Howard K. Stern Arrested for Giving Anna Nicole Smith Drugs

And here you thought you had heard the last of Howard K. Stern… wishful thinking. The man who was at the forefront of the Anna Nicole Smith baby paternity battle is making headlines yet again. This time, though, the issue is not child’s play. Rather, Stern has been formally charged with conspiring to furnish drugs to the Playboy Playmate prior to her death. According to reports, Stern, who at one time referred to himself as Smith’s fiance and claimed to be the father of her daughter Dannielyn, was arrested and charged with allegedly conspiring to “fuel an addict with prescription … Continue reading →

Infamous Hotel Rooms – Part 2

Posted on by

Are you planning to travel this summer and still looking for an unusual place to stay? Consider some of one of these infamous hotel rooms: Room 217 – The Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, CO The Stanley Hotel was built in 1909 and is elegant and historic but apparently Stephen King saw more than that when he stayed in room 217. It is said that The Stanley Hotel was his inspiration for his thriller The Shining, although none of the movie was actually filmed here. Still, legend has it that the 138-room hotel is haunted, so maybe that provided inspiration for … Continue reading →

In Memoriam – 2007 – Part 1

As with all years, this year, we lost many celebrities and notables. Some lived to ripe old ages and some seemed to have left this old Earth far too soon. Here some of those we lost this year: Yvonne De Carlo – January 8 She was in “The Ten Commandments” but most people remember her as Lily Muster from the TV show, “The Munsters.” Art Buchwald – January 17 The columnist and political satirist died at the age of 81. He had stopped dialysis in late February, but lived almost a year after his kidneys began working again. Denny Doherty … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: Maria and Dave

No matter what happens with her husband’s political career don’t expect Maria Shriver to return to TV news. Mrs. Arnold Schwarzenegger says she has Anna Nicole Smith to thank for that decision. Shriver made the announcement about her career earlier this week during the annual California Governor and First Lady’s Conference on Women. You’ll recall Shriver took an extended leave from her job at NBC News when her husband ran for California governor in 2003. After he was elected, Shriver made two appearances as an anchor for “Dateline NBC.” A few months later she told her bosses that she could … Continue reading →

Dannielynn Turns One With A Royal Rockin’ Bash

Her mom always treated her like a princess so it was only fitting that little Dannielynn Birkhead would celebrate her 1st birthday like royalty. Anna Nicole Smith’s only daughter was the toast of Louisville, Kentucky on Saturday. That’s where her dad Larry Birkhead hosted a huge soiree at socialite Tricia Barnstable Brown’s mansion. Do you remember what you did to celebrate your first-born’s first birthday? My daughter smashed cake into her mouth and fell asleep before her gifts were opened. Compare that with Dannielynn’s bash, which featured a princess theme complete with a “castle as big as the house,” white … Continue reading →

Celebs New Gigs

Well, you had to see this coming. He may be the only other man involved in the Anna Nicole Smith saga, besides Larry Birkhead, who emerged smiling. I’m referring to Judge Larry Seidlin… the wisecracking, tear-stained, snarky, former New York cab driver who presided over the Anna Nicole Smith case. During the court proceeding Seidlin frequently threw out comedic one-liners and referred to the lawyers with nicknames such as “Tex” and “California.” At the time, many observers called Seidlin’s behavior an act and maintained he was angling for his own television program ala “Judge Judy.” Well, guess what? They were … Continue reading →

From May to December – Age Difference in Marriage

Does age really make a difference where love is concerned? The romantic in me would like to believe that it doesn’t – but the stigma attached to a May-December relationship says otherwise. The term itself, May-December, refers to a huge age difference between a groom and his bride. Oddly enough, when an older woman marries a younger man, the stigma is not as profound, but when a man of advanced years marries a much younger woman, it’s a whole other ball of wax. Anna Nicole Smith The first name that may pop to mind when you think May-December is Anna … Continue reading →

Celebrity Updates: Regis Returns, Dannielynn Says Bye-Bye to the Bahamas, and More

REGIS RETURNS He’s baaaack! Talk show host Regis Philbin returned to his day job (and a standing ovation by hundreds of fans) today—six weeks after undergoing triple heart bypass surgery. Did you get to see any part of his return on “Live With Regis and Kelly?” I saw bits and pieces and agree with everyone who expressed amazement at how well Philbin looks. (Hard to believe he’s 75!) As promised David Letterman, host of CBS’”Late Show,” was Philbin’s first guest. Letterman called it “payback time.” (Philbin was a guest host when Letterman underwent heart bypass surgery in 2000). Philbin mentioned … Continue reading →

Larry’s The Daddy—Now What?

If you haven’t already heard the “earth-shattering” news—according to news reports, DNA test results revealed yesterday that Larry Birkhead is the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Dannielynn. Are you surprised? (Families.com members contributing to a “Who’s The Daddy” poll in the forums shouldn’t be—they pegged Birkhead as the father weeks ago.) Anna Nicole’s ex-boyfriend (well, one of them at least) turns out to be the 7-month-old’s biological father—so does this mean the end to the media madness over all things related to the former Playboy Playmate? And, what of Smith’s companion Howard K. Stern (the man listed on Dannielynn’s … Continue reading →

The Diaries of Anna Nicole

Come now, did you really think the whole Anna Nicole Smith thing was going to die down after her autopsy results were announced? Just when it seemed that maybe, just maybe the only thing left to cover was Dannielynn’s paternity, someone comes up with two Anna Nicole diaries. It looks like no one will give Anna Nicole any rest, even in death. The diaries, in addition to other Anna Nicole memorabilia will be auctioned off in a couple of weeks by Heritage Auction Galleries. These diaries, from the early 90s, cover many personal aspects of her life including her issues … Continue reading →
