3 | Christine Josephine Cavanaugh (née Sandberg, August 16, 1963 -- December 22, 2014) was an American voice actress who reached prominence in the 1990s before abruptly retiring in 2001 to focus on living a quiet, simple life with her family. Afterwards, [[ReclusiveArtist nothing was heard about her]]... until December 22, 2014, when she died from cancer. To make matters worse, her death wasn't publicly reported until a week later. |

7 | She was known for cohorting with [[Creator/ElizabethDaily Elizabeth "E.G." Daily]], who played Tommy Pickles in ''WesternAnimation/{{Rugrats}}''. That relationship even continued when Elizabeth replaced her as Babe in ''Film/BabePigInTheCity'', and Christine was "happy" for her ''Rugrats'' co-star. This recast was the result of Christine holding out for a higher salary. |
