AsburySkinsFan Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 What is happening to all of our celebrities?! Taco Bell Chihuahua Dies http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20293002,00.html By Rennie Dyball Originally posted Wednesday July 22, 2009 11:40 AM EDT She charmed millions without ever saying a word, and managed to make fast food tacos adorable. Gidget, the Chihuahua best known for her Taco Bell ad campaign, died from a stroke on Tuesday night at age 15. "She made so many people happy," says Gidget's trainer, Sue Chipperton. PEOPLE met both Gidget and Sue at a Hollywood animals photo shoot in February, where the pup was a consummate pro and delighted the crew with her playful nature. The mostly retired actor lived out her days laying in the sun – "I like to joke that it's like looking after a plant," says Chipperton – and entertaining at shoots when her trainer brought her along. "Gidget," says Chipperton, "always knew where the camera was." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldskool Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 15 is about the right lifespan for a small dog breed like Chihuahua. She definitely was a media icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickalino Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 15 is about the right lifespan for a small dog breed like Chihuahua. So apparently, the dog didn't actually eat any of the meat in Taco Bell's tacos she endorsed, or that lifespan would have been much shorter.

SonOfWashington Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Weird, I never knew that it was a female. They always gave the dog the voice of a male. In fact, Carlos Alazraqui has done a lot of other voice over work. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skins PR Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 The dog had recently become a personal hero of mine. I feel like I am taking this harder than all of you. This is very much about me. Rest in peace little chihuahua. Sean Taylor is up there too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
