Robert Goulet, 1933-2007

by Amy

Legendary performer Robert Goulet passed away yesterday while awaiting a lung transplant in Los Angeles. The singer was 73. The Massachusetts-born Goulet, who spent much of his youth in Canada, gained stardom in 1960 with “Camelot,” the Lerner and Loewe musical that starred Richard Burton as King Arthur and Julie Andrews as his Queen Guinevere.

Goulet played Sir Lancelot, the arrogant French knight who falls in love with Guinevere.

He became a hit with American TV viewers with appearances on “The Ed Sullivan Show” and other programs. Sullivan labeled him the “American baritone from Canada,” where he had already been a popular star in the 1950s, hosting his own show called “General Electric’s Showtime.”

Goulet is best known for his loungey baritone act but we best remember him from Will Ferrel’s impressions of him on Saturday Night Live. The sketch was no Janet Reno Dance Party but we like to think Goulet was highly amused by Ferrel’s impression of him.
