The news is everywhere, but Anna Nicole Smith died today after collapsing at The Hard Rock Hotel in Seminole Florida. Cause of death is unknown. The autopsy will be performed tomorrow (2/9).
Anna Nicole Smith was one of those celebrities that you couldn't help but watch or be intrigued with her latest escapade, but at the same time would never admit out loud that you "cared" about any news related to her. "Phew! Anna Nicole. I could care less about that train wreck...{you turn away, yet your head peeks back} But, come again, what nonsense is she up to now?"
One thing I did admire about Anna Nicole's career was that she was the first Guess girl who really made voluptuous sexy in all those skinny obsessed fashion rags. Although, skinny back in the 80's was a size 6 compared to today's size 2. Remember those Guess ads? Everyone talked about how cool it was to have this "larger" model in a very high-profile ad campaign. Back then, being a Guess girl was a HUGE deal. Anna was very beguiling in the early days of her career.
The person I feel most concerned about his her 5-month old daughter, Dannie Lynn Hope. This little girl has already lost a brother and mother, and who her real father is, is being fought in court. When I saw the news of Anna Nicole's death, my first thought was of her daughter, and I honestly felt incredibly saddened.
Despite all of Anna's craziness, she was just another human trying to get on in the world. The end of her life was quite tumultuous, but may she rest in peace. As much as she loved media attention, Anna Nicole Smith surely did leave this Earth with a dramatic ending.
