I don't know why but I always really liked her. Maybe it was the fact that she was like a thirties starlet, beauty being her only real talent.
Perhaps because I always support the under dog, I really wanted her to win the court battle for fortune left to her by her ninety year old husband, when it was contested by his son. For goodness sake, the old man died happy, let her have the money. Money she eventually won, but which didn't seem to bring much happiness.
Just reading her orbituaries, her life has been one roller coaster. Born into Texan poverty. Playboy centre fold. Reality tv star. I was also sad to read that her twenty year old son died of a drugs overdose, when in his mother's hospital room, whilst visiting her new baby, in September last year. There is a paternity suit looming as to the paternity of the poor baby, who is now the sole heir to a couple of hundred million dollar fortune. Who said soap operas were far fetched?
Anna Nicole, you may have not won a noble prize or brought about world peace, but you were very beautiful, and I liked you, and thirty nine is too young for anybody to die.
