LOS ANGELES - Robert Goulet, the handsome, big-voiced baritone whose Broadway debut in "Camelot" launched an award-winning stage and recording career, has died. He was 73.

The singer died Tuesday morning in a Los Angeles hospital while awaiting a lung transplant, said Goulet spokesman Norm Johnson.

He had been awaiting a lung transplant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after being found last month to have a rare form of pulmonary fibrosis.

Goulet had remained in good spirits even as he waited for the transplant, said Vera Goulet, his wife of 25 years.

"Just watch my vocal cords," she said he told doctors before they inserted a breathing tube.

I really liked those commercials they just had him in. They were funny.

I almost bought tickets to watch him sing in Denver this past month. But Sadly I think it was canceled because of his Lung problem.

how does it feel, knowing that Goulet's fame will long, long out last any that you may gain?

Do you think Ferrell will stop doing this character? I don't think I would be able to resist. It's respect for the dead right?

Is it wrong that my friend at work saw this news and said "Y'know, if they cremate him he'll be a 'Creme Goulet'!" and I laughed my ass off?

Seriously though, he was cool as hell.

One has a mustache, the other doesn't. What's to confuse?
