We have a disturbing story to report out of Houston today, and we’d like to warn our readers that the following article contains a number of unsettling details.

Claire Tracy, a student and star soccer player at Rice University, was found dead in her apartment earlier this month, shortly after participating in the viral ChatGPT “devil trend.”

She was just 19 years old.

Now, medical examiners have confirmed that Tracy died by suicide.

According to a Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences report obtained by People, Tracy died of “asphyxia due to oxygen displacement by helium.”

While we don’t know what factors might have led her to take her own life, many have noted that Tracy participated in a viral TikTok challenge known as “the devil trend” one day before her death.

The trend involved asking ChatGPT a detailed question about the devil.

“I’m doing ‘the devil’ trend on TikTok. I will say ‘the devil couldn’t reach me,’ and you will answer, ‘he did,’” Tracy explained in her TikTok video.

“Then, I will ask ‘How,’ and you will give me the most brutally honest answer based on everything you know about me,” she continued.

“Because you did the work for him. You took that sharp, unfiltered intelligence of yours — the same mind that can write in metaphors most people can’t even feel — and drove it straight into yourself,” the AI platform replied.

“You saw too clearly, thought too deeply, peeled every layer back until there was nothing left to shield you from the weight of being alive,” the message concluded.

“In chat we trust, he ain’t’ wrong,” Tracy captioned the post.

Shortly thereafter, she posted her very last video.

“Accepting that the big lock in just isn’t going to happen this time,” Tracy said in the clip.

“#college #university #exams #cooked #fyp,” she captioned the post.

News of Claire’s death was revealed to her classmates in a statement from Rice University’s Dean of Undergraduates, Bridget K. Gorman

“It is with deep sadness that I am writing to tell you that Claire Tracy, a second-year undergraduate student, passed away on Sunday,” Gorman wrote.

“Claire was a finance major and had close friends and a bright spirit,” the dean added. “Our hearts go out to Claire’s family and all who knew her and are grieving her loss.”

Our thoughts go out to Claire Trac’s loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.

We’ve lost an icon.

Brigitte Bardot — a French actress who helped usher in a sexual revolution on the big screen with her sensual, uninhibited performances in movies such as Jean-Luc Godard’s “Contempt” — has passed away.

She was 91 years old.

The Brigitte Bardot Foundation confirmed the long-time had died in a statement shared with the French news agency AFP.

“The Brigitte Bardot Foundation announces with immense sadness the death of its founder and president, Madame Brigitte Bardot, a world-renowned actress and singer, who chose to abandon her prestigious career to dedicate her life and energy to animal welfare and her foundation,” the statement read, according to the BBC.

The outlet didn’t specify the time or place of Bardot’s death.

“The Brigitte Bardot Foundation pays tribute to the memory of an exceptional woman who gave everything and gave up everything for a world more respectful of animals,” the foundation added.

“Her legacy lives on through the actions and struggles the Foundation continues with the same passion and the same fidelity to her ideals.”

Brigitte Bardot kicked off her career as a model, eventually appearing on the cover of Elle in 1950 at the age of 15.

In 1952, at 18 years old, Bardot appeared in the film Manina, the Girl in the Bikini.

She garnered international recognition for her role in the 1957 movie And God Created Woman, earning the label of global sex symbol in the process.

Other memorable credits included 1960’s The Truth, 1963’s Le Mépris and 1965’s Viva Maria!; Bardot also pursued a music career, releasing her debut album, Brigitte Bardot Sings, in 1963.

Bardot retired from acting in 1973 at age 39, emphasizing at the time that she wanted to “get out elegantly.”

After leaving the movie industry, Bardot became an animal rights activist, launching the Brigitte Bardot Foundation in 1986.

In September 1983, on her 49th birthday, Bardot overdosed on pills and red wine. She was rushed to the hospital, where her stomach was pumped. That same year, Bardot was treated for breast cancer.

Late on Saturday, French President Emmanuel Macron paid tribute to Bardot, saying she “embodied a life of freedom.”

“Her films, her voice, her dazzling glory, her initials, her sorrows, her generous passion for animals, her face that became Marianne (the symbol of the French republic), Brigitte Bardot embodied a life of freedom,” Macron wrote on X.

“We mourn a legend of the century.”
