Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Bravo, Cable, Gossip
Dannielynn’s daddy must be feeling a little lonely…or fame-hungry. Larry Birkhead, the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter, is in negotiations to join the cast of Bravo’s Millionaire Matchmaker. Talk about being out of your own league.
“I knew Anna Nicole. I fixed her up back in the day, and I want that child to have a great mom,” reality star Patti Stanger said of Smith and daughter Dannielynn.
This begs a question: whom did Stanger hook Smith up with? The woman’s dating record is sad at best.

A New Wrinkle in the Anna Nicole Smith Saga
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Reality, Talent, Gossip, Rumors
Just when you thought the Anna Nicole Smith headlines were over and everyone was going to get back to their lives, Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith’s Death had to come along and give us something new to gossip about. The book will hit stores Tuesday, and the fur has already started to fly. The text of the novel alleges that Larry Birkhead, who won the paternity case for Anna’s surviving child Dannielynn, and Howard K. Stern, who claimed to have a deep love relationship with Anna, are both planning to sue the book’s author Rita Cosby. Here’s why: the book alleges that Stern and Birkhead shared a sexual encounter before Anna Nicole’s death, then worked together to manipulate the media and glean profits from the tragedy. Birkhead admits he has not seen the book, but in a bold statement told the AP this will be “the most expensive lawsuit settlements in book publishing history.” Yowzah.
Stern has stated that he will aggressively pursue a libel case. Stern’s attorney is calling the book pure fiction. Cosby stands behind her book and her sources, saying the text of the book was run past attorneys and the publishing house prior to publication. The book is filled with allegations concerning a “secret deal” between Stern and Birkhead, though Birkhead says the timing of the book (the week marks the anniversary of Daniel’s death and Dannielynn’s birth) was calculated. Cosby says she wrote the book specifically for Dannielynn…though it isn’t likely the baby knows quite how to read just yet, and the subject matter surely won’t be appropriate for her until a decade or two has passed.

Larry Birkhead is Dannielynn’s Daddy
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Reality, Features, Gossip, News
When Anna Nicole Smith left the party called life on February 8, 2007, she left behind a legacy of questions, court battles, and the most famous infant since the Lindbergh baby. It took many days before she could be buried, weeks longer to determine how she died, and it wasn’t until Tuesday, April 10, 2007 that the world knew who fathered Anna Nicole’s child. Howard K. Stern, longtime friend, companion, and lawyer to Anna Nicole Smith has claimed parentage from the start. His claim seemed to be supported by a Bahamas birth certificate stating Stern as the father, a certificate that was dismissed in court because signatures were not properly placed. But Stern’s claims were disputed, even before the death of Anna Nicole Smith, by her ex-boyfriend Larry Birkhead. After her death, Prince Fredric Von Anhalt also came forward claiming responsibility, while Anna’s mother Virgie Hogan Hart made custody claims and overtures. Hugh Heffner, famous Playboy founder, came forward to state he was certainly not the father of Dannielynn – no DNA testing for Heff. But, now the Bahamas court has ruled, and there can be no denying who Dannielynn’s daddy is. All parties can, however, still fight over custody.

Kristy Swanson Tackles Anna Nicole Role
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Prime Time, NBC
Well, it was only a matter of time before a movie of the week about Anna Nicole Smith materialized. Well, we’re not there quite yet, but Law & Order: Criminal Intent will feature a character similar to Anna Nicole, with Kristy Swanson taking on the role. The episode airs May 8th, in one of their “ripped from the headlines” storylines. Here’s the kooky part, David Cross will be playing a Howard K. Stern-type character. I don’t think I’ve ever seen David Cross do anything dramatic, so it may be worth a peek just to see him. I mean, his comedic quirkiness on Mr. Show and Arrested Development have me wondering how he can even play such a straight role. While I never watch Law & Order, this may be just the time to tune in. I’m curious to see how Swanson and Cross pull it off.

Anna Nicole Smith Death Results Kept Secret For Now
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Editorial, Features, Gossip, News
Medical Examiner Joshua Perper, of Broward County, signed Anna Nicole Smith’s cause of death as “pending” on her official death certificate last Wednesday. Yesterday, one week after the certificate was signed, Perper announced that a cause of death has been officially determined. Smith, 39, was found unconscious and unresponsive in her Florida hotel room on February 8, 2007. Hours later, Smith was pronounced dead by medical personnel at the Memorial Regional Hospital. One month later, at least one man finally knows some of the answers to the many questions Anna’s untimely death has raised.
But he isn’t going to tell, at least not yet. In fact, it could take weeks for the cause of death of Anna Nicole Smith to be made public, according to Perper. For now, the Medical Examiner’s office is waiting until the official police investigation is over before those results are released. The Florida police are out in full force investigating the details of the case, but reports say it could still take several more weeks before anything conclusive is determined. Until then, the cause of Anna’s death will remain a mystery to the rest of us.

Anna Nicole Attends Her Last Party
Though the Anna Nicole Smith case still hasn’t been put to rest (nothing about Anna’s estate or her baby daughter has been decided), Anna herself will finally be put to rest Friday, March 2, 2007. The beautiful former model/reality TV star will be buried next to her son in the Bahamas, wearing a custom-made gown for the occasion. The very public funeral will give all those who cared about Anna the chance to mourn, but the event promises some surprises for fans, as well. According to insiders, an “undisclosed singer” will perform at Anna Nicole Smith’s funeral. The song that will be sung has also not been disclosed, nor whether or not this will be a previously unheard musical event. Who will sing? What will they sing? For some reason, Anna always manages to just raise more questions. At least some of the mystery will be solved tomorrow, when Anna is finally put to rest.

Entertainment News Overtaken by Britney’s Bald Head
In my quest to find worthy TV news fit for blogging today, it seems that Britney Spears’ shaving her head is top news. There’s no room for anything else interesting in the entertainment world. Between her and the circus that’s unfolding following Anna Nicole Smith’s death, there’s not much left for us to talk about. Anna Nicole, I can understand. There are so many unanswered questions, including the custody of her baby, that I see why the entertainment media has a lot of ground to cover. A pop star shaving her head and getting a tattoo? I don’t get it. It’s strange, yes. But, is it so newsworthy that the media has to keep covering the story? I would prefer seeing less of her shaved head until they actually have some news about why she did it. Perhaps we’ll never know. Here’s the thing—it will grow back. And when it does, that will be the top entertainment story of the day!

Anna Nicole Smith Dead at Age 39
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: News
Soon after news broke that Anna Nicole Smith had collapsed in a Florida hotel, it was reported that the tabloid favorite had died. Smith, who was born Vickie Lynn Hogan, first became famous for her Guess jeans ads and Playboy centerfold spread. Later, she provided a steady stream of tabloid material when she married an 89-year-old oil tycoon. She remained in the spotlight as the legal battle for his fortune continued. At one point, she had her own reality show on E! and continued to appear in tabloids for her growing waistline. The recent death of her 20-year-old son, birth of her new daughter, and question over the father of her child all contributed a great deal of stress to the bubbly blond. Just days ago, it was announced that Smith would be sued for her role as spokeswoman for the TrimSpa weight-loss supplement. She was found in her hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel this afternoon, and passed away shortly thereafter. The cause of death is under investigation, with an autopsy scheduled for Friday.

Cause of Daniel Smith’s Death Identified
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Reality, News
Anna Nicole Smith’s son, Daniel Smith, died unexpectedly on September 10th—just three days after Anna Nicole gave birth to a baby girl. The cause of death was under investigation, and finally the culprit has been identified as methadone. Toxicology tests revealed that the combination of methadone and antidepressants led to Daniel’s death. The toxicology screening was the second attempt at identifying the cause, this time with a privately hired pathologist. The combination of drugs sped up Smith’s heart, leading to his death. The pathologist did not believe his death was a suicide, rather “a tragic, accidental drug-related death.” Methadone is often prescribed as a painkiller, but is also commonly used to help heroin addicts fight their addiction.
In other Anna Nicole news, her attorney, Howard K. Stern, is claiming to be her newborn’s father. This admission came during his interview with CNN’s Larry King Tuesday night.
