News reports are saying that he passed away as well...then someone else said that Louie Anderson also passed away - UPDATE - though I'm reading now that Louie Anderson is a hoax - so not sure it's true.

I don't know, but I find all this death depressing. A long time friends mom passed away last week as well - just too many too fast.

we're kind of sad about this in our house :( (I know we're weird)

actually....it's been a running joke of everything billy mays....and dh recently taped a photo of him in my night stand fan :giggle

I just went up to tell him and he was like WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!

we always watched his show 'pitchmen' with anthony sullivan....he had a young daughter (toddler) and an older son from his first marriage :(

Or water. Don't drink the overpriced celebrity water.

5 this month... David Carradine. Farrah Fawcett. Ed McMahon. Michael Jackson. Billy Mays.

I think I'd be a little paranoid right now if I were famous.

sounds like there is a possibility that it was a Natasha Richardson type case, he was on a flight that had a very rough landing and something from the overhead bins fell on his head but he shrugged it off saying he had a tough head went to bed feeling off and never woke up :( How sad.

Well, that (the cocaine) explains a lot about his personality, but i can see with a bad hip why he would need the painkillers. That can be very painful.
