Pitchman Billy Mays found dead

Billy Mays is best known for pitching products like Oxyclean, Kaboom, and OrangeGlow was found dead in his home this morning.  Mays, 50, was found unresponsive at 7:45am in his Florida home by his wife. Police have stated that they do not suspect foul play, but will not make a statement until an autopsy is performed.  Mays was taking the leap from infomercial to mainstream media with the launch of his new show Pitchmen on the Discovery Channel.  He was interviewed on Conan O’Brien last week during the Tonight Show.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
