Simon Cowell Likes Howard Stern For America's Got Talent

Well it looks like shock jock Howard Stern has got X Factor USA host Simon Cowell in his corner for the judging position on America’s Got Talent. The position was vacated by Piers Morgan, who went on to do his own show.

Simon said that he likes the idea of Howard taking Piers’ place on the show, but also revealed that he doesn’t really have a say in the matter.

In a new interview with Access Hollywood, Simon said, “I like him. There’s a lot of people who make decisions on this stuff. Money’s got to work, schedules have got to work. There might be a few twists and turns still.”

Interesting. But do they have anyone else in mind? Simon’s not telling!

He added, “I can’t tell you. That’s neither a yes or a no.”

It has been rumored that the show has already been in some negotiations with Howard over taking over the judging role on the show.

Would you watch America’s Got Talent if Howard Stern were judging the competition? Do you think he would be polarizing enough to bring in viewers? I know I would watch!

  1. Personally I hate Howard Stern and feel he would drag the show down into the trash pit where he likes to dwell.

    I don’t think I would enjoy the show with him on it.

  3. I think Howard Stern would bring a new freshness to the show.  I think we should give him a shot and see how it works out.  Everyone loves Ellen but she sucked on American Idol.  Maybe since everyone hates Stern, he’ll be a pleasant surprise.

  4. They would be insane not to get Howard Stern, America’s Got Talent is a poor man’s American Idol.  Honestly, I don’t watch any of that television garbage, it disgusts me to think of fat American’s on their sofas scarfing down doritos and watching that drivel; however, I WILL watch it just because Howard Stern will be on it, despite it’s second class standing next to more popular “talent shows”, and there is probably close to a million people who share that same sentiment (literally, a million, at least).
