Its likely to be quite interesting. Piers is clearly very effective in the areas now [he] does not want almost anything to get when it comes to that, Nigel told Access Hollywood in the BAFTA Honours in La on Wednesday, when requested about Piers exit in the NBC hit. Stern, I have no idea. I have no idea what hes likely to be like like a judge. Nigel stated that although the shock jock includes a gift for speaking his mind, his actual understanding of what must be done to become a effective performer might not be extensive enough to do the job. I believe hell be truthful, Nigel stated. But what he really is aware of show business and talent and functions, I have no idea. As formerly reported on AccessHollywood.com, a week ago, Simon Cowell AGTs executive producer told Access hes keen on Stern, but that filling out the SiriusXM radio host was determined by a number of factors. I love him, Simon stated. Theres many people who make choices about this stuff. Moneys started work, agendas [have] started work. There can be a couple of twists and turns still.
