McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish Fish Found Dead in West Hollywood Apartment

“Frankie the Fish”—the singing salesfish for the McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish sandwich—was found dead early Thursday morning in his West Hollywood, Calif., apartment. TMZ is reporting that Frankie was seen late Wednesday night making a "Dollar Menu" run after hanging at swank Hollywood nightclub The Viper Room with Ashley Olsen, Steve-O, and Pete Doherty. Frankie skyrocketed to fame in 2009 largely due to a wildly popular series of Lenten Filet-O-Fish sandwich commercials. He also starred in several independent films including This Fish's Life and Don't Worry, Be Happy: The Story of Big Mouth Billy Bass. His school, which resides in a pond outside of Morton, Miss., has asked for privacy as they mourn their loss. Frankie was three years old.
