popular and always get it wrong your a little bitch.simon and whoever takes over has a values opinion,your a fat fuck who nobody respects.simple as that.
LOL! Every artist who dresses crazy like Gaga would be a shoe in if you were judge LOL!
Mario, when will you realize that will NEVER be asked to replace Simon on Idol? You don't know anything about music - you didn't discover any of the artists you attach yourself to. All of them - Gaga, Katy Perry, etc - already had record deals and you stated the obvious, "Duh, this song sounds good". Yeah, that song was already being spun on the radio, we know it sounds good.
Get over yourself. They DON'T WANT YOU!
who's more qualified than a guy blabbing Sex & The City girl's buying a house?
delusionAAl
Sadly, for you (and fortunately for the rest of the world) there is zero chance that you'll ever be considered for a mainstream entertainment gig. Given your complete lack of anything resembling talent (let's face it: you're barely literate) the only reason you have achieved anything that was at one time considered moderately successful is timing. You happened upon the celebrity bloguero concept by accident and accumulated an early fan base back in the day when you actually put some effort into this thing. Now, most of your traffic comes from people who despise you (not a long term success strategy) and the only reason you haven't slipped off the face of the earth is that there are a handful of lazy media producers remaining who call on you as a subject matter expert rather than hire an intern at $9/hr for about ten minutes to find someone who is actually qualified to offer an opinion. You mistake this for success and popularity. At your peril. Even your rapidly declining core constituency of 15 year old mean girls are getting wise to your mean-spirited, misogynist, and often homophobic ways. Tic Toc. Tic Toc. Enjoy it while it lasts.
What the show desperately needs is someone with baggage and an agenda who thinks Sliimy is the be-all and end-all, and that a boy-band's time has come. You might be suited for the Gong Show, Pumpkinhead, if they revived it, but only as some sort of ludicrous novelty act to be gonged in record time.
Oh please Perez, you couldn`t do that show. You`d be judging everyone on everyone on how retarded they dress which is why you love Lady Gag Gag so much.
Do it for free? You'd have to pay them to be on that show and they still wouldn't accept that deal. America does not like Perez Hilton. American Idol would be cancelled before the auditons were over.
Re: zach swan – I am agreeing with many of your points, Zach, Although I'm much older than a 15 year old I have been reading this blog for years. It used to be good! It used to be the go-to source for new gossip to read when bored at work. Now, it is written by other people (yes, Perez, we can tell the difference and your sister, assistant whomever is REALLY bad at spell check, grammar, etc.–it can be painful to read at times). Perez has jumped the shark, if you will. I go to other sources for more immediate juice that is current, factual and much more entertaining.
I understand why Perez has expanded his options of making money like a lot of other (real) celebs do–branching into other areas i.e. trying to create his own music label, clothing (the silly t-shirts he makes), the books and now the boy band crap, all this in addition to his TV and radio spots..
The point I mostly want to make here is that beyond the zillion reasons why Perez is not a contender for American Idol—his speaking voice is PAINFUL to listen to. He speaks slow , has the valley girl/gay thing going on and is incredibly annoying to listen to. Can you imagine the midwestern AI crowd trying to deal with this guy let alone both coasts. How has no one mentioned this before? Please, Perez–tone it down, speak quicker and try to sound a wee bit more intelligent on air. Also, save up your duckets cause i'm not sure how much longer this Perez thing will last.
HS does not have any background in the industry, his background is being harsh (DUH!)…personally, I do not see him as a good fit.
Re: pleaserain – For the record, I don't think that being older than 15 makes you a bad person, and I agree with you…
You would do it for free????? Why, is that what you think your worth??? Oh, that's right, never mind.
Came for the Perez hate, leaving satisfied.
You need psychiatric care, dear. Your name is not Perez. People who speak of themselves in the third person are inherently out of touch with reality. You have absolutely NO qualifications whatsoever to consider yourself a candidate in the professional entertainment industry - and certainly not a judge of anyone else's talent. Is there ANY reality at all in your life, or is it an episode of fantasy each and every day? You may be the last to know.
For the love of God..stay away from our television sets…you will never be at the level of Simon or Ellen…EVER…AND PLEASE STOP TRYING TO REPRESENT YOURSELF AS THE VOICE OF GAY AMERICA!!!
YOU ARE JUST RUINING OUR CAUSE!!!
howard stern is god. i'd pay him 100 million to make me a sandwich.
Mario, no one wants your fat ass and big mouth on Idol. They don't have wide enough angle camera lenses to fit you on anyway.
YOU WISH
AND YOU DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT MUSIC BITCH
Well……he is Jewish? I'm pretty sure……no offence….but, everyone knows. Own it!!
Re: BITCH PLEASE!!! – Quality programming at reasonable prices
Re: BITCH PLEASE!!! – I think you like me
Wanna go steady?
if they wanted you, they would have called. meaning that they dont want you. they would rather pay $100million for someone than have you for free. what does that tell you? stop being so desperate & begging for stuff, like work and dates. pathetic…
Re: weeeener – LOL! I`m with you on that one..
I was going leave a critical comment, but reading the responses here I think Ill just say.. AMEN!
For free!!?? you would have to pay me big money pigface to watch your fattard ass!!arghhhh!!
DON'T LET HIM REPLACE SIMON.
AND PEREZ, GIVE UP. YOU WILL NEVER..WHY DO I KEEP GOING? YOU KNOW DEEP DOWN THE TRUTH.
you would do it for free because you are worth nothing. you are a guy who writes a blog. you have no talent. give it up.
Of course you would do it for free… Your a FAME WHORE!!!
Parasite Hilton thinks he's having the last laugh because we all come here, which raises his hits, which in turn generates ad revenue. But that's fleeting; I personally would be mortified if I had to face how much contempt people have for me. Mario on Idol? Only if they want immediate cancellation. That twat would be the literal death of that show.
Mario…please focus on what you do best…you are a blogger…your core fans can tell when you blog…and we can tell when Barbara and company blog…you need to come back to work…you are not updating the site enough. American Idol is your "waterfall" stick to the rivers and streams you are accustomed to…
Howard Rules
Stern's dreaming to think they'd even
Stern's dreaming to think they'd even WANT him!
i just dont think he should replace simon. i think it would suck. he's so ugly to begin with. i dont want to see his ugly face and hair on tv all the time. and he wants 100 million?! bitch plz! next candidate!
perez you sound so lame and desperate please stop. They are NOT going to choose you so stop making yourself sound like a jackass please
He JOKED about it all day yesterday and still is today. He would be the best but it will never happen, too bad. He would bring millions of new viewers too!
Perez should really stop trying to compare himself to Howard.
Howard is the King of all Media! Perez is queen of NOTHING!!!
And everyone who says this website is going down hill fast is 100% right!
Can we PLEASE stop spreading this b.s. story? Howard himself started it and got his agent to spread it to outlets stupid and incompetent enough to pick it up. It's contract negotiation time, NO ONE'S looking for Howard for anything and he needs some attention.
Now it gives him something to blather about to kill four hours of radio. Maybe if he put a little effort into his radio show, they'd want him back and he wouldn't have to pretend that he has other job offers. It's pathetic that he's come to this.
Yeah that makes sense: pay someone $100 million to visually repulse the audience week after week. Not gonna happen you ugly fu*ker.
Just wondering what he knows about music talent. Same thing goes for Ellen, what do either of them know about music???????
Will stern bring his cross eyed wife on the show and let everyone criticize her looks the way he criticizes everyone else.
If he comes on, I turn off. Seriously, do we really need a porn-driven promoter on a family show?
Once a jew….always a jew….greedy - and contrary to what others are saying. HE WASN'T KIDDING. This is one man who should never be allowed on prime time. He's a disgace. When Simon is demeaning, he does so because people aren't seeing what the real truth is with respect to their voices, and he's 100% correct all the time.
When HS is demeaning, he's just being a pig and evil because he can and he enjoys being mean. (Mario and HS would get along great - although Mario would probably run crying at the first gay joke.
Just plane nasty.
Yeah I dont think he will really do it- And Perez they already have one gay judge on there now… I think that they need someone who actually is in the music business besides Randy…. It is going to end up a Fucking Karoke Show
Re: specigirl – Oh honey….time to join the real world. Not by a long shot is he kidding.
Quit jokingly (but seriously) going for this job. You would be fucking terrible at it. You have absolutely no presence or personality needed to sparkle on that crap show….AND THEY WOULD NEVER ASK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You do ok by this blog, stick to what u r good at….and suckin dick!
I WILL NOT WATCH AMERICAN IDOL AGAIN IF PEREZ WAS ONE OF THE JUDGE. HOWARD STERN WOULD BE FUNNY~BUT DON'T CARE FOR HIM-ONCE PAULA LEFT- IT WENT DOWN HILL.
omg there are only about half a dozen people i would loathe to watch more than simon cowell and this guy tops that list, he is a retarded creepazoid with a booby fixation… None of the men would ever win AI and he would be on the sidelines going "i didnt like your song but can we get a better look at your tata's.." to all the women…. he is like the worst person to judge talent since he has none whatsoever
Stern is an arrogant ***hole. I dont want to see his ugly face on Idol.
You would be too annoying.
Mario, no one wants to see your fat, fashion challenged ass on TV. Even for free.
"If you're good at something, don't do it for free."
"And like we said — PEREZ will do it for free! Call us!"
Guess thats fitting, as Perez isn't good at anything, not even writing a shitty web site…
Perez you are such an asshole. Did you really LISTEN to what he said??
It was a FUCKING JOKE. Holy CRAP. It is so hard to read what you post now since you SKEW it you MORON.
hes ugly .. i wouldnt tune in to see him ..
Howard certainly has a pair here. Did Simon even make this much, or is Stern throwing it out there to see if it sticks? I'm glad he's at least thrown himself into the fray. It's getting interesting already.
that's my boff!
Howard Stern totally ROCKS.
