On November 19th, 2008 Eric the Midget called the Howard Stern show and left a voice mail message that he "wanted to butt fuck Natalie and make her squeal like the pig that she is" . The Natalie he was referring to was Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines, who Eric felt had made derogatory remarks about him weeks earlier. The next day Eric was given a chance to rescind these horrible comments, but instead chose to stand by his heinous and despicable remarks. Stern later surmised that Eric's anger came from a deep hidden love he had for Natalie. Eric the Midget denied these claims. Several callers called in and suggested Eric's hatred for women came from a bout of latent homosexuality.
It was revealed on the March 02, 2009 show that Eric is club footed. Howard asked about his strange feet and Eric rudely replied "I'm club fuckin' footed ya ass-wipe." The clip enjoyed frequent replay on the program.
