Anna Nicole Smith Dead at 39
 

Anna Nicole Smith, the pneumatic blonde whose life played out as an extraordinary tabloid tale ? jeans model, Playboy centerfold, widow of an octogenarian oil tycoon, reality-show subject, tragic mother ? died Thursday after collapsing at a hotel. She was 39.

She was stricken while staying at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino and was rushed to a hospital. Edwina Johnson, chief investigator for the Broward County Medical Examiner's Office, said the cause of death was under investigation and an autopsy would be done on Friday.
