LOS ANGELES — Handlers say Gidget the Chihuahua, whose Taco Bell commercials made her a star, has died.

She was 15.

The owner of Studio Animal Services says Gidget suffered a massive stroke late Tuesday at her trainer’s home in Santa Clarita and had to be euthanized.

Gidget was the sassy mascot in Taco Bell commercials from 1997 to 2000.

While other dogs had bit parts, it was her bug-eyed, big-eared face that is seen pronouncing, in a dubbed male voice, “Yo quiero Taco Bell,” Spanish for “I want Taco Bell.”

The ads made the Taco Bell mascot wildly popular, although they provoked some criticism from activists who felt they used Mexican stereotypes.


Gidget also had a role in the movie “Legally Blonde 2.”

Damn queers

Most dog stars are female. Benji was female, RinTinTin was female, Lassie, etc...
They're more...er..visually appealing than their male counterparts. Less to explain to the kids later.

With all this in mind. RIP Gidget!

Not over here or at least not widely public. I never knew of taco bell until Demolition Man, I have never seen an ad and I do not know of any taco bell in mexican territory.

Well, if there are no Taco Bells in Mexico that's probably why you've never seen a commercial for Taco Bell and thus the dog was never popular there. T'would be kinda silly for them to advertise for something that isn't available there

The dog that played Lassie was supposed to be female but was actually a male. Male collies are much prettier than females.

Just like birds.

It's all about the reproductive value.

Yes exactly, its a camouflage mechanism so the female attracts less attention to their young.

I was talking about the activists protesting about mexican stereotypes, no one complained over here, since it is barely known.

I see commercials for Sonic and Jack in the Box all the time, yet neither of those exist in my part of the country.

Me too. Granted, I'm watching LA and Atlanta local channels by satellite.
