Howard Stern's Negligeé and Underpants Party was Stern's first pay-per-view special and home video release. The event aired live in front of a studio audience and broadcast to mostly East Coast areas at 10 p.m. on February 27, 1988. It cost $19.95 to purchase.[1] It featured Stern, his radio show staff, and the audience wearing underwear or lingerie, and had various segments including live performances and stunts and pre-recorded skits. Various celebrities appeared on the program, including Richard Belzer, Jessica Hahn, Downtown Julie Brown, Judy Tenuta, Emo Philips, Geraldo Rivera, Dweezil Zappa and Moon Zappa. On March 7, the event was released on VHS by Weirdo, Inc. and Infinity Broadcasting Corporation through mail order, with a catalogue number of 1001 and a shortened runtime of 113 minutes.
The event originated after Stern's unsuccessful attempt at securing a late night television show on Fox in 1987. Later that year he entered talks with a pay-per-view production company in producing a one-off special. The format appealed to Stern as the event would be free from broadcast regulations imposed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), allowing him creative freedom.[2] The show was the first on-camera appearance of former radio show intern Mitch Fatel, who was given $1,000 by Stern after the special had aired. It was also the debut of early Wack Pack member Vinnie Mazzeo, who lights his penis on fire and tries to cook eggs. He did not practice the stunt beforehand.[2]
Following the event, Stern caught the attention of the Drug Enforcement Administration for on-air comments that detailed his and radio producer Gary Dell'Abate's attempt to obtain drugs for a guest at the event, and that drugs were being used backstage.[2] Law enforcement agent Michael Levine wrote a letter to the New York Daily News, without the agency's knowledge, about wanting to arrest Stern and asking witnesses to rat him out. In July 1988, the DEA declared there was no basis for an investigation and chastised Levine for "inappropriate behavior".[3] Levine later claimed that his letter was not only authorized by the DEA and the Department of Justice, but that Stern's media clout had caused the DEA to back down.[4]
The event received mixed and negative reviews. Belzer recalled the show being "wonderfully sleazy".[2] The Courier-Post summarised the event as "rather entertaining" but was "mostly obscured by the bad taste, cruelty and borderline pornography" that made up the bulk of the program.[5] The Town Talk wrote Stern had "single-handedly set back cable pay-per-view a millennium or two" and described the special as "bone-achingly dull and stupefyingly simple-minded."[6] The best known review was by Kay Gardella in the New York Daily News, which was based on other people's opinions and not from watching it herself. Stern attacked Gardella on the air, which resulted in Gardella reviewing the special after watching the cassette. In her subsequent review, Gardella thought it was "mostly just pathetic" and that in the course of the show, Stern "doesn't do one imaginative, talented or intelligent thing."[7]

U.S. Open Sores

Howard Stern's U.S. Open Sores was a live event that took place at the Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, New York, on October 7, 1989, to a sell-out crowd of 16,000 people. It was filmed and subsequently released as Stern's second home video in December 1989 by One Twelve, Inc. The event centered around a tennis match between Stern and his radio show producer Gary Dell'Abate after Stern challenged him on the air. The idea quickly developed into a large scale event where listeners could pay to attend, and participation from various guests from the show.[8] Stern's co-host and newscaster Robin Quivers played a match with a listener, Darren the Foot Licker. Other segments included stand-up comedy from show writer Jackie Martling, special guest appearances from Celestine, Al Lewis, Jessica Hahn, Sam Kinison, and Leslie West, and live music from Pig Vomit.
The event was organised by Live Nation chairman and concert promoter Ron Delsener, after employee Ross Zapin heard Stern challenge Dell'Abate and got in touch with Stern's agent. It sold out in one day.[8] An original idea was to feature topless ball girls during the match and Stern held auditions on his radio show for participants, but Nassau County authorities informed the promoters that topless entertainment was illegal, so the girls wore pasties.[9] Kinison paid for himself and a group of friends to attend the event out of his own expenses, and the crowd stormed the arena floor during his performance of "Wild Thing" with West, which caused a near riot.[8] Radio producer Fred Norris appeared as his on-air character Kurt Waldheim Jr., dressed in a Nazi outfit and emptied an envelope of ashes pretending they were Anne Frank's remains. Stern had planned to have Vinnie D'Amico warm up the crowd with his stunt that involved dipping a living mouse in olive oil before swallowing it whole and vomiting, but marshalls from the ASPCA turned up at the event and threatened to arrest Stern if the stunt went ahead.[8]
The video includes additional footage including Stern and his staff organising and preparing for the event, and backstage action. It was only available through mail order; after the telephone line to order tapes closed, copies were found for sale in local Wiz outlets.[10]

Butt Bongo Fiesta

Released | October 1992 |

Butt Bongo Fiesta was Stern's third home video that was released in October 1992. The main segments of the video are Jungle Man, a short film featuring segments shot in 3D, and Butt Bongo.
The concept developed in 1992 when a newspaper reported plans for Stern's show to be syndicated to a radio station in Maine. The article mentioned a pair of local DJs known for "bongo butt" segments, whereby the hosts play songs and spank their girlfriend's bottoms like a bongo drum. Stern had a pair of listeners try the same thing on his radio show, which led to the idea of producing a new videotape with butt bongo as the main feature.[11] After Stern's late night variety show on WWOR-TV was cancelled in August 1992, he asked listeners to suggest ideas for segments they wanted to see on the video and brought in members of the WWOR-TV show crew to produce it, including producer Dan Forman and writer Mark Cronin. The latter said Stern wanted Butt Bongo Fiesta to be "the perfect Channel 9 show episode" without the time and content restrictions imposed by network television management.[11] Stern hosted the Butt Bongo segment as Howardo Estern, which was inspired by Ricky Ricardo of the sitcom I Love Lucy.[11]
Butt Bongo Fiesta was a commercial success during its limited mail order release, selling around 260,000 copies for an estimated gross of $10 million.[12] Stern looked back at the video and considered it to be his best videotape.[11]

The Miss Howard Stern New Year's Eve Pageant was Stern's second pay-per-view event that aired live on December 31, 1993. It centered around a satirical beauty pageant to crown a Miss Howard Stern, with the winner receiving a $50,000 prize. The pageant featured several celebrity judges, including Janis Ian, Daniel Carver, John Bobbitt, Sherman Hemsley, Mark Hamill, Tiny Tim, and Joe Frazier.
In May 1993, Main Events Television sought potential talent to stage a pay-per-view production that would generate enough subscriptions on-par with boxing matches, then the most popular pay-per-view events at the time. In August, Stern began to discuss the idea of staging another television special on the air and a month later, struck a deal with the company.[13] Stern earned a reported $1 million advance when it was green-lit.[14] It cost $2 million to produce and market the event, which was originally to be held at the Atlantic City Convention Center before the venue was changed to Newark Symphony Hall in Newark, New Jersey.[15]
Over 40 women and one man competed in the pageant, most of whom had won preliminary contests held in cities where Stern's radio show was syndicated to at the time.[13][16] The 20 finalists competed in live lingerie and talent rounds, after which five were chosen for the final interview round. Elaine Marks won the contest, who claimed she had appeared in Playboy as a result. Other notable contestants were Debbie the Space Alien of the show's Wack Pack and bodybuilder and future professional wrestler Nicole Bass.[17]
The event was a considerable commercial success; around 400,000 households purchased the show for an estimated gross of $16 million, breaking the subscriber record for a non-sports event previously held by a New Kids on the Block concert in 1990.[18] The New York Post called it "the most disgusting two hours in the history of television".[19] In February 1994, the event was released on VHS as Howard Stern's New Year's Rotten Eve 1994 by One Twelve, Inc. and Infinity Broadcasting Corporation, the title being a spin on the television show Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. The video was packaged with a portrait of Stern by artist LeRoy Neiman, and included footage of Stern and his staff discussing the event and scenes from backstage and the post-event party.
In 2020, a clip of the Ted Danson and Whoopi Goldberg sketch in which Stern dressed in blackface and used racial slurs resurfaced when Donald Trump Jr. posted it on social media after Stern criticized President Donald Trump on a recent show.[20][21] Stern admitted, "The shit I did was fucking crazy" and that he has since toned down his show, crediting years in psychotherapy for his evolution.[22][23]

Crucified by the FCC is a box set released as a single CD and two audio cassettes by Infinity Broadcasting Corporation in February 1991.[26] It features segments from Stern's radio show that were censored from broadcast and skits recorded specifically for the album. Stern produced the set after the first fine was issued to Infinity by the FCC, following an investigation over indecent material from a listener which led to a $6,000 fine in November 1990. An excerpt from a segment in question is featured on the track "Christmas Party", where a man plays a piano with his penis.[27][26]
Stern edited and assembled the set in a studio that he had set-up in his home basement, using the project as an excuse to use the equipment. He used traditional reel-to-reel recorders and as he was familiar with the process from his early radio career, and unexpurgated versions of radio broadcasts. WXRK General Manager Tom Chiusano said this became the set's unique selling point, as it was the first attempt at reselling content from the radio show and in a form that was unavailable to listeners.[27] The set was available via mail order and included a 12-page booklet chronicling the show's history and its run-ins with the FCC.[26]
In March 1991, Stern appeared on Later on NBC to promote the album which became known for his confrontational interview with fill-in host Tom Snyder. NBC censored Stern when he gave out the phone number to order the product, which annoyed him as he saw little point in appearing on the show if he was unable to promote it.[27] The Associated Press described the interview as "hilarious, wrong-headed, comical and ultimately sad."[28]

Private Parts: The Album is the soundtrack album to the 1997 biographical comedy film based on Stern's first book Private Parts, released on February 25, 1997 by Warner Bros. Records.[30][31] The album is a compilation of classic and contemporary rock songs with excerpts from various scenes from the film. Two songs are original tracks featuring Stern on vocals: "The Great American Nightmare" performed by Rob Zombie and "Tortured Man", co-written and performed by The Dust Brothers with assistance from Stern's writers Jackie Martling and Fred Norris.[30] The former has been the opening theme to Stern's radio show since 1999. The album was produced by Peter Afterman, Jeff Gold and Rick Rubin.[30] A cover of the Led Zeppelin song "No Quarter" performed by Tool was originally planned to be on the album, but did not appear due to Tool deciding against allowing it to be used, leading to criticism from Howard Stern, who had previously endorsed the band.[32]
The album was promoted with alternate covers. Of the first one million copies pressed, 600,000 of them depicted a cover of a nude Stern with the New York City skyline covering him with the Empire State Building covering his genitals. The remaining copies were divided into three alternate cover schemes that were one time pressings only, a similar tactic used for the paperback edition of Stern's second book, Miss America. A fifth version of the soundtrack was for promotional use only. A ticket was placed in one copy of the first million pressed which gave the buyer the chance to receive the album pressed in gold.[30]
Upon release, the album went to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. As the film entered the box office at number one, this feat marked the first double chart debut in American history. Stern became the second radio personality to have topped a US record chart, behind Rick Dees.[33] On May 8, 1997, it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling one million copies.[31]
