Oh my goodness

That is sad. True she was messed up, either drugs or whatever, but still that is sad. And when I heard about Anna being sued because of the TrimSpa ad, that is just pathetic, she was a spokes person. Pills work for some people and for some they do not. That would be like someone suing Kirstie Alley because they joined Jenny Craig and it didn't work for them, ya know. You sue the company, not the spokesperson.

I guess Anna never got over the loss of her son, I know if something ever hapopened to any of my children, I'd never get over it.

 

[LolitaHaze]

As crazy as she was... I liked her.

 

[Stinchcomb]

That is very sad. This is the first I have heard of it. She had her issues, but she was a true modern Bomb Shell.

She's been a mess since her son died.
A real tragedy that she has a newborn.

 

[scotrace]

Say what you want about her and her choices in life, but it is a very tragic story. This is quite a shock. I can't help but feel that she was chewed up and spit out several times in her life.

Anna Nicole Smith is dead??

How crazy is that? I wasn't a big fan or anything, I just find it weird. Spooky even. I feel horrible for her daughter.

 

[LadyDeWinter]

This is really sad. I felt for her after her son died. For me she was a beautiful women.

 

[MrBern]

Death under investigation. Autopsy on Friday.

Bodyguard performed CPR at hotel.

I wonder how complicated this will become of her Husband /Attourney HowardKSmith is found to not be the biolgical father of the newborn.

I wonder if her weight loss compromised her health....

[Girl Friday]

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I guess TrimSpa sales will plummet, someone said she and the company were being sued for false advertising or something.
Diet pills are bad news.

And the baby girl, have they done the paternity test yet? Too sad.

 

[Elaina]

Ever the conspiracy theorist...

I wonder if the foul play suspected in her son's death had anything to do with hers?

I feel bad for the baby. No matter how messed up ANS was, she was the only mom she has. Very sad.

 

[Brian Sheridan]

I think NASA had her killed to take the heat off of Lisa Nowak.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I guess TrimSpa sales will plummet, someone said she and the company were being sued for false advertising or something.

yes Trimspa & Smith have been named in a class action suit alleging false or misleading advertising.

TrimSpa Issues Statement: We Pray She Is Granted Peace

Today, Anna Nicole Smith’s grief stricken and tumultuous personal life came to an end. Anna came to our Company as a customer, but she departs it as a friend. While life for Anna Nicole was not easy these past few months, she held dear her husband, Howard K. Stern, her daughter, Dannielynn Hope, her most cherished friends, beloved dogs, and finally, her work with TRIMSPA.

Anna knew both the joy of giving life, and the heartache of losing a child. We pray that she is granted the peace that eluded her more recent days on earth, and that she find comfort in the presence of her son, Daniel.

- Alex Goen, CEO and Founder, TRIMSPA

And the baby girl, have they done the paternity test yet? Too sad.

Actually it was reported earlier todaythat she has been ordered to test th baby's DNA.
Earlier requests to test th baby had been blocked.

its also reported that she had tried to name a real estate mogul as the babydaddy. But that paternity was doubtful.

Golly, this is really sad. I was never a fan of hers. But, she has had a rough few months between the death of her son and the paternity suit.
Curiosity does get the better of me, and I do want to know what happened to her. The first thing I thought was that she died from dieting.
Of coursed TrimSpa is gonna release a statement like that, they need an immediate course of action to cover their butts. Especially if it is found that she passed away from something to do with their product.
I also feel badly for her daughter. Now, not only has she lost her only mother, but the paternity suit is going to be big news again. I hope that one day soon she will have a warm, loving and stable home, finally.

My thoughts exactly. It annoys me that celebrities like Ms Smith are used as easy fodder by the media whenever the chaos of their personal lives spills into the public forum, and held up for public ridicule. It's obvious that they need help, not derisive laughter. Of course, it can be argued that the public must want to see such spectacles and the media is only responding to that, but why add more fuel to the fire? Naturally, I'm expecting too much to think the world at large might have a better motive.

Referred to as 'blond and voluptuous' here, she was likened to Marilyn Monroe. How awful that she met a similar tragic fate.

 

[Brian Sheridan]

It's nice to be sympathetic but save it for the people who don't have any choices in the suffering they endure. No one made her be a gold-digging fame hound. I do feel sorry for her children but she knew what she was doing. She did anything she could to be rich and famous. The media is not to blame.

If there is co-conspirator in this, it is all of us who read "US Weekly" and "People" and watch these shows that celebrate people who are famous for just being famous. Anna Nicole worked the system to get what she wanted.

Why we mourn her with endless news stories while today in Iraq, 4 more Americans died, and its treated as business as usual, is really what puzzles me.
