Dannielynn Is Still In the Bahamas: No Resolution

Like a once fantastic television show that is now limping along in it's 13th season, the Dannielynn custody battle is dragged out once again, with no resolution reached today. Larry Birkhead emerged from the courtroom today and said "I gotta call my travel agent, but I don't know if I need one ticket or two". Cryptic. Also, he could just go online and use Expedia or something!! Who has travel agents these day?

Virgie Arthur came out and said "I'm still holding on". Virgie wants visitation right and custody if anything happens to Larry. Ridiculous. Larry said earlier in the week that his own mother wants to be a grandmother as well, but he's not going to sign a piece of paper that states that.

Then Stern came out and said that Vergie was holding everything up, in his opinion it should have been over today and Vergie has "proved herself to be what Anna Nicole always told me."

Another hearing is set for Wednesday. Please, please, please let this be over on Wednesday and let Larry take his little girl home!!

Larry Parties All Night Long

Larry Birkhead has been having a fine time in the Bahamas according to Page Six. Larry was seen in a couple of nightclubs last week having a great time, and was very popular with the ladies!!

I don't blame him one bit. Larry, go out now while you can and party, because once you bring Dannielynn home you won't leave the house at night for about six years, so make the most of it now!!

Vergie Arthur is giving Larry some trouble in the custody negotiations. Apparently she wants Larry to agree that she gets custody of Dannielynn if anything was to happen to Larry. He does not agree.

In other fabulous Anna Nicole related news, one of our favorites, Bobby Trendy, has signed on to play himself in the Anna Nicole movie which is due to start filming shortly.

Bobby, we love you. Please if you read this, email us - we'd love to interview you for this blog!!!

Larry Birkhead: BREAKING NEWS

Larry Birkhead is Dannielynn Hope's biological father. The results are 99.99% certain - confirmed by Dr Michael Baird. They will be back in court on Friday for custody issues. Larry Birkhead came out of the Bahamania courtroom at 3:45pm and made the announcement and the crowd cheered. Howard Stern followed and said he was very disappointed, and would make sure that Larry Birkhead gets sole custody of Dannielynn. He also said the Larry was welcome to come over to the house at anytime and spend as much time with Dannielynn has he wished!!!

Congratulations Larry!!!! Mia and I wish you the best!!

Give Up, Vergie

Vergie Arthur has filed papers in the Bahamas, trying to become Dannielynn's guardian ad litem. What??? Give up Vergie, the only way that you even have a small chance of becoming Dannielynn's guardian is if the paternity test reveals that Dannielynn's father is neither Birkhead, Stern or Prince Von Zsa Zsa. (source)

This action better not hold up the paternity results being released!!!!!

Anna Nicole: Accidental Overdose

Dr Joshua Perper has just announced Anna Nicole Smith's cause of death was accidental overdose of chloryl hydrate, a sleeping medication.

Chief Charlie Tiger of the Seminole Police Department also spoke and said that the case will be closed, as there is no evidence of homicide. Chief Tiger also said "at this point, Howard K Stern will not be charged with anything".

Dr Perper spoke at length and described all the stages of the autopsy and subsequent toxicology reports and investigations.

So it was an accidental overdose combined with drug intoxication.

Poor thing. I feel bad for her.

Judge Orders DNA Test for Dannielynn

Today a Bahamain Judge ordered DNA tests for Larry Birkhead, Howard K Stern, and baby Dannielynn. TMZ.com is reporting that Larry Birkhead left the courtroom pumping his fists in the air, delirious with his victory. Samples of Anna Nicole Smith's DNA have already been collected.

Word is that results could come as early as the end of the week.

What a relief that someone has finally ordered DNA tests to be done. They really know how to move things along in the Bahamas!!! Hopefully Dannielynn will be with her biological father within weeks. Go Larry!!

I guess this makes Virgie Arthur's quest for guardianship irrelevant, unless the unthinkable happens and Larry is not the father.

Link It Like Beckham.....

David Beckham hurt his knee badly playing football on the weekend when he ran into an advertising sign. Could this be the end of his career? Maybe he won't end up moving to LA at all? That would be to bad, as I'm really looking forward to Posh's reality show. The good news is he didn't put a mark on that beautiful face.

Radar Online has an exclusive that those photos of Anna Nicole in the morgue may not be fake after all. The National Enquirer stated they were totally photoshopped, but now and insider has come out and said they are real. Only about 6 people would know if these photos are real. I know Larry would never tell, but two others could probably be persuaded to talk if the money was right, heh Howie and Vergie?

Ginger from Gilligan's Island is 73! She still looks pretty good!

Lindsay Lohan is sober and wants everyone to know about it. Poor Lindsay, I'm sure she's agreeing with Danny Bonaduce that privacy is overrated.

Britney is not doing to well in rehab. I can't really believe these rumors are true, and TMZ is reporting that she might not stick it out!

Anna Nicole: Funeral

As Anna Nicole's casket was brought into the Mt Horeb Baptist Church, it was a very powerful and solemn moment , reported MSNBC's Rita Cosby, soon after leaving the church.

Vergie Arthur gave a very personal speech about how much she loved Anna.

Larry Birkhead stood up and said "I know she was very special to everyone in this room" and then told some funny stories about Anna Nicole and ended by saying "Goodnight Sweet Anna baby", and then broke down and wept.

Howard K Stern, also spoke about Anna's rags to riches life and then turned on Vergie Arthur, by saying that testimony last week in the hearing was all lies, and that he knew the truth. After his speech, Howard K Stern's supporters got up and clapped.

We can't get over that. Clapped Howard K Stern at a funeral!! This could have been grandstanding for the television cameras that were present in the church. It has been rumored that Howard K Stern has made a deal with Entertainment Tonight for the exclusive rights to the funeral. Other speculation is that Richard Milstein was having it filmed for Dannielynn. We're going with the Stern rumor.

The funeral procession is now on the way to the graveside, where Anna Nicole will be buried with an urn containing half the ashes of her late husband, J Howard Marshall.

Ann Nicole's Red Carpet Arrival

Anna Nicole's Red Carpet Arrival

A short time ago, Anna Nicole's white hearse arrived at the Mt Horeb Baptist Church. The red carpet was rolled out and her casket, covered with a pink blanket, tulle and ribbons was carried into the church by pallbearers with pink ties and pink boutonnieres.

The motorcade carrying Anna Nicole waited for 25 minutes outside the church to find out if Vergie Arthur's last minute attempt to have the funeral stopped was successful. Her motion was denied!!.

MSNBC is reporting that there are over 300 people in the church, including Slash from Guns'NRoses and MSNBC's Rita Cosby.

Larry Birkhead arrived to cheers from the crowd, Howard K Stern arrived to jeers from the crowd. Vergie Arthur had a mixed welcome. Dannielynn was not present.

It is being reported that there are camera crews inside the church and Howard K Stern has a contractual agreement for a "substantial amount" with the camera crew. It is also being reported that Howard K Stern has arranged a "party" tonight at the prestigious Ocean Club in Nassau.

More later!!

Anna Nicole: Funeral Arrangements

Now that all the legal wrangling has been put aside for a few days, arrangements for Anna Nicole's funeral tomorrow have been made public. Richard Milstein, working on behalf of Dannielynn, just issued a schedule of events for tomorrow.

Anna Nicole's body will be leaving the Broward County Medical Examiners office at 5:25am and will then be flown by private plane to Nassau, Bahamas. The private service will be held at the Mt. Horeb Baptist Church at 10:30am followed by a private graveside service and burial at the Lakeview Memorial Gardens. The events are closed, but will have staging areas for the media. The last paragraph of the schedule states:

Mr Milstein requests that members of the media uphold the decorum and dignity that should be maintained throughout the process, for the sake of Dannielynn and the memories she will have of her mother's funeral.

Apparently the funeral is going to be very elaborate full of pink flowers, a specially made burial gown, and a well known singer (who has not been disclosed at this stage).

Vergie Arthur, Larry Birkhead and Howard K Stern all put aside their differences and worked together to arrange the funeral for Anna Nicole.

Anna Nicole To Be Buried in Bahamas

Breaking News: A Florida Appeals Court has rejected Vergie Arthur's appeal of Judge Larry Seildlin's ruling, which gave custody of the body to Richard Milstein, Dannielynn's guardian.

Anna Nicole will now be buried in the Bahamas on Friday at 10:30am.

In other news, Vergie Arthur got to visit her granddaughter, Dannielynn for the first time last night. The visit lasted about 50 minutes and Vergie looked distraught as she left the house.(TMZ )

I am very pleased that the court ruled this way. I think it's only right that Anna Nicole is buried next to her son Daniel, who died three days after Dannielynn was born. All indications pointed to the fact that Anna Nicole wanted to be buried with him as he was the most important person in her life. Sometimes I love this legal system!

I'm assuming everyone is going to show up for the funeral, Howard K Stern, Larry Birkhead, Vergie Arthur, all the lawyers and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Judge Larry Seidlin there, he seemed so emotionally invested in the case!!

Did Anna Nicole Have Lupus?

Everyone is wondering right now, did Anna Nicole have Lupus? Access Hollywood asked the question last night during the Larry Birkhead segment, saying the lupus combined with pregnancy could have put Anna Nicole in severe pain, which might hae been one of the reasons she was taking so many prescription drugs. The exact cause of Anna Niocle's death has not been determined yet as the Medical Examiner, Dr Perper, is still waiting on all the toxicology reports to come back.

It was also revealed to Access Hollywood's Tony Potts, through a source, that Larry Birkhead's visit with Dannielynn went really well, he got to feed her, hold her, change her and then she spat up on him. Probably the only time Larry was happy to be spewed on!!

Larry Birkhead gave a very emotional interview to Tony Potts. The rest of the interview will be aired tonight on Access Hollywood.

The 4th Circuit Court is hearing arguments about Anna Nicole's body as I type this! Nothing has been decided yet, but from what kind of questions the Judges were asking, it's not looking good for Vergie Arthur.

Larry Birkhead Meets Dannielynn

Over the weekend Larry Birkhead got to meet Dannielynn for the first time, reports TMZ.com

Howard K Stern has really backed down on his former position of keeping Dannielynn away from Birkhead and this is a huge breakthrough for Birkhead, being allowed to see Dannielynn, who he believes is his daughter.

That meeting must have been so emotional for Birkhead!

I hope you managed to get some DNA while you were there Larry!!

In other news Anna Nicole's body will not be transported to the Bahamas for a funeral this week as the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals has agreed to hear Vergie Arthur's appeal to gain custody of Anna Nicole's body and bury her in Texas.

Larry Birkhead On His Way To Bahamas.

Here's a few snippets I learned this morning from MSNBC's Rita Cosby.

Larry Birkhead is on his way to the Bahamas.
Larry Birkhead and Howard K Stern agree that Anna Nicole should be buried in the Bahamas in the next few days - so I guess neither of them are supporting Vergie Arthur in her appeal against Judge Seidlins ruling that Dannielynn's appointed lawyer will decided.
Cosby says that she heard that Stern is going to allow Birkhead to see Dannielynn while he's in the Bahamas!!!!
Debra Opri, Birkheads attorney, is talking about maybe bringing charges of kidnapping against Stern!!!!
There will be paternity hearings in the Bahamas tomorrow!

Wow - that's a lot to take in and very conflicting if Opri is going to press charges of Kidnapping, and yet Stern is going to let Birkhead see Dannielynn.

We are still on Team Larry - hope you get to see your little girl!!

Anna Nicole's Mother Takes The Stand, Can't Seem to Answer the Question

Vergie Arthur was on the stand all morning in the Anna Nicole Smith burial trial.Vergie seemed to have A LOT of memory issues. Here are some highlights from this mornings proceedings:
Click here to go to TMZ to see video

• Vergie couldn't remember when she first came into contact with Larry Birkhead, she finally said it was after Anna Nicole died.
• Vergie stated that she lost touch with Anna Nicole after Anna Nicole started to use drugs and stated that Howard K Stern drove them apart.
• Vergie said that she couldn't remember any conversations in the last 10 years with Anna Nicole about where Anna Nicole wanted to be buried. Richard Milstein (court appointed for Dannielynn), in cross examination finally got Vergie to admit that the last she knew, Anna Nicole wanted to be buried with the "Stars" in Hollywood. This is in direct contradiction to the reason Vergie is in court. She says that Anna Nicole wanted to be buried in Texas with her family.
• Vergie brought the courtroom to tears with her recounting of going to the Bahamas for Daniels birthday and being unable to find the grave and finally someone in the cemetery took pity on her and pointed to a grave with flowers on it. Vergie discovered that the flowers and the note were from Larry Birkhead!!
• Under cross examination from Krista Bath, Stern's Attorney, Vergie Arthur kept avoiding answering the question about wether she was paid $12,000 by Splash News for a video that Vergie made of a ceremony she held at the graveside of Daniel, Anna Nicole's son. Vergie kept deflecting the question by pointing at Stern and saying that Stern was the only one making any money from Anna Nicole's death. Judge Seidlin than asked that Bath produce some people from Splash News to testify as to wether Vergie Arthur was paid for the video.

Howard K. Stern takes the stand after the lunch break and then hopefully Larry Birkhead will have his chance to testify in this matter.

Mia and I have been sitting around with our mouths hanging open at Vergie Arthur's testimony. We think she is not telling the truth at all about not being paid for the video she took at Daniels graveside. This is just our opinion from what we have seen today. Time will tell, especially if the Splash News people can provide some evidence that contradicts Vergie.

UPDATE: Vergie Arthur admitted in court that her trip to the Bahamas was paid for by a third party. She went to the Bahamas with her sister in law and a friend of the family who works for Splash News. TMZ

"Anna Nicole Was My Goddess" - Stern.

Howard K Stern took the stand today at 12:15. He outlined how long he had known Anna Nicole (since 1996) and said of her "she was my whole world. My best friend, my lover, my goddess and the mother of my child".

Stern went on to describe their relationship as a "non-exclusive intimate relationship", which involved Anna Nicole having other boyfriends while she was with Stern, between the years of 2000-2007.

Krista Bath, Stern attorney, and Judge Seidlin, both questioned Stern. Stern outlined his relationship with Daniel Smith - "we were like brothers" and said that Daniel was "Anna's whole world".

Stern described looking for burial plots in Westwood, CA, in close proximity to the grave of Marilyn Monroe, as that was where Anna Nicole originally wanted to be buried, but it was cost prohibitive. Things changed of course when Daniel died last September in the Bahamas,and after much discussion,double plots were purchased in the Bahamas, and Daniel was laid to rest in one of the plots, and Stern contends that the other plot was for Anna Nicole, and "she always believed she would die young, like Marilyn Monroe".

Stern came across as very flat and factual, and didn't really show much emotion while he was on the stand. He is a lawyer and well accustomed to the courtroom.

For a period of time all the lawyers were in chambers with Judge Seidlin, so it was off camera. Larry Birkhead returned from chambers with a small smile on his face. I would love to know what went on in there. Birkhead and Stern are seated very close to each other, but from what I can see have not even acknowledged each other.

Just before court recess, it was agreed that Krista Bath, Stern's lawyer would bring into evidence tapes of interviews of Anna Nicole, where she is talking about her relationship with her mother Vergie Arthur. All lawyers argued for the full tapes of the interviews, not just the edited versions.

Mia and I are definitely on Team Larry Birkhead. After watching the sad video Stern took of Anna at 8 months pregnant, I just can't trust a word that Stern says.

Birkhead Lawyer Accuses Howard K Stern of Murder?

Birkhead Lawyer Accuses Howard K Stern of Murder?

The hearing into Anna Nicole Smith's burial continued today in Ft Lauderdale Fl. All the major players turned up. Howard K Stern caused pandemonium outside the courthouse on his arrival. Larry Birkhead and Vergie Arthur hugged in the courtroom. They appear united against the common enemy, Howard K Stern.

There was lots of talking and instruction from Judge Larry Seidlin, who jogged four miles this morning, and therefore "my head is very clear on all these issues".


The Judge also inexplicably asked Stern to get up and write Dannielynn's name down on a white board at the front of the courtroom. To prove what? I don't get it.

Ron Rale and Krista Bath - attorneys for Howard K Stern, battled to keep the jurisdiction of the court and the battle at hand narrowed to who gets custody of Anna Nicole's body for burial. They both seemed dead set against the court getting into the messy area of paternity. However, Judge Seidlin is all for the paternity of Dannielynn being discovered, as Seidlin believes that the paternity issue needs to be resolved for everyone's piece of mind and he also feels that the biological father of Dannielynn needs to have input into the burial of Anna Nicole Smith.

Krista Bath complained on the record to Judge Seidlin after Debra Opri went over to Howard K Stern and accused him directly of murdering Anna Nicole!!!! When Bath went on the record, Opri did not stand up and deny that she said it, however she looked at the judge and shook her head, implying that she didn't say it . Wow. That is totally amazing for a lawyer to get up in court and make accusations like that. Opri is a real wild card!

Judge Seidlin did not really react to Bath's accusation of the murder accusation - so maybe he didn't really belive that Opri said that? We wait to find out.

Anna Nicole: So Very Sad

TMZ has a very sad video of Anna Nicole. She is pregnant, stoned and Howard K Stern is filming her and even says that this video is going to be worth money. I feel really sad for Anna Nicole. Howard K Stern is clearly a complete prick.

Just moments ago, Howard K Stern entered the courthouse for todays hearing into the burial of Anna Nicole. He will probably testify as to her wishes. How will anyone be able to believe a word that comes out of his mouth? After seeing this video, it seems to be getting clearer what his motives were. Money.

Click here to see the video. Warning: it's very sad.

Larry Birkhead Arrives in Florida

Larry Birkhead has arrived in Florida, ready to address the court tomorrow in the matter of Anna Nicole Smith's burial. Howard K Stern has also been ordered to appear at the hearing. I wonder if he'll show up? Birkhead and Stern are both claiming that they are the father of Dannielynn, but only Birkhead has filed a paternity suit.

Maybe Birkhead will challenge Stern to a duel to settle the matter once and for all? Can't wait to see them both in the same courtroom.

Larry Birkhead tried to save Anna Nicole
Larry Birkhead: Anna was the love of my life

Finally - EXHIBIT A!!!

The Circus continues today in Broward County, Florida, with Judge Larry Seidlin presiding over the hearing as to who gets custody of Anna Nicole Smith's body. Judge Seidlin must have read my comments yesterday about how he was handling things and has toned his act down considerably. Krista Bath, attorney for Howard K Stern is another matter entirely. Bath continues to wave her arms around wildly and talk in extremely long sentences.

So far this morning Judge Seidlin has ordered that Anna Nicole Smith's body can be embalmed, and the embalming is to being this morning. Richard Milstein has been court appointed as Dannielynn's impartial representative in this matter and presumably other matters of paternity.

Steve Tunstall, attorney for Vergie Arthur also demanded that Anna Nicole's will be produced - which is now Exhibit A.

The biggest order that came down today is that Judge Seidlin has ordered Howard K Stern to appear in front of the court on Tuesday morning at 9:30 am. The Judge wants to hear what he has to say for himself.
