BREAKING NEWS: Anna Nicole Smith Pronounced Dead At Florida Hospital

[Eggy]

Anna Nicole Smith, the former Playboy playmate whose bizarre life careened from marrying an octogenarian billionaire to the untimely death of her son, died Thursday after collapsing at a South Florida hotel, one of her lawyers said.

Smith, 39, collapsed and was unresponsive while staying at the Seminole Hard Rock Cafe Hotel and Casino, said the attorney, Ron Rale. She was rushed to a hospital.

"She checked in Monday at 8 p.m. as a guest. She was due to check out tomorrow," said Danielle Giordaano, a spokeswoman for the hotel.

Smith had been a tabloid staple even before she became Playboy's playmate of the year in 1993. Readers were fascinated by her bombshell good looks, her marriage to an elderly billionaire and subsequent court fight over his estate, her weight fluctuations, and last year, the sudden death of her 20-year-old son, Daniel Smith.

Damn.

I read the report on MSN and heres the actual post, for those who are intrested.

We still can't believe Anna Nicole Smith is dead. The 39-year-old model/actress/bon vivant collapsed at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, California. She was found by a personal nurse she had on her staff. A bodyguard from her entourage unsuccessfully tried to revive her with CPR. She was pronounced dead when she arrived at Memorial Regional Hospital.

Before her death, a lawyer for Anna, Ron Rale, told People, "She hasn't been well the past few days, she's had cold and flu symptoms." She also wasn't dealing well with her legal headaches. On her date of death, Thursday, February 8, a court set a deadline for Anna to submit to a paternity test. There were some questions about whether her 5-month-old daughter Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern was fathered by her lawyer and longtime companion, Howard K. Stern, or by photographer Larry Birkhead.

Of all the business that has to be dealt with in the wake of Anna Nicole Smith's death, let's hope they hurry up and decide where her 5-month-old baby daughter is going to live before she crawls off on her own and becomes the next Amelia Earhart. The baby girl is currently being taken care of in the Bahamas by the mother of a friend of Anna Nicole's. A court is going to decide on Friday, February 9, who gets short-term custody of Dannielynn. That's not the only thing on the to-do list for those involved with all things Anna. An autopsy will be held on Friday, though results could take up to two weeks. Larry's legal team is also moving to take DNA samples from Anna on Friday so a paternity test can be conducted at a later time.

Anna Nicole Smith was born Vickie Lynn Hogan in Houston, Texas, on November 28, 1967. She was christened "Anna Nicole" by Guess jeans after they plucked her from the pages of Playboy and hired her to model. Her legacy is less than noble. She started off her career as a stripper, where she met her future husband, billionaire Howard J. Marshall, who was 89 when she married him. Playboy gave her fame and Guess gave her some legitimacy. But after her husband died, she focused more on battling the courts to wrestle away his fortune than she did on her fledgling acting career, which seemed to have some potential in her early role in Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult.

By the time her reality series, The Anna Nicole Show, debuted in 2002, she was a baby-talking airhead who'd lost her figure and, it often seemed, her link to the real world. But though she barked orders and threw tantrums like she was expecting a Super Sweet Sixteen, she also showed herself to be a magnetic personality.

Anna was always a punchline, and her show underscored this. "I think you're great, but I think you're being exploited," a fan of the show told Anna on one episode. "Oh ya!" she laughed. "Well... I don't mind. As long as I get paid for it." It often seemed there was nothing she wouldn't do for money, even lending her likeness to a column in the National Enquirer, which had so mercilessly tracked her relationship with her older husband. But self-preservation and providing for her family always seemed to be Anna's top motive, followed closely by having the best time possible. We liked her a lot.
