Anna Nicole Smith’s Life And Death Examined In New Netflix Documentary
Anna Nicole Smith’s legacy endures.
The late model has been memorialized in Anna Nicole Smith: You Don’t Know Me, a Netflix documentary about her life. As seen in a video posted by the streaming service on April 17, the project sheds light on aspects of Anna Nicole that many were unaware of before her 2007 death, such as parenthood and her marriage to millionaire J. Howard Marshall.
“I want audiences to understand that Anna Nicole was a complex woman,” filmmaker Ursula Macfarlane told Tudum at Netflix. “She was a free-spirited exuberant woman who wanted to live life on her own terms and who wanted to be a good mother.”
However, as the filmmaker pointed out, Anna Nicole’s story “is also a cautionary tale about how the desire for the American dream can swallow you up and spit you out, blurring your self-image and making you lose sight of your authentic self.”
The documentary will include never-before-seen videos, home movies, and interviews with key persons from her close circle to help tell the story of the Playboy Playmate.
“I feel like many previous books and films about Anna Nicole twisted her narrative,” Ursula explained, “so I felt fortunate to have access to a wealth of audio and TV interviews, including personal phone calls with Anna Nicole.” “It’s as if she’s telling her own story in her own words.”
She also stated that having Anna Nicole Smith’s loved ones participate viewers to “get closer to her truth.”
Anna Nicole Smith’s legacy endures.
The doctor arrived 16 years after Anna Nicole died at 39 from a fatal mix of prescription medicines. Anna Nicole was bereaved after her 20-year-old son Daniel Wayne Smith died of an accidental drug overdose five months earlier while visiting the reality star and her newborn daughter Dannielynn Birkhead in the hospital.
Dannielynn has grown up away from the spotlight and under the care of her father, photographer Larry Birkhead, since Anna Nicole Smith’s death.
Larry celebrated Dannielynn’s 16th birthday in September with a poignant letter, applauding the adolescent for suffering “tragedy, turmoil, and a couple of baby tantrums.”
“Many people thought the odds were stacked against you, but maybe that was more geared towards me than you,” he captioned photographs of Dannielynn on Instagram over the years. “I’m so proud to be your father!”
Larry described their time together as a “wild ride,” adding, “Mom is looking down!”
Anna Nicole Smith: You Don’t Know Me releases on Netflix on May 16.

Jason Kelce Smashes Football Fan’s Phone
Retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce destroyed a Penn State football fan’s phone after the alleged heckler called his brother, Travis Kelce, a fag.
In now-viral footage published on X (previously Twitter) on Saturday, Nov. 2, the retired Philadelphia Eagles great was seen accompanied by football fans outside Beaver Stadium in State College, Pa., for the Penn State-Ohio State game.
As the individual capturing the tape lifted a fist to Jason, 36, and called his name for a fist bump, another man nearby hurled the homophobic slur at the retired Philadelphia Eagles star.
Hey, Kelce. How does it feel that your brother is a queer dating Taylor Swift?” the man questioned, referring to Travis, 34, who has been seeing Swift since 2023. Jason turned around seconds later, snatched the man’s phone, and crushed it to the ground.
“Looked like a Penn State student was getting in Kelce’s face for no reason,” the original X user who submitted the video remarked. “Wild scene in State College.”
“Kelce how does it feel that your brother is a f****t for dating Taylor Swift?”
Jason Kelce proceeded to slam this kids phone on the ground.

Additional footage on X shows Jason smashing the phone on asphalt before picking it up and walking away. The phone’s owner, wearing a Penn State hoodie at the time of the incident, was shown in many videos strolling closely behind Jason and recording him before the conflict occurred.
Another footage published on X, which appears to have been filmed after Jason shattered the man’s phone, showed the hooded Penn State supporter trudging through a mob to pick up his phone off the ground.
“Give me my phone, bro,” he seemed to say to Jason.
The NFL alum seized the gadget first, then stood in front of the man and asked, “Who’s the fag now?” Others appeared to interfere.
The incident occurred while Jason was at Beaver Stadium for an appearance on ESPN’s College GameDay. The Ohio State Buckeyes won Saturday’s game 20-13 over the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Hollywood Actress Teri Garr Passes Away at 79
Hollywood actress Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has passed away at 79. She died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer.
Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her “truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn’t have loved her more” and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: “Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better.”
Throughout her career, the performer, often known as Terri, Terry, or Terry Ann, seemed destined for show business from a young age.
Her father was Eddie Garr, a well-known vaudeville comic, and her mother was Phyllis Lind, one of the original high-kicking Rockettes at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Their daughter began dancing classes at six and was performing with the San Francisco and Los Angeles ballet companies by age fourteen.
She was 16 years old when she joined the road crew of “West Side Story” in Los Angeles, and she began starring in small roles in films as early as 1963.
In an interview from 1988, she described how she landed the role in “West Side Story.” After being rejected at her initial audition, she returned the following day dressed differently and was accepted.
Teri Garr, a comedian
Teri Garr then found steady work as a movie dancer, appearing in the chorus of nine Elvis Presley films, including “Viva Las Vegas,” “Roustabout,” and “Clambake.”
She has also appeared on various television shows, including “Star Trek,” “Dr. Kildare,” and “Batman,” and was a featured dancer on the rock ‘n’ roll music show “Shindig,” the rock concert performance “T.A.M.I.,” and a cast member of “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.”
Her breakthrough role was as Gene Hackman’s girlfriend in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 thriller The Conversation. This led to an interview with Mel Brooks, who offered her the Gene Wilder’s German lab assistant role in Young Frankenstein if she could speak with a German accent.
“Cher had this German woman, Renata, making wigs, so I got the accent from her,” Garr once said.
The film established her as a great comic performer, with New Yorker film writer Pauline Kael calling her “the funniest neurotic dizzy dame on screen.”
Her big smile and off-center appeal helped her land roles in “Oh, God!” with George Burns and John Denver, “Mr. Mom” (as Michael Keaton’s wife), and “Tootsie,” in which she played the girlfriend who loses Dustin Hoffman to Jessica Lange and discovers he has dressed up as a woman to revive his career.
A gift for spontaneous humor
Teri Garr, best known for comedy, has shown in films such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Black Stallion, and The Escape Artist that she can also tackle drama.
She had a gift for spontaneous humor, frequently playing David Letterman’s foil during early guest appearances on N.B.C.’s “Late Night With David Letterman”.
Her appearances grew so frequent, and the pair’s good-natured bickering so convincing that rumors of romantic involvement circulated for a while. Years later, Letterman acknowledged those early appearances with helping the program become a success.
During those years, Garr began to experience “a little beeping or ticking” in her right leg. It started in 1983 and expanded to her right arm, but she thought she could handle it. By 1999, her symptoms had gotten so bad that she saw a doctor and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
After disclosing her diagnosis, Garr became a spokesman for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, giving hilarious remarks at events in the United States and Canada.
