Gidget, the Taco Bell Chihuahua died today at the age of 15. She had a stroke.
Yo quero Gidget. Have a taco for me.
Didn’t see a thread on this, so I had to mention that the Taco Bell Chihuahua (aka “Gidget”) has died. She was 15.
RIP, Yo Quiero Perro. 
I’m wondering…combined with the death of Walter Conkrite, does this mean it’s part of a new “dead celebrity trifecta”? Who would count as the third?
Well Liz Taylor is already pretty frail and MJ’s death has been emotionally devasting for her.
Joe Jackson is going to be interviewed about Gidget’s death on CNN this weekend. He’s already saying that the fact he never met the dog proves he never beat her, and that his new label will include tracks by and for Chihuahuas.
cronkite, mccourt, gidget. that’s three.
this summer has been horrible if you are in the public domain. celebrities are constantly checking for fingers of doom, spectors, and sickles.
You know, I always thought the Taco Bell Dog was a boy dog. Just like Lassie who was presented as a girl but played by a boy dog. What’s with this weird gender bending amongst the doggie set?
Guess they’re just freaky that way.

The closeness of the deaths of Gidget and You Can’t Do That On Television’s Les Lye is obviously not a coincidence. What do you think is in the tacos?
“Daaah…I heard that!”
Phil’s a convicted killer, so, yeah, I’d watch out for him too.
I think Gidget and Billy Mays, together, count as one celebrity. It’s interesting that Gidget had a more manly voice than Mays.
Oh, man. I just ate at Taco Hell the other day. I wonder if I’m somehow responsible for this?
