**Renée Victor, Beloved Voice of Abuelita in ‘Coco,’ Passes Away at 86: The Afterlife Just Got a Whole Lot More Chaotic**
In a shocking turn of events that has left the world reeling, Renée Victor, the beloved voice of Abuelita in Pixar’s ‘Coco,’ has passed away at the ripe old age of 86. Sources say she was last seen arguing with a piñata about the proper way to make tamales. “She was a fierce advocate for culinary correctness,” said her neighbor, Juanita “The Spice Queen” Rodriguez. “I mean, who else would dare to tell a piñata it was filled with stale candy?”
Victor’s passing has sent shockwaves through the animation community, with many wondering how the afterlife will cope without her. “I can’t imagine the Land of the Dead without her,” said fellow voice actor and part-time mariachi, Carlos “The Unfortunate” Gonzalez. “I mean, who will keep the spirits in line? I can already hear them arguing over who gets to play the maracas first!”
In a statement released by her family, they said, “Renée always said she wanted to be remembered for her role as Abuelita, but honestly, we’re just hoping she doesn’t haunt us for not finishing her secret mole recipe.”
Fans have taken to social media to express their grief, with one user tweeting, “I’m not crying; I just have a lot of dust in my eyes. And maybe some onions. Okay, fine, I’m crying.”
As the world mourns, we can only hope that Renée is up there in the afterlife, arguing with the greats like Frida Kahlo and Salvador Dalí over who makes the best enchiladas. One thing’s for sure: the afterlife just got a whole lot more chaotic—and delicious.
