The old video of Howard Stern in blackface was viral after it was reported that Vice President Kamala Harris will be sit for an interview with him. Kamala Harris' week is all busy with a number of interviews scheduled. She had a controversial one with Alex Cooper on Call her Daddy. Then CBS's "60 Minutes" will air its sit down with Harris and her running mate Tim Walz. On Tuesday, Harris will fly to New York for appearances on ABC's “The View,” CBS’ “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and “The Howard Stern Show.”

As the reputation of the platforms that Kamala Harris is choosing is on the radar, the old video of Howard Stern surfaced.

"In honor of Kamala Harris doing an interview with Howard Stern, here are 90 seconds of Stern in blackface repeatedly using the N-word. I'm sure CNN will be outraged by Kamala doing an interview with a flaming racist," one posted on X.

"Old clip of Howard Stern in blackface. Funny how no one ever tried to cancel him," another wrote.



In the video, he uttered the N word many times.

But this is not the first time that the video surfaced. It was a 1993 New Year's Eve performance and Stern later addressed the controversy. "The s**t I did was fu*king crazy," he said according to a PEOPLE article. "I'll be the first to admit. I won't go back and watch those old shows; it's like, 'Who is that guy?' But that was my shtick, that's what I did and I own it. I don't think I got embraced by Nazi groups and hate groups. They seemed to think I was against them too. Everybody had a bone to pick with me," he clarified.
