Quotes:

Howard K. Stern: [Anna, Howard and Kim are in a limo on their way to the Guess party and they are talking about what Anna should say if she is asked any questions by the press] Have you heard about the Israel/ Palestine situation?
Anna Nicole Smith: No.
Howard K. Stern: Well, it's where they are fighting and bombing each other. I think you should come out and say you support the Israelis.
Kim Walther: Maybe you should say you're neutral.
Anna Nicole Smith: I'm just gonna keep my mouth shut. I know nothing, about nothing. Oh yes.
[long pause]
Anna Nicole Smith: Oh yes.

My night with Anna Nicole

I recently took a bet from a friend that I couldn't watch the first season DVD set of The Anna Nicole Show all in one night. The bad news is I won this bet. I don't enjoy watching a mentally unstable or heavily medicated woman go about her life. I didn't enjoy her trip to Chipendale's. Nor her goin to see "Puppetry of the Penis". I could've lived without seeing Anna's toothless white trash cousin flashing multiple times AND I had no desire to see Margerette Cho make out with Anna. (although I always had Cho pegged as being like that). Oh did I mention that the DVDs are uncensored, so all of the above possibly scarred me for life. Also on the commentary for the Christmas special Anna herself says some of it is faked by the E! crew. My Grade: F
