Entertainer Ed McMahon, who will turn 86 next week, has been hospitalized with pneumonia and other undisclosed ailments for almost a month, according to a spokesperson for McMahon. He’s currently in the intensive care unit at an undisclosed hospital, and seems to only be taking a turn for the worse.
McMahon, who was sidekick to Johnny Carson on “The Tonight Show” for thirty years and hosted “Star Search” has also been reported to have bone cancer, although those reports have not been confirmed as of yet. McMahon has claimed that he and his wife become sick due to toxic mold in their house that also killed their dog, Muffin. He also suffered a broken neck from a fall a couple of years ago, which left him unable to work and with two spine surgeries under his belt.
Ed McMahon has become well-known in recent years as the spokesperson for Publishers Clearing House and a pitch person for Budweiser Beer, among other companies. He was also the long-time co-host of the Jerry Lewis Labor Day telethon for muscular dystrophy.
Howard Bragman, the Hollywood publicist, will not confirm which hospital is treating Ed McMahon, only that it is not the Cedars- Sinai Medical Center.
