Fake Arnold
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Josh Thompson, better known as Fake Arnold, is a comedian who impersonates Arnold Schwarzenegger. He is often featured on the Howard Stern Show on Sirius Satellite Radio and the Conway and Whitman show on KLSX in Los Angeles. After the real Schwarzenegger was elected Governor of California, Fake Arnold called into the Stern Show and suggested a national priority be placed on blowing up the moon, since it regulates female menstrual cycles and is therefore responsible for making them "bitchy". At least one news organization, Joe Scarborough of MSNBC, reported it without knowing it was a gag delivered by an impersonator. On the January 10, 2006 Howard Stern Show, Fake Arnold had a 15 minute conversation about gay marriage with George Takei, who was completely fooled. The next day, the Stern Show did the same thing again, telling him that the real Arnold heard about the previous show. Takei spoke with him and was again tricked.
