Anna Nicole Smith's former hairdresser claims that his former client had a history of intense stomach pain that caused her to "black out," and would often pop pills to reduce the agony.
In an exclusive conversation with TMZ, Daniel DiCriscio, who had worked with Smith since 1994, said that he became aware of Smith's pain problems nearly two years ago, when Smith "passed out" during a haircut. DiCriscio says he remembers Smith complaining of "sharp pains in her abdomen" and having trouble standing up. When she awoke, DiCriscio claims that Anna rummaged through her purse in search of pain pills, and "pulled out one odd-looking pill and said 'this one must be Daniel's'," referring to her son.
Both Anna and Daniel died under mysterious circumstances involving various medications. Daniel was found dead in the hospital room in which Anna Nicole had given birth to her daughter Dannielynn just three days earlier. He had a combination of seven drugs in his system, including multiple antidepressants and methadone.

I can't wait for HKS to get his ass booted out of the "mansion" for failure on the part of ANS to pay the mortgage and sign the promissory note. These two were well known by luxury hotels as deadbeats.
Dear,TMZ,
From what I've observed Anna's friend JACKIE spoken on Lary King and other tv shows. Jackie has motive, I too, do not believe that she is Anna's friend. Jackie hates Howard because Howard put her crazy brother behind bars, This crazy woman is out to get revenge.
And also, have anyone looking into the fact that Anna had recently had a large TATOO of her son on her back, which may have cause the high fever and perhaps that lead to her death. I think, the TATOO parlor needs to be check out. To me, Howard seems to look out and protected Anna best interest in life and in death.
I always thought of Anna Nicole as an airhead Marilyn Monroe wannbe. I actually thought she was a fake. However, I do think her life is tragic. Whenever you have so much negativity surrounding you, it has to have a negative effect on your life somehow. When she became involved with her new beau(the lawyer) and had her son with her, I was happy for her. I grieved for her when she lost her son the day her baby was born and I grieved for her and still do now that she is gone. I think it is just a media CIRCUS surrounding her life as well as death. She was a beautiful woman who never had peace in her life. Maybe she has it now. And incidently, I believe she deserved the money from her ex-husband's estate. He looked happy in the pictures and so did she. It is just a shame that so much controversy exists at the time of her death. I also think she should be buried by her son. Where has her mother been all these years. And since when does anyone's wishes trump the deceased's burial wishes. All this crap is ridiculous. Mom just wants a piece of that pie!!
I think Anna Nicole was a drug abuser. that is why she was taking methodom it is also use for drug users.
Howard Stern Used Anna and now using The Baby to get all Anna money him and his family.
Anna didn't like her mother because her mothe was against her using drugs and the company she kept. She was also a hot headed person.
Zsa's hubby is the father of Danilynn she looks just like him.....I know the saying goes "mama's baby, papa's maybe" her eyes are blue and close set just like his............just wait, the DNA will prove it. Remember you heard it from me.
1. Howard K. Stern looks like a heroin addict. Is that what Anna Nicole was on and when she got pregnant she had to have methadone?
2. Why is everyone so upset that she hasnt been buried? It took HER three weeks to bury poor Daniel.
3. Her mother should do the right thing and give up any right to her body because she KNOWS what Anna Nicole would NOT want. Anna should be buried in the Bahamas beside Daniel since she chose to bury him there.
4. They should quit fighting over Annas body and start to focus on the child. The sooner Dannielynn's bio father is known the sooner she will have (hopefully) a chance at a normal life. She has lost one of her main caregivers in her mother and apparently also the Nanny. This is VERY hard on a baby.
5. Since her will left everything to Daniel and he is dead, the Courts should take over and give everything to Dannielynn. She now has an attorney ad litem who should be focused on this. The DNA tests should be done IMMEDIATELY so everyone will know where they stand. WHOEVER is the father whether its Birkhead or Howard K. should be the guardian of the estate of the baby UNLESS he is found unfit. Of course if she is Howard Marshalls baby from some frozen sperm....wow! What a story! Oh, and grandma should NOT have custody but visitation rights are appropriate in this situation.
6. OK off my soapbox.
If Anna was so in love with her baby and cared about her why did she do drugs? Etertainment need to stop putting Anna and Howard Up on a peddle about how much they love Daniel and the baby.Howard probably gave them to her. Also that bodyguard.
YOU KNOW I JUST WISH PEOPLE WOULD JUST LET ANNA BE PUT TO REST BY HER SON,,,,,LET HER MOTHER HAVE THE BODY ,,JUST MAKE SURE SHE IS LAYED TO REST BY HER SON,,YOU KNOW HOWARD STERN COULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO BAD TO STAND BY HER SIDE FOR ALL THEM YEARS,,,I SEE GOOD IN HIM,,I THANK HE DID LOVE HER VERY MUCH I DON,T THANK HE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER DEATH MAY HER SOUL REST IN PEACE BECAUSE SHE DID NOT GET ANY HERE ON EARTH
Howard was a gold digger from the start.Hopefully soon there will answers of the tragic deaths surrounding Daniel & Anna....
Hey - I did WATCH the ANNA Nicole Show - she had a asst. I think her name was Kimmie - What ever happened to her - she may have MORE infor. on ANS -
Has she commented on this WHOLE Damn Mess.
Nygard's friend of friend of ANNA:
Anna wants to be buried by her son....no matter what - She stated her intentions over and over...She just wants to be with Daniel. This is an absolute desire of hers.....The courts are so slow in making any good decisions - I hope the Judge's can assist her in at least letting her lay to rest by her son. It's too bad HKS didn't take drastic steps in assisting Anna to get off drugs after losing her son from drug overdose. He could have talked some sense into her.....HKS must be on methodone himself in order to allow her to kill herself -- How safe is the baby with someone on Meth and who know's what else. I think the Courts should shorten hearings and make a mandatory order to move to paternity before the baby is emotionally torn more than She already is going to have to endure. The grandma is not an option......The father has rights and thank God that the father seems to be stepping up..I think it's Larry Birkhead....he seems sincere enough, and NOT on drugs or having alternative motives, as well as it seems He also loved Anna and can let her daughter, Danielynn know how sweet and loving of a person She really was....This little girl is absolutely gorgeous and it's going to be fun to have America watch her grow and up and be taken care of....I hope She gets all that money and I hope her influences in life make for a different path than that of drugs.
Take the DNA and find out who the babys father is. Give the baby to her biological father. Arrest Howard Stern. Find out why he would give anna pills and not try to get her off the pills if he really loved her. I firmly believe that Larry Birkhead is the babys father. This is all a bit ridiculous. For heavens sakes, bury Anna Nicole. Let her next of kin have her and bury her in Texas. Then take some of the money and bring daniels body back to texas and bury him beside his mother. At least the baby can visit both graves. Marsha N.
Someone should get Moe, her bodyguard to tell more- I bet he saw plenty and he seems a nice man who liked Anna.
I don't understand why both Anna and Stern had to leave the baby and go pick up that boat when neither of them was sailing it back to the Bahamas- people were paid to do that. She had just had two minor surgerical procedures, one including breast surgery, and she had flu symptoms and a fever of 105. If Stern was so concerned about her, he would have put her in the hospital. Packing someone that sick in ice in the casino hotel is second-rate care. And where was Stern when she was in her death throes? In a baseball cap in the casino having some fun while she was without him earlier by the pool- then alone and ill in her bed. Where was that nurse who was supposed to be watching her all the time? I am also surprised, given Daniel's death, that Anna would have thought to leave her baby with new friends and leave the country.
Who has Methadone next to the butter in a bedroom refrigerator? Anna's doctor sounds on about a par with Elvis' doc- both were to blame for medicating these people to death while their so-called "friends and lovers" stood by and watched. Stern should have signed Anna into rehab and got her grief counselling after Danny's death if he loved her so much.
Thank you Angel, I too feel that Anna was a human with problems, and no different than many others except her problems were throw into the spotlight.
She did not live a so called clean life, but she still has many people that love her and should not have to hear all the negatives so people will watch their program..It is all for the ratings,as I can see that the hosts of these programs are only concerned about getting people to watch their program instead of the competitions.

I heard an attorney mention on the news that the burial plots in the Bahamas are in stacks of four under the ground. If Anna Nicole bought two, two other plots would be in her section.
