‘Uncle’ Ed Muscare, ex-Kansas City TV show host and convicted sex offender, dead at 79

Former Kansas City television host and convicted sex offender “Uncle” Ed Muscare died in prison Monday night. Word comes from Muscare’s wife, Marion, who posted the above YouTube video Monday night saying Muscare died due to lung cancer (h/t: Fox 4). Muscare was 79.

In 2009, Muscare resurfaced, posting bizarre videos to YouTube, including one of a dog suckling on his bare stomach. This, of course, earned him Internet fame, dubbed by some as the “Singing Sex Offender.”
