Dom DeLuise, who had been struggling with cancer for a year, has died. He was 75. He also admitted to have a problem with food. On the Larry King show in 1991 he said, “I finally became powerless over food,” he told King. “You know, anybody who’s an alcoholic or cocaine or something, that’s what food was to me.”

DeLuise made millions laugh in such films as Blazing Saddles, Silent Movie, and The Cannonball Run. He was “surrounded by family when he died in a Santa Monica, California, hospital Monday.”
