We've just learned that Dom DeLuise -- who starred in such classics as "The Cannonball Run" and "Blazing Saddles" and was the voice of Pizza the Hutt in "Spaceballs" -- died last night in a Los Angeles hospital.

We're told he passed away peacefully in his sleep at around 6 PM.

He was 75.

I remember him from Spaceballs. Great actor.

I'd quote his line from Blazing Saddles but I fear the consequences :P

Very funny guy, so long.
