"Police suspect foul play in Billie May's death;
An investigating officer said that his skin had a strange Orange Glo to it!
Also, the scene of his death had been rinsed and scrubbed with Oxy-Clean to remove all evidence."

No, not a gunshot, Sean, read the article.
Apparently he wacked his head during some turbulence on a plane.

Mr. Slapchop is going to become Mr. Oxyclean, if Chef Tony doesn't take over.

I'd say Sham-wow Vince, but since he's in jail for punching that hooker in the mouth, i'd say that's not gonna happen.

The shamwow guy is a complete tool. He made a movie, I think in either '99 or '00. Called "The Underground Comedy Movie" - he put his life savings in it, tried to hire good actors, and stood by his ideas. It SUCKED. When it bombed and when most of the D-level celebrities pulled out after reading the script he went sue crazy and sued several people, saying they ruined the film. Horrible writing and ideas ruined the film.

Watch that film it's what's going on in his head - he's a definite tool. I knew it was going to bad, got it off netflix, but truly thought my ability to watch stupid comedy would get me through it. After 20mins we gave up, shut it off, and sent it back.

Billy Mays was really gaining a cult audience though, especially with youtube and channels like JaboodyDubs

The Shamwow guy is just an idiot

I was reading furiously to put in the Vince Sham Wow Miami Beach hooker tribute...

Oh well, I really think Billy Mays was too intense. He either died from too much black hair dye (absorbed through his Wolfman beard) or advertising pitch man steroidal rage.

The Sham Wow guy died by being punched by a hooker on an airplane?

I still think its the luggage.
Wouldn't it be straight up irony if it was his luggage, filled with Oxyclean that did him in?
I mean i thought Billy Mays would be killed by something cool, not by his luggage. Kinda like Steve Irwin. The croc hunter gets killed by a stingray? WTF?
That's like me getting killed by a Honda. I thought there'd been a better way to go out!
