Artie Lange fans are hurting bad. Since yesterday's announcement that Artie Lange's Saturday hospitalization was due to a violent suicide attempt, fans have been searching for ways to pay tribute to the Howard Stern Show cast member that has brought them nearly a decade of twisted genius during their morning commutes.
Howard Stern's (totally understandable) inability to process the Artie Lange suicide attempt announcement on Thursday's broadcast has left fans struggling to express their grief and hope for Artie Lange through independent tributes, with the hope that Howard Stern will be better able to speak on the issue when he's had some time to cope with the shock.
The most popular trend in Artie Lange YouTube tributes right now seems to be montages of video clips and still photos of Artie Lange set to Johnny Cash's remake of the Nine Inch Nails song, 'Hurt'. Watch one of several 'Hurt' tributes below:
Other Artie Lange fans are trying to focus on happier memories of Artie Lange. One fan compiled a series of audio clips of Artie Lange naming an endless string of Howard Stern Show female guests "the hottest chick we've ever had in here". Watch the tribute set to Nine Inch Nails' 'Closer' below (explicit material):
