VIDEO: TV Host Regis Philbin Bums a Ride in NYC!

Regis Philbin is a fixture on the streets of NYC. So when the long-time talk show host couldn't find a cab to take him over to 10th Avenue, he was more than happy to accept a lift from a TMZ camera crew. Check out the video!

Media personality, actor and singer Regis Philbin is known for hosting talk and game shows since the 1960s. Sometimes called "the hardest working man in show business", he holds the Guinness World Record for the most time spent in front of a television camera. His trademarks include his excited manner, his Bronx accent, his wit, and irreverent ad-libs.

Philbin is most widely known as the host of the New York City-based nationally syndicated talk show Live! with Regis and Kathie Lee starting in 1988, which became Live! with Regis and Kelly starting in 2001 and continued until Philbin's departure in 2011.
