Howard Stern's Birthday Bash - 0★

Stern's 60th-birthday bash at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom reinforced just how many household stars of music, stage and screen have responded to the directive, as Stern, his crew and satellite broadcaster SiriusXM, Stern's radio home since 2006, delivered a four-hour gala rivaling the star power of any glitzy awards show. Perhaps even better; whereas the Academy Awards, Emmy Awards and Grammy Awards spotlight talents in their respective fields, Stern's party melded those of numerous walks, truly befitting his moniker as the "King of All Media."
