Overview
- Multiple outlets republished a Mail on Sunday/Daily Mail report published May 30–31 that Pilaf, Demi Moore’s micro‑chihuahua, has died at age five; no statement from Moore or her spokesman has been published.
- Pilaf was a high‑profile companion who frequently joined Moore at red carpets, fashion events and television appearances and appeared on the August 2024 Vogue 'Dogue' cover.
- Reporters note Pilaf had not appeared on Moore’s Instagram since March 3 and Pilaf’s own Instagram account was last updated in late February, details that outlets cited when reporting concern.
- Coverage highlights Pilaf’s tiny size and distinctive look — reported as about 1.5 pounds at birth with a permanently protruding tongue after losing teeth — and Moore’s past descriptions of the dog as her ‘‘pocketful of love.’'
- The story remains developing and currently rests on the Mail on Sunday report and syndication, so further confirmation or comment from Moore’s camp is the key next development to watch.
