Anna Nicole Smith found in hotel room unresponsive
 

Just saw a news blurb that said Anna Nicole Smith was found unconscious & unresponsive in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Hotel in Florida. Has anyone else seen or heard about this story?

Anna Nicole Smith Collapses at the Hollywoood Florida Hard Rock Hotel
 

Breaking News:

Anna Nicole Smith just collapsed (less than an hour ago) at the same hotel that Stevie performed at a couple nights ago. It is all over the news! I don't know why I find it so exciting that it is the same hotel that Stevie was just at... maybe Anna was at the show? Maybe she collapsed because she hates the setlist too?

i haven't heard anything but with everything coming out in the tabloids over the past 48 hours, i wouldn't be surprised if she tried to kill herself.

Do tell.

I loved the 1st season of her show.

Holy ****. I hope she's all right. I hope unresponsive doesn't mean dead.:distress:

Well...
 

the news just updated that Anna Nicole Smith collapsed at 2PM EST at the Hard Rock Hotel and was rushed to a hospital in Hollywood, FL.

According to this news report CPR was attempted and the hospital staff have stuck a tube down her throat to provide air (aka intubated)...Doesnt look too good for ANS.

EDIT: CNN is reporting the exact thing I just typed.

The hospital will have a press conference within a half-hour, word is already out that she has passed away. I feel very sad right now. I'm not even a fan, just feel like it's all too much.

What the hell, didn't she just have a baby?

According to the news, it doesn't look that good for her. Very sad if she did try to kill herself.

CNN is confirming that she is dead. :(

Yes, but lost the son....probably more than she could bear.

:eek: Whoa. I'm not a fan, but I find this whole story very sad and tragic...:distress:

She passed away. Very sad.

msnbc is reporting she's dead.

That's what...
 

other 'fair & mentally unbalanced" outlets are also reporting.

so what have the tabloids been saying over the last 2 days?

and.. it is sad, indeed.

Oh dear god.:( :distress: This is a tragedy. I guess Birkhead will finally get custody of that poor baby. This just makes me want to cry. My heart also goes out to Howard K. Stern no matter what everyone thinks of him.

Oh my god. Oddly I'm shocked. I also haven't kept up with what the tabloids have been saying over the past couple of days?

That poor baby. :distress:

There's a little more here:

Ya, I'm not a big fan or anything, it's just shocking and a terrible trajedy. I wonder what will come of that baby.

Anna Nicole: The New Witnesses

Our ANNA NICOLE SMITH investigation takes a whole new turn on tonight's "Insider," as we talk to the two men who say they were witnesses to the events following the death of Anna's 20-year-old son, DANIEL.

BEN THOMPSON and his son-in-law, FORD SHELLY, who claim they bought the home in the Bahamas that Anna was living in at the time of Daniel's passing, say they were at the hospital soon after a deadly mix of Zoloft, Lexapro and methadone killed Daniel just three days after the birth of Anna's daughter, DANNIELYNN.

The fact that methadone was found in Daniel's body has been the source of much speculation, with tabloids even making accusations linking Anna's partner, HOWARD K. STERN, to the drug. A claim that Howard vehemently denies.

"I never gave it to him," insists Howard. "I would have never hurt Daniel. I loved Daniel. He was my family."

With regard to the methadone, "The Insider" asks Thompson and Ford: "With your own eyes, did you see Howard flush or dispose of pills or methadone down the toilet?"

"No, I was not there at that time, or maybe I was in another room, but I wasn't privy to any of that," says Thompson.

"But you need to know one thing," Ford points out. "I heard the toilet flush and the pills didn't come back."

Thompson also opens up about having, what he calls, a "short, romantic relationship" with Anna that eventually led to "a genuine friendship."

"It was very short-lived, a month maybe, but you've got to understand, she lived in California, I lived here," recalls Thompson. "We were more friends than anything I would say."

And it was that friendship that he claims Anna turned to just prior to giving birth to Dannielynn.

"Anna wanted to put my name on the birth certificate as the father," says Thompson. "I never commited to her, but I sort of went along with her to appease her. But when the baby came and finally she had to put a father on the birth certificate, I told her I would not do it. I knew it was a lie, I knew I was not the father and I did not want to go on record that I was."

And while Anna insists Howard is the father, photographer LARRY BIRKHEAD has maintained that he too had a relationship with Anna, and that Dannielynn is his.

It was announced Wednesday that a California judge has set a new date -- February 21, 2007 -- for Anna to complete a DNA test to determine the paternity of the child.

Do they even know who the real father is yet?

Not yet. :(

:eek: :eek:

Now that's just sad. I didn't particularly care for her, but she's been through so much that I wouldn't wish upon anyone.

Damn. :(

:shocked: :shocked:

Wow this is so terrible :distress: I'm shocked but not shocked. She was on alot of drugs man (she could barely speak last nite on ET). It was either an accidental drug over dose or suicide. Not looken too good for that Stern dude.

not at all. i'm talking about him right now with a friend -- he was the biggest enabler in her life, sadly.

:distress: :distress:

Poor thing... :distress:

No, she was never a major movie star, but in a way she was like our generation's Marilyn Monroe, which makes her premature death so eerie. :eek:

:shocked: :distress:

Why would that be?

"TMZ.com had reported that Smith collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and was rushed to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood just after 2 p.m. ET."

Wasn't that where Stevie was this past few days? Freaky.

There are mixed reports. Some are saying she was found in her room.....some are saying she went unresponsive in the casino. :shrug:

^^^ Anna has been living in the Bahamas recently, so it's no surprise that she'd be in FL regularly.

This is VERY sad and tragic, indeed. The whole Marilyn Monroe thing freaks me out...

"Collapsed" and "found unresponsive." I assume that means there were indications that she fell down first and then passed out? As opposed to being found unresponsive in bed?

Just what gardenstategirl said, he was an enabler. I think he gave Daniel his drugs and Nicole's. I'm sure he will be investigated. and I don't think he's the father of Dannylyn either. He's a lawyer, I don't trust him.

Yeah, the Hard Rock Live is right there on the casino grounds. That's where the concert was Tuesday night. I can see the hotel here from my office downtown FtL.

See what stale setlists do to people?!

All joking aside, this is horrible. I hope that Danielynn will be looked after and given the best care. Be it from Larry Birkhead or Howard. The last 15 years have been nothing but tragedy for Anna. Rest in peace, may she stay beautiful forever.

Just what are you implying, Vanessa? :cool:

OMG she died! I am stunned! It is all over the news...

Want to get REAL sick? Start searching Ebay for Anna stuff and see what the vultures are doing. :eek:
