<![CDATA[Howard K. Stern: I Did Have Sexual Relations With That Woman]]>
Howard K. Stern was on Larry King Live last night to discus his $60 million libel lawsuit against Rita Cosby for allegations she made in her book Blonde Ambition. Larry played clips of Howard's past appearances on the show, including one in which he appears with Anna and the two claim to strictly have a client/lawyer/BFF relationship. Another clip shows him claiming to be Dannielynn's father, and that the two had been secret lovers for years. Even confronted with his own lies and shady behavior, he still insists on sticking to his story of the moment — that he and Anna were lovers for years, that they truly believed he was the father of the baby, that he was willing to take a DNA test to prove that the whole time, that they didn't do drugs, and that he never sucked off Larry Birkhead. Howard also discussed recently-surfaced pictures in which Anna looks totally wasted while holding daughter Danielynn. Check out the shots after the jump.

These were the original shots that were floating around the internet, suggesting that Anna was high (what a shock) and puking.

But Howard K. Stern, determined to defend her honor, said she wasn't puking, but was eating KFC and getting the tartar sauce all over herself... topless. He brought this picture on to prove it. What a prince he is!

Don't you just love how Dannielynn is giving first an expression of shock, then of disapproval? That's sorta how we felt watching her mom, too. Except we would always laugh in the end.

Then he and his bodyguard dumped the "body" somewhere in the middle of the night. [Rush & Molloy]

<![CDATA[Anna Nicole's Daughter Misses Out On Dolls]]> Last night I took a moment to duck into the party for Rita Cosby's just-released new expose on Anna Nicole Smith's death. And who was there but one of my favorite cable news/E! fixtures, Virgie Arthur, mother of Anna Nicole herself. (Natalee Holloway's mom turned up too — in fishnets and black knee boots.) The real news of the evening — besides the fact that Rita got served with papers en route to her very own party — was that Virgie sent Anna Nicole's daughter Dannielynn Christmas gifts and that Larry Birkhead mailed them back to her. Virgie told me she went to the effort to buy not one but two baby dolls — "And one said 'I love you!' when you pressed her stomach!" — but Birkhead sent them back unopened. Schmuck. He could have least donated them to charity.
