This morning Rosie O'Donnell sort of responded to the death of Anna Nicole Smith. Rosie was under fire for making negative remarks about Anna hours before her death. Rosie wrote this later this 30-minutes ago:

Posted by ro on February 9th at 6:25pm in in the news

ME: BIG THINGS GOING ON IN THE NEWS. IF I HAVE TO SEE ANNA NICOLE SMITH ONE MORE TIME ON TELEVISION. THAT WOMAN AND HER PATERNITY TEST. .. AND SHE CAN HARDLY EVEN SPEAK NOW. SHE CAN’T EVEN SPEAK. SHE’S LIKE (I DO A BLANK AND MUMBLE INTO THE CAMERA) …YOU KNOW IT’S A TRAGEDY ALL AROUND. ..HER SON DIED. SHE HAS THIS LITTLE BABY. THERE’S OBVIOUSLY SOME KIND OF MEDICATION OR SUBSTANCE INVOLVED. I DON’T KNOW.
width=400 ELISABETH HASSELBECK: THAT’S AN ODD SITUATION.

KRISTIN CHENOWETH: OR NOT INVOLVED

ME: OR NOT INVOLVED, EVEN WORSE. BUT IT’S SORT OF LIKE DISTRACTING. THE ART OF DISTRACTION. THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO THINK ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE REAL.

EH:WHO DOESN’T.

ME: I THINK OUR CULTURE NOW.

EH:YOU THINK THE THE REPUBLICANS ARE PUTTING ANNA NICOLE ON THE TV ?

ME :NO.

JOY BEHAR: YOU CAN’T BLAME THE REPUBLICANS FOR EVERYTHING.

EH:WE WERE THERE BEFORE. JUST NEEDED TO CHECK.

i was in the air when Anna Nicole Smith died
the plane landed
my phone rang
“Anna Nicole Smith died three hours ago,” my publicist said
“Do you have a comment?” she asked.

unbearably tragic
2 words only
sums it up
pretty much

simply
to tell the truth
to speak of her suffering
2 notice 2 care

fame
more toxic than crack
one hit
and ur done

more tempting than sex
the suffering of someone else
her pain
entertainment

ya know
all anyone wants
r people who they know
will keep them from going over the edge

focus
breathe
keep me where the light is
we pray

I would comment, but I think my brain died from ANS overload. I'm going to go find out where Sugarpie is. Be right back.

Overall it's a good video...but someone tell ScarJo TO TAKE SOME ACTING LESSONS!

UPDATE - I take it back. This video sucks. It reminds me of Paula's Abdul's Rush Rush, but hers had more intense emotion and artistic integrity or in Paula's words "arthithic inthegrisses."

Zsa Zsa Gabor's former publicist claims that Frederick von Anhalt is a chronic liar and isn't even a prince. Freddy is the third man to come forward claiming he is the true father of Dannilynn Hope. Ed Lozzi said Freddy is "a chronic fabricator who likes to inject himself into current events to see himself on television."

Prince Freddy claims that he met Anna Nicole Smith while she was still married to that old guy. He said that Anna really wanted to be a princess and Freddy was going to adopt her, but Zsa Zsa denied him.

Um...ok. He also reportedly bought his title from a financially strapped Marie Auguste, Princess of Anhalt.

Dlisted reader, Secede, made an interesting point. If this douchebag is correct in being DHope's father then she is Paris Hilton's aunt! Hasn't this baby been through enough?! You see Zsa Zsa was married to Conrad Hilton, Paris Hilton's great-grandfather. They had a child, Francesca Hilton, who is Paris' great-aunt. If Anhalt, who is now married to Zsa Zsa, had a child that would make that child Francesca's step-sister, yes? And since your aunt's sister is also your aunt - THAT WOULD MAKE MAKE DANNIELYNN PARIS' AUNT! LOL!
OMG! I really need to get ANS off the brain!

The Broward County medical examiner just held a press conference. First of all, his accent was really thick so I had a hard time understanding his ass. Second of all, he said that her cause of death is unknown. He said further tests must be performed and it will take 3-5 weeks to determine. They have ruled out death caused by physical injuries such as being stabbed or shot. She had minor bruising to her back caused by a fall that occurred days ago in the bathroom. There was a small amount of blood in the stomach that was probably caused by terminal shock. They did not find any kind of pills in her stomach, however at this time they have not yet performed blood tests. He also reports that she was not dead that long before paramedics arrived. Her body was still warm, but she was dead on arrival when brought to the hospital.

He did say that they believe she did not die from ingesting a large amount of pills, because usually when someone dies of an overdose due to pills there is evidence in the stomach. He did not rule out an overdose though. He also confirmed a few old plastic surgery scars.

The police department is still performing an investigation, but they can report no crime has occurred. No illegal drugs were found in her room. There were prescription drugs found, but they won't reveal the names of those drugs. Star Magazine is reporting through sources that drugs included Valium, Vicodin, Provigil, Xanax and a high amount of Methadone. My favorites!

They would also not reveal why Anna had a nurse.

My comments couldn't have gone down at a worst time, I know. Thanks to all who sent me e-mails about your thoughts on the ANS Scandal and her death. Unfortunately, I can't answer or post all of you. My assistant, Jose Cuervo, quit this morning due to sexual harassment claims. I have compiled some of your comments after the jump for you to read.

My mother called me yesterday to tell me about Anna's death and I was truly heartbroken. I always loved Anna Nicole and thought she was so beautiful. I thought the same thing you did yesterday though, that this was the way she would have gone. I tried to imagine her old and it was just not possible. I'm glad that you've kept us posted on her death with as much dignity and pity as possible, as most of the other websites I read have been nothing but cruel to a woman who really didn't have the dream life we all imagined her to possess. Thank you for that. - Harmony

How can you not feel sadness for this woman? I mean seriously. Here is someone who so desperately wants to be famous, ostensibly in order to feel loved. She becomes famous, but still isn't loved. So she tries to increase her fame and numb her pain and ends up becoming a punchline instead and there's still no love, only leeches like Howard K. and Larry B. circling around her, fucking her figuratively and literally while pretty much not giving a shit about anything other than themselves. That's a pretty shitty life, no matter how much money you have. - Sharon

I feel as bad as you do. But really, there should be no mystery as to why we do....After all, she was young and a mother to an infant baby girl, who will never have the chance to know her. And I think it's safe to say that she died of a broken heart. I don't have children, but know friends and family who have lost a child and they can never describe the pain that comes with that kind of loss. Each of them wish it was their lives that should have been taken, instead. And no matter how many years pass, they never seem to fully heal. - Toni

Don't feel guilty - we all trashed Anna Nicole - but now all feel kind of bad for it... She was such a mess - but you had to feel bad for her, too.. I think Howard needs to be in jail - he gave Daniel too many drugs & now Anna - he knew it was only a matter of time & waited - it's not an OJ type of murder, but it is a preplanned, well thought out, premeditated murder, just the same.... All for money... - MirirrorMirrorontheWall

I am seriously like, in mourning of Anna Nicole..she is my Princess Di, since I am a trashy tranny wannabe hooker (mind you I am 100% female, besides the silicone, but my dream of dressing up as a tranny will come true!) I wore my black furry tranny boots in memorial of her, and the irony is that i tried out at a strip club on Saturday (the reason? i was in a drunken pill popping mess semi coma) and i was thinking, well this is how Anna Nicole got her start! I digress, I named my nameless cat Sugarpie, as well as popped a Kolodopin and poured some champagne (Andre' of course) for my homegirl. I am so beyond twisted. - Anonymous

I'm going to write something on this for my site, kylecollins.com, but the theory I have is that she was one of the first real casualties of the Information Age. She was completely consumed by the scandal-hungry public, and media. That consumption killed her. She's always been a mythic, if not iconic, figure; that's how she captured and kept our attention. Her first phase, back when she was a Guess model and sometime actress, was the "poor pretty girl makes good" myth. That myth really resonates, in many (if not all) cultures but especially here. Her life was about rises and falls. Highs and lows. I think we all "loved" her like we love our f'cked up friend: they're SUCH a mess that it's entertaining to watch, but only because we're sure that in the end that they'll make it through and clean up their act and will laugh along with us at how crazy they once were. That “certainty” - we’re reminded now - is foolish. There are some storms we cannot weather. The certainty that “good” will prevail is mythic, again as her life (and death) proves. I think how people die is a representation of how they live: Anna likely died all alone. With everyone interested, but nobody in her life really CARING. Just remember that people in her life could've intervened and saved her. We ALL knew she had a problem; it couldn’t have been more evident! But the people in her life didn't, and that's just sad. Plain and simple. - Kyle

I am all the way in Athens Greece and I knew about Anna's death via CNN before Rosie woke up! She needs to get her statements fresh because wow I can not believe she spoke about Anna on the View in the morning. She needs to be fired. - M

Am I the only one who sees that this golddigging whore-slut proves conclusively that marriage is what you make it-- that it's not gays who are a threat to the institution? - Hen

Shame on you, Michael. You posted at 11:29 am, Thursday,February 08/07 (and I quote): "They should just drop Vicodin pills on the ground leading Anna to a test lab. Dumbass would fall for it! And I'm sick of seeing her doped up ass on "The Insider"! If they are going to insist on interviewing her about everything, they should at least use captions. I can hardly understand what her slurred-ass is saying!" How can you slam Rosie for saying the same thing you'd already said? I read the news on DListed regularly, and I'm generally amused by your remarks, and glad to see you're not usually as mean-spirited as some others, but I am not impressed by your taking advantage of Rosie's unfortunate remark.

Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell, two supersupermodels from the 90s, came out to support Donatella Versace last night in Beverly Hills. Donatella and her brother Gianni were honored at the Rodeo Drive Awards. WTF is that? Anyway, you know Naomi is doing everything she can to not beat down Cindy. They both look hot, but Cindy isn't aging so well.

Zsa Zsa Gabor's current husband, Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt, thinks he could be the father of Dannielynn Hope. JESUS! You know executives at Lifetime and SoapNet are working overtime over this. He claims that he had a 10-year affair with Anna.

He said, "If you go back from September, she wasn't with one of those guys, she was with me."

He said that Anna begged him to marry her so she could become a Princess.

Freddy said that if Dani is turned over to Howard K. Stern of Larry Birkhead, he would file a lawsuit. My head is spinning. Someone send Dr. Phil in already!

Did Jennifer Lopez get some work? Is it just me or does she look completely different? It also looks like her skin sucked up any color Skeletor had in his face. She looks hot in a mob-wife sort of way. Here's the two at an event honoring Gianni and Donatella Versace in Beverly Hills last night.

Here we go! This is my 123,456,896th post about ANS and it's not even 1pm! So...ET is reporting that ANS and Howard K. Stern were going to officially get married at the end of this month. ET anchor Mark Steines says he was invited to the wedding to be held on February 23rd in the Bahamas. TMZ is reporting that 5 other people were staying at Anna's suite at the Hard Rock. Howard K. Stern, Anna's nurse (who is also her bodyguard's wife), her bodyguard, and two unidentified people were with her.

CNN is reporting that Anna tried to kill herself in the Bahamas by drowning herself. Howard found her and her bodyguard successfully gave her cpr.

It was also reported that before calling 911, Anna's nurse called Howard and he took a long time to return her call.

FINALLY...Larry Birkhead's lawyer just held a press conference after a judge ruled Anna's body must be preserved until February 20th for possible DNA testing to discover the paternity of Dannielynn Hope. Larry's lawyer is afraid that Howard will do a "bait and switch" of Dani's DNA so it doesn't match Larry's.

Scandal! Drama! Scandal! How soon do you think this whole saga is going to end up on "Law & Order?"

And Dlisted is totally going to change its name to AnnaListed today.
