Newsgasm: Daniel You're a Star Edition
- In sad news, Anna Nicole Smith's son Daniel has died suddenly at the age of twenty. No stingrays were involved. [AP]
- Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas has revealed to Time Magazine that she was once a meth addict. When asked how she copes with her post-addiction impulses, she says, "I have an hour and a half of performing every night and improvising. If there's a rafter, I can climb right on." Because climbing on rafters is what people on meth never do. [AP]
- Prepare to have your mind blown. Despite what your instincts may have led you to believe, 'Til Death is not as popular as football. [Variety]
- And speaking of 'Til Death, Virginia Heffernan amusingly describes the "whiteface" plight of this ill-advised sitcom. It's always bad when the review is funnier than the show. [New York Times]
- Big Brother scandal! Will and Danielle have been spotted doing karaoke outside of the jury house! And now they might be kicked off the jury! To think, an entire summer ruined by an impromptu performance of "Gloria." [Reality Blurred]
- And since it's September 11th, the Los Angeles Times makes a scathing assessment of how pop culture has changed over the past five years. For instance, back in 2001, the number three movie in the country was Jeepers Creepers, but two weeks ago, it was Little Miss Sunshine! The comparison is staggering! [LA Times]

this is only a guess, but do you think he died of shame?

God only knows what this boy had to live through in his young life. Can you imagine Anna Nicole being your mother? Poor kid.

Dude, that kid was her life, you could tell through her crazy ditziness that she worshipped Daniel. I worked with her a few times and her kid was there.
I am sure he had it rough growing up, somewhat without a father and money (which a LOT of kids have gone through) but that's really mean to say he died of shame. I like anna nicole, she adored him, he adored her and she is probably fucking beside herself with grief.

Why is she giving birth in The Bahamas? They filming a new Trimp-Spa pregnancy ad there?

I agree with James Wood (#4). It's obvious from the media reports that Anna Nicole loved her son a lot and to lose him at the same as her daughter's birth must be awful for her. She's a crazy, slutty gold-digger, yes, but she's still a mother. She must be beside herself with grief, not to mention having that reminder of one child's death surround your other child's birth. Have a little sympathy.

Daniel Smith seemed like a good kid. May he rest in peace.
