Famous Taco Bell Chihuahua Dead at 15

[Montana Jim]

The famous Taco Bell Spokesdog – who charmed audiences with the catchphrase “Yo Quiero Taco Bell” – has died.

Gidget, the 15-year-old Chihuaha, suffered a fatal stroke Tuesday night, according to a report from People magazine.

The “mostly-retired” canine also appeared in the film “Legally Blonde 2,” starring as Bruiser’s mom. In addition, she appeared in a commercial for the ‘90s edition of Trivial Pursuit.

When she wasn’t starring in films and commercials, Gidget enjoyed taking hikes, sunning her fur and sleeping for 23 hours, her trainer Sue Chipperton told People.

“She made so many people happy,” Chipperton said. “Gidget always knew where the camera was.”




RIP little doggie.

There is a difference... this was a female dog who pretended to be a male.

...the list goes on. Any day now, we may hear that Elvis has died. Political correctness killed those ads. My wife is from Mexico. We don't eat at Taco Bell much, but she thinks the commercials were funny, but probably stereotyping. The same folks who got the commercials stopped have apparently not gotten around to seeing the movie 'Beverly Hills Chihuahua' yet, I guess. I am preparing to go after Larry the Cable Guy, Jeff Foxworthy, and particularly that Ron White for depicting my people in a demeaning light.

That's what they've been telling us for years! Too much fast food & you'll get a stroke!
