Howard Stern Talks Trash On Idol: “F—in’ Karaoke Contest”

While American Idol’s producers refuse to discuss the possibility of Howard Stern replacing Simon Cowell with reporters, tabs are taking the shock jock’s acknowledgment that he’d consider doing the show as confirmation they’re in talks. “There’s not a better job on the planet than judging a f—–g karaoke contest,” he said on his Sirius radio program Monday, adding that he’d “tase” Ellen DeGeneres if she danced and “smack Randy Jackson’s belly every time he opens his dopey mouth.” Bet they can’t wait, Howie, but what do you think of previous winners? ” I wouldn’t even put through that good looking kid who won, that Kris Allen. He never would have even been through…Carrie Underwood, I would’ve told her to lose weight…Hey Fantasia…little boys are scared that you are going to sit on them. You’re out. Honey, you look like you stepped out of a Haitian earthquake.” Tasteful! While his arrival might make for some must-see TV, we can’t help but wonder if Ellen will be enough of a chuckle factory for everyone involved.

So who will take Simon’s seat if not Fartman? Unless Simon Fuller is truly determined to replace seasoned music veterans with professional comedians, it’s more like to wind up an exec like former Sony Music honcho Tommy Mottola or Madonna manager Guy Oseary, whom a New York Daily News source puts as the front-runner. “His competition just can’t live up to his level of experience, and the people behind the show are slowly starting to realize it…People really only know [Mottola] as Mariah Carey’s big bad ex.” Hey, at least that’s something, though! The only music CEOs with name recognition tend to be rappers, and we haven’t heard Diddy’s name tossed around for a while.

So this is what Beyonce wears to bed with her husband Jay-Z every night. How...common of her! The singer strolled out on to her balcony in Brazil to wave hello to fans in a crop top and lil’ sleeping shorts, looking almost like us in our over-sized tee and boxer shorts belonging to our ex. The only thing we like more than her outfit is that the super-famous singer had no problem greeting fans after just rolling out of bed. We’d like to see Lady Gaga try that!

Beyonce’s recovering from an embarrassing in-concert tumble that she took while singing “Irreplaceable” to a huge crowd over the weekend. Maybe she just feels really comfortable being vulnerable with Brazilians?  [Photo: SplashNewsOnline]

Kim’s blush-colored, tight-fitting tank dress weakened opponents.

Think Kim Kardashian stayed casual all weekend for boyfriend Reggie Bush’s Super Bowl win? Come on, you know Kimmy K. better than that. She wasn’t all blazer and jeans, opting for a Saturday evening get-down getup that we can only imagine had Reggie Bush rushing to retire for the night.

Dancing With The Stars finalist and former NFL player Warren Sapp was arrested Saturday in Miami for allegedly choking his girlfriend of two years. He was released from jail on a $1,500 bond on Sunday - the lucky duck was sprung just in time to watch the Superbowl.

Sapp was in Miami to cover the game for the NFL Network. The victim claims that after a night of partying, she went back to the hotel room she shared with Sapp and when he arrived hours later, he forcibly tried to pull her out of the room and threw her down. She claims she was choked, thrown to the ground and sustained a leg injury as a result. Dancing With The Stars has become a breeding ground these days for celebs with a penchant for crime. Fellow NFL alum Michael Irvin is being sued for raping a woman, and Lawrence Taylor was arrested after a traffic accident in 2009.  Dear ABC, may we suggest a theme for your next show, Dancing Behind Bars?

Justin Timberlake visited the hallowed halls of Harvard Friday to humbly accept the Hasty Pudding Club’s 2010 Man Of The Year award in the gracious, dignified manner one associates with this institution of knowledge (Anne Hathaway won Woman Of The Year last month). “This is cooler than any Grammy or Emmy or anything I could have ever thought of,” he said at the event. “Thank you.” Among the accomplishments celebrated at the event was his status as a “triple threat”: “he sings, he dances, he goes straight to DVD.” And thanks to SNL, he wasn’t bothered by the boxing of his nipples. “Funny enough, every time I’ve hosted SNL I’ve ended up in drag at least once,” he said. “I love stuff like this.” Girlfriend Jessica Biel was reportedly on hand to enjoy him being the subject of public humiliation for a change. Watch JT make merry in the gallery below.

Ah, the Lingerie Bowl - America’s most treasured annual sporting event. As you already know, surely, each year the finest females in the country gather to play football in lacy lingerie while millions of men and their disgruntled wives look on via Pay-Per-View.

We can’t really even pretend to feign interest in the Lingerie Bowl - we barely make it through the Super Bowl (we lump ourselves into the “Yay! Cool commercials!” group) as it is. But bikini pictures are bikini pictures, and surely someone will want to stare for seconds, minutes even, at the above picture of a woman tossing a football in a way that makes it looks like it’s coming out of her butt. Ah, America.

Tiger Woods left the Gentle Path rehab clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi with wife Elin Nordegren today, according to Radar. While all we could see for ourselves was that Woods may not have been shaving, tabloids have claimed golf star’s weeks-long stint involved plenty of group and individual therapy, a polygraphed confession to his wife (who supposedly came down to the clinic earlier this week) and absolutely no video games whatsoever. Repeat: no video games.

Though Nordegren’s recent refusal to wear a wedding ring gave credence to rumors she’s was planning a divorce, she has since reportedly changed her mind, with the couple now trying to repair their relationship. But while some quality time with their children is next on their agenda, it might not be long before Tiger’s back on the golf course. Australia’s Herald-Sun said the athlete may even attend this month’s Accenture Match Play Championship in Arizona, with the event’s director saying Tiger’s participation “would be terrific” even if he couldn’t confirm nor deny. Don’t feel bad about that, dude—it’s not like anyone’s been able to officially confirm anything involving Tiger since this scandal broke.

Lady Gaga isn’t the only fashion-forward pop singer and don’t you forget it! Rihanna took the stage at last night’s Pepsi Super Bowl Fan Jam in an outfit that split the difference between lingerie and shoulder-padded bodysuit, tastefully accessorized with goggles and a sword. Click here to watch her sing “Russian Roulette” and other hits at last night’s concert, as well as performances by Justin Bieber and Timbaland.

Well, that’s one way to forget Sarah Marshall. Old co-stars Russell Brand and Jason Segel locked lips at the Stand For Haiti concert in LA yesterday, a benefit featuring Tenacious D, The Shins, Aimee Mann and Black Francis of The Pixies. Too bad Jack Black didn’t get in on this, right?

Considering Katy Perry’s enthusiasm for same-sex flirtation, the smooch probably guarantees Segel a spot at their wedding, which the comedian has joked might be clothing-optional. “We are going to do the wedding naked! All the families will be naked! We’re still deciding what to do.” Judging from his revealing performance in Marshall, Segel shouldn’t have any qualms if they do decide to go nude.

Pamela Anderson was left with egg on her boobs when only 20 people attended a launch party for her A*Muse fashion line in Miami Beach yesterday. Why the lack of enthusiasm? Was it designs like the dress she wore to the event? Come on, what lady doesn’t want to wear a dress that magically hikes its skirt up and curls its neckline down for you? Imagine the time you’ll save on that weekend bender! It only cost $25 to see the show, and for a measly $19,975 to $49,975 more, you could get the “VIP Penthouse Package” and party personally with Pamela! You wouldn’t have to worry about getting her attention, either—there apparently wouldn’t have been much competition for it. No wonder she’s thinking about moving to the UK.
