SAY IT AIN’T SO–NOT MY ANNA NICOLE!

I was stunned and left speechless when I read yesterday that Anna Nicole Smith collapsed and died. I’ll admit it–I was a huge fan of hers and watched her reality show religiously. To me she was a modern version of ’60s publicity hounds Raquel Welch, Jayne Mansfield, and Edy Williams all rolled into one. Big, busty broads with minimal talent whose fame came from their outrageous antics and how well they photographed with their pictures splashed across magazines and newspapers.

When slim and trim (spa), Anna was the most gorgeous woman on this planet. She played the dumb blonde roll to the hilt but she was no dumb belle and this smart cookie made it to the Supreme Court–and won proving the joke was on us! I’ll miss reading about you Anna Nicole Smith. Now who is going to take care of her toothless hillbilly cousin!?!

R.I.P.
Actress/vocalist Barbara McNair passed away yesterday. This popular performer was a welcome presence on all the top variety, talk, and game shows during the Sixties and Seventies. Though I can’t name one song she was famous for, she had a style that made you take notice whenever she sang. Film buffs remember her as one of the nuns working with Dr. Elvis Presley in Change of Habit (1969), the sultry singer involved with jazz trumpeteer James Darren down Rio way in Jess Franco’s cult mystery film Venus in Furs (1969), and as Sidney Poitier’s wife in They Call Me MISTER Tibbs! (1970) and its sequel.

McNair’s last film was Neon Signs (1996) where she and the lovely Carol Lynley played feuding robbers on a crime spree throughout the Southwest desert in this very entertaining low-budget Thelma and Louise knock-off.
