LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Singer Robert Goulet, who shot to stardom by playing Sir Lancelot in the original stage version of "Camelot," is fighting for his life at a Los Angeles hospital, his wife Vera said on Tuesday.

In an interview with Reuters, Vera Goulet said her husband was under sedation and on a respirator at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center awaiting a decision on whether he can receive a lung transplant.

Goulet starred with Julie Andrews and Richard Burton in the original Broadway show "Camelot" and has since won Tony and Emmy awards.
