SIGH... maye she cracked under the pressure of the paparazzi.
How much do you want to bet it was a drug OD of some sort? Pain killers w/ too much dieting...that woman has been through a lot. Was looking like she'd got her life turned around, so sad...

No kidding, a baby daughter....
When she's older she's going to unfold the life of her mother and just get bad news after bad news.
Could you imagine it that Trimspa stuff has long term effects? Could be an OD though... we'll see I guess.
Here's a link to a story... not too many details yet:

Daayda, is it that hard to do a bloody google search?!
Could you imagine it that Trimspa stuff has long term effects?...
Well, it can't be healthy to yo-yo back and forth for so many years...and if you already have a serious amount of heart trouble that runs in your family, you've got to be careful of everything...and not just jump on a fad diet...
I didn't realize her daughter was still that young....

daayda3, Anna Nicole wasnt her given name. She was a "plus" size model who became famous for being the Guess jeans postergirl, went on to playboy and the like, became more famous for marrying an 80 something year old oil tycoon.Became known to the world for her recreational binging and airheadedness from her reality tv show.

That poor 5 month old little girl. :(

hmmm, hate to break your little sadness circle, but I really do think there are more pressing issues we need to be worrying about. How many children died in Africa from AIDS today? How many species were pushed even closer to extinction by poachers today? How many acres of rainforest were lost in Brazil today? You know why? Cause it's easier then facing the real issues.

How about you give us a daily update on that info? I'd be willing to give it a read.

Sounds like you have a few threads to start then eh aussie? Actually, whenever one of these less "pressing" issues develops and the general public decides to talk about it, there's always someone who's going to bring up more important global issues.
The fact is, those global issues have been around for quite sometime, and there is a growing awareness about them. There are organizations that the concerned can donate to, in order to help out. AIDS in Africa? Bought some preducted (red) stuff for christmas.
This Anna Nicole thing? Just happened, so it's being talked about now. Had the greenhouse effect just been discovered, you can bet this thread would have a different title. Thanks for the imput though.

I have compassion for her. That's why I am talking about it. It's not that I have any less feelings about AIDS or the people dying of starvation or malaria. I donate when I can. I don't poach, nor do I support those who do. I have belonged to several conservation societies. I recycle. I don't litter. I do what I can with what I have.
She might have been a rich woman, but she was human and doing what she could with her messed up life...and just that deserves a moment of silence in my book.

I had thought she seemed to really be getting things back together, just now. I'm really surprised, she's pretty young. I thought her most recent photos were her best looking ones, more mature/elegant. It is a shame, this little girl won't grow up with her mother.
To some extent, this is tragic because she seemed young and mostly healthy - when this happens, it sort of makes us think about our own situations, our mothers/aunts/older sisters, etc. Just because she was better known doesn't make her family or the situation any less deserving of compassion, in my opinion.

We all know whats going okay, but Anna Nicole Smith is apart of American culture (sad as it is.) And we do care about the children dying and the animals being poached. Well, I do anyways, but it doesn't mean we can't be upset about someone who died.
You let me know all the kid's names and I'll post bullitiens for them too.

Did the kids in Africa with AIDS ever marry someone to get money? No. Did they ever say anything famous like
Like my body?... I was honored to be on our.. next performer's new video... And if I ever record an album.. I want this guy to produce m-mine.. and make me beautiful duets.. 'cause he's freakin' genius!... Make some noise for my boy! Kanye West!
No, they've done none of these simple things to better themselves. So until then, I fell bad for Anna's kid, that's about it...Well, I guess maybe they have reason to believe otherwise..."Marrying into money was not a good thing for me."...

BWAHAHA! MSNBC had her death as the lead for a minute, and a smaller article lower on the same page about a class action lawsuit brought against her for diet company advertising fraud. Sorry, I'm just not really caring. As for the little girl... Well I'm sure she'll get raised by someone, and hopefully not someone who likes to show up on national tv stoned.
Sheeze, ok, a celeb died. Yah, rough life. Must be difficult whining from your million dollar mansion. Very sad for the kid, very sad about the other kid. But with this much badly chosen lifestyle, craven persuit of attention and money, and total lack of wit or class.... Eh, I just can't shed a tear...

I never really had any respect for her, but I feel bad for how her life turned out. She wasn't very smart, and she had addictive problems, but that doesn't make her a horrible person. Just someone who makes bad decisions. I do feel bad for her daughter.

I firmly believe that this women was used. Yes she had money and yes she had many, many personal problems but I sense that she was chewed up and spit out by the "entertainment industry" and the public in general. I could just sense it.. this woman lived in sadness. Her more recent time was full of pain and heartache, and that makes it that much clearer to see why she might have taken her own life (which I'm almost sure of).
She is in a place now where judgements are never made, tears are never shed, and despair unheard of. I am positive that whatever pain, despair, and heartache she felt during her final moments have been replaced with love, laughter, and content. She is home now. Let that be enough.

The press is calling her another Marilyn Monroe...
Autopsy Dr. said in his press release there were no pills found in her or her room, illegal or otherwise. Said they should have a more substantial cause of death when certain tests come back in 3-4 weeks.

Lavaleggs is kinda right. It's messed up to laugh when someone dies, no matter who it is, or how much we hate them.
And sure, Anna Nicole was a ditzy blonde and not alot of people liked her, but have atleas SOME respect for the poor woman. She had a really messed up life, which may have been her fault, but come on.

The only thing I have to say is Big Whoop. How does this affect any of us? The only reason that their's even any coverage about this petty ordeal is the fact that she is good looking. I bet any of you a Million dollars, (yes I mean a million dollars) that there are many cases like this that occur worldwide that never get one mention. God dang it... this celebrity crud really gets on my nerves. I am sorry if anyone finds what I say offensive but I quite frankly get sick of being barraged by this stuff. You know? It's just to much for me.

I can see what you mean, but I think most people on here aren't caring because she's a celebrity, I think we care because we are in general compassionate people and feel sorry for her hardships. The only reason we know more about her than just some average lady is the press/media...it's just that the average "Jane Doe" doesn't get press coverage the same way a famous person does. If the story was brought up on a news channel about a random "Jane Doe" who was an ex-painkiller addict, lost her son who helped her through rehab, was leaving a 5 month old daughter in a custody battle, was in a career she loved, and died mysteriously just as she was getting her life in order, we'd feel just as sorry for her and wish her peace wherever she is...

I think it is a sad thing, and its right to be upset. I noticed how some of you people are saying who cares cause there are so many people who die every day. If they got huge publicity about it would you not be sad about that? Just becasue she was famous isnt a reason to not be sad. You should take the same amount of consideration for her family as you would if you heard about someone else dieing, and react the same way for people who are not famous

Oh, maybe the fact that she's FAMOUS....it's news. Unfortunately, Jane Doe, John Doe, Jerry Doe, Frank Doe, and Henrietta Doe die everyday and plenty of people care.... the media is just reporting her death, not asking anyone to care. Maybe you could contact your local cable company and get a show on local access where someone sits and reads the obituaries of all the non-famous folks who've died and were snubbed by the mainstream media.

That's not my point. The point is that the media is too obsessive and goes into people's personal lives to much. I also think that there are things more worthy of getting attention than Anna's death. I think that if the media would stop sticking it's fingers in everyone pie it would save a lot of grief.
But according to the media, if they stayed away, there wouldn't be any news. And it's not just celebrities...look at the guy who saved the man in the NY subway...do you think he did it just be on camera and to be invited to the State of the Union address? No, he did it to save a man's life and the media jumped on it like the pirhana they are...he was big news, someone famous dying is big news, someone getting eloped is big news. That guy didn't choose to be a media darlin', it was pushed on him.
Unfortunately neither you nor I can put any amount of influence on the media, and neither can celebrities. Look at how many lawsuits against the paparazzi there are each year by famous people just seeking a little privacy...it's ridiculous.
