I was trying to find that article and came across this:
"On her back, Powledge has a tattoo of Anna Nicole’s face — a typical testament of devotion. The World of Wonder-produced documentary “Dark Roots” shows several of Smith’s kin who also inked the former Playmate on their skin. Her Uncle Floyd has a nude rendition of Anna on his back, while her Aunt Kay has a more modest back image. Cousin Melinda Hudson has Anna’s face on her leg."
I said earlier that Anna wanted to brand the people around her with her likeness. I saw a picture of her Aunt on one of the entertainment shows. I think she may be on Monday.
I can't even think of a nice way to put what she looked like. I wonder if it is her Aunt Kay. that Aunt must be the one who took the topless photos of ANS on the horse
One evening in December 1993, Sandi and Anna were lying in bed when Anna rolled over and said, "Why don't you get my face tattooed on your back?" Okay, said Sandi. And she marched off to do it.
"How big is it?'' Anna asked from New York.
Big, said Sandi -- takes up the whole shoulder.
"Shoulder!'' said Anna. "I wanted your whole back. Go do it again.''
Sandi stood firm for once. The tattoo hurt. But Anna really wanted a human billboard, and she turned to her blood relations, who proved reliable. An aunt Kay took Anna on the back, and a niece got branded on the ankle.
Anna was thrilled. Tattoos were no asset for a model, but she couldn't help herself. On February 27, 1994, according to Sandi's diary, Anna, too, drove up to a small strip mall on Aldine-Westfield and walked into Bubba's Skin Pin Studio. Sandi stood over Bubba as he worked his craft upon Anna Nicole's shaved pudendum. He recorded there a symbol that might be mistaken for a dollar sign -- an S with a line descending from the lower loop, forming the initials SP. Then, beside a likeness of two cherries, he slowly etched the words "Pawpaw's heart."

I watched maybe four episodes of her reality show. One had a cousin on...a dark haired woman who reminisced with Anna on their childhood and growing up together. This woman was about Anna's age (early 30's at the time) and she had no teeth! It was very sad.
