Robin Leach, the entertainment journalist and host whose syndicated TV series Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous hit smack-dab in the zeitgeist of the “greed is good” era during its heyday in the 1980s and early 90s, has died. He was 76.

He most recently had been working as a columnist at the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The newspaper relayed the news this morning that Leach passed away overnight in Las Vegas. He had been hospitalized since November 21 after suffering a stroke. He had a second stroke Monday and had been in hospice care.

Robin Leach did appear on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire's Las Vegas Celebrity Week last year and he was so cool in it. Robin also appeared on the Aladdin Special Edition DVD as the funny yet annoying voice of the Genie's lamp. My mom used to adore watching Lifestyles Of The Rich And Famous because she always liked seeing how celebrities lived and often fantasizes about being rich all the time
