Christine Cavanaugh, known as the voice of Babe the pig and Chuckie from Rugrats, has died.

An obituary in the Los Angeles Times said Cavanaugh died Dec. 22. She was 51.

According to Wikipedia, the voice actress had suffered from CML or chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Cavanaugh's career was launched with the voice of Gosalyn Duck from Darkwing Duck. She went on to do the voice of Chuckie from 1991 to 2003, Babe in 1995 and Dexter on Dexter's Laboratory from 1996 to 2003.

Chuckie on Rugrats? That show was a keystone of my childhood. And Dexter's Laboratory, too. Sad.

It's a reference to her role as Dexter (Dexter Laboratory), which people here may or may not have watched, and the idea is that as a supergenius, Dexter's "heaven" would be what's listed above, and since I'm not sure anyone else will ever voice that part again, the thinking is that Dexter (and her other roles) died with her.

That's not why I'm saying 'wtf'.

I can't imagine how socially awkward you must be in real life when you have infinitely many chances not to be on the internet.
