anna-nicole-smith-dannielynn-video-to-britney-spears-2-21-07.jpgNow, this is a very odd turn of events & rather fortuitous as that.  According to Us Weekly, Anna Nicole Smith tried to reach out to a pregnant Britney Spears six months before her tragic death.

Apparently, in a home video an 8-months-pregnant Anna Nicole addressed Spears & tried to reach out as a potential friend.  Interestingly, Smith’s daughter Dannielynn & Spears’ son Jayden were born just five days apart last September.  Here’s what the incredible video reportedly reveals: 

“If you see this for some oddball reason – because I look at your stuff, too [referring to Spears’ Web site] – and you want to be friends, I would love so much to hang out with you,” she said. “I think you’re totally cool, and I think we’re about to have babies around the same time…I would just love to meet you.”

Anna Nicole continued by giving Brit her contact information, “You can call my lawyer, my best friend, my confidant Howard Stern. I think everyone has his number. He’ll give it out to you, Britney. Take cares [sic], and I hope that you do great on your second pregnancy. I’m sure you won’t even see this, but if you do, I’d really love to talk to you. Bye.”

But alas, it doesn’t look like a Smith & Spears meetup ever took place.  A Britney insider states, “Britney is so wrapped up in her own world and herself that she just doesn’t care.”

Yep, that just about sums up Britney’s attitude at the present & it goes double for her children whom she didn’t see several days before she entered rehab, for the second go-round.

You tell me- Would an Anna Nicole Smith & Britney Spears meeting have been a beneficial one, or would the room have exploded due to having too much stupid in the room?

Thanks to Us Weekly for the scoop & the image of Anna Nicole with her daughter Dannielynn.




anna-nicole-smith-stoned-video-2-20-07.jpgA new Anna Nicole Smith video has surfaced, thanks to the diligent folks at TMZ (see video here).   The video shows a semi-functional Anna Nicole speaking in a baby voice with badly painted clown makeup on her face, clearly on some type of drugs.

Howard K. Stern mans the video tape & even goes so far as to say that the footage would be worth a lot of money.  Wow, that Howard K. is such a stand-up guy, you know?

The stammering tape of Anna Nicole aired Monday night on FOX New's Greta Van Susteren's show & was supposedly shot when Smith was eight-months pregnant.  Hmmm, I hear doing drugs while pregnant isn't so good for the child.  But maybe that's just what big brother wants you to believe, Anna.

As Howard K. Stern shoots the footage, he continuously asks her, "Is this a mushroom trip?" To which Anna Nicole Smith can only say, "Huh?"

Finally Stern just says, "I'm kidding."

Later, the stoney video shows Howard K. Stern's true colors with Howard saying, “This footage is worth money.”  While the busty blonde replies, “Why? What footage?”

It's a terrible thing, but it's a very classic Anna Nicole Smith video, I'm sad to say.

What do you think of Howard K. Stern now?

howard-k-stern-poll-2-15-07.jpg

Thanks to Us Weekly, I have the scoop on Howard K. Stern's "The Insider" interview.

On February 10, Howard K. Stern, Anna Nicole Smith's partner, former attorney & one of the many possible fathers of her child Dannielynn Hope, was interviewed by "The Insider".  Stern discussed Anna Nicole's unexpected death, then broke down in apparent tears of turmoil.

The question I have is this, do we believe Howard K. Stern's grief is genuine?

According to Jo-Ellan Dimitrius, a jury expert, she's no buying the act.  Dimitrius reveals, "His face looks sad, but he's avoiding eye contact.  The crying sounds fake. His eyes aren't even wet. It's an act."

What do you think, are Stern's tears fake?  Is Howard K. pretending to be stricken with grief after the death of Anna Nicole Smith.  You tell me.




anna-nicole-smith-virgie-arthur-dannielynn-hope-fate-2-14-07.jpg Well, we haven't heard the last from Anna Nicole Smith.  Even though Smith was found dead last Thursday in her hotel room there are still many more things to wrap up, like the fate of her daughter Dannielynn Hope.

Anna Nicole's mother Virgie Arthur has flown to the Bahamas to try & remove the 5-month-old from the hands of Smith's partner, and one of the supposed fathers, Howard K. Stern.

Virgie filed an official complaint with the police Monday, citing that she is worried for Dannielynn's well-being.

Apparently Arthur already has a spokesman lined up, David Lee, who made this statement, "Her only concern in all of this is getting the baby away from Howard Stern.  She will do whatever she can to get the child away from [him]."

"There is an injunction to prevent the baby from leaving the Bahamas," said Virgie's lawyer.

Insiders reveal that Anna Nicole Smith's mom now ruffled the feathers of attorney Stern, who is more than happy to go for a face-off where Dannielynn Hope is concerned.  So, it looks like it could be years before the fate of Smith's baby daughter is ever determined & by that time I'm sure that Dannielynn can make up her own mind & become a Playboy playmate herself.

Thanks to Us Weekly for the only image of Virgie Arthur I could round up.

Anna Nicole Smith Autopsy Underway

anna-nicole-smith-autopsy-2-9-07.jpg

Anna Nicole Smith’s autopsy is currently underway.  If coroners find that Smith’s death was of natural causes, we should know the results of the procedure before too long.

However, if the autopsy reveals foul play or drugs, it may be a while yet until we know the answer behind Anna Nicole Smith’s sudden & untimely death.



anna-nicole-smith-larry-birkhead-father-2-9-07.jpgThe news from I’mNotObsessed is that photographer Larry Birkhead truly is the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s 5-month-old daughter Dannielynn Hope.  I still think the jury’s still out on whether Birkhead or Smith’s  partner & ex-attorney Howard K. Stern is the father of the baby girl, but here’s the scoop all the same.

“ABC news is reporting that Virgie Arthur, Anna Nicole Smith’s mother, said today on “Good Morning America” that Larry Birkhead is Danielynn’s father. She also said that her daughter’s death was drug related.

“I think she had too many drugs,” Arthur told “GMA” anchor Robin Robert, “just like Danny”. She has also said that the father of her granddaughter, Dannielyn Hope, is not Smith’s attorney Howard K. Stern, as both Smith and Stern claim, but Smith’s ex-boyfriend, Larry Birkhead.

I dunno guys.  What do you this about this news?

Police Investigating Anna Nicole Smith’s Sudden Death

anna-nicole-smith-peta.jpg

39-year-old Anna Nicole Smith died Thursday afternoon at the Joe Di Maggio Memorial Hospital in Hollywood, Florida.  The news is creeping along about Smith’s sudden death, but we do have some updates for you.

Anna Nicole’s current lawyer, Ron Rale, released another statement saying, “Anna Nicole is deceased.  We do not know the cause.”

As reported earlier, Anna Nicole was found collapsed & unconscious in her sixth-floor hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino located on an Indian reservation.  At around 2pm paramedics were called to the scene after a private nurse dialed 911.

“Anna Nicole Smith checked in to Hard Rock for a vacation on Monday night at 8 p.m.,” a PR coordinator for the hotel revealed.

“She was due to check out Friday afternoon. She fainted at 2 p.m. here and was rushed to Memorial Hospital.”

Access Hollywood is now alleging that they have a reliable witness that says a Hard Rock employee found Anna Nicole in her bed underneath a sheet where she had died from asphyxiation from her own vomit.

That same source from Access Hollywood is insisting that Smith ingested a “child’s sedative,” & “kept passing out” before she died.

As we mentioned Thursday, one of Smith’s bodyguards administered CPR but Anna Nicole could not be revived.  Access is also revealing that fire crews & the emergency personnel called to the scene also performed CPR on Anna, as well as placing a tube down her throat in an effort to resuscitate Smith.

Minutes later an ambulance transported her to Memorial Regional Hospital, where Anna Nicole Smith was pronounced dead at 2:49 p.m.

Seminole, Florida police Chief Charlie Tiger made another statement to reporters, saying, “The cause of death will be determined by the Broward County medical examiner and the Seminole Police Department will continue its investigation into this matter.”

Anna Nicole had been going through a very rough patch in her life.  Smith’s 20-year-old son Daniel died September 10 with her in the Bahamas just days after Anna Nicole gave birth to daughter Dannielynn Hope.  According to the pathology reports, Daniel had died from a lethal dose of methadone & antidepressants.

Soon after Daniel died, Anna Nicole tried to get her life in order & had a civil ceremony where she somewhat married her ex-attorney & boyfriend Howard K. Stern.  You would have thought Anna Nicole was on the road to recovery, when her ex-beau photographer Larry Birkhead insisted that he was the actual father of Dannielynn Hope, not Howard K. Stern. 

A paternity suit ensued, brought on by Birkhead even though Anna Nicole always insisted that Stern was Dannielynn Hope’s  father & is listed as such on the child’s birth certificate.

And just this past Wednesday, a Los Angeles judge ordered Anna Nicole  and 5-month-old Dannielynn to submit to a DNA test by February 21 in order to determine the paternity of the baby girl.

And if that wasn’t enough to throw anyone over the edge, Anna Nicole was also named in a class-action lawsuit against diet pill company TrimSpa, for which she was a client & spokesperson. This lawsuit alleged that the marketing of TrimSpa X32 was false & misleading to the public.

So, while Anna Nicole Smith was alone at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, with Dannielynn Hope in the care of a friend in the Bahamas, Anna Nicole was all alone with her thoughts & these encroaching circumstances.  I’m afraid that what we will find from the autopsy, which is being done today, is that Anna Nicole Smith took her own life to get away from the hell she was living in.  I think Anna Nicole did commit suicide.  It’s a sad thing, especially with a baby girl left behind.

Both Larry Birkhead & Howard K. Stern have yet to make a statement regarding Anna Nicole’s death.

You tell me- What do you think of Anna Nicole Smith’s sudden death, was it a complete surprise?

Friends of Anna Nicole Smith React to Her Sudden Death

anna-nicole-smith-friends-dead-2-9-07.jpgAs we are all trying to put a grasp on the fact that Anna Nicole Smith suddenly died Thursday afternoon, I thought we would take a look at what her friends & family are saying about the tenacious blonde. 

Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner:

“I am very saddened to learn about Anna Nicole’s passing. She was a dear friend who meant a great deal to the Playboy family and to me personally. My thoughts and prayers are with her friends and loved ones during this difficult time.”

Anna Nicole Smith’s sister, Donna Hogan:

“We feel that the death of her son left her deeply saddened, a sadness she hid from everyone. As a mother of three children, I am anguished by this tragic event and the fact that her new baby daughter Dannielynn Hope is now without a mother.”

The family of Smith’s former husband J. Howard Marshall II:

“Our family was shocked by the untimely death of Anna Nicole Smith. We wish to express our sympathies to her family in this difficult time. We understand that many of you will be asking questions concerning the ongoing litigation with Anna. Out of respect to her friends and family, we will reserve comment on the litigation at this time.”

Anna Nicole’s friend & decorator Bobby Trendy:

“It is a total shock. Poor Anna Nicole. I am so devastated. This was destined to happen because of her lifestyle but nobody would wish this upon her. But it was destined to happen. Her life was so crazy and never in control.

Paul Marciano,  Co-CEO of Guess for which Smith once worked:

“This is a very tragic and sad day. Personally I feel she did not survive the loss of her son Daniel, who was the love of her life.”

E! Networks:

“E! Networks is deeply saddened by the tragic news of Anna Nicole Smith’s death. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones.”

Larry King:

“She was a special person; she was an unusual person. She was genuine; she was funny; she had some class. I feel very, very sorry for everybody concerned, but mostly for that little girl.”
TRIMSPA, the diet pill company where Anna Nicole was a spokesperson & which is currently under several lawsuits:

“Today, Anna Nicole Smith’s grief stricken and tumultuous personal life came to an end. Anna came to our Company as a customer, but she departs it as a friend. While life for Anna Nicole was not easy these past few months, she held dear her husband, Howard K. Stern, her daughter, Dannielynn Hope, her most cherished friends, beloved dogs, and finally, her work with TRIMSPA. Anna knew both the joy of giving life, and the heartache of losing a child. We pray that she is granted the peace that eluded her more recent days on earth, and that she finds comfort in the presence of her son, Daniel.”

PETA:

“PETA is extremely upset by the news of Anna Nicole Smith’s untimely death. She was a great friend to animals and used every opportunity to speak out against senseless cruelty. We always thought Anna Nicole was a perfect fit for PETA because, just like us, she not only hated cruelty to animals and loved her dog but also couldn’t be ignored, and no matter what people thought of her, they always had an opinion, one way or another.

A long-time vegetarian who had slimmed down into a stunning beauty when she stopped eating meat, Anna Nicole spoke out against Iams because of its cruel animal tests, spoke up for baby seals bludgeoned to death for their fur in Canada, and posed as Marilyn Monroe in one of PETA’s most striking ad campaigns, ‘Gentlemen Prefer Fur-Free Blondes.’ It is a tragedy when anyone passes away before their time, but with Anna Nicole, animals have lost a true hero and PETA has lost a good friend. We will miss her.”

I have a feeling many people will, PETA.

Anna Nicole Smith Death, Suicide?

anna-nicole-smith-suicide-2-8-07.jpgAs you’ve noticed, we just found out that Playboy playmate Anna Nicole Smith has died. Smith was staying at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino where she was found collapsed in her sixth-floor hotel room.

A private nurse telephoned 911 & Anna Nicole’s bodyguard administered CPR, but Smith was proclaimed dead at the hospital she was rushed to.

Which leaves us wondering what happened to Anna Nicole? Was she really sick with the flu? Did she collapse after losing that 69 pounds so quickly? Where was her somewhat husband Howard K Stern when all this happened? Was it suicide?

Was Anna Nicole Smith so grieved over her son Daniel’s death that she took her own life? We can only wait to find out as the autopsy will not be performed until Friday & we probably won’t know the results of the autopsy for days, maybe even next week.

A world without Anna Nicole Smith? I don’t know if I can live in that kind of a world.

You tell me- Did Anna Nicole Smith commit suicide?



Anna Nicole Smith Found Dead at Hotel Thursday

anna-nicole-smith-dies-2-8-07.jpg 

Playboy playmate Anna Nicole Smith was found dead Thursday after collapsing in her hotel.  The 39-year-old blonde centerfold collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and she was later rushed to a hospital.

The chief investigator for Broward County Medical Examiner’s Office said the cause of death was still under investigation & than at autopsy would be done Friday.

It’s a tragic death for Anna Nicole’s family, after her 20-year-old son Daniel suddenly died last year in the Bahamas just days after she gave birth to her daughter Dannielynn.  Seminole Police Chief Charlie Tiger revealed that a private nurse had called 911 after they found Smith collapsed in her sixth floor hotel room.  Smith’s bodyguard apparently performed CPR, but Anna was declared dead at the hospital.

Rumors suspect the recent 69 pounds that Anna Nicole lost when she became a spokesperson for TrimSpa weight loss supplement.  Smith former attorney Lenard Leeds said that Smith ”always had problems with her weight going up and down, and there’s no question she used alcohol.” Leeds went on to say that it was no secret that ”she had a very troubled life” as well as “so many, many problems.”

“She wanted to be like Marilyn her whole life and ironically died in a similar manner,” Leeds added.

Anna Nicole’s present lawyer Ron Rale told The Associated Press that he had spoken with Smith earlier this week where she complained of flu-like symptoms as well as a fever and was still grieving over her son.

“Poor Anna Nicole,” Rale stated.

“She’s been the underdog. She’s been besieged … and she’s been trying her best and nobody should have to endure what she’s endured.”

In a statement to the press, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner said, “I am very saddened to learn about Anna Nicole’s passing. She was a dear friend who meant a great deal to the Playboy family and to me personally.”

Well, this all comes as quite a surprise.  What do we think?  Suicide?  Did somewhat husband Howard K Stern kill Anna Nicole?  Did someone murder her son Daniel?  Who stands to inherit Smith’s cash?

Breaking News: Anna Nicole Smith Dead

howard-k-stern-anna-nicole-smith-allegations-daniel-2-7-07.jpg

Anna Nicole Smith’s lover & somewhat husband Howard K Stern has denied allegations that are circling around that he may have given her son Daniel drugs before his mysterious death.

20-year-old Daniel Smith died September 10, 2006 while visiting Anna Nicole in the Bahamas, soon after the birth of her daughter Dannielynn.

Stern states, “I would never hurt Daniel in any way and to implicate me on that, that’s just despicable, absolutely despicable.”

Daniel’s autopsy revealed that he had taken methadone shortly before his death & may have been a contributing factor to his fatal heart attack.

Howard K Stern as well as Anna Nicole Smith are required to testify at the coroner’s inquest in March.

What do you think?

Anna Nicole Smith & Howard K. Stern Kinda Get Married

anna-nicole-smith-howard-stern-9-29-2006.jpg

Anna Nicole Smith & her lawyer/boyfriend/possible father of her child Howard K. Stern exchanged vows Thursday aboard a boat near Nassau.

There was no, however, formal marriage and the ceremony is “not legally binding.” So that makes a lot of sense….

Michael Scott, another attorney for Anna Nicole, stated that the couple “exchanged vows before God” while onboard the boat but did not obtain a marriage license.

“It was not a formal, legal arrangement,” Scott said.

Anna Nicole is having a busy year, lawsuits, marriages, her son Daniel Wayne tragically dying & a newborn daughter whose paternity is being fought over.

Stern recently told talk show host Larry King that he is the true father of Anna’s newborn baby, while photojournalist Larry Birkhead is fighting for a DNA test to prove if he may be the real father.

In a response to Stern & Smith’s “marriage”, Birkhead stated, “I wish them all the luck in their commitment, however my only commitment is to have a life with a daughter I was told was mine.”

Poor old fool. We’ll see pretty soon who the real father is. I’m placing my bet on Pee Wee Herman. You?
