Howard Stern has been hosting The Howard Stern Show on SiriusXM since 2006, becoming one of the highest-paid radio hosts in the world. The 71-year-old radio host signed huge contracts with the company, making him a broadcasting legend and earning him the nickname «The King of All Media».
In mid-2025, rumors began to circulate that the show would be canceled when Howard’s contract expired at the end of the year, with reports that SiriusXM could no longer cover his massive salary. Howard quickly dispelled these rumors on air, joking that he would be replaced by Andy Cohen before clarifying: «None of that is true; they were trying to create a story. I don’t know what they’re talking about».
According to multiple sources, Howard earns between $ 80 million and $ 120 million per year on SiriusXM. In December 2020, the radio host signed a five-year contract extension with the company for over $ 100 million per year. The five-year contract is worth between $ 500 million and $ 600 million.
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Howard currently has a net worth of $ 650 million.
Despite previous reports, The Howard Stern Show will not be canceled, at least according to Howard himself.
«Now I can’t leave. Screw you and these rumors», - Stern said on September 8, 2025, adding that SiriusXM executives approached him «as usual, and they’re fantastic. They’ve been great. We discussed». He also reassured listeners: «I'm very happy at Sirius».
«After what happened with Stephen Colbert, it seems like they just can’t afford to keep him going», - added a source
