You only have to yap the phrase and a visage of tiny dog with huge ears and a big toothy grin comes to mind.
“Yo quiero Taco Bell.”
Gidget — the Chihuahua made famous by the Taco Bell advertising campaign — died of a stroke at age 15.
Gidget’s owner, Karen McElhatton, tells Usmagazine.com Gidget passed away Sunday.
“She had a good day and was running around as normal,” McElhatton, tells Usmagazine. “We’re happy that she was very well off right until the end.”
Are there tacos in heaven?
* Yes
In addition to her gig as “spokesdog” for Irvine-based Taco Bell, Gidget appeared in a commercial for the ’90s edition of Trivial Pursuit and played Bruiser’s mom in Legally Blonde 2 (Moonie, the dog who played Bruiser, was her best friend and sometime roommate at Chipperton’s house).
