Breaking News - Anna Nicole Smith collapsed today in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida and was later pronounced dead at the hospital.

TMZ.com had reported that Smith collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and was rushed to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood just after 2 p.m. ET.

According to reports, Smith was found unresponsive in her hotel room.

“I can confirm that she is deceased. It’s as shocking to me as to you guys,” Smith’s attorney, Ronald Rale, told Reuters. “I don’t know anything further. Her lawyer and husband Howard K. Stern, obviously, is speechless and grieving.”

Eyewitnesses at the hospital report she was pronounced dead on arrival.

What’s so odd and mysterious about her death is Smith just won her lawsuit pertaining to the inheritance from her former husband J. Howard Marshall. This case went all the way to the US Supreme Court and Smith’s judgement was for her to to receive roughly $474 million. Also, Smith’s son, Daniel Wayne Smith, died a few months back at age 20 just days after the birth of Smith’s daughter. Pathologist Cyril Wecht said a lethal dose of methadone and antidepressants caused cardiac dysrhythmia, leading to his death.

Smith was also involved in a paternity suit regarding the parentage of her daughter, Danielynn, as well as other disputes, including some regarding a house she stayed at in the Bahamas around the time she gave birth.

Earlier this week, Smith was included in a class-action lawsuit against a company, TrimSpa, for which she had worked as a spokesperson. TrimSpa makes a product it claims leads to substantial weight loss. The lawsuit alleges the marketing of the product, TrimSpa X32, was false or misleading.

Either way you look at it, it’s always sad to see anyone die this early in life. I’m not a fan of hers in anyway and she definitely had her problems and wasn’t the “brightest bulb on the tree”, but it’s still sad to see someone go so young.

We’ll just have to wait and see over the next few weeks when the autopsy comes back. Her death could have easily been contributed to anything from depression (suicide), heart problems because of all the stress, an accident or even foul play. We’ll just have to wait and see.
