Too Much Anna
By Jim Idema
I don’t know about you, but I’d had enough of Anna Nicole Smith before she died; now the airwaves seem to be filled with her ample images.
OK, ok, she’s a human being who died and left a five-month-old baby without a mother, and OK, it’s not real clear who the father is. And OK, maybe the baby stands to inherit four hundred million dollars should the courts decide that Anna’s ex-husband’s estate belongs in her tiny hands. But dang, isn’t enough enough already?
Before Ms. Smith passed away from unknown causes, she was the toast of Entertainment Tonight and The Insider (I’m not sure why those two are supposed to be synonymous but apparently they are). Virtually every broadcast included a tag team of correspondents with long faces, listening as the cameras rolled on Anna’s tearful revelations on everything from her own son passing away suddenly to her disdain for her mother. We who viewed such episodes (under protest, I might add) rolled our eyes and out loud encouraged ET and The Insider to move on with the latest Britney escapade or another day in the life of Brangelina. Not that these stories were any more interesting, but at least they were about entertainers, right?
