That is really surprising. There seems to be a death attack on celebrities these days. Billy Mays only just started his own reality show too, will they be able to continue without him now? He will be missed by advertisers for sure.

Billy Mays more credible than Congress
America's most beloved TV pitchman, Billy Mays, died this weekend at the age of 50. Autopsy is not complete and the only signs of any trouble was the flight Mays took the day before. The plane had a rough landing and baggage hit him in the head. He was dead the next morning. Glenn talks about the spokesman for miracle products like OxyClean, Kaboom, Orange Glow, Jupiter Jack and more. Plus Glenn shows that this guy is even more credible than the clowns who passed the Cap & Tax bill on Friday. Ref. Source 7
It is hard to imagine that June is such a deadly month for celebrities this year. I hope that this is not a trend that id going to occur over the summer. I know that Billy will be missed by many. I have to agree that I believed more of what he said than what congress tells us.
I'm sorry for the family's loss and all but this guy's voice just irritated me. Hearing that voice was like the beep inmy head to immediately change the channel.
