Dick Clark, Entertainment Icon Nicknamed 'America's Oldest Teenager,' Dies at 82

Dick Clark, the music industry maverick, longtime TV host and powerhouse producer who changed the way we listened to pop music with "American Bandstand," and whose trademark "Rockin' Eve" became a fixture of New Year's celebrations, died today at the age of 82.

Clark's agent Paul Shefrin said in statement that the veteran host died this morning following a "massive heart attack."

I saw this on the local news...very sad to see such a Pop icon pass.

Dick Clark was a perpetual "Teenager".........he never seemed to look his age.

Sad that we've lost the hosts of "Soul Train" and "American Bandstand" so close together. Their legends loom quite large in my childhood memories. RIP Don and Dick.

How sad. I just realized we shared a birthday. I loved watching old reruns of Pyramid on GSN when I was younger. RIP. :uh:
