On February 8, 2007, a devastated Defamer was glued to CNN, following Dr. Sanjay Gupta and the rest of AnnaDeath 360° team as they offered breathless updates on the not-entirely-shocking (yet still pretty traumatic) loss of Anna Nicole Smith. And yet here we are, a full year later, and Hollywood seems doomed to repeat its trainwreck-glamorizing mistakes. Meanwhile, Smith's legacy carries on via the creepy gentleman-callers who dotted the love polygon that defined much of her life. Larry Birkhead, we well know through a series of soul-deadening The Insider exclusives, has been adjusting to life with his money-pooping paternity jackpot, most recently having plopped the toddler on a patch of grass he assured us was Anna Nicole's resting place, and successfully baby-wrangled his daughter into saying the word "mama" for their cameras.
Estate executor Howard K. Stern, meanwhile—whom you may or may not remember ignoring a child's pleas not to exploit a drug-addled Smith for a zombie-clown video—tells ET he's established the Anna Nicole and Daniel Wayne Smith Charitable Foundation: "It will benefit charitable causes that Anna Nicole supported during her life: children, the elderly, and the treatment and cure of AIDS. Hopefully it will grow, help more people each year, and eventually be headed by her daughter Dannielynn," an exciting possibility we're sure will come to pass just as soon as Birkhead figures out how to take a fair cut of whatever Stern's pulling off the bottom line.

Elton John and Bernie Taupin are still trying to figure out how to work "lived your life like a trainwreck of a whore" into version 2007 of Candle in the Wind.
Never knowin' who to cling to
When the methadone kicked in.
The first three takes she actually said "Mealticket" just like Daddy taught her.
Sure she supported children - she at least held both kids onceā¦
Sure she supported the elderly - banging a hoary gent is the best form of such charity...
Sure she supported AIDS projects - as she was ever fearful she'd caught something nasty from her time as a 2 bit stripper & sex show hag...
@scroll_lock: "Candle in the Wind': the freakin' 'White Christmas' of the boomers.
It is never going away...
