Radio shock jock Howard Stern confirmed this morning on his SiriusXM radio show that he will be returning to NBC's AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. The 59-year-old self-proclaimed King of All Media will once again serve as a judge on the talent competition's upcoming seventh season.
"It started out as a goof. Now it's becoming a job," Stern said on this morning's show. "I am very excited to be going back to America's Got Talent. I will go back [for] one more season."
He went on to explain that while it was not an easy decision, his desire to remain in the spotlight outweighed his desire for additional free time.
