Howard Stern "Overwhelmed" With Birthday Bash

Howard Stern was roasted, toasted, interviewed, hugged, hooted at and serenaded by a parade of stars Friday night. It was a party to celebrate his 60th birthday, but it was also a four-hour SiriusXM radio show, broadcast live from the Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan.

It was, Stern told USAToday, "Overwhelming."

Stern and his longtime sidekick Robin Quivers took seats behind a desk on the side of the stage, leaving the hosting duties to his friend Jimmy Kimmel.

"Howard Stern did to radio what Picasso did to visual art," said Kimmel. "He was the first. He is the best."



On the main floor, tables were set up, Golden Globe-style. Howard's wife, Beth, 41, had a table near the front of the room. Others were filled by celebs including Robert Downey Jr., Tracy Morgan, Johnny Knoxville, George Takei, Barbara Walters, Jeff Probst, Larry King, Heidi Klum, Joan Rivers, John Stamos, Louis C.K., Jimmy Fallon, Kathy Griffin, David Letterman, Bryan Cranston, Sandra Bernhard, Chelsea Handler, Katie Couric and Steven Tyler.
