Product Description
YOU PROBABLY THINK YOU KNOW ALL THERE IS TO KNOW.

ANNA NICOLE SMITH LOST HER SON.

SHE ACCIDENTALLY OVERDOSED. SHE WAS A DRUG ADDICT.

YOU DON'T KNOW A THING...

She was famous for being famous-Americana at its Scarlet Letter-wearing best. A bodacious young girl from Texas, Anna remade herself into the centerfold of the world. She was a "dumb blonde," a stripper, a Playboy Playmate, who boldly took her case against her billionaire husband's family all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. Her tragic life and untimely death evoke an odd mix of fascination, shock, and dismay. And through it all, there still exists a voracious thirst to discover more about who she actually was...and how she really died.

In a book that is sure to surprise even the most avid pop culture junkies, Rita Cosby blows the lid off this astounding story. After an in-depth investigation, this is the definitive journalistic account of the Anna Nicole Smith saga-with unearthed secrets and explosive, never-before-told information.

5 out of 5 stars Terrific book!   November 8, 2008
Guarantee, the people who gave this book one star haven't even read it. There are a bunch of internet crazies out there who still think Howard K. Stern is innocent of every crime author Rita Cosby alleges in her book. The same kind of people believe Scott Peterson was wrongly found guilty. These kooks actually organized a campaign to bomb Cosby's book before it was even released!

Hoping the world would quickly dismiss the deaths of Anna Nicole Smith and her son, Howard K. Stern tried his best to prevent Cosby's book from being published. Stern is suing Cosby and her publisher for $60 million in damages for defamation. In a similar case, Stern also file suit against Texas attorney John O'Quinn for defamation, vowing to resurrect his reputation in court after the lawyer called Stern a murderer and baby kidnapper and extortionist on TV. The suit against O'Quinn went nowhere. Stern and the lawyer settled out of court; details of the settlement are confidential. Needless to say, Stern never did deny the lawyer's accusations; nor did he resurrect his non-existent "good reputation."

Anna's mother, Virgie Arthur, is currently suing Howard K. Stern and "Entertainment Tonight's" parent studio (CBS) in Federal Court for defamation. She also has a suit in Texas State court against Stern, TMZ (an internet celebrity rag), celebrity gossip columnist Art Harris, as well as a handful of internet bloggers who worked with Bonnie Stern (Howard's sister) and Stern's attorneys to find skeleton's in Mrs. Arthur's closet. Bonnie Stern is also included in the state suit. Depositions are slated to begin in January 2009.

Cosby's book hit the market at a time when the public's interest in Howard's involvement as Anna's lawyer, self-proclaimed lover, and supposed father of Anna's infant daughter Dannielynn was beginning to wane. Anna's death was quickly dismissed as an accidental overdose (who wouldn't jump to that conclusion after Stern ensured, during the last months of Anna's life, that in every one of her TV appearances she was depicted as high as a kite?). Daniel's death was ruled an accidental overdose as well in an Inquest after a Bahamian magistrate told the jury they were not allowed to come back with a murder charge. Cosby's book renewed interest in Stern's behavior and explores the possible motives and opportunities in which he may have committed the murders. It delves, for example, into the reasons Stern wanted sole custody of Anna's newborn baby and why he went to such great lengths to try to prevent a DNA test that would exclude him as the father. The connection between the baby, Anna's late billionaire husband, and the potential half-billion dollars the baby could be worth someday is examined as a possible motive.

Cosby's book is written as investigative journalism aimed at a general audience, making it a very easy read. The events leading up to and after Anna Nicole and her son's deaths are in no way linear; many things were happening at the same time and Cosby lays out her book that way. By the end, the reader has all the information in order to draw his or her own conclusion.



2 out of 5 stars Nothing that you havn't heard before   October 7, 2008

The book basically just tells you everything you already know if you've followed up on Anna Nicole Smith and her life and death. I liked the book better than Train Wreck, but I wished it had more pictures and better information.


3 out of 5 stars slow go   September 15, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

it took a while for this one to get going but about half way through it i finally started to get interested... not well written in the beginning, too much he said this but she said that but he said this and she said that, on and on... but like i said it finally made some points, but you are still left wondering what happened....


1 out of 5 stars dreadful   April 28, 2008

This book was a dreadful read, confusing, bias and with no cited sources to back up startling allegations. I was disappointed and turned off!


5 out of 5 stars Worth the money   April 5, 2008
If you are a Anna Nicole Smith fan this is a book for you. I read the book in one sitting. This is a book that you can't put down. You will definitely enjoy it. It's worth the money
