Dear James
Thank you for your email

I've heard that he committed suicide by sticking pencils up his nose and hitting his head of a wall because he was being bullied for appearing in the Frosties advert. There are loads of rumors but I don't know which ones are true. Sorry!!

According http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/weblog/comments/4235/
"1) That the kid committed suicide on account of the bullying he received since the ad aired.
2) That the kid was a cancer patient whose dying wish was to star in a Frosties ad"
So I think your daughter was telling the truth

There was a rumor going around about this. I heard he has since gone on the radio and said he's alive and well.
