Anna Nicole Smith dead

[crofter]

She seemed to spring up out of nowhere and unfortunately when she started losing her looks and her luck turned badly against her it seemed only natural that she would turn to something to "soothe" the pain, seems she has left just as quickly and surpisingly as she entered.
Yeah RIP Anna - sometimes fame and good looks aint what it is cracked out to be!!

She did in fact win the most recent round of the court battle over her late husband's estate - it is only right and proper that she should have done.

Even better for her was the death last year of her litigious adversary, the old boy's evil son, who had been trying to ensure that his stepmother did not receive a cent.

She would have likely received the full inheritance due to her in a matter of months.

Very sad news, I have just read somewhere how she always wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe, and now her death seems to mirror that a little.

I just hope the child goes to her rightful father and can be kept out of the limelight as much as possible (although very doubtful I am sure).

RIP

If that is tru Steve - doesn't it seem a little strange that all inheritors are steadily dying off? The man's son, ANS and of course to throw the scent a little, her own son who potentially could have inheritted it all after this?

I know ive seen too much Columbo, but its a little odd no?

Who does the money go to now then

My thoughts and prayers go to the kids.

However,

I'll take the Bill Hicks viewpoint on this one. The world has got a bit lighter; one less moron.

I did not like the whole sleep-your-way-to-billions exploitation of a sad little old man, he had a heart attack about a year down the line- was he ridden to a happy exit? Was the fact he popped his clogs so soon, and thus entitling ANS to this money a coincidence?

Sorry.

But, at 39?

RIP Anna.

I have to vigorously disagree with you ther Steve R. Lets just see it for what it is. She was a gold digger. She struck gold and she finally won a part of the old mans estate by default being married to him.

Sorry the whole thing was unashamedly calculating from start to finish. Man, you gotta love capitalism! Dont let the pretty face, big butt and good looks fool you otherwise.

Still its not something I wished ill of her but your siding with her is proof that most men get dumbstruck by good looks and how sirens like her are the cause of most mens destruction.

Thing is right is right. His family should have come first and the fact he put a brassy blond before them was an insult to them.

That little rant aside I dont think ill of her because I personally dont care for people I do not know. Her world is far away from mine. I'm too busy caring about the ones I do know in the here and now.

The fight has already begun between the competing fathers, Shopgirl.

Awful to say, but sometimes there's an inevitability about these things. After the death of her son, it just doesn't seem to be a surprise that ANS has gone.
