Who killed Anna Nicole?

Curiosity killed the catty Anna Nicole Smith. Beset by the press and choked by four legal fights, the latest concerns her TrimSpa endorsement and what she really had to do to shed an ironic number of pounds — 69, the bubbly Texas bred supermodel collapsed earlier today, as if to say “enough!” She wasn’t a good actor, so playing dead was out of the question.

Death plagued Anna Nicole Smith. Her second husband, J. Howard Marshall II died in 1995, after only a year of matrimonial bliss. But boy did Smith pull out all the stops to secure inheritance; she pulled out an impressive enhanced pair at her geriatric hubby’s deathbed. Perhaps her bosom is to blame for Marshall’s death, but hey, he paid for ‘em; shouldn’t he get one last look?

The court announced another chapter in the former family inheritance feud (Smith’s share dwindled from $474 million to nothing) giving her another shot at the fortune. A month later, Anna Nicole’s ex- stepson E. Pierce Marshall died. Strange and sudden, with scant details of a mysterious infection leaked to the press, Marshall’s June 2006 demise is cause for pause. Foul play afoot? Not so far.

Smith’s only son Daniel Smith, from her first marriage, abruptly dropped dead last September, while visiting mom and new born step sister (whose paternity is still a mystery, but Friday she’ll be tested and thanks to the internet, we’ll see results instantly). Suspicious as the 20 yea-old’s death was, a trio of anti-depressants killed Daniel Smith. But who induced the overdose? Would the third man in the hospital room, Anna Nicole’s lawyer and boyfriend, Howard K. Stern have reason to kill Daniel Smith? Something about Stern’s lifestyle scares ex-boyfriend and paternity candidate Larry Birkhead. He and lawyer Debra Opri fear for the child’s life:

"Larry Birkhead is the father and he wants his child," she told FOX News. "He doesn’t want another death.”

Love her or hate her, 2006 proved a nightmare year for Anna Nicole Smith. A deadly combination of fast living, legal clashes, a rash of odd deaths, the TrimSpa scandal (and maybe the lengths she went to for weight loss), and controversy over her biological baby’s daddy destroyed her.

And just as the last pictures of Daniel Smith fetched his mother $650K, final footage of Anna Nicole Smith has media companies rabid over the rights. Her E! reality show DVDs will be hot ticket items and expect to see prices for the March 1992, June 1993, February 1994 and February 2001 Playboys, starring, you guessed it — Anna Nicole — skyrocket.
