Ed McMahon Fights Foreclosure!
Ed McMahon, who for decades appeared as Johnny Carson’s sidekick on “The Tonight Show,” is fighting to avoid foreclosure on his multimillion-dollar Beverly Hills home.
The former “Star Search” host was $644,000 behind on payments on $4.8 million in mortgage loans when a unit of Countrywide Financial Corp. filed a default notice Feb. 28 with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s Office.
McMahon, 85, has been unable to work as a pitchman for various products since he broke his neck 18 months ago.
The six-bedroom, five-bath house is in a hilltop gated community overlooking Mulholland Drive called The Summit and is listed for sale at $6.25 million. It has been on the market two years.
The house is near that of pop star Britney Spears, which doesn’t always work in its favor.
Oh Ed….where’s Publisher’s Clearing House with that big check? Almost homeless…and kinda BUSTED.
