Howard Stern says he’s leaving ‘America’s Got Talent’
LOS ANGELES — It looks like Howard Stern is leaving “America’s Got Talent” — or, at least he says he is.
The judge of the NBC competition show revealed the news on his radioshow Wednesday morning that he would leave after the current season, which wraps up this summer, ends.
“I told them, this is my last season,” Stern said on his SiriusXM show. “I am going though my own career evaluation right now. I’m just too f-ing busy.”
Stern has been on “America’s Got Talent” for four seasons. The radio host, however, previously admitted that he “really did struggle” in the decision to sign on for the current season.
Don’t worry, though — Stern always has a replacement in mind, one that has extensive experience in judging talent competition shows. He threw Simon Cowell’s name into the ring, who served as a judge on “Britain’s Got Talent.”
NBC has no comment.
