Just watched the Ellen Show (I misspelled DeGeneres earlier, even tho I knew better) with Larry on as a guest.
It seemed really awkward, as if neither really knew why he was there, except that it was one year after Anna’s death. He just rambled on about going back to The Bahamas and how hard it was.
Ellen said something about how he had been criticized for having the photographers along when he and Dannielynn went to the graves and he launched into a spiel about how every time he opens his door there are 1000s of photographers out there following him ...
Then, he caught himself and said, “well, 100s, it’s not like I’m Britney Spears or something ...”
(Sorry, I don’t believe for one minute that *any* paps camp right outside Anna’s house and wait for him to come out.)
Thus, *because of all those paparazzi* and “myself having a background in photography and journalism, I like to document things,” he had them go to The Bahamas with him.
Huh? That doesn’t make any sense at all. If he “invites” ET to pay him for some footage of Dannielynn, then “everyone’s happy”?
Anyway, the main thing, which I believe was probably the pitch for getting him on the show, but which he seemed to not realize, was that the “Dannielynn House” for Habitat for Humanity will be built in Louisville over the Fri-Sat 2-day weekend of April 25-26.
*He* chose the recipient, who is a single mother of 3, two of whom have spina bifida. He said it was important to give the house to a single mother.
I noted that he has changed it to the “Dannielynn House” instead of just being sponsored by Dannielynn in memory of Anna and Daniel. Of course, Anna and Daniel are named Smith, not Birkhead.
Anyway, Dannielynn wasn’t on - and just a couple of older photos of her were shown on the backscreen. Oh, and FWIW, he wore a lavender shirt, lol.
Also, just finally saw the Big Moe segment on Access Hollywood that mentioned Dr KE.
It was part of a larger report on drugs in Hollywood and the several OD deaths recently, including ANS. They talked about doctor shopping and so forth.
Then they went to ANS’s case up close, showing a clip of an interview with Kapoor from last year - “Anna called me Doctor Sandy” - plus pix of them at the Gay Pride Parade.
Then a brief clip of Dr KE without sound - then they went to Big Moe in another part of his latest interview with them. (I didn’t see the other two parts, but have read online some of what he said, as posted here.)
Cutting to the chase here, the part I’d heard about wasn’t *quite* like I’d heard it would be.
Tony Potts said something about Eroshevich getting too close to her patient, then he said to Big Moe, “didn’t she sleep in the same bed with Anna Nicole?” Big Moe said “Yesh, she did sometimes.”
(I thought it was going to be racier than that.)
He said he thought Dr KE was a nice lady who got caught up in the celeb thing and was manipulated to “get us this” or “give us that.” I *assume* he was saying that HKS was doing this manipulation, knowing how Big Moe felt about Anna.
thanks for all the show reviews :)
i caught the Ellen show, and from LB’s performance, I can imagine now, how he first presented himself to Opri. with fake almost-tears the entire time he was speaking - noticeably off-key to the show’s normal, happy, cheery, superficial topics, feelgood tone - he made a point of telling that he had ‘gone thru the belongings of two dead people’ (!) (imow) and found a bunch of pledges to charitable causes - by that, he ‘learned’ that Anna ‘adopted’ children by giving money to them...(but nothing about what he learned going thru Daniel’s belongings!)...rambling about the Dannielynn house to be built in HIS hometown ..and with a ‘background’ in photojournalism he had a natural ‘need’ to ‘document’ DL’s life (like HKS documented Annas’?) [creeped me out]
Imo everything he said and his body language was an attempt to play the ‘sympathy card’ with Ellen and her audience and his whole interview was a complete downer - including his shaking Ellen’s hand instead of a hug .I ws relieved when the chemical guy came out and lightened up the mood!! the audience’s consolation prize for listening to his self-agrandization was Virgin Airlines Sir Richard coming out later and giving everyone two tickets to NYC!! HA!
