There has been some Hollywood Gossip going around reporting that the producers of America’s Got Talent show have approached radio superstar Howard Stern to take up the role of Piers Morgan. Piers has since bowed out of the gig so as to engage more in his new CNN show.
During the ‘The X Factor’ viewing party in the Hollywood Hills, Simon Cowell was questioned by MTV News. He dodged the questions about Stern being a replacement of Piers by saying that people will have to wait and see what’s in the offing. Stern was overheard telling his satellite-radio listeners that he had been shortlisted for a possible take-over for that popular gig. He said that there’s nothing better to do in this earth than being judge for a karaoke concert.
Stern said he would relinquish the chance to quit his radio show only if Fox could offer good bucks. It is after his radio announcement that “Idol” quelled the Hollywood Gossip by saying they haven’t even started searching for a new judge.
Stern quoted a high salary package of around $100 million which NBC is said not to be willing to offer. Nevertheless, a trusted source hints that NBC could move the competition to New York to enable stern take up both his previous role of radio host and being a judge.
