Howard K. Stern, the executor of her Anna’s estate is helping Larry with the auction. Julien’s Auctions will run the sale June 26th at Planet Hollywood.

I love the music in this. It starts with J. Howard Marshall II, Anna’s 2nd husband. Then moves into Larry with most pics with Howard actually in the background. I didn’t catch that at first. I think Larry was more a part of Anna’s life then I had previously believed.

In the pictures of Howard & Anna, at least in this one video, I don’t get the overwhelming sense of love. It just seems like a friendly relationship. The mock wedding in The Bahamas, Anna obviously was “not all there.” It was just for show and nothing more. She looked like she was made to do it, not into it at all. Like a show, which she was famous for, but in this particular role she was NOT convincing.

I stand corrected, in one area — the one small snippet at 1:47 in the video, with Daniel, it was totally and undeniably believable. Her love for him shined through like a flicker of flame on a prism. It permeated and enveloped everyone in it’s path.

Watch the video and see if you get the same impression. This is after all, simply my impression, not anything more.

Big Moe, Anna’s former bodyguard, tells the court that he saw Howard K. Stern load a syringe with crushed up valium but he didn’t actually see Howard inject Anna. Howard has not been able to move on since Anna’s death and now lives with his parents. In the video below it is stated that the Hard Rock Cafe called the doctor, however, Howard canceled it because he didn’t want the publicity.

The whole premise of the accused defense is that Anna had a lot of health issues that were addressed by her doctors and everyone around her who even attempted to delve deeper into her ever increasing “drug use” was informed that all the drugs were prescription drugs, therefore, it was Okay! All of her friends, doctors, boyfriends easily gave into her request for more and more because they trusted the judgment of her doctors. Therefore, no one is guilty of anything other than trying to help her. All I can say is please don’t “help” me if I beg.

I must be weird because I grew up with the understanding that if someone busted their “chops” trying to get you to quit something that wasn’t good for you it was an act of kindness. They willingly took your “guff and abuse” because it was the right thing to do. It was their duty if they cared at all for you. It was when they gave into your every whim that showed a total lack of caring and love.

I teach my grandkids that if I take the time to punish and scold them that I am showing them “I care.” It takes a lot of energy to do this and if I didn’t care I wouldn’t bother. It is much easier to just ignore it and hope that it goes away. Maybe I have it wrong and Howard has it right. Who am I to say?

Prosecutors said Anna was prescribed huge amounts of pills, from even when she was pregnant. They equated that to giving a loaded gun to someone that is suicidal and saying “Be careful, don’t pull the trigger!”

Larry Birkhead speaks about his life with Anna prior to their separation and tells us how Dannileynn is doing. They show some really good current photos of the little darling. She is looking more and more like Anna as she gets older.

I will keep you posted on the outcome of the whole mess, or should I say tragedy!

Larry Birkhead, Dannielynn’s father (Anna Nicole’s ex-beau) has been ever so graciously taking the time to let the news media know his whereabouts so their pictures can be published. It has been rumored that he has even consented to doing exclusive photo shoots where he ever so humbly accepted $1.7 million dollars for his efforts. We can keep up on Dannielynn’s development without much effort. Thanks to these videos we know know that she is very beautiful, just like her mother, and she even resembles her dad too. If rumors are correct, we will soon be able to watch Dannielynn grow up even more right on our TV sets in their new Reality TV Show.

In total fairness to Larry Birkhead and his parenting skills, Dannielynn looks like she totally worships the ground her Dad walks on. She is playful and happy around him. He must be doing a great job, despite the opinions of some. He talks about someday having more children but is content for now just being her Dad. She has a Dad that loves her very much, unlike how Anna grew up. So maybe she stands a chance being in the limelight like her mother having a good solid family foundation in which to draw her strength from.

Larry was proven via DNA testing to be the biological father of Anna Nicole’s daughter Dannielynn. Anna had named Howard K. Stern as her father on her birth certificate and the baby carried his last name. However, once Larry Birkhead proved he was the dad, he was allowed to have Stern’s last name removed and his daughter now carries his legacy. He stated in court that a year before the conception of Dannielynn, Anna had been pregnant with his baby and miscarried during the first few weeks of pregnancy. He appears to be a loving and devoted father to her and is seen by all in the never-ending photos he keeps releasing.

Larry met Anna in Kentucky, where he is from. She was at a Gala surrounding the Kentucky Derby in 2004. Larry E. Birkhead is an American Entertainment photojournalist and currently is working on a reality TV show of his own (so I hear). He enjoys the limelight immensely and has chosen to follow in Anna’s footsteps apparently. Dannielynn has no choice in the matter at this early age.

Larry has a twin brother Lewis and two sisters, Angela Johnson who lives in Myrtle Beach and half-sister Judy. He was raised in the Louisville, Kentucky area.

The public has mixed feelings regarding Larry’s motives for constantly finding himself in the view of the Paparazzi. Most feel it is tacky and downright uncalled for. The photo opportunity he took advantage of that has so many people upset over is the one at Anna’s grave site. Dannielynn would NOT have any idea what is going on yet and people are up in arms over his blatant “pimping her out” as they call it. Most of the shopping expeditions Larry has gotten “caught” in on the videos are stores where the Paparazzi are constantly hovering around, again another reason people think he is up to no good. It is all staged, probably fueling the fire for his upcoming TV Show no doubt!

Some folks love seeing Dannielynn at any cost. It seems that the latter has won out if the rumors of his Reality TV show are true. Then everyone can watch Dannielynn grow up. She is a cutie, that is for sure!

As many of you remember Anna carried around her pet dog wherever she went, just like Sharon Osbourne and Paris Hilton. She was seen at the 2004 American Music Awards with her Maltese “Marilyn” – gee wonder where she got that name from?

Marilyn with Mom

1. Sugar Pie – a black toy poodle.

– Sugar Pie was old and going blind so she is staying with a close family friend. Larry thought it best that she not be around a newborn as she was getting grouchy in her old age.

Sugar Pie was seen on !E on a regular basis and “The Anna Nicole Show”. Viewers learned that Sugar Pie had learned a very bad habit of “hunching” inanimate objects after seeing her owner “in action”. Anna even hired a dog psychic to try to solve the problem, but to no avail!

2. Marilyn – a Maltese (shown in the pic)
Puppy – a black and white Shih-Tzu and
3. Frankenstein – a Shih-Tzu

Howard K. Stern, Anna’s boyfriend and former attorney, is now caring for Marilyn, Puppy and Frankenstein in his CA home. He says they have given him solace and strength to continue on without Anna. He claims they have seen him through the rough patches. I have read that Larry awarded the dogs to Howard so they would not be broken up. Larry has since bought Dannielynn a Yorkie.

Anna also was an activist for the prevention of cruelty to animals and appeared in this campaign which alleges “deplorable” conditions in Iams’ contract laboratory:


Marilyn, Puppy and Sugar Pie Join PETA!

Anna’s protesting pooches are refusing dog food from Iams in a new advertisement for PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

“Marilyn, Sugar Pie and Puppy are boycotting Iams until it stops testing on animals in labs,” the poster reads beneath a picture of Anna Nicole Smith, a former Playboy model, and her three dogs (before Frankenstein came onto the scene).

As expected, Iams, which sells pet food and pet care products, disputed the allegations.
