Artie Lang has a melt down …

Artie Lang is one of my favorite actors and happens to be on my favorite morning show, Howard Stern. I can usually only listen about 30-40 minutes a day on my drive in to work and hear repeats. Well, as it turns out, at some point after I went into work on Thursday Artie had it out with his assistant Teddy and quit the show!

“As he has done more and more frequently, Artie launched into a homophobic tirade. He threw a cup at Teddy, and then apparently lunged at him before being restrained by several cast members, including executive producer Gary Dell’Abate.

Lange said that, had he reached him, Teddy would be “dead† and the rotund comedian would be in jail. A dumbfounded Stern said he couldn’t condone Lange’s actions and Artie replied that he couldn’t guarantee it wouldn’t happen again. Howard said he couldn’t have that.

“Well, I resign,† Artie said.

Before he walked out, Lange said, “I’m not a good person … I gotta leave … I love you, Howard.†
“I love you too,† said Stern, audibly shaken.
“What the F just happened?† said Stern’s sidekick, Robin Quivers.”

The show doesn’t come on Friday’s and next week they are on vacation … so its going to be a while before we know what is going on!
