CBS/AP: Report: Drugs Found In Anna Nicole's Room
Feb. 9, 2007

http://www.showbuzz.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/02/09/people_late_great/main2452378.shtml

(CBS/AP) She was sometimes compared to Marilyn Monroe and now the two have something else in common, besides blond bombshell looks.

WCBS-TV in New York reports that while searching Anna Nicole Smith's hotel room late Thursday afternoon, investigators found two key pieces of evidence: illegal narcotics and prescription medications.

1. Marilyn wasn't into illegal drugs
Her problem was sleeping pills.

4. Why did you even reply then?
That woman did not deserve to die and she never hurt anyone but herself.

5. Please stop CNN. They are attempting to say that ANS and Marilyn are similiar
UMM
One married a hall of fame baseball player and fooled around with a President.
The other one had a show on E where she was incoherent 99% of the time.

One defined beauty for generations to come.
The other defined sloppy bimbo for ratings.

6. I don't believe this has been confirmed yet
but all that stress in someones life can cause someone to drink or do drugs..especially if they are already chronically depressed. It isn't really something to laugh about.

21. …and Marilyn was an original.
AC was a Marilyn wannabe. Marilyn was petite compared to AC at 5'11". Marilyn was also married to Arthur Miller, playwright. AC was virtually illiterate.

8. AP: Smith's mother blames drugs for death
February 9, 2007

http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/nation/ny-natanna0209a,0,4395830.story?coll=ny-main-bigpix


HOLLYWOOD, Fla. -- The mother of former Playboy playmate and model Anna Nicole Smith blamed drugs Friday for her daughter's sudden death that ended an extraordinary tabloid life at just 39.

"I think she had too many drugs, just like Danny (Smith's late son)," her mother, Vergie Arthur, told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Friday. "I tried to warn her about drugs and the people she hung around with. She didn't listen.

"She was too drugged up."

10. Makes me wish for the days when everything in the world wasn't printed
or televised.

When ET is on I generally switch channels usually to Satellite. ET would seem to always do bits on Smith it seem like every night.

13. Media makes a big deal about things that appear to be major
and rare only because it wasn't readily available to the public in the old days.

12. It really is a who gives a damn
But think about it, while I agree that drugs had their part in taking her down she never would have achieved the fame she had without them. So, while I think she would be alive today without the drugs you also would never be talking about her without those drugs, crazy but true. I predict that Oxycontin racist Rush goes down next, I can't see him making another year.

16. personally
I think the shiesty lawyer kept them both hopped up on drugs to make this happen. He isn't stupid and that is a lot of money to get if the kid is really his.

18. What money?
The Supreme Court ruled her case should be heard by a lower court.

As far as I know, that case was not concluded before her death.

22. Do you work for Fox?
what a deceptive headline. isn't the crux of the story there were LEGAL drugs (mostly cold medication) found in her hotel, NONE in her stomach, and NO evidence of chronic drug abuse????

but to clarify this would require some decency and class...i suspect you won't clarify.
