Demi Moore mourns beloved dog
Demi Moore's beloved dog Pilaf has reportedly passed away.
Demi Moore is reportedly mourning the loss of her beloved dog.
The Substance actress' micro chihuahua Pilaf has been her constant companion over the last few years, regularly making appearances alongside her famous owner on the red carpet or on talk shows, but according to the Mail on Sunday newspaper, the pooch has passed away at the age of just five.
Pilaf hasn't been seen on Demi's Instagram account since 3 March, when the 63-year-old star shared photographs of her pet before the Actor Awards, and the dog's own page on the platform hasn't been updated since the end of February.
The Ghost actress previously spoke of how Pilaf travels everywhere with her and has had a lot of experiences many people could only dream of.
Demi laughed to Britain’s HELLO! magazine: “She’s like my little friend, my partner.
“She stretched out on that Air France La Premiere flight. She loved it, She’s my little travel mate and she’s just a joy.
“I usually have her in my little sling.
“We go everywhere – she’s been to the French Open, the Louvre, and Broadway shoes.
“She just saw Romeo and Juliet with Tom Holland in London. She was quite moved. She thought the performance was extraordinary, as it was.”
Pilaf has almost 30,000 followers on her own Instagram account and Demi thinks she has a natural star quality about her.
She said: “She is quite a star. She’s had ore write-ups than you could ever imagine. Who knew?
“She is a pound and a half, the runt of her litter.
“She is a star and she knows it – that’s the thing. But she knows it in a way that she owns it.”
Meanwhile, Demi recently discussed the use of AI in Hollywood and while she thinks the industry needs to work with the technology, she doesn't feel it can replace "true art".
Speaking at a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival, Demi explained: "AI is here, and so to fight it is to, in a sense, fight something that is a battle that we will lose. So to find ways in which we can work with it, I think, is a more valuable path.
"Are we doing enough to protect ourselves? I don’t know. My inclination would be to say probably not."
Despite this, Demi stressed that there are limits to what AI can achieve in the film business.
The Landman star - who became the world's highest-paid actress in the 90s - reflected: "There are beautiful aspects of being able to utilise it, but the truth is, there really isn’t anything to fear, because what it can never replace is what true art comes from, which is not the physical. It comes from the soul."
