Johnny Grant, the longtime celebratory mayor of Hollywood, died Wednesday night in his Hollywood hotel room.  Grant was 84-years-old.

Grant died just before 7 p.m. Wednesday, apparently of natural causes, said Officer Jason Lee. Grant was found dead on a bed in the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, Lee said.

Grant was perhaps best known as the jolly host alongside more than 500 celebrities he inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The lifelong bachelor lived in a 14th-floor suite at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.

Grant will be missed.  You never saw a star getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame without Johnny by his side.
