Reality star Anna Nicole Smith is dead

She was a human being - who must have gone though a lot of pain before her death to be on that kind of mix just to feel ok.

have a little bit of respect peeps - so she made a lot of mistakes in her life, but why are people so mad that they feel they have to make her death one big joke?

A young, uneducated, unsophisticated girl was taken advantage of by a world that needs stimulation because of their own boring lives.

Preceded in death by her son. Sad enough in itself.

Leaving behind a baby girl, who will be a pawn in the money-grabbing fiasco to follow. Nobody really cares about her at all.

It's too late to say anything nice about her.

It's never too late, or too early, for the snipers to make derogatory comments about her.

Let her rest in peace, with what little dignity she was able to muster in this life.

exactly,
She must of suffered after her son died, the legal battles with her husband, the parenthood of her daughter..
a life of drugs, sex and... well sex... caught up with her.

Hopefully someone can take the best parts of her mother and raise her child with those values, but indeed... tis a sad day when any bright light is extinguised.

I can't help wondering what Molly Irvins would be saying about all the hubbub over this sad turn of events.

You have to hand it to these Texas women, they sure know how to raise some hell--even in their passing.

This is such a sad story.
She has had such a tragic life and then for our amusement it's been broadcast for much of it.

She has had one heartache after another but people will tend to only focus on her looking and acting stupid most of the time instead of what caused her to be those things in the first place. I personally think that the death of her son did her in. She just didn't perhaps have the stamina to go on. So she self medicated to death to try and deal.

Faux is saying she had been ill with a fever for the past few days. Yesterday they suggested it was a 'rare flu'. They're ramping up the idea that the death was natural. Closed case.

(that's how Faux does it, makes their own conclusion, does the reporting, but still has the speculative notions out there to cloud the issue)

Edit: Now they're suggesting a head trauma by slipping in the bathtub a few days ago.

I can't believe I turned this news channel on but I did learn this:

5 categories for a Medical Examiner to rule the cause of death:

Natural
Accidental
Suicide
Homicide
Undetermined

There is a headline on Yahoo that reads "Why do we care about Anna"...

Excuse me, but me personally didn't give a flying leap about her and still don't.

She's just another 15 minuter who went past her time limit.

She had no talent except for undressing in public, marrying an almost dead billioniare and staying in the media spotlight. Of course that isn't hard, anything to distract the rubes from paying attention.

And her boobs were way too big...anything more than a handful is a waste.

I simply can't believe that this subject has taken up 9 pages of server space.

BTW we all star in reality, our own reality....reality shows however are about as real as all star wrestling.

It's simple. There are no less than half a dozen reasons why she died or somebody wnated her to die. First you have the fact that she was a major drug addict. If you dispute this fact then maybe you are the drug addict. Second, she was worth a whole bunch of dough. PRime reason why somebody may want her dead. Third, could have been suicide. she was going through some major crap with the baby being born..son dying..not knowing who the father is. I have read on this thread that she was soooo young. Bul**** she was 39 years old. A HARD 39. Do you think her bod was in any great shape? No!! She was a playboy bunny for flips sake. She partied it up. Drank it up...drugged it up etc. Unfortunately she was a glorified ho/gold-digger/skeeve. She hit the ultimate pot of gold with her billionaire 90 year old husband. I feel remorse for her baby and that is it. I beleive that baby will be a mess for the rest of it's life due to her shenanigans. I truly beleive that she was either on drugs while being pregnant or that kid was fathered by her son. Either way...it's creepy.

How true, Jolly... very creepy indeed.

I'm creeped out that this happened on the Seminole res that had just bought up the last Hard Rock Cafe and Casino. Something that is a first in monopolies.

I'm creeped out that her dead bazillionaire hubby was an expert professor in trusts and estates.

James Howard Marshall II (January 24, 1905 – August 4, 1995) was a wealthy American oil business executive and university professor. He taught trusts and estates at Yale Law School.

-wiki

Oil, business, Yale, Texas. Sounds like a bushie hornets nest to me. Oh, and the casino connection to Abramoff and Tom Delay, that den of theives.

Now they're saying she may have choked on her vomit.

Throw in the drug accusations... heap bad medicine.

Heap bad medicine indeed.

Sorry if this sounds crass, but frankly, I'm glad she'll be out of the media for good now. I was sick and tired of her, the "it's fun to be a retarded slut" culture she bred among the youth, and the sickening amount of news time given to her petulant outbursts or inappropriate attire. She was an abominal role model for the youth and had no redeeming qualities whatsoever, and her orphan is, frankly, probably better off now. I shudder to think about what that child's life might have been like with a mother like that.

Yeah, her life and situation was messed up, but she chose to mess it up herself.

Cancer is sad. Car accidents are sad.

What she did to her own life was entirely her own choice, and now she can quite literally lay in the bed she made. Good riddance, and here's to hoping the last news about her I'll ever have to hear is about her funeral, and I hope that the youth culture that decided to follow and emulate her have learned from this.

Do you think the old man Marshall went out happy that he had himself a trophy wife, such as she is?

OY6, you know these one-liners cost us points. I use mine judiciously and only because I don't care about pts in the first place. (But someone will get on your case about it, so I thought I'd be first.)

This kinda gets Stern off the hook for having to go all gushy over Valentine's Day. Faux has his spokesman saying that "Anna was his everything".

I'll leave the reader to interpret that.

All mankind is of one author, and is one volume; when one man dies,
one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a
better language; and every chapter must be so translated...
As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon, calls not upon the preacher only
but upon the congregation to come:
so this bell calls us all: but how much more me,
who am brought so near the door by this sickness....

No man is an island, entire of itself...
any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind;
and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
it tolls for thee.
John Donne

Her life tells of the tragedy of fame and fortune
of pain and pleasure

She sure kept us entertained........

Heaven have mercy on her soul
and protect her daughter from the wolves that will hunt her ,her whole life!

CNN reports, and I don't think this is fresh news, that the nurse "waited a while" to get help for her. Her death was convenient for some people.

It's amazing what some people will do for money.

You bet he did. The man probably had more Viagra than blood running through his veins. I would bet he had a big smile. I bet she had a go at him as much as possible just to test his ticker out.

Whatever you think about the woman, this is ATSNN and a civil, respectable discussion is expected.
This is far from the first time a moderator has asked for civility.

Further rudeness and off-topic remarks will not be allowed.

Sorry, DTOM.

Just introducing the notion of 'trophy wife' into the discussion--from the geezer point of view.

She is said to have been seeking to be Famous. And the "Barbie" analogies can't help cross my mind either when I see the films of her modeling, etc.

Sorry OY6, if I got you into trouble here.

I am seriously disappointed in the membership here. I don't think I've ever felt that way before. Bringing in politics ie: Faux News. Was she political? Not by a long shot. Some are even glad she's dead. That's sick man. What did she ever do that was bad enough to warrant that type of post? Let's have some decorum folks.

*goes for a shower*

So the point about her supposedly millions comes back to hunt the littler baby.

like I said before she actually never got the money the court awarded her because is still under dispute by the family.

First she was awarded some 400 and some millions then the family fight reduced the entitlement to 80 something millions and to this day Nichole has not gotten actually anything compare to what she was awarded . . . because the dispute.

So the baby inheritance is not actually a substantial one after all.
