Wave of rumors regarding the death of actress Daveigh Chase

Over the last day, social media has been flooded with reports regarding the death of actress Daveigh Chase, known primarily as the voice of Lilo in the film "Lilo & Stitch" and Chihiro in the English dub of "Spirited Away".

DiscussingFilm, a channel that reports extensively on the entertainment industry, noted in a post that the news of Chase's death at age 35 "is not verified by any official party or reliable source". The channel warned that this is the type of claim that spreads rapidly online and becomes established fact before any verification is conducted by institutional media outlets or her family members.

The report drew further reactions from users online, among them Lord_Kristine, who shared on his Twitter account his sorrow over the news. However, as of now, no official confirmation for the report has appeared from authorized sources, and there is a demand from media outlets to wait for a statement on behalf of the actress's family before drawing conclusions.
