After nearly 20 years of litigation—that went all the way up to the Supreme Court—a federal judge has ruled that Anna Nicole Smith's estate will not get a single red penny of her late husband's billions.
In this vintage clip, a young feminist audience member of Donahue tries to confront Playboy's Playmate of the Year Anna Nicole Smith about the exploitation of women, and during Smith's answer, somebody on stage farts—really loudly—and everyone starts laughing.
Anna Nicole is a cheap, trashy, melodramatic Lifetime original movie that's at times so absurd you can't help but laugh—which perfectly evinces the campy essence of Anna Nicole Smith. Telling the late model's story through tone is genius and director Mary Harron is on to some next-level biopic shit.
Lifetime—the network that has an inherent, unmatched understanding of modern camp—is releasing The Anna Nicole Story as its next original movie, directed by feminist filmmaker Mary Harron, and starring Agnus Bruckner as Anna Nicole Smith, Adam Goldberg as Howard K. Stern, Virginia Madsen as Virgie Arthur, and Martin…
One weird thing about celebrity (and there are several) is that there's this underlying notion that fame is only for those who truly deserve it, as though it's some kind of honorable reward we bestow upon people for talent. But prestige and fame are two different animals, which has only become more and more clear in…
The latest development in the seemingly never-ending legal battle between the Anna Nicole Smith estate and the late J. Howard Marshall's son E. Pierce Marshall may see 6-year-old Dannielynn Birkhead, the daughter of Larry Birkhead and Anna Nicole, $49 million of the elder Marshall's fortune, estimated to be anywhere…
Noted half-man Angus T. Jones, who has starred on CBS's Two and a Half Men for the past nine years, appeared in a YouTube video today in which he called the show "filth" and ordered the pious masses to stop watching or risk their immortal souls, because the scripts are literally farted out by the Devil. OH MY GOD,…
Here are graphic photos of Kourtney Kardashian birthing her new child Penelope Scotland Disick, which are screenshots of the televised delivery from the season finale of Keeping Up With The Kardashians yesterday. And all of the Kardashians were there (even brother Rob), and you were there, and you were there, and …
Perhaps Anna Nicole Smith's legacy is that she somehow managed to establish any kind of legacy at all. She plowed her way onto our pop cultural landscape in 1992, took up permanent residency, amazingly remained relevant for the next 15 years, and died of a drug overdose in 2007. As a young single mother working at a…
The Supreme Court ruled against Anna Nicole Smith, posthumously, in a case that concerned the jurisdictions of the various courts entangled in the dispute over J. Howard Marshall's $1.6 billion estate. Clearly, Chief Justice John Roberts didn't think the lurid backstory was enough, so he turned to literature to open…
Anna Nicole Smith was the consummate woman, if that means only the most torturous and futile elements of being female. And her quest to fit the most extreme version of the beauty ideal not only didn't make her happy — it essentially killed her.
Yes, it's ironic that Anna Nicole Smith's tawdry life is being played out at the Royal Opera in Covent Garden. But it's downright poetic that it's apparently a critical hit. In death, the buxom blonde has finally been able to achieve something that she never quite could in life: She's being taken seriously. And by …
Today, a judge dismissed the felony conspiracy charges against Smith's doctor and Howard K. Stern, saying of Stern, "a layperson [doesn't] knows it's illegal to write a prescription in another name." Really? Even if that person is a lawyer?
Skeevy boyfriend/lawyer Howard K. Stern and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich have been found guilty of supplying drugs to Anna Nicole Smith, and obtaining them under false names. A third doctor was acquitted. The defense had argued Smith was not an addict.
The Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal from the estate of Anna Nicole Smith. It's not the first time the nation's highest court has taken an interest in the dead actress's case.
