I never have listened to Howard Stern on the radio so can only guess what he is really like from any news coverage of him.

Do any of you listen to him?

When Howard had his TV show several years ago, his shtick was to ask his female guests to take off their shirts. Some actually obliged. I don't think that's the type of person Idol should have as a judge of young women. As the saying goes, "A tiger can't change its stripes". No pun intended toward Tiger Woods, but probably true in his case too.

I used to listen to him every now and then years ago long before he went to Sirius. He has strippers on his show. That's why I don't believe this is true. He is the polar opposite of what Idol represents.

He's basically a SHOCK JOCK, and has built his reputation on being pretty filthy. I agree, he's not family friendly fare.

That would totally pul me away from the show.. bad enough without Simon, but with Howard.. no way.

Rosie.. I'd say.. disgusting or without merit.

Simon seems disinterested,imo, this season most of the time. I agree that Ellen adds nothing of value in terms of evaluating the auditioners' singing. The addition of Stern would just finish the show; it wouldn't last more than one more season if someone as controversial, vulgar, and rude as Howard Stern joined AI. Yikes, what a bad idea!

I read that he was saying he'd need a boatload of money to be on the show.

Stern did not bring the listeners to Sirus that was expected. He is only still on the air because they would have to pay him anyway. Sure his fans are dedicated, but they are not as huge as had been hoped. This seems to be a self promotion rumor since Stern has mocked AI for being a karaoke show.

If Stern comes to the show I really will not watch...he disgusts me and I just don't want to see him at any time. I agree, seems like self-promotion to me too.

The tabloids are reporting this morning that Simon is now engaged to his girlfriend Mezhgan Hussainy.

I feel a little bad for his ex-girlfriend Terri because if you go look up her interviews from about the time they broke up, the reason she stated was Simon never wants to be married or have children, and she had already given him 6 years. It the same old story really. It's not that he doesn't ever want to get married, it's that he didn't want to marry "her".

Naja, I heard about Simon's engagement last week. His fiancee is the makeup artist or wardrobe designer (or something to that effect) on Idol.

Well it's today the gossip rags are all a flitter about it. All I knew is they met on the set of Idol quite a few years ago.
