OT: Anna Nicole Smith pronounced dead

[NealIsGod]

I've seen her smashed so much on TV that when I saw this the title of this thread I thought that she was being interviewed on TV and actually pronounced the word "DEAD" correctly. I'm sorry - bad joke.

You fit right in here.

A lot of men run from the responsibility of having children but this woman has 3 men fighting over paternity. What's up with that? Let this be a lesson to all women of child bearing age--don't have sex with more than one man unless you have tons of $$.

[Barb]

On the Stern show this morning they were saying there is a rumor that her son who died is the father and that is why he killed himself. Now wouldn't that be a sick twist!

Wouldn't the kid have come out with three eyes, or the name froy, or some other deformity if that were true?

Some people just aren't meant to have money. How trashy can this get? Needs to be on Jerry Springer.

Ewwwww-www. If they were both using methadone then maybe it is used for something different than heroin addiction? Her fridge was stocked with slimfast and methadone. I think TrimSpa will go down in all of this too because she obviously had her stomach stapled to lose that much weight and this was her diet. Then she sold her weight loss success to them, its done all the time.
Then she probably recently had more plastic surgery and was fighting infection. Okay, that's my theory.

[Cheri]

Could have been a lethal combination related to the post partum hormonal change reacting with the TrimSpa, methadone, and a nice STD from one of the many men she's slept with recently. A shot of penicillin would have saved her life.

Sounds like an episode of House, MD.

She did have some surgery recently. It has been reported that it left her with "aches and pains". Due to her past use/abuse of pain meds, she has a tolerance for many of them. She probably had to take a lot to get any relief from pain. If that's true, an OD would not be unreasonable.

As for the idea that her son was the father - GROSS!!!

Hehe....I dunno, If I had ANS as a mom...I might give it a go...

[Cheri]

I was talking to my sister about ANS and she pointed out that ANS was not as stupid as we all believed. She actually quite intelligent. She had not one rich man fall in love with her but several. She had men giving her houses in the Bahamas; Leaving million dollar fortunes; has a prince, a lawyer and who knows who else fighting over the paternity of her child. This woman was pure genius!

My sister also pointed out that even if she had lipo or other plastic surgery she wouldn't have been as tone as she was. Not even Trimspa (BABY) could have taken the flab off without her working damned hard to look the way she did.
Just thought I would share with you my new found respect for her.

Yea, a pure genius at the oldest profession in the world...
Kinda makes me think of Ol' Babbs in that movie "Nuts"

Have you ever heard of meth, speed ,glass, G, ephedra---sorry have to disagree with your sisters comment---she (AN)was a pharmaceutical nightmare.

A couple of people who knew her referred to her as "dumb like a fox". They said she had a lot of street smarts and put on an act some of the time. I don't doubt, however, that some of her antics involved her being high, drunk, both, whatever.

[LucyFurr]

You cant live that lifestyle and expect to live long. She was a morally bankrupt individual, probably took too many pills by accident, and her heart gave out. That baby will be wealthy if the father takes good care of her. I'm hoping the real father is the blond guy. Hes not a sleaze and maybe really cared.

That right there shows how much morals you have. You think that the baby being wealthy is the most important thing!?
She had a rough life and I dont think you can blame her for all the things (good or bad) that happend to her.
I just think that she finally gets the rest and peace of mind that she truely needs and deserves.

actually, my morals are intact thank you very much. Did you read that statement? I never mentioned money. I was talking MORALLY. In my world, your only wealthy if you are a good person. Money comes and goes sweetie. Its just a thing. Open your mind a little and dont get so offended. That baby is innocent and deserves a responsible parent and the right of inheritance. Anna Nicole made her bed, she lies in it now. Same as you, me, and everyone else here. The child is the innocent party and is subject to how the father raises her and I doubt it will be in the media.

Did anyone else catch Larry King last night? not so sure about Howard anymore, looks like he manipulated Anna alot or else gave into her every whim and that isn't what she needed. She needed a minder that would make sure she stayed the course. Waiting back to hear from our resident "Rx expert" on this board about methadone, but looks like ANS may have been using it for Hepatitis? which would explain why her skin always looked so yellow. I still think she was beautiful and sweet.

That Stern was a gold digger from the start and I think it will come out he is gay and he made up the lovers part...but she went along for the ride, because she was so drugged out all the time, first he got the son out of the way, next the mother then whats next...the baby, Stern might implode soon, first!! But now there are 5 daddys and counting!! Now that really is a first!

Heres a little info that might help everyone get an idea about ANS's situation Hep C is often contracted by IV drug use( shooting up heroin would be one possibility--there are other drugs that could cause the same outcome) methadone is synthetic (man made) Heroin, it is used mainly to detox heroin addicts but it also is used to detox opiate addiction.(percocets, oxycontin, ms contin) Methadone works almost exactly like heroin except patients do not get high from this drug ,which allows for a safe withdrawal with a decrease in withdrawal symptoms.

Methadone is not used for treatment of hepatitis C. Inteferon is used in the treatment of hepatitis C but has very limited results and many side effects. Jaundiced skin(yellow skin can be a sign of hepC and or liver damage).

ANS did show to have jaundiced skin which could very well mean she had Hep C ,which also could mean she was using iv heroin at some time This would easily explain the severe weight loss that happened over a short period of time(Not trimspa-i'm sure that stuff is crap).She was constantly altered when she was on the tv,it is very common for heroin users to be polysubstance users,i would venture a guess that this was the case.

Just an aside, they may never tell the full truth of what she took , lets say we do a drug screen on ANS and say she is taking both heroin and methadone the lab result will just indicate- positive for opiates(it wont be specific to each).Unless they look for track marks, they may just see the bottle of methadone and figure she used that only,(just to give you an idea about track marks, i knew a heroin user that shot up in a vein in her vagina so that no one would know---if they really dont want you to know they will do their best to hide it)

[Cheri]

I know methadone is also being used more now for pain relief for people who have built up a tolerance but is being investigated because of a lot of deaths. A girl I went to high school with was taking methadone for migraines and died (not from an overdose).

Anna Nicole Smith needed a friend. Period. Everyone else around her enjoyed her celebrity or what they could get out of her and of course would bow down to whatever she demanded. A true friend would never have done that.

It was also very apparent that she absolutely loved and adored her son. ET interviewed John Travolta and told him about a photo ANS had framed in her home in the Bahamas of her and John. He mentioned that when they filmed a recent movie together, all she ever spoke of was her son. So much so, that he said it truly touched him. I'm glad someone finally came out and said something kind about her...regardless of whatever demons she may have been chasing.

I read an article soon after her son Daniel had passed that mentioned how intelligent he actually was. He was in honors classes and doing very well. No doubt that part of Anna Nicole Smith's soul had died along with her son. I also saw the interview that one of her ex-boyfriends described her as "dumb as a fox". She knew when to 'act' dumb to benefit herself; no doubt she had the intelligence to get what she wanted also.

I'm sad that she couldn't have been strong enough to live to raise that beautiful daughter of hers. Hopefully she is finally at peace and the current circus will end.

Peace~

I think you're right. I've seen and heard some things that have really made me feel deeply sorry for Anna Nicole. I think she just could not get over the death of her son and was over indulging in drink and drugs to stop hurting.

Great post Liz.

Agreed Liz, where the heck were all her friends and family to rally around her after her son died? Very tragic that either she didn't have any or that that creepy lawyer kept them away.

Ouch, in the vagina!!!! heroin must be really good. Yuck, anyway..thank you for the info. , its so sad. They are reporting now she was in Rehab. during her pregnancy. I hope Larry gets the baby, but not Larry from Lubbock.

[Barb]

TMZ is reporting some pretty interesting stuff today on Anna...

http://www.tmz.com/

Her live in nanny filed an affidavit in December claiming that Anna insisted she underfeed the baby so that she would be sexy and tried to kill herself a couple of times. There's also some info. on illegal drugs she was getting.

Holy Smokes-----------------That is just too much information----------

So, by this coming Sunday, what will there
be more of:

Men claiming to be the father of this child
or the number of NASCAR crew chiefs suspended
for the Daytona race?

Dumb as a fox is right. Now granted, this clip is by no means proof positive of her genius, it does show that she was capable of getting into character and acting.
