That's the problem with AGT. There's no real tension between the judges. Howard got to sit next to long-time buddy Sharon Osbourne and long-time fan Howie Mandel. Now he's going to sit next to long-time pal Carmen Electra???? Geez. The show would be great if they got this diva-ish 20-something female hottie who annoyed the hell out of Howard. That would make for great entertainment. Seriously. Howard is at his best when he's no comfortable.
Totally agree. The show needs to hire someone who is more famous and and has a bigger following than Howard. Imagine if someone new comes on the show and the ratings go through the roof! Then imagine if everyone cheers for that new person, and then imagine if that new person calls howard out for being the old out of touch douche he is, and the crowd cheered louder. I don't know how howard could go on in a situation like that. Live mental breakdown on TV maybe? But it would crush him.
“Howard very much wants to come back,” the source says. “But he is waiting to see who else is going to be on the panel.”
I don't think Howard has ever been good in front of the camera especially when it comes to belittling others.... His looks and visual gawkiness are not condusive to getting away with that and he knows it.
I doubt that AGT ratings will go back up whether Carmen Electra is a judge and/or if Howard returns. It would be great if AGT paid Carmen more $ than Howard and featured her in the show's ads.
I agree. NY Post? C'mon, this is Buchwald spin at its finest: "Neither judges Howard Stern nor Howie Mandel have yet been confirmed for next season. 'Howard very much wants to come back,' the source says. 'But he is waiting to see who else is going to be on the panel.'â€
how is she stealing when Beff would gladly give him up? There are probably escalator clauses in the prenup, and i bet 5 years is one of them. The only question is do they kick in after the real wedding date or the fake October date... (And the prenup is probably written as well as Sterns first Sirius contract. Im imagining something like 'If Beth has a kid' instead of 'If Beth has HOWARD'S kid')
This is weird. Simon added a 19/20-year-old (Demi Lovato) and a 30-year-old (Britney). Why would he add an over-the-hill 40-year-old?
at least Carmen Electra knows a lot about showbiz and i hope they get rid of howard stern since he knows nothing about showbiz or performing.
