Ed McMahon has an unexpected new job title: rapper.
The 85-year-old former Tonight Show sidekick will star in two viral rap videos for FreeCreditReport.com. The videos feature McMahon wearing a tracksuit, being chauffeured around Los Angeles in a Cadillac Escalade golf cart and waxing lyrical about his very public financial troubles.
Says Ed in a press release: “I knew I could sing the blues, but I didn’t know I could rap.”
The videos will appear online in October.
In the meantime, you can baffle your brains over what you think McMahon’s rapper name would be. MC Geritol? DJ Hip Replacement?

Poor Ed!!! He needs to get rid of that bitch of a wife he has who has drained him bone dry!!! What gold digging skank!!
Sad to see an American televison legend being reduced to this! Where are all his Hollywood buddies to help him out?? Oh yeah…they are all dead!!
I agree Jack lol
What a disgrace. As in the words of the singer Richard Marx “when your’e tryin to make a livin, there aint no such thing as pride”
Poor guy. Sad really!
I am sincerely sad about this. Man, Johnny would be heartbroken.
i think his house was foreclosed on right?
also, beware of freecreditreport.com
you sign up and they pull your credit monthly…for a FEE.
I find this to be so sad.
This man is 85 years old. How many 85 year old men do you know that are still working? Not that many at all. Ed McMahon obviously did not manage his money well.
agree wih yu delicious!
That is sad to see him in this state.
This is extremely sad. What people don’t do for money.
Johnny being heartbroken is not the word. We all know Johnny was a straight up bigot who disowned his own son for having a child with a mexican.
I think this article is racist! While I am sympathetic to Ed McMahon’s finacial woes…a rappper for real?!?! How much more stereotypical are we going to get? This is definitely a step in the wrong direction for FreeCreditReport.com.
^^i was thinking the same thing, your right.
