Once in a while, someone dies and you remember where you were and what you were doing when you heard the sad news. Thousands of people worldwide felt that way when they heard that the beautiful Anna Nicole Smith had suddenly died.


It was a "tragedy that shocked the nation," according to various TV and radio reporters. "The nation is in mourning," these same reporters claimed. She was only 39.


Her husband discovered her lying in bed unconscious and not breathing. Paramedics quickly arrived and tried to revive 1 her, but it was too late. Her body was taken to the morgue, where the coroner did an autopsy 2 the next day. No evidence of drugs was found. It might have been a heart attack, but further testing was necessary.


Anna was a cover girl, a model, and an actress. She married a billionaire who was 89 when she was only 25. The billionaire died a couple of years later.


Anna went to court to get her fair share of her husband’s wealth. The case was still unresolved when she died. Now it will continue after her death, because Anna has a new-born daughter.
