Jett Travolta`s Autopsy

HerBadMother — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 21:34:00 GMT

Jett Travolta`s autopsy is being performed in the Bahamas this afternoon by two pathologists.

Ordinarily, autopsies are conducted by a single local coroner, but in this case, a special US-certified coroner has been flown in to join the Freeport coroner.

According to E! Online, the dual reports are intended to ``ensure accuracy and provide a more thorough analysis of what transpired last week.``

Based on existing reports from Travolta family representatives, the unofficial cause of death was a blow to the head, sustained when Jett Travolta fell and struck his head on a bathtub during a seizure. The official cause of death will be determined by the pathologists, and could possibly be released by the end of the day.

More news as it`s released.

Is Larry Birkhead, Like, Totally Gay?

HerBadMother — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 18:53:00 GMT

Perez Hilton thinks so. He's reporting that Anna Nicole Smith's former bodyguard has more or less confirmed it in an interview with Access Hollywood:

According to Big Moe, Anna told him that due to Birkhead's "lifestyle" there would be no strings attached. "What's his lifestyle?" Access Hollywod's reporter asked. "Well, she told me that, you know, he was a homosexual," Big Moe said. "She knew deep down that he didn't want to be with her."

I'd chalk this up to wishful thinking on Perez's part, but hey - he got the story from Access Hollywood, so.

Either way, who cares? He's not really a catch for either sex. Well, maybe for Perez (oooh, snap!)

Heath Ledger Mourned by Hundreds

Sassy Smith — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 12:02:00 GMT

Hundreds of mourners joined Heath Ledger's family Saturday morning local time at a memorial in Australia. Michelle Williams and Cate Blanchett were also there.

Kim, Heath's dad said, "It's a pretty sad time. We're finding it difficult to cope." About the funeral: "The funeral will be very, very private. There will be only 10 people there, which is my immediate family and nobody else."

Michelle and Heath's family arrived in a fleet of black BMWs. Williams was wearing dark glasses and holding the hand of Kate, Heath's sister. His parents and other family members arrived shortly after. Matilda was not seen.

It's reported about 300 people attended the memorial - including model Gemma Ward, Bryan Brown and Australian Rules football players Ben Cousins and David Wirrpanda, who were all friends of Heath's.

Larry's Love Note To Anna Nicole

HerBadMother — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 03:54:00 GMT

Larry Birkhead has posted a memorial - with a little message from him and Dannielynn - to Anna Nicole over at his website. It's basically a sweet little personal message and, um, the picture shown above.

I don't know. I mean, it's sweet and all to memorialize your dead former lover and mother of your child, but that picture? Just a tad creepy as a death memorial, and all the more so with a toddler's name signed to it.

I mean, couldn't he find a pic that was a little less drugged-up-Playboy-centerfold, and a little bit more, I don't know, wakeful mother?

I know; it's the height (depth) of crass meanness to criticize someone's memorial, but still. I'm a bit creeped out by it. Can't help it. Sorry.

RIP, Anna. RIP.

Anna Nicole Smith: One Year After Her Death

Sassy Smith — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 22:02:00 GMT

Anna Nicole Smith died one year ago today - and yet, she's still in the headlines, still thought of, obviously by her friends and family, but the general public too.

She was a larger than life icon at times, but was often thought of as being "famous for being famous." She modeled, posed for Playboy, did a few movies, some television shows, was featured in a few music videos, had her own reality TV program, married some really, really old billionaire, was sometimes a trainwreck in the things that she did, battled her weight in the public eye and yet, she still managed to endear people to her.

Perhaps she was a bit misguided at times, sometimes came off like a bit of a nut, but I will say, she was a woman who loved her children dearly. She was predeceased by her son Daniel, who passed away in her hospital room in September of 2006 - just three days after his baby sister, Dannielynn was born.

Most say that Anna Nicole died the day that her son died, or at least her will to really live. She began (or continued) to self medicate and died of "combined drug intoxication."

She left behind her sweet baby Dannielynn, who's father is Larry Birkhead. I hope that Mr. Birkhead gets his act together and stops exploiting his little girl. She will most likely have to endure the public eye when she's grown just because of who her parents are, particularly her mother, so why not let her have a few years without Entertainment Tonight following her?

Rest in peace, Anna, rest in peace.

Heath Ledger Died of Natural Causes?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 02:41:00 GMT

TMZ is reporting that actor Heath Ledger may have died of natural causes - although only 28, it's certainly possible. They said:

It sounds strange, but sources intimately connected with the Heath Ledger investigation tell TMZ it's possible the actor died of natural causes.

The reason they think that -- it's now appearing that the level of toxicity (from medication) in Ledger's system was low enough that it may not have caused his death. These sources say Heath's heart stopped. It could have been a heart attack but it's not certain, at least not yet. Although it's bizarre that a 28-year-old could die of natural causes, it happens.

I hope when the full toxicology reports come back, that there are answers, obviously for his family's sake. It would be awful to have to live with the uncertainly of what really happened especially for his loved ones.

'Mystery Son' of Brad Renfro

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 13:05:00 GMT

Who is Brad Renfro's son? The obituary for Renfro, who was laid to rest yesterday, lists Y Renfro as one of the actor's survivors. However, no reference to the actor having children are listed in any of his biographies.

In another discovery after his death, the L.A. County Cornor discovered a freshly-inked tattoo across his back that read, "F*CK ALL Y'ALL" which is being interpreted as an indication of his dark mood in his final days.

Renfro was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment last week. The cause of death has not yet been determined.

Susan Sarandon Talks About the Death of Brad Renfro

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 15:05:00 GMT

Actress Susan Sarandon, who starred with Brad Renfro in 1994's The Client, is speaking out about the 25-year-old actor who was found dead in his home on Tuesday.

"I had the pleasure of working with Brad when he was eleven in The Client. It was obvious to everyone that he was the sweetest, most incredibly gifted young actor to come along for some time. My heart goes out to the family for their tragic loss."

The cause of Renfro's death is still unknown, but the young actor had spent years battling drug and alcohol addiction. The Los Angeles County Coroner's office says the autopsy will be done today, but toxicology results normally take several weeks.

Pimp C Funeral

Sassy Smith — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 17:36:00 GMT

Pimp C remembered today by family and friends. His funeral was to be held at the Robert A. Bowers Civic Center in his southest Texas hometown of Port Arthur. The funeral was open to the public, but the burial is limited to close family and friends.

Pimp C was found dead on December 4th in the Mondrian Hotel in L.A. He was only 33. Officials said the rapper, died in bed and no signs of foul play were found. Autopsy and toxicology reports have not been made available yet.

The rapper, who's real name is Chad Butler, was one half of rap duo Underground Kingz. Just this year, UGK snagged their first No. 1 album, partly because of the single "International Player's Anthem (I Choose You), which featured Outkast. Two days after Pimp C's passing, the single gave UGK their first Grammy nomination in the "Best Performance by a rap duo or group" category. RIP Pimp C.
