Members Pine Charles Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Oh, wow! I think I side with Monique Goen on the Chyna issue. I remember seeing an interview with Anna and Chyna together. Chyna kept on hugging Anna and like pinching her, and Anna seemed really annoyed by her.

Members Q Steph Posted February 9, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Just heard on MSNBC with Rita Cosby that Access Hollywood is saying that their source said that the nurse who went to anna nicole's room pulled the sheet back and it appeared that she choked on her own vomit. ETA: Access Hollywood | EXPLOSIVE NEW CLAIM: SMITH CHOKED ON HER OWN VOMIT | Celebrity and Hollywood News Associated Press EXPLOSIVE NEW CLAIM: SMITH CHOKED ON HER OWN VOMIT HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (February 8, 2007) -- According to a credible source, an employee of Anna Nicole Smith found her in her room in the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. The employee pulled back a sheet and discovered that she appeared to have choked on her own vomit. The same source claims that Smith took what was referred to as a "children's sedative," and had "kept passing out" before her death. AccessHollywood.com has learned from this same source that one of the attending physicians at Memorial Regional Hospital was Dr. Randy Katz. When we contacted Dr. Katz, he acknowledged that he was indeed an attending physician, but Dr. Katz would not comment on any specifics related to his care of Smith. AccessHollywood.com was unable to reach Smith's companion Howard K. Stern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Greg Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Poor Anna. I really liked her...she was so beautiful. Very funny too. I also liked how she spoke her mind. I was a big fan of the Anna Nicole Show. She didn't give a [!@#$%^&*]...she let it all hang out (sometimes literally) I never thought she was a train wreck or a gold digger or any of the rest of the [!@#$%^&*] people said she was. But damn girl, talk about Drama Queen! (And I do mean that in good taste) Her story is playing out better than a soap. You have --'Gold Digger' marries billionaire (I think she did love her husband) --Pain pill and alcohol addiction --Who's the Daddy? storyline with her baby --2nd child born/1st child dies 3 days later (murder?) --Quickie marriage to her lawyer (of convenience?) --Court Battle with step son for millions of dollars (Screw him...that's her money) --Dies almost the same way as her son does --Was it suicide? Was she murdered? Was it drug related? My goodness... Her life is beyond a movie of the week. It's would be funny if it wasn't just so sad. I really hope she is at peace and she is with her son again somewhere. RIP You will be missed...but remembered for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members R3dheartz Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 That is so weird that she was saying that stuff especially something about if she sees her on TV one more time. I wonder if they will say anything tomorrow on the View. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Josh Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 I'm sure she'll get crap over this! Hopefully she'll make a nice statement about her death tomorrow! But it is The View. Oye! Rosie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mateo22 Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Dear LAWD. Please, the View was taped before the ladies even knew about the untimely death of ANS. And they are not the first group of people to poke fun at the way ANS used to act. Tomorrow's show is also a taped eppy, so I doubt they knew when they taped that one as well. We'll prolly see something about it on Monday. Roise meant no harm by saying those things as did none of the other ladies. The View is a show where women from different 'walks of life' and different VIEWS give their opinions on an open panel in front of what SHOULD be an open forum.

Members Drew Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 I don't think what she said was all that terrible. By what I was hearing I was expecting a Donald Trump-esq mocking ... but it was nothing. This was not overly mean, she mentions her life's a tragedy, and that she seems medicated, and did a blank stare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Southern Honey Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 I am just so saddened by this. Sad that so many factors pushed her to the edge, sad that so many vultures just wouldn't allow her to grieve for her boy. The media, Burkhead, those in litigation with her. Picking on her was like picking on a puppy that had already been hit by a car and left dying on the inside. I just hope she is finally at peace and with her son. She earned her rest.

Members juniorz1 Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 My cousin works at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & actually saw them trying to revive her in the lobby of the hotel. The rumor in the hotel was that she collapsed in front of one of the ballrooms while wandering the hotel. I really don't think she died in her room, from what he said. At least 8 EMTs were working on her, he said, and security was holding people back. There wouldn't have been such a production in the lobby of the hotel if she were found in her room.

Members bellcurve Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 It does look REALLY suspicious that Howard K. Stern hasn't even released a statement! I mean, he is a lawyer, isn't damage control what they do best?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 ^ it could be possible that he's just so grief striken he can't even think straight. But I mean, not even to release a statement saying as much? I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Pine Charles Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Here's an article - with a small quote from Joy Behar - that I think sums everything up perfectly. She certainly was a tragic figure. What Drew Us to Anna Nicole? Feb 8, 7:29 PM EST The Associated Press NEW YORK -- Anybody who arrived from Mars and wanted to know what all the fuss was over this Anna Nicole Smith would do well to watch just one clip: her appearance at the 2004 American Music Awards. Prancing onstage in a tight-fitting black gown that showcased her cleavage — which was, as all else about her, larger than life — she grabbed your attention. Her looks were outlandish, but there was beauty beneath the excess. And then she spoke. "Like my body?" she asked, tracing her fingers over her breasts. Her slurred words spilled out dangerously. She was clearly very high on something, and you wondered if she would survive, literally. It was hard to watch. And, of course, harder not to. Scant hours after news emerged of her death Thursday at age 39, many people were hard pressed to describe what exactly Anna Nicole Smith was. Actress? Model? Reality star? Rich widow? "I don't know exactly what she did," said talk show host Joy Behar, hearing the news over the phone. And yet, trying to put her finger on why we watched this strange woman over the years, she came up with two things: Dysfunction. And beauty. "No question, she was beautiful," said Behar, of ABC's "The View." "We know people like to watch dysfunction. But beauty gives you something extra to look at. Dysfunction and beauty: Now that's something to watch." How was she dysfunctional? Really, how wasn't she? Her strange life seemed to veer from one outsized struggle to another. She struggled famously with her weight and with her family. She sometimes even struggled to speak without slurring. She had a TV show that could be so embarrassing you'd want to watch it with dark sunglasses on. Much more tragically, she lost her 20-year-old son. Five months ago she had a baby daughter and now two men claim to be the father. In other words, she was a perfect pop culture icon. By contrast, another famous creature of Internet celebrity, the chic-er, more sophisticated and chillier Paris Hilton, has much less to fascinate us, grainy sex video notwithstanding. It's hard to feel sorry for her. "With Anna Nicole, she was pathetic but at the same time you thought, 'Gosh, if I could just scoop you up and fix things, it would be OK,'" said Jerry Herron, a professor of American culture at Wayne State University. "You wouldn't want to scoop up Paris Hilton.'" "Anna Nicole was," Herron noted, "in both her actions and her physical being, such an over-exaggerated version of what we both lust for and loathe in our society. Bombshell blonde? Family feuds? Lots and lots of money? Weight troubles? Obscene self-revelations on TV? She had it all." The compelling mix of beauty and vulnerability is just one quality that has led to comparisons with Marilyn Monroe, another sexy, tragic blonde who Smith liked to compare herself to. The comparison is tempting, but the difference is monumental. "Marilyn Monroe was an artist, a real performer, able to evoke in audiences a real empathy and a passion," said Richard Walter, a film professor at UCLA. "There is NO comparison." And yet he sees one strong point in common: the simple beginnings, the climb from total obscurity to fame. "She came from humble origins and achieved celebrity and wealth, one way or another," Walter said. "And that is an American story." For celebrity editor Janice Min of US Weekly, it's the element of perseverance that stands out in Smith's tale, which she sees as "almost this perverse Hollywood Horatio Alger story." "She fought against so many obstacles — poverty. Teen pregnancy. A bad home life." And of course, ridicule. "But she persisted, where others would have shrunk away out of humiliation and shame." It might have made her look pathetic. But it also made it exceedingly hard to look away. http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=250...=7703&mpc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
