Howard Stern may be trimming his staff, but his paycheck is telling a very different story.

Despite the layoffs and the shrinking show schedule, new details reveal just how much money the shock jock is still pulling in behind the scenes.

Howard Stern’s staggering earnings are coming to light, painting a very different picture from the one his former staffers are currently living.

While a dozen of his staffers are packing up their desks and heading home, Howard Stern is walking away with an absolutely jaw-dropping paycheck that most people could only dream of. The radio titan renewed his contract with SiriusXM back in December 2025, following a previous five-year deal that netted him a staggering $500 million.

Crunch the numbers, and Stern’s past $100 million annual salary paired with his four-hour weekly airtime works out to roughly $8,000 per minute, an eye-watering figure by any standard.

Even more shocking, that number could actually climb even higher once his frequent vacations and lengthy summer breaks are factored into the equation, according to Page Six.

The jaw-dropping estimate comes less than a week after Stern fired almost a dozen staffers during a Zoom meeting, just as he is getting ready to cut his nearly always crowded show back to just one new episode a week later this fall.

The Layoffs Come Just Months After His New ‘Flexibility’ Deal

5

The timing of the cuts is raising eyebrows, especially since Howard Stern signed a brand-new SiriusXM contract just months earlier. He inked the three-year deal in December after months of speculation about his future on the air, telling fans he had finally “figured out a way to have it all.”

At the time, Stern credited the agreement with giving him more “flexibility,” promising both continued airtime and more personal freedom. He even joked that he was never bored, insisting he stayed “busy every minute” despite wanting more days off, as reported by the Blast.

Now, that same flexibility appears to be translating into fewer original episodes and a smaller production team, leaving some to wonder if his definition of “having it all” came at his staff’s expense.

Howard Stern Went Viral After Pranking Fans With A Fake Host

5

Before the recent layoffs, Howard Stern found himself at the center of a different kind of buzz. Amid mounting speculation about his show’s cancellation, he pulled off a stunt that briefly convinced listeners a new host had taken over entirely.

The Blast reported that the show kicked off with the resounding voice of Andy Cohen, who said he was now in charge of the show under a new program called ‘Andy 100.’

Cohen was convincing in his role, arguing the handoff occurred in a quicker-than-expected manner, until it was finally exposed as a prank by Stern and longtime partner Robin Quivers.

Some reports suggested the stunt, along with the swirling cancellation rumors, may have actually been a calculated move by Stern and his team to keep him relevant in the headlines.

The Host’s Political Views May Have Complicated Contract Talks

5

Howard Stern’s SiriusXM future wasn’t just about money. His political criticism of President Donald Trump was reportedly a factor in the reasons for his contract dispute, as he had turned into an outspoken Democrat who was against Trump.

According to sources, SiriusXM was apparently ready to offer Stern a deal he couldn’t refuse, and this means that they were looking to get him out the door without firing him. There also was a problem on the financial side with both sides trying to come up with an agreement, which further complicated his odds of remaining on the air.

Despite the rocky negotiations, Stern ultimately signed a new three-year deal in December, putting the cancellation rumors to rest, at least for the time being.

Howard Stern And Beth’s Love Story Has Endured Plenty Of Ups And Downs

5

Amid the legal drama surrounding his career, Howard Stern’s marriage to his wife, Beth, remains one of the more enduring and stable parts of his personal life. The couple tied the knot in 2008 after first meeting at a dinner party years earlier, back when Beth happened to be there on a date with someone else entirely.

Their relationship reached new heights over the years, with Howard famously re-proposing to Beth during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” in 2019, sweeping her off her feet all over again, as reported by The Blast.

The two even renewed their vows in an impromptu ceremony on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” that same year, further cementing their bond after more than a decade together as husband and wife.

Kim Kardashian‘s parenting is being defended by the ladies of “The View” in light of public concern about her daughter, North West.

The 13-year-old has been making headlines for risky fashion statements like hand piercings and attending events without her parents’ supervision.

Recently, British rapper Skepta raised alarm about the teenager’s presence and interactions during Paris Fashion Week.

In a fiery debate during Wednesday’s episode of the ABC talk show, the panelists expressed concern at the intense backlash North and Kardashian were getting over the piercings.

“If she and her kid decided that’s okay, why do you care? Leave this child alone. What’s your children doing?” Whoopi Goldberg slammed, leading the charge.

Speaking to her co-hosts, Goldberg explained that she believed her colleagues at the table are parents who allow their kids “to do what they’re gonna do when they think it’s time for them to do it.”

Alyssa Farah Griffin, who gave birth to her son months ago, shared her personal story of getting her second piercing when she was 14 behind her parents’ backs. She, however, urged that tattoos should be gotten when children are more grown, like 18 years of age.

North West Facing Immense ‘Pressure,’ ‘The View’ Declares

Panelist Sunny Hostin then turned the attention to how North might be feeling having a lot of eyes on her as the world forms opinions about every move she made.

When Joy Behar interjected, insinuating that the Kardashian-Jenner family might be enjoying the attention, Hostin fired back on “The View“:

“I don’t know. Maybe North doesn’t like it. I think we need to give a 13-year-old kid a break. She’s growing up under the spotlight. I can’t imagine having that kind of pressure on a 13 year old.”

The lawyer further noted that having global superstars like Kanye West and Kardashian doesn’t help matters for the 13-year-old.

Expert Dishes On Possible Scars In North’s Future

The defense from the women of “The View” comes after North’s enhancements drew the attention of medical experts who couldn’t help but give an opinion.

The eldest daughter of West and Kardashian has piercings on her hand, face, and lips. According to dermatologist Corey Hartman, this puts the teenager at risk of scarring, rejection, and possible permanent disfigurement.

As reported by The Blast, Hartman explained that North is particularly at risk of such brutal skin conditions, which could even lead to loss of bodily function given that she is melanated.

Kim Kardashian Fully Backs Her Daughter’s Fashion

Despite the medical warning, the SKIMS founder is fully on her daughter’s side, allowing the teenager to freely express herself whichever way she deems fit.

Kardashian explained during an appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that she has no intention of ever taking away North’s creativity. Also, she believes she is doing the best she can as a single parent of four children.

The reality star and West are parents to daughter North, 13, son Saint, 10, daughter Chicago, 8, and son Psalm, 7. The pair split in 2021 after seven years of marriage.

The billionaire entrepreneur then defended her daughter’s experimental nature. She noted that North used to dress as a tomboy but wanted to switch up her style to try a trend among her friends.

What Did Rapper Skepta Say About North West?

While Kardashian approves of her mini-me’s lifestyle, not everyone in the industry is pleased with how the teenager is always in the spotlight.

Such was the case when Skepta publicly condemned an interaction North had with an older man when she attended the Vetements Menswear Spring/Summer 2027 show.

The teenager was seen in a viral clip approaching an older man and extending her hand for a shake. However, he seemingly pulled her into a hug, after which they posed for photos.

The British artist was displeased, urging that North’s body language showed she wanted just a handshake. “My fans know I try to stay out of [people’s] business, but damn the way grown men, complete strangers, try to use North makes me sick,” he slammed, per The Blast.

When a fan critiqued that the interaction was seemingly harmless, Skepta emphasized that North was only 13 before urging people to protect their kids.

Though it’s billed as a sci-fi horror comedy, I wouldn’t consider 2024’s Ick a horror film. It’s a monster story, and it certainly has fun with Lovecraftian imagery (read: lots of tentacle violence), but if anything, it’s a comedy that leans into horror tropes rather than a horror flick that adds levity through comic relief.

With a real-life global pandemic still in recent memory, Ick also has fun with how people react to government mandates when the powers that be, at least as far as we know, are actually trying their best to protect their citizens. A lot of the humor comes from the fact that the citizens of Eastbrook refuse to stay confined to their homes. The titular Ick has been a presence for as long as they can remember, and they’ll be damned if they can’t go about their daily lives just because it suddenly becomes violent and starts killing everyone in its path.

Normalizing Something Horrible

When we’re first introduced to Hank Wallace (Brandon Routh), it’s the early 2000s, and he’s a high school football star destined for greatness, dating the girl of his dreams, Staci (Mena Suvari). During one of his games, he’s attacked by the Ick, a giant, tentacled, and seemingly sentient organism that lives beneath the town. Nobody believes him when he claims his life-altering injury, which requires him to wear a leg brace for the rest of his life, was caused by the Ick, and life goes on without him.

Between the early 2000s and present day, Hank becomes a shell of his former self. He never leaves his hometown of Eastbrook and now works as a high school science teacher. Staci ends up marrying former classmate Ted Kim (Peter Wong), and together they have a daughter named Grace (Malina Pauli Weissman). Hank has good reason to believe Grace may actually be his daughter, given her date of birth, his sexual history with Staci, and the fact that Grace looks nothing like her Asian father.

Shortly after collecting saliva samples from his students so he can secretly run a paternity test, the Ick, as he always suspected, becomes violent and slowly starts destroying the town. The Feds show up and advise all the citizens of Eastbrook to lock down, only to be met with immediate pushback. Prom is coming up, which is the big event none of the teenagers want to miss.

Given that we’re talking about kids and what’s considered by most to be a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence, they’re right to be apprehensive about government overreach. It’s the adults who act like children here, as they absolutely refuse to let their way of life be interrupted, consequences be damned.

From this point forward, Ick goes full bore into tentacle-driven madness, leading to the kind of third-act blowout that makes the Stranger Things finale look like a strawberry festival by comparison. It’s full-on Lovecraftian bedlam, but I still refuse to call Ick a horror movie. It never gets scary in the traditional sense, and most of the plot is driven by the sheer magnitude of CGI violence, panic, and constant allusions to a ridiculous rivalry between Eastbrook and the neighboring town of Vicksburg that’s never explained but constantly brought up.

Oh, Come On!

Ick wins serious points for its willingness to go fully absurd, and that’s not even the best part about this movie. What really sold me was realizing that every single little setup, no matter how seemingly insignificant, has an eventual payoff. I can’t get into them too deeply without revealing massive spoilers, but everything from the specs of Ted’s car to the Louis Vuitton pepper spray comes back into play when you least expect it, instantly reminding you of the first-act moments where these plot devices were subtly introduced. It’s an alarming and impressive amount of Chekhov’s gunnery from start to finish, and you don’t even realize it in real time because everything unfolds so casually.

The only thing that really took me out of the movie, even if only briefly, was the excessive use of needle drops in the first act. They really had to drive home the point that Hank listened to Good Charlotte, All-American Rejects, and Fountains of Wayne (because he dated Staci, and they have that song about her mom). For a second, it felt like a gigantor slice of Member Berry pie, but circling back to the Chekhov’s gun thing, it had to be this way. Otherwise, we’d never get the Creed montage that makes the third act so memorable. After all, we’re all six feet from the edge if you think about it. 

All in all, Ick is an absolute blast from start to finish. It has the small-town charm and sense of adventure that the golden era of Stranger Things had, and it’s not afraid to embrace its own ridiculousness. The science behind the titular tentacled antagonist is deliberately under-explained so you can just lock in and enjoy the show without putting much thought into it.

Ick is hilarious, thoughtful, and excessively violent in all the best ways. If you want to see what it’s all about, you can stream it on Tubi for free as of this writing.

Cindy Crawford knows a thing (or three) about flattering fashion, as seen from her latest wrap dress style. Crawford wore the dreamiest white dress that screamed ‘summer in Calabasas,’ and we found the waist-snatching look for only $50.

In an Instagram post, Crawford blessed Meaningful Beauty’s followers while promoting a new SPF. We couldn’t focus on anything other than her maxi dress, a billowy white wrap number adorned with fluttery cap sleeves, delicate Swiss dots and a classy front ruffle. This breezy Amazon twin hits every note!

Get the Btfbm Ruffle Wrap Dress for $50 at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate at the date of publication but are subject to change.

Like Crawford’s, this Btfbm Ruffle Wrap Dress cinches at the smallest part of your waist while the flutter sleeves skim your arms. It even has similar Swiss dots that read instantly romantic. A high-low hem is the cherry on top, showing off your shoes and creating a dramatic silhouette.

Like Us, Kate Middleton leans on mega flattering dress styles. During a summer outing, Middleton opted for a dress that covered her upper arms and cinched her waist at the same time, no squeezing involved. We found the look on sale for only $50! While visiting a children’s hospital, Middleton wore a crisp white dress, […]

But honestly, the belt tie is where this silhouette-enhancing dress really earns its keep. You can leave it loose for a relaxed vibe or cinch it tight for a defined shape. It skims your curves instead of squeezing them, a major perk at any age, but especially after 40.

One five-star fan wrote, “Hitting my 40s and have gained so much weight that I have a hard time finding clothes that are both comfortable, especially in hot weather, and don’t make me hate the way I look. I love that the fabric is lightweight and breathable, but not clingy. It does not show every lump and bump. It will be perfect for hot weather and traveling!”

Pair this flattering maxi dress with sandals and gold hoops for a baby shower, or with a denim jacket and sneakers for farmers market runs. Crawford makes California polish look effortless, and at $50, it is.

Social Media Is Loving Latto’s Mommy Era Moments

Once The Shade Room shared the photos of Big Mama and Lil’ Mama, the Roomies flooded the comment section with heart-eye emojis. Some fans said Latto’s snapback needs to be studied, while others said they love seeing her fully embrace her mommy era!

Latto Reveals That Lil’ Mama Takes After 21 Savage

Latto hasn’t stopped gushing about her daughter ever since she seemingly confirmed her arrival back in May. During an exclusive sit-down with Monica on Essence magazine’s ‘Yes, Girl’ podcast, Big Mama spilled more tea about her lil’ mama, revealing that her daughter looks a lot like her dad, 21 Savage. She said she loves everything about her baby girl, but joked that she’s a little annoyed she got his looks since she’s the one who carried her for nine months.

“Everybody say she looks like her daddy, and that just be pissing me off, cause I’m the one that carried her,” she said. “That’s about it right now, but she definitely looks like her daddy.” 

The rapper also shared that she’s ready to see what motherhood has in store, but she’s asking for a few extra prayers because she gave her own parents a run for their money as a kid and isn’t sure what to expect from her daughter. “I wasn’t the easiest out of the two […] So pray for me,”

Roommates, it looks like a major update has surfaced in one of hip-hop’s most closely watched legal cases. While the road ahead is still far from over, a recent courtroom decision could change how the next chapter plays out. With his trial date quickly approaching, Lil Durk just scored a legal win that could impact what jurors hear when proceedings officially get underway.

Lil Durk Avoids New RICO Charges—For Now

According to new court filings, Lil Durk’s defense team, including high-profile attorneys Brian Steel and Drew Findling, successfully argued to have two recently added RICO charges excluded from his upcoming federal trial. The court issued the ruling just weeks before jury selection begins on August 20.

The presiding judge in the case, Michael Fitzgerald, ordered that the two RICO charges—added to the indictment in June—be severed from the current case and tried at a later date. While the decision removes those allegations from the upcoming trial, it does not dismiss them entirely. Durk could still face those RICO charges in future proceedings. Despite the ruling, the Chicago rapper is still facing several serious federal charges, including one count of murder-for-hire, one count of murder-for-hire resulting in death, and use and/or possession of a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence resulting in death.

Roommates Weigh In On Durk’s Case

Roommates wasted no time flooding The Shade Room’s comment section after the update, and while some fans celebrated the ruling as a major win, others had plenty of questions. A few commenters even admitted they forgot Lil Durk is still behind bars awaiting trial, while others kept it simple, saying, “A win is a win.” Meanwhile, plenty of folks reminded everyone that Durk hasn’t beaten the case, urging people to actually read the details before assuming he’s off the hook.

One Instagram user @srt.breezy claimed, “That FDO gonna go crazy 🥋😂🔥🔥🔥”

This Instagram user @doeboy added, “Smurk coming home ❤️”

And, Instagram user @_.janaaee_ shared, “ohh that lawyer dont play“

Meanwhile, Instagram user @1fly_dude clarified, “This is not good news! He’s still gonna be tried on the RICO charges, just AT A LATER DATE! Yall gotta read!“

While Instagram user @ms_lalanicole said, “He isn’t completely off.. they just saving it for later in other words…. This isn’t a celebration.”

Finally, Instagram user @samueljozeph commented, “I know the feds hate to see Brian Steele on a RICO defence team 😂”

The Case Against Lil Durk Explained

As previously reported, federal prosecutors allege that the charges stem from an alleged murder-for-hire plot targeting rapper Quando Rondo. Authorities claim the alleged plot targeted Quando Rondo and led to the 2022 shooting that killed his cousin, Saviay’a Robinson, after gunfire erupted near a Los Angeles gas station. Prosecutors have maintained that Durk played a role in orchestrating the alleged retaliation, while his legal team has continued to deny the allegations and push back against the government’s case.

The latest ruling is viewed as a procedural victory for Durk’s defense, as it narrows the issues jurors will consider during next month’s trial. By separating the newly added RICO allegations from the existing indictment, the court allows both sides to focus on the charges that were already pending, rather than introducing additional racketeering claims just weeks before trial. Durk remains in federal custody as he awaits the start of proceedings, and the outcome of the August trial could determine whether prosecutors move forward with the severed RICO counts at a later date.

Hey Big Brother fans, we’ve got a live feeds update. Despite Rome Seymour and Lawyer Lyric Medeiros thinking they’re sneaky, everyone knows they’re showmancing. And now, another unlikely pair’s emerging and I’m shipping them.

We’ll talk about them, also how Jason de Puy‘s digging himself in deeper telling obvious lies.Plus, we’ve got three on the block and only one campaigning to stay in the game. Plus, a birthday party, and lots more.

Big Brother: Jason’s Lies and Angela’s Doubts

So, Angela Murray seems like she doesn’t want to believe the worst of Jason. And Angela told Rick Devens she needs to find out if Drew Campbell was telling the truth. Angela’s talking about testing Drew.

Angela said it’s heartbreaking if Jason really did her like that. Plus, we know Jason plans on targeting Dee, Devens and Angela. And Drew told them. But Jason thinks he’s flying under the radar.

Instead, he got a shovel and dug himself deeper. He approached Angela with some nonsense about being nervous that others were going to target Angela, Devens and Dee. He says because you’re the three that came back.

Then Jason reassured Angela that he hasn’t heard anything like that and said you’re not on the radar at all. Not honest at all. Then, he hugged Angela and said “I told you I’d come to you if I hear anything”.

She did some lying and told Jason she, Dee and Devens are not even together. Later, Angela twerked with Jason. Later, Angela said it’s hard to be nice to Jason. I will give her credit that Angela’s holding all that anger because in BB26, she’d have popped off on Jason by now.

And speaking of Angela, Alison Grodner said they chose her over other Big Brother alums because she’s a disruptor. Grodner said people love or hate Angela. She’s polarizing and causes chaos.

And although she’s in check now, Grodner doesn’t think it’ll stick. She said, as much as Angela says “she’s not going to cause chaos, she’s probably going to at some point”. You know they want Angela unhinged and fighting.

BB28: Mallory’s Evil Antics and Jason’s Hypocrisy

Speaking of unhinged, Mallory Aurichio‘s reminding me of Kelly Jorgensen from BB27. Remember when she was just always doing evil things to stir the pot, just random wickedness?

I feel like Mallory is Kelly 2.0 because Mallory was talking to Jason about the Have-Nots. Mallory was being so spiteful saying she knows Have Not Haley Thogmartin’s favorite food is spaghetti.

So, Mallory plans to make it and eat it in front of her because she can’t have it. Then, Jason and Mallory did some villain laughter about that. Also, Mallory and Melody Morris have clocked why Jason wants Devens out – because Jason wants to be AFP.

Jason thinks that Devens is his biggest competition for American’s Favorite. And they both agree they can’t trust Jason and have felt he was not trustworthy from the start. Bottom line – he’s playing too hard, too fast.

Big Brother: Dee and Barrett’s Unexpected Showmance

Now let’s talk about the second showmance not on my bingo card. Survivor Dee Valladares and Jumbotron Barrett Pfeiffer are flirtmancing. They’ve held hands. He’s been coming up behind Dee and wrapping his arms around her. The live feed cams have them holding hands.

And while cam talking Dee said he’s a nerd, but he’s my nerd and Dee said she really likes Barrett. And we know Barrett came into the game with a hard-core crush on Dee. However, many fans think Dee’s playing him because she toyed with men on Survivor and The Challenge.

BB28: Headed for the Pitts?

On the BB28 live feeds, Barrett came in the room when Dee was talking to Jason. And he had a banana in his hand. Dee sniffed Barrett’s armpit and said he has good pheromones. Then, Dee talked about how someone’s scent can turn her off.

Meanwhile, Jason was grossed out by Dee’s pit sniffing and said y’all are nasty. Barrett cuddled her. And she laughed and said Jason’s feeling some kind of way about this. Barrett stood up and Jason said he liked the way Barrett was holding the banana.

Then Jason said I’m the only one who could, you know… And Dee said you’re not the only one. She gave Barrett this big flirty smile and said peel it for me while Jason died laughing. Very flirty – we’ll see if it’s the real deal.

Big Brother: The Eviction Campaign and Survivor Connections

Meanwhile, Drew’s macking on Melody but she has a man at home. I’ll admit I’m kind of off Drew after he said he hates seeing Lala Verrett walking around in her bikini and heels. She looks good especially for pushing 60.

Drew tells Dee that Mallory wants to target her if she wins HOH and Yash Patel is planning to come for Dee also. There’s been some vote talk too. Jason and Lala will vote to keep Taylor Brown over Yash or Ashley Trail.

Dee thinks evicting Yash would be smart this week and would break a tie for Taylor. Yash has been campaigning hard, but Ashley needed some advice from Drew on how to approach people and really has been more chatty than working on votes.

Yash has been working overtime trying to get votes to stay. Taylor was doing some work but then completely slacked off and focused on Lala’s 58th birthday celebration instead. Taylor also said she was in Big Brother more for the experience than the money.

Basically Taylor campaigned, seemed to check it off a to-do list and stopped. But then today, she asked Dee if she’s safe and she warned Taylor the HGs are torn between her and Yash. Taylor said she has the littles vote.

That’s what she’s calling Lyric, Melody and Mallory. Angela told Taylor she has her vote too but we’ll see – that may not be genuine. Dee reassured Taylor again today she’ll tie break in her favor in part because Yash and Ashley haven’t come to her.

Also, a big chunk of the house is not feeling Haley ranging from mild dislike to outright hate and calling her a snake and other wild words.
