BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Silvio Santos, a Brazilian television executive and presenter known for his beaming smile and catchphrase "Who wants money?" has died after a decades-long career in the spotlight. He was 93.

Santos owned the television network SBT and created several variety shows. The most famous of them carried his name, which he hosted since 1963, and in recent years had aired on Sunday nights. It is one of Brazil's longest-running television programs. Santos brought several other successful programs to his network, such as "Show of the Million" and the reality show "Artists' House."

"Today heaven is happy with the arrival of our beloved Silvio Santos. He lived 93 years to bring happiness and love to all Brazilians. … That wide smile and familiar voice will forever be remembered with much gratitude," the SBT network said in a statement Saturday on social media.
