She was 39. We all saw the red velvet body bag. Her mom thinks it was drugs.
I even have to wonder aloud why I'm spending the time to write about this: WTF?

Anna Nicole Smith was a household name. Her fame started from her roots at Playboy Magazine, but nowadays, she is one of the few who are famous for being famous. She suddenly collapsed in her Florida hotel room yesterday, and the cause of death is still pending autopsy.

She strived to be like Marilyn Monroe, and she has achieved in one regard: they both died young. Everyone is buzzing about this, even those who disliked Smith, those who saw her as shameful. Why? In this nation of paparrazi (there was papparazzi footage of her last moments), we people need to know everything aout everyone. This will get lost of buzz because famous person + bizarre event = lots of media coverage.

You have to wonder how things would be like if she lived for a few more decades.

*If we all had mics and webcams, then we could do a group video chat.*
