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.”

I'm no fan of taco bell, nor chihauhas, but I do know what it feels like to have a beloved icon die. So, I'm with you.

Somewhere I still have my talking Chihuahua plushy. Mine was the "viva gorditas" one with the little beret. <3

Taco Bell ads were never the same when they stop using the Taco Bell Chihuahua, she will be missed (at least she lived a long life for a dog).
