McMahon's trademark introduction is known worldwide

Ed McMahon, Jonny Carson's sidekick for 30 years on NBC's The Tonight Show, has died at the age of 86.

Best known for his enthusiastic catchphrase "Here's Johnny!", McMahon was also familiar as the host of TV talent show Star Search.

His publicist, Howard Bragman, said McMahon died on Tuesday at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center surrounded by his family.

He said McMahon had had "a multitude of health problems the last few months".

McMahon defaulted on the mortgage to his Hollywood mansion in 2008 and said his financial woes were due to an inability to work following health problems.

Earlier this year, he was treated in intensive care in hospital suffering from pneumonia.

At the time, Mr Bragman declined to comment on reports that the TV star was also suffering from bone cancer.
