Billy Mays

Miley Cyrus NOT Dead in Car Accident

Because there are very sick people with no lives of their own out there, another Miley Cyrus death rumor is running amok.

Someone hacked into a number of celebrity Twitter services and announced their deaths. “Miley Cyrus dead”, “Britney Spears dead”, “Louie Anderson dead”, “Harrison Ford dead”, “Jeff Goldblum dead” were all announced via the media messaging network. Rest assured all of the above celebrities are alive and fine. The “Hannah Montana” starlet was said to have perished in a terrible car accident. Obviously there is no truth to this. This is the 274th (just a guess) rumor of her death.

Lets hope that it stays just a rumor. Within weeks (most within days) of each other, Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Gale Storm, Billy Mays and David Carradine have all passed away far too soon.

So The Dame begs of you to drive safely, replace drugs with an addiction exercise and have a safety word while getting your kink on.

Billy Mays Found Dead – Video

In what is turning out to be a horrid weekend, another well known face has died. Billy Mays, rival to the Sham Wow/hooker beater, has died.

Billy Mays was a pitchman that could scream about the benefits of Oxiclean while encouraging you to $19.95 for crap you don’t need. He recently started a tv series on the Discovery channel called “Pitchmen” to discover the next inventor of As Seen on TV product “inventor.”

Mays was found dead in his Florida home at 7:45 this morning. The 50 year old had been on plane that suffered a flat tire upon landing. He mentioned being bumped in the head, but brushed it off as no big deal.

Per TMZ:

“He told a local TV station, “All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head.”

We’re told Mays was at his home around 6:00 PM last night, and according to a source Mays was “acting fine and normal … he was talking business with his father-in-law.”

No official cause of death has been named. Police have ruled out foul play and an autopsy will be performed tomorrow afternoon. Most are assuming that the bump on his head during the landing. Billy Twittered the incident in an eerie last message.
