Jaime Jungers, Loredana Jolie Ferriolo and Jamie Grubbs came into the studio today to participate in the Howard Stern Tiger Woods Beauty Pageant.

The three girls answered questions and discussed their affair with Tiger Woods. There was to be a 4th contestant, Gary spoke to Joslyn James and she was set to appear but she dropped out. Gary also spoke to Rachel Uchitel but she was unable to discuss anything due to financial reasons.

Contestant #1 – Jamie Jungers “Jamie Juices” – She said that Tiger was the biggest penis she ever had (close to 9 inches), first black guy she slept with, he wanted anal from her but she denied and he blew a load on her chest. Tiger called her Jamie Juices. Her ex-fiancée is the one who told the media about Jamie banging Tiger. When Jamie asked Tiger to help her out with some money, Tiger said no and Jamie walked telling him that he didn’t care for her. She was with him when he got the call about his father dying.

Contestant #2 – Loredana Jolie Ferriolo “LD” – Met Tiger at a matchmaking service. He paid $15,000 for the service. Tiger got other girls to have orgy during his sex with her. She has also been with Bruce Willis and Michael Jordan. She said Tiger was the better lover. Says Tiger liked to watch his friend have sex with girls. Whenever Tiger came to NY, he would text her to hook up. In the end, they just drifted apart. Tiger wanted her to toss his salad but wouldn’t.

Contestant #3 – Jamie Grubbs “Skinny Fat”- She came right in, asked to cue to auto-tune and sang a lyric from Cher “do you believe in life after love”. She met him at a club as well but said he had no skill [in picking up girls]. She said neither of them said they loved each other but she said she felt feelings were definitely there. Took 3 days before he kissed her. Was with Tiger for 2 1/2 years but didn’t know Tiger was married until about a year in. Also no rubber during sex. She felt the relationship was very passionate. Says that Tiger wasn’t 9 inches but def more than 7 – more gurth than length. He never tried anal with her and nothing kinky happened. She felt Tiger was jealous if he suspected she was out with others.

During the press conference the girls were asked what one question could you send to Tiger, they all said they would like about wanting an apology from Tiger.

The news has been all over the place with the rumor that American Idol was in talks with Howard Stern to take over for Simon’s spot on American Idol.

Howard doesn’t need American Idol, American Idol needs Howard Stern. Howard had his first ever Cockeyoke contest today in which artists came onto the show and performed in a contest for a cash prize. These groups knew that they would be performing live on the Howard Stern Show but of course there would be some twist in the contest. Do I really even need to explain the name Cockeyoke…the groups had to sing into a mic being held in place near Sal the Stockbroker’s cock. The level of talent that appeared on the show was amazing including past American Idol contestants, bands with offers on the table and well established groups.

The groups Howard had on all did really well and this contest was not only fun but the groups sang songs that legitimately could be heard on radio or TV. WIth the success of Cockeyoke you may now see this move to HowardTV and have a life of it’s own.

Howard Stern has not been shy in telling everyone know that he does have musical talent. Howard Stern has helped launch the careers of many artists, including Bon Jovi and Sugar Ray. Howard Stern also had The Foo Fighters perform Everlong acoustic in studio which turned out to be a major hit for the band in which many stations picked up the acoustic version.

People may be off put by the name Howard Stern but his influence on media and the entertainment we consume daily has no doubt been influenced by Howard Stern.

Penthouse Pet of the Month for February 2010 Heidi Baron came in to the Howard Stern Show today.

I have to catch the replay on the West Coast feed and yes I am excited…just check out her cover! The only other pic I could find of her on PenthouseMagazine.com was the same pic used on the cover. Can’t wait to hear more about this Penthouse Pet…well actually most of these girls are annoying when they start to speak so lets just hope she’s not a total bomb on air, least she’s good to look at.

EDIT – What I heard on the replay:
Howard was super excited to have Heidi on the show since she was a tall, blonde German hottie. Before she came in Howard talked about how in the pre-interview Heidi said that she had no issue being naked since all the woman in Germany walk around naked. Once in studio Heidi Baron confirmed that getting photographed nude for Penthouse was no big deal since she was comfortable being naked since she was German.

We learned that Heidi Baron was an exchange student and lived in Texas for some time till returning to Germany and becoming a Dental Hygenist. Howard said “Can you believe going to the dentist and seeing this hot piece of ass!” even Robin joked that there must have been a line out the door with men waiting to be taken care of by Heidi.

Heidi moved back to Texas to start a new life and ended up living with a college “frat boy” for some time till he dumped her and threw her out. She said that all he cared about was hanging around with his “boys” and playing beer pong. Shit, if I was hooking up with Heidi I’d spend more attention to her since she’d be the one giving me oral…that’s how I look at it.

Heidi has tried anal but says in order for it to work you have to lube it up. She complained that some guys think it’s like a pussy and just try to put it in but you need to make it moist. Since being sexually free she also told some stories about having a threesome while her boyfriend watched as well as having a thing for older guys, she’s 21. When she was 17 her much older boyfriend took her to a swingers club in Germany…she didn’t do anything but her boyfriend at the time swung with 2 other females.

Spit or swallow? Heidi doesn’t swallow…don’t remember the reason but I could live with that.

The only unfortunate thing about the interview was learning that Jared Leto, Robin’s dream boy, met and had sex with Heidi on several occasions. Heidi Baron said Jared was a waste of time and no respect, he never took her anywhere and he only called her to come over to have sex. She said the sex was good but after awhile she got tired of being used. Also she confirmed that Jared has a huge penis…”like a black guy” she said “I took it all, even in my mouth” “Us Germans love sausage…I practice at Beerfest.” Something tells me that if Jared was nice to her and took her out once in awhile she would be ready to marry the guy.

She was told to take of her clothes while riding the sybian and being a German she bought all of the crews lies(She also claimes her breasts are real). When Howard asked if Gary should wear a mask she looked at Gary and said “It’s okay I will close my eyes and pretend he’s not there!” Gotta love those German hotties! Hedi Baron was a great guest in my eyes, would love to see and hear more.

Alex was named Miss Howard TV January 2010!

Reby Sky aka NY Giants Girl was named Miss Howard TV December 2009!

Not cool. When Artie Lange was first rushed to hospital there were many speculations including that Artie had stabbed himself. Being that this is the internet it’s hard to know who to believe since people post saying “I heard from someone who knows etc…” so when I read that someone had heard that Artie had stabbed himself it was difficult to believe. Today the New York Post, Page Six reports that Artie was rushed to the hospital after attempting suicide via stabbing himself.

Troubled comic Artie Lange landed in the hospital after stabbing himself nine times in an apparent suicide attempt, sources told The Post. Lange’s frantic mom called 911 Saturday morning after she entered his Hoboken apartment and found the bloodied funnyman, a law-enforcement source said. Lange sustained six “hesitation wounds” and three deep plunges. A source close to Lange’s management team confirmed that the Howard Stern sidekick stabbed himself, adding that his mother had come to visit him that day to drop off food. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding. “We all have our demons,” Stern said on-air this week, referring to Lange’s past battles with addiction. “Artie has given this show tremendous moments of great comedy. He’s a tremendous contributor. He is a good man. Don’t forget how great he is.”

Dam Artie…we all know you have demons just don’t let them take you over.

Full Article on Page Six

On January 2, 2010 TMZ reported that Artie Lange was rushed to the hospital.

A rep for Lange tells TMZ:

“I can confirm that Artie is in the hospital. Artie has chosen to keep all information on this matter between him and his doctor. There will be no further comment.”

I did not want to comment on the situation to see if any more news would be released. The Howard Stern Show returns from vacation tomorrow, Monday January 4, 2010. Artie last went into work around December 7 or 8 2009 in which there was some speculation about wether or not he was in rehab or gone on a bender like he has in the past. Howard refused to comment and would just say “It’s Artie’s story to tell.”

Being a fan of the show I do like having Artie there in studio, but Artie himself has always been a dark character in that he is troubled deeply with drugs.

There are many speculations about his recent headline making event of being admitted into the hospital, not sure what to believe or even if Howard Stern will make a statement on Monday’s show…only time will tell.

Some say Artie is in the hospital due to a drug related incident, others say he couldn’t had a panic attack. Some call BS on the entire incident and say it’s hype for the show…a cliff hanger so to speak while there is also talk that Artie has left the Howard Stern Show completely.

I would like to believe that Artie missing work along with this recent hospitalization is all hype for the show but it just doesn’t make sense. Not sure if Artie missing work is legit in that he calls out or if he has some sort of deal in which he has extra days off and they just turn it into a bit. If Artie in fact does call out as often as he does than it’s a slap in the face to Howard and to the company. Artie himself always comments about growing up listening to Howard and how much he respects him and owes everything to the show…but he doesn’t show it.

I’m sure Artie Lange gets a generous paycheck and it’s the reason he has stayed with the show for the amount of time he has already put in. In the past he’s had several outbreaks and has even fought with several staffers including having words with Howard Stern.

Has Artie Lange quit the show? He probably quit mentally a long time ago. Again not sure if the hospitalization is good timing for the start of 2010 for the Howard Stern Show or if Artie is in serious condition but I wouldn’t be surprised if he was given an ultimatum by Sirius to clean up or to get out. There are many that would beg to get airtime in the chair that Artie sits in, yet it usually seems that Artie takes it for granted.

Artie being rushed to the hospital doesn’t answer questions about wether or not Artie is still working for the Howard Stern Show but it does bring up the question as to wether or not he will appear on the show come Monday morning.

Artie if you are truly sick and in trouble we wish you well.

Howard Stern and Beth Ostrosky attend the Los Angeles Clippers vs New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden on December 18, 2009 in New York City.

Howard Stern is threatening to leave Sirius XM Radio Inc. now that the shock jock and the satellite radio provider are getting set to enter contract talks in 2010.

That threat probably seems less daunting to Sirius than it once would have. Sirius originally wanted Stern so badly that it gave him the most lucrative radio contract ever, a five-year deal that started in 2006 and paid him $500 million in cash and stock.

Today, he doesn’t have many places left to go—at least if he wants another huge payday.

Free radio stations are struggling with steep drops in advertising and high debt loads, and probably can’t pay top dollar to get Stern back to the medium where he began. He also likely would chafe at being censored again after enjoying the freedom of satellite radio, where his racy banter hasn’t been subject to federal restrictions on language and content.

He can’t switch to another satellite radio provider—Sirius swallowed the only other one, XM, last year.

So if Stern, 55, does re-sign with Sirius, it’s likely to be for less this time around.

Sirius nearly had to file for bankruptcy protection this year and is still trying to reduce costs. The company is feeling the brunt of weak auto sales, which deliver many of its new customers. And it faces new threats from emerging commercial-free rivals such as Internet radio.

For these reasons—and because Stern has warned other times that he might quit or retire—his latest threat rings hollow to some analysts.

“It’s probably positioning for contract negotiations,” said Brett Harriss, an analyst at Gabelli & Co., whose parent Gamco Investors Inc. owns 1.1 million shares of Sirius. “I don’t think he would give up his bullhorn.”

Sirius’ chief executive, Mel Karmazin, told The Associated Press in a recent interview that he will work hard to retain Stern, but the company would not offer more detailed comments. Stern’s agent, Don Buchwald, did not respond to requests for comment.

Stern made his name on traditional or “terrestrial” radio. While Sirius mainly makes its money from selling subscriptions, the money that flowed to Stern on traditional radio came from syndication rights. In that setup, radio stations pay companies that distribute programs such as Stern’s.

Many of those radio stations have struggled since Stern left the free airwaves, and the recession compounded the problems. In the first nine months of the year, radio advertising revenue fell by 21 percent to $11.8 billion, according to the Radio Advertising Bureau.

Citadel Broadcasting Corp., the nation’s third-largest operator of radio stations, filed for bankruptcy protection Sunday. Other big station owners also are wrestling with debts, and the syndication division of the largest station owner, Clear Channel Communications Inc., already is believed to be paying Rush Limbaugh $400 million over an eight-year contract.

“Who else can afford Howard Stern?” Harriss said.

When Stern signed with Sirius, the company trailed XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. in the race for customers. It badly needed a marquee name to attract subscribers to its service, which delivers 130 radio channels anywhere in the country for $6.99 a month to $19.99 a month, depending on the package.

Now after buying XM for $3.3 billion, Sirius has 18.5 million subscribers, down slightly from a peak of 19 million at the end of last year. Sirius’ radio lineup beyond Stern includes Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, NFL games and Major League Baseball. Half of its channels are music and free of commercials, while the rest air sports, talk shows, news, entertainment, traffic and weather.

The company still has never posted a net profit. Revenue was nearly flat in the last quarter, and Sirius remains pressured to cut costs. Sirius narrowly avoided bankruptcy protection 10 months ago by getting $530 million in financing from Liberty Media Corp. Sirius had to give a 40 percent ownership stake to Liberty, which is controlled by satellite mogul John Malone.

As Sirius tries to get its finances in order, it must cope with threats from emerging technologies, such as Internet radio services that also deliver radio programming without commercials.

The company has been trying to cut costs. Sirius’ programming expenses in the past four quarters fell 18 percent from the total paid by Sirius and XM in the previous year, when they were still separate companies. Sirius has eliminated duplicative radio programs since it absorbed XM and found ways to reduce “on-air talent costs.”

Given the climate, if Stern returns to Sirius, “he’s not going to get $500 million again,” said Miller Tabak analyst David Joyce. Robert Eatman, the agent for Sirius talents Opie & Anthony and rapper Nick Cannon, agreed that Stern is “probably not worth” $500 million to Sirius now.

But the question will be just how much less Sirius can pay and still keep Stern.

Stern accounts for about $80 million of Sirius’ annual programming costs, which have totaled $365 million over the past four quarters. The $80 million covers Stern’s salary, wages for his staff and production and operating expenses, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The remainder of the contract was paid in stock.

There are no independent ratings available to track the popularity of Stern’s show, which airs Mondays through Thursdays from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. But he has been so important to Sirius that he was the sole radio talent mentioned in SEC filings from 2006 through 2009 as a party whose failure could hurt Sirius’ business. (Automakers were also among the listed entities.) In his first year at Sirius, Stern received a stock bonus worth $82.9 million because Sirius’ subscriber count exceeded an agreed-upon target by more than 2 million.

Stern could leave to start a new venture, perhaps a subscription service that sends his show to PCs and mobile devices. Sirius already streams Stern’s shows online and through the iPhone. Or he could explore more options in cable TV, where his first pay-per-view special, “Howard Stern’s Negligee and Underpants Party,” was offered in 1988.

Stern also could retire.

“Howard has the creative and business freedom to do what he wants to. He can just about write his own ticket in a number of areas,” said Tom Taylor, executive news editor of Radio-Info.com, which tracks the radio industry. “He doesn’t need to do anything. He’s going to pay the rent fine.”
