Anna Nicole Smith collapsed in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., and was rushed to a hospital on Thursday. A Hollywood, Fla., fire department spokesman told MSNBC TV that the actress was unresponsive when the rescue unit arrived on the scene.

Sources confirmed to Access Hollywood that Smith was transported to Memorial Regional Hospital shortly after 2 p.m. EST on Thursday. Access Hollywood also is reporting that Smith was intubated at the scene.

Officials told the Miami Herald, "it does not look good."

My goodness. I've been asleep all afternoon and just woke up to hear this news, but no details. Got a lot of reading to do.

[Miss Marple]

OK...who is this guy who is saying she was "our royalty?"

Please. This is over the top.

Peyton Manning is a Republican? If so,I can't wait to tell my fellow liberal teacher friend, who loves him ,the truth!!!!

[Arizona Carolyn]

I missed it, had switched to MS for a minute,

Yes, what a coincidence. And this is just what her mother feared would happen. What a cad that Stern to keep her mother, who had raised Daniel for many years, from contact with her daughter.

The death should be investigated. Court TV recently covered the case of a Marine whose death was also dismissed as natural causes and only years later was it discovered he was poisoned - the wife was convicted.

[Howlin]

IMO, she should have gone today.

[Arizona Carolyn]

It definitely has.

[Miss Marple]

You betcha. He donated to the Republican senate candidate in Tennessee and to Bush/Cheney 2004....maximum allowed.

"I have known a lot of musicians, and I've known
a lot of addicts. In quiet moments, they're all human, desperate and terribly sad."

Yes. And that is why such people try to avoid quiet moments.

>Am I understanding that you are saying that Courtney Love, because of her tangential relationship to the weirdo Curt Cobain, is MORE valuable than Smith? Good heavens!

Ummm-- [tries to think fast] . . .
Yeah. But I acknowledge that
it's not cut and dried.

I have been reading
about Jeanne Hebuterne
lately so I have

a little bias
toward anyone connected
to something like art.

How would Wecht know?

[spectre]

Greg Gutfeld, host of "The Red Eye"..and full of hot air calling her "Our Royalty"...You're right! It was over the top.

[Miss Marple]

Wecht probably got a large check which helped him form his opinion.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Poor old, dead James Brown. In cold storage at home while the family fights over his money.

Wonder if anyone pops in to say hello?

[Arizona Carolyn]

He's a sleeze and not the babies father; but she is his new meal ticket so we'll see what happens next.

[Miss Marple]

Thank you. I had never seen that guy and couldn't figure out why his opinion (worthless as it was) should be aired.

[TN Conserative]

thanks, I can't wait to tell my friend!It will either destroy her or she will convert!

It does seem like authors and musicians and other creative people have often had a lot of pain in their lives.

I remember an award show where somebody said from the stage that if anybody in the audience had had a non-disfunctional family they wouldn't be at a Hollywood award show.
