Eighty-five year old television personality Ed McMahon is facing homelessness after falling $644,000 behind in payments on his $4.8 million Beverly Hills mansion, The Wall Street Journal reported late Tuesday. McMahon grew to fame in the 1970s as Johnny Carson’s sidekick on The Tonight Show. He went on to host Star Search in the 1980s and spent more than decade as the face of Publishers Clearing House Million Dollar Sweepstakes. Ed has been unable to work as the featured hypeman for various products since breaking his neck 18 months ago, says spokesman Howard Bragman.

“There are plenty of people affected by the weak economy, bad housing market or bad health,” Bragman says.

The six-bedroom, five-bath Mediterranean estate, just off Crest Court in the gated Beverly Hills community of The Summit, has been listed for sale at $6.25 million, said real estate agent Alex Davis of Alex Davis Estates.

“This once-in-a-lifetime offering is full of charm and character. The foreign imported doors and meticulously chosen fireplaces are unlike any other,” the public listing boasts.
