WASHINGTON - With an oil fortune on the line, former stripper Anna Nicole Smith encountered a sympathetic audience at the Supreme Court on Tuesday. Several justices said they were concerned that the one-time Playboy Playmate was kept from pursuing a piece of her late husbands fortune. Its quite a story, said Justice Stephen Breyer.

I heard they installed brass pole in the Supreme Court chambers to see if she might dance for them, is that true or not?
Trimspa Baby!
Ginsburg made that request (for some reason) but the others said no.
Associate Justice Clarence Thomas reportedly said, "Will everyone PLEASE stop looking at me whever anyone mentions Playboy?"
Was she drunk for SCOTUS?
It was former Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith who grabbed headlines last year at the American Music Awards when she slurred through her introduction for singer Kanye West. Smith, who arrived at the show 10 minutes after it had started, appeared drunk onstage and her speech, which began as she questioned indistinctly, "Like my body?" was cut short when producers feared she would do something shameful. Smith then staggered around backstage and had to be helped to stand up by two bodyguards. Of course her manager blamed her slurred speech on not being able to read the teleprompter due to her "bad eyes."
Pictures?
They should be sympathetic.
Howard pursued her for years and she turned him down time after time. She finally relented and married him. She should have been his beneficiary like any other wife.
That everybody thinks she was a gold-digger should never enter into it. Howard had a right to do whatever he wanted with his money. He wanted her. He married her. End of story.

That's some hardcore diet she's been on!
Now that is plastic surgery!
Did she show them her briefs?
There was an ugly J&J lawsuit some years ago. The old guy married the polish maid. They were married for about 9 years. His family sued her and the lawyers reaped many many millions.
You can say that again!
The grieving widow getup and cross are nice touches.
Of course, the justices need to keep abreast of the law. They can't just rely on counsel's thong and dance.
I was quite surprised when I saw these pictures today:

As I told onyx, she looks better now than she did when she was the age she looks now, if you can follow that!
