Lets get to the point then why dont we? Although I am sure we all feel bad for you with your daughter, we will not see you as “poor little Vickie” because guess what sweetie….we all have lost someone dear to us. And yes, speaking your mind is a wonderful right we have here in the USA, but I live in the south and down here we have something called Hospitality and kindness…. so we dont go around trashing people we dont know. Our opinions on Willa are based on her own actions and something we SAW with our own eyes and HEARD with our own ears, not something we mearly assumed based on a minuet amount of info. I bet you had one hell of a night when you SAW Anna shoot up on her butt!!!!!! Wow, your something special:P. How do you know that her doctor didnt give her an antibiotic or other medication that caused her to get infected… My husband is a nurse for our local VA retirement home, and YES one lone shot can get infected if the conditions are right. It doesnt mean she has been using the injection site more than once. And, I thought I pitied Willa… well now I pity you as well sweetie. You need to seek therapy for your anger. Your life has to be so sad if you go through it with so much hate in your heart. Now to address the dispatcher and officer comment..lol.. I dont have to ask you how you know, because what you know is wrong. Once again you based your statement on not enough research or information. You may have experience with a PD, but you obviously dont have experieince in all of them to know what happenes and how each Department is run. You must be from way up north in a big city where the police stations have a one task role for each person hired. I live in a small town where the budget doesnt have enough money to throw away on hiring lazy people to do one task. We WORK here honey. I am a dispatcher. We usually have two or three dispatchers in the office area at a time, so we all do whats needed at the time. Our PD is in the same building as our city hall and our courthouse. All of our Firemen are volunteers except the Fire Chief. We have one Chief Of Police and 15 officers, only ten of the officers being full time. As a dispatcher we sign people in to court and we sign visitors in to see the inmates which we personally take to the visitations rooms. My role within my PD is not only to answer 911 calls although that is a big part of it, but to also run the NCIC (National Crime Information Center) also known as the FBI information sytem. I also give the inmates thier meds (yes that means contact with them firsthand), I take them thier food that is donated by the local hospital cafeteria, I also let them out into the yard for smoke breaks as well as make out warrants and fingerprint inmates and go with the officers to pick up any female inmates from other towns close by, due to us not having any female officers. I take payment towards fines and i even work hands on with the local bailsmen to help them with thier paperwork. I am certified so i stamp warrants and do other legal verifications. I also have to pat down and search offending females, and for the rest of you reading.. let me just say…yuk! lol. I go places in my job i would never wish another female to have to go. Poeple hide things in all manner of places. And the inmates that have proven themselves to be truly trying to do better get the privlage of cleaning the offices and dispatch room and patrol cars, as well as escorting the other inmates one at a time for thier showers. We pay those lucky inmates a small wage that goes toward thier fines. Heck, lol, most of the inmates we all know personally due to it being a small town. Or we at least know thier mothers, lol. Our local PD has been run like this for many years and we have a spotless track record of no escapes and an even better record of drug busts within our area. So Vickie… dont tell me how i do my job or once again assume things you have no clue about. In a small town we all band together to do our jobs and its a family atmosphere as well as a professional one. Also my father in law is an officer, not only an officer.. he is our Police drug task force officer.(yes, thats right Vickie, a real police man!) He works at the same PD as I, so lets just say I get first hand experiences to what goes on within the world of drug offenders ( what kind of people use, and what reasons people use and the surpising fact of who, which are often people you would never expect to use drugs). So the point is.. yes I do see and have hands on experience with the inmates and I do see the sad side of life first hand. And I dont enable them to do drugs.. I work to help them know there is a better way to life. Why do you think i would work so hard to stop drug use and in this type of job if i was enabling people to do them? What they do after i give them information on how to get help with thier addictions is up to them.
And Dolly? O.O common… think! How often do you actually see her in an interview? Anna also has interviews where she isnt under the influence of pain or meds, granted theres not many, but if you compare them to how many times you have seen dolly interview or go public, its about the same. Dolly has stated that shes doesnt do many interviews due to the pain she endures as well as the fact she doesnt like to stay in the public eye. So lets think about this…If you compared the times youve seen Anna to the times youve seen Dolly, then guess what? Common, think real hard honey…. you can do it… We can figure that maybe its due to the fact we dont see Dolly much when she is in pain and we see Anna all the time in pain and trying to be in the public eye as opposed to Dolly. You have to think things out honey, not just make asumptions based on the first info you get. Things are not as black and white as that. I furthermore have nothing else to say to you. If there is one thing ive learned in my life and job.. its that if someone doesnt want to see theres a problem within themselves, they wont till thier ready too. And you my dear seem like your no where close to ready. So theres no point in arguing with you. So from here on out you can say what ever hateful things you like.. i will pay no attention to your ramblings. My advice would be to seek professional help for your pain and suffering over the loss of your baby girl. And after that.. try to find it in your heart to go beyond that anger and find peace so that you can live happily. And to everyone else, thanks for the nice comments :). And Support. And i look forward to reading more about your opinions.

I’ll take it as a confirmation that you are exactly what I just said. Any further statements from you only solidifies my analysis. Nice try, but I have no reason to be offended by someone as shallow as you. ;-)

My Daughter was killed in a car wreck! or can’t you read. So you need to watch it lady! Weere do you come from! What are you some big fat cheese burger eating Anna wanna be! you sound like it! No my kids are all college grads thank you what about yours? Or are you really Annas Mama or cousin? KMI Eve

Vicki, I figured that is why you were posting the hateful things that you did; because you are a Willa/Mandy supporter and are trying to make her out to be a saint when she’s been filmed saying the ugly things that she has. To me you are just as trashy as she is. Maybe you are related to her and/or just a delusional fan?

You are not speaking the truth about anything relating to ANS especially Willa/Mandy. Only God knows what happened in her life. You should not be so judgemental of someone you do not know. You siding with a trashy wannabe actress just shows that you have poor taste and little respect for the feelings of others. And since you have been attacking posters here, it only leaves the door open for others to address your statements.

With all of the trash you’ve been posting here, I would not doubt as to why your daughter did what she did; because of the way that you think and behave. If you treated her as poorly as your posted statements here, it’s no wonder why she made the choices that she did. Apparently you have never heard of unconditional love. That is unfortunate for your poor daughter to have been subjected to a mother like you. Willa/Mandy and hateful people like you should not be breeding.

Eve:
Whatever, people just don’t appreciate other people speaking the truth and thats all willa did! Last time I checked this was America and people could speak the truth! I live in the real world! But I can understand how thin skinned some people are.

The sad fact is this actress will star in a role that will bomb at the box office because other than a few like you who are willing to take up for ANS nobody else really cares! Have a good Life!

Vicki, would it kill you to try to stay on topic about the interview? It seems that you keep trying to sway the discussion away from Willa/Mandy to focus your hatred on ANS. I think I am not alone in realizing how much you disliked ANS. How did you feel about the interview? It seems that you also still have a lot of unresolved issues with drug addiction based on the comments that you have been saying in this thread. If you need contacts for a good therapist or discussion group, I will be happy to recommend some for you. I hope things can be resolved for you. Good luck.

Krisan:
It’s people just like you who enable DRUG ADDICTS! Get more statistics! You have no clue really apparently how many women are raped, Girls molested by family members even. They dont use it to become an addict.

No body on the planet has bigger implants than Dolly Parton! That lady also suffers from chronic Back pain. You don’t see her so screwed up she can’t speak! Read the autopsy report! She was injecting in her Butt! Thats how she got the infection in her BUTT!

She had been a drug addict since her teens! And she was a prescription drug abuser not a junkie. But no better! an Addict is an Addict!

Any woman who would do the drugs she did while carring the gift of life in her womb should be sterilized! Ask any woman who would love to have a child! By the way a dispatcher and police officer are two diffrent things. You take the call and are never in contact with inmates or criminals, ask me how I know that? If you did you would have a diffrent opinion. Don’t go there

You also did not read the same will I read, I could be wrong, but Number 1 it never went to probate so it is not worth the paper it was written on!and two she left it all to Daniel no charities. And she did kill herself she took the drugs and abused them so even if she did not mean to do it. It was by her own hand that it happened. And by the way Respect is earned not given.

I do not make excuses for drug addicts Betty Ford Clinic takes them all. Pain get them implants out! Also her autopsy report said other than that she was healty! SHE WAS A DRUG ADDICT! PERIOD! you can paint it any color you want to but the truth is the truth.

I call it like I see it Sorry! I live in the real world were a drug addict is an addict they come in all shapes, sizes, classes, financial back grounds, holly wood!

Bottom line if she had wanted to get clean she would have! Ask any rehab addict will tell you!

But I am sure you are really sweet and I suggest you work more closely with drug addicts to get a better understanding of how they work. I already have!

YOU GO KRISAN!!!! you said it all we’re
done..krisan said it all.

Ohh.. good lord people. How many people out there think they have found justifiable reasons to be so judgmental to Anna? No never mind.. dont answer that, lol.
Answer me this? How many of you actually know what its like to have stardom come at you so fast it makes your head spin? How many of us can actually say we know what its like to be in the public eye and have everything we do scrutinized? How many of us actually have to put up newspapers in our windows to block out Paparazzi? I for one can not relate. I can only imagine. Imagine how hard it was to have her life under a microscope and every mistake (common.. dont lie.. you make em too) judged by the whole world. Anna was abused as a child, she admits it in an interview. Thats only a glimps into what may have been a brutal childhood for her. That kind of childhood could have created a person who doesnt feel as though they deserved respect. That may be the cause of some her “not so mild actions”. Anna was in constant pain, and although thats not an excuse to become an addict to the pain meds, it does explain how she could have gotten overwhelmed by the pain and the worlds eye. I suffer from chronic pain as well, and some of those interviews it was clear she was in pain. Why dont you do an interview while your in pain and see if you look normal?
Vickie… you said “you did not know Anna Nichole” in your post. Well did you know her? You seem to be making plenty of accusations and judjments on her, so you must have known her personally, right? Ummmmm, no, i doubt you did. Im truly sorry your life has been unkind to you over your daughter(no one should have to face that), but it has left you bitter and judjmental of things you know nothing about. Your comment on her using needles was appalling. How many photos have you seen of her where she had track marks? Or even ones where she seemed to be hiding her skin? Lets face it, she loved risque clothing. If she had track marks, you would have seen them. I work for a Police Department as a dispatcher and believe me… ive seen my share of track marks. And ive also seen my share of hard core drug users. She wanst one. She was a person in daily pain that was determined to make the world think she wasnt hurting and to carry on with a active lifestyle. And to do that she needed meds. The fact she got hooked on the meds is only a testament to how hard her life truly was for her. She also tried to kick the habit many times. But the pain in her life wasnt going away and always led her back to the meds. And her addictive nature always led her to misuse them. So unless you know firsthand what led her to misuse the meds she was on and what influences she had in her life, then you have no right to judge her.
Just as Micheal said.. Anna was into animal rescue and was a member of Peta. She refused to wear real fur and made it plain and clear on her standings toward animal abuse. She also did work for the Aids foundation and a few others, and even supported a few charities in her Will. So it looks like you need to do your research since your so eager to make judgement.
And i believe the main reason none of the other main hollywood actresses wanted the role is because it is way to early for there to even be a movie of her life. Those people that actually did know her in life have barely had enough time to morn her enough to even cope in thier own lives, much less see her recreated on screen. I do not believe it has anything to do with a lack of respect for Anna. Those actresses KNOW what its like to be in the public eye. I honestly believe they understand Anna better than any of us ever could. And you seem so certain that she killed herself instead of it being an accidental overdose like the investigators and Police claimed. How do you know? Were you there? Did you play a role in the investigation? Umm, i doubt that as well. I think you need to turn some of those judgments your so generously throwing around back on yourself.
And as Eve said, the point of this is the lack of respect Willa showed in her interview (which i did watch instead of reading it). I was a fan of Anna’s before she passed. And although i agree she made some not so wise decisions in her life, i still respect her for the love she showed to her children and her family. I respect her for the love she shared for her fans. I respect her for trying to make it in a brutal world the best way she knew how. I however.. do not respect someone who is willing to make money and try to reserect her career off of a person who has recently passed and that she holds no respect for. I have watched Willa’s progress on this film on Extra and Entertainment Tonight as well as personal online research. And i am still appalled by her attitude. Did she honestly think buying a pink couch would make her be able to “channel” Anna better? O.O Lets just pretend for a minute that Willa can actually act well… What makes her think that people are going to want to watch a movie that for one has been created to soon, and for second the actress has no respect for the person she is trying to recreate. Willa is trying now to act as if she wants to truly show Anna in a good way.. now that her past interviews have shown her true colors. Its too late… the truth has been displayed before us all. Willa said in an interview that she was glad she could do the movie, so Anna’s daughter could see what her mother’s life was like. And see “the truth”. Well, i hope someone is there to tell her that the person that played her mom’s role was disrespectful and was only in it for the money and fame. I dont know Willa and all i have to go buy is her interviews on the Tv and internet, so i cant pass judgment on what type of person she truly is. But based on what i have seen, i pity her. She seems to have lost the ability to feel empathy. She also shows she isnt willing to truly try to take on Anna’s persona to the best of her ability. So what? she watches some Anna interviews to be able to copy Anna’s babydoll voice and the way she speaks. So what if she went and bought a pink couch? lol When i see her gain the weight instead of wearing a fat suit, and when i stop hearing her say shes gonna have to eat a ton of burgers because the fat suits making her skinnier… And untill she goes to the people in Anna’s life to ask them to help her get to know Anna a bit better so she can portray her to the best of her ability, i refuse to watch her attempt to portray Anna.

I love hockey and hockey players/fans/etc… However, I must say this… Mike Modano and Willa Ford most definitely deserve each other. I have been to dinner with several players/wives/etc… Having worked in the main office and Mike is a very rude, boorish, unkind man.. I have personally witnessed him making fun of people at other tables, comments and become loud, obnoxious and drunk… Ed Belfour at least when drunk was never unkind to other people, Mike needs to grow up and with his choice of a bride, I can see he clearly HAS NOT.

Jealous of a drug addict get serious! We can all have boob jobs and plastic surgery, some bleached hair, but like I said you can’t buy class! She had no class! Anthony.

I will always believe her lifestyle killed her and her Son. It’s a shame especially for Daniel, so young. I don’t have sympathy for her. I am not a fan of someone who was so irresponsible. I would have thought after Daniels Death and the birth of her daughter she would have woke up and smelled the coffee and tried to get help.

She was also self centered and selfish and dishonest. She ran off to the bahamas to deny poor Larry his rights to the point she put another mans name on the baby’s birth certificate.

She used men for whatever they could give her, Money, houses, a child. She was a gold digger. She tried to screw a man who tried to help her out of that home in the bahamas. Every man who cared for her it cost dearly. No poor Anna , she brought most of her hardships on herself.

I could have married for money, but I choose love instead. My husband and I are very financially secure. Money, Homes, Boats and Cars all of I have. But that does not make you happy. So I am far from JEALOUS! I am a beautiful Intelligent Brunette with a modeling background. I work in the Advertising industry so I make $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ I don’t depend on a man or my looks for that ;)

Anna knew she was going to have another child why did she not provide for her? Because she was so screwed up on drugs to think about it?

If you think she was so respected? why do you think none of the other Hollywood leading ladies wanted the role? or attended her funeral.

My heart goes out to anyone who has lost a child, I know that pain too well and I would not wish it on anyone not even Anna. But the truth is the truth, thats all I am saying.

I have had drug addicts in my own family and as long as you make excuses for them they continue to use and eventually overdose, or kill someone else.

Anna was no different. She could have gotten the best help there was available but she did not want it and it cost her her life. Now everyone else is left behind as usual to clean up her mess and defend her and do the right thing. What a mess! Thanks Anna!

As for the previous comments about Anna Nicole being recognized as a saint but not living up to her reputation is completely WRONG. Anna not only was an animal rights activist but also contributed MUCH of her money (which at the time she struggled for; keep in mind she has not inherited the hundred of millions from her late husband yet) to charities for abused children. Anna’s love of animals was so powerful and strong that PETA, the leading organization for protecting animals issued a statement after Anna’s death, and I quote, “PETA is extremely upset by the news of Anna Nicole Smith’s untimely death. She was a great friend to the animals and used every opportunity to speak out agaisnt senseless cruelty….It is a tragedy when anyone passes away before their time, but with Anna Nicole Smith, animals have lost a true hero and PETA has lost a good friend. We will miss her.”
So, before you judge and make your comments, get your facts straight. It’s so funny how much people know about Anna, but yet bad mouth her. If you know so much obviously that means you’re so intrigued by her life. It’s pure jealousy, like everyone else in Anna’s life envied her and its ashame that even after her death people are still bad mouthing her. I truly felt that I had to take time out of my schedule to post this because it is necessary. If everyone is “so tired” of Anna Nicole news than why go around talking about her? Your ignorance is pathetic.

There is nothing left to say, everyone has said it brillantly. But I had to add something. How horrible of her. I was going to see the movie but now I hope she(Willa) will just fall on her face.

Vicki, the reason people are upset is because of the the things that Mandy/Willa said during her interview. Yes it seems that you have had your share of experience with drug addiction in your life, and that is a shame, but it has not changed the way that you yourself have loved your daughter in any way, has it? You like many other mothers love your child unconditionally. ANS loved her children too. No one can say what it would be like to deal with anything a certain way. What is right for you, is not always the choice that others would make. You or I were not ANS, so we would never know what it was like to deal with the issues in her life. It was clear that she adored her children, and that is a fact. As for what ANS did in her life, that is between her and God. The point being made is the lack of humility or respect from Mandy/Willa. She has displayed none. What I did notice is a total disregard of humility, respect or gratefulness from Mandy/Willa to be given a chance to enhance her own career because of ANS’s death. Mandy/Willa has no claim to fame or fortune. She is a Z-lister. And it shows that she has little respect for ANS by what she’s said during her interviews. You know what they say, those that live in glass houses should not be throwing bricks. I don’t think she is in any position to be so judgemental of ANS. She herself has been in the porn industry, so she is no saint. So it seems obvious that she herself has made many poor choices in her life to gain popularity or money. So for her to be behaving so unprofessionally just makes herself look even worse. She needs to think before she speaks. And if she cannot say anything nice, don’t say it all. It’s as simple as that. The way she behaves on camera is not cute or funny. Her behavior is very abrasive. She should invest some of her funds on a good PR person or take a public speaking course.

Don’t make excuses for a screwed up drug addict who dies of an overdose! You did not know Anna Nicole! Money can not buy class! She was a gold digger!

She loved her children I am sure but she also ran off with Daniel after Mom helped raise him! Cut off her family and tried to do the same to Larry Birkhead until she fell over dead from drugs! If that man is smart he will take that little girl far away from all that dysfunctional trash she called a family!

All you so called Anna Fans? Name one thing she ever did for Charity, Kids, or even Good will! Why does everyone get Sainthood status once there dead?

Give me a break! She was NASTY! Shooting up in her butt with dirty needles! The reason she would not even go to the hospital is she knew they would put her butt in rehab and take that baby.

She killed herself! And as usual while her son was laying in the morge instead of planning his funeral, she was out getting her picture taken while she was having a comittment ceremony and jumping off of a boat!

Once again cutting off her own family and Daniels FATHER! Not the rich old coot she married for his money! Loved him come on, she was never there! She was out spending his money his son proved it! Thats why she never got anything! She never deserved it!

I seen one video were she was so high if it was not for good old Howard she would have dropped the baby. And while pregnant she did drugs the whole time “See clown video!” She was disgusting and People like you who justify this kind of behavior are called enablers Nilda/Alicia and like so many others are the ones to find the bodies.

I have lost a 17 year old Daughter, I got counseling! I did not do drugs! I could have! God knows Dr. Feel good will write the script! It’s called choices. Get real!

Oh and lets not forget her ridiculous Reality show with her talking about how she liked to take it up the butt! She made a mockery of herself!

I think that even if there are people out there who became anna fans after her death ,who cares,,its because people saw all the stuff that, that poor woman endured. And yes vicki i was a fan before she died, try another defense for willa wonka,,.
I totally agree with eve,. look if she did have any kind of respect for anna who, come on she is making money from.. she would apollogize . and for her to say to krisan that she should not be such a hypocrit and judge her is complete bull because we has the public watching her digusting interview have the right to judge someone who doesn’t think before they talk, we are not the one’s that are on extra giving an interview willa wonka is we are not the one’s who have to try and get the public to like what we are promomoting in her sruggling career willa wonka is . And yes just because you have a “fat” sister doesn’t mean she knows how it feel. Her sister should feel very proud to have such an ignorant sister,and her mother should be very proud because remember the way you act outside of your home is just the way your parents raised you so thank you for such an astute child mrs. willa wonka’s mom.. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD,,,,MOM.
AND LAST BUT DEFINETLY NOT LEAST GET RID OF WILLA!!!!!!!!

Great post, Eve!!!!

Let me guess, “Mandy Forever” is Willa herself or one of her warped fans. What gutter did you crawl out of(“haters”)?lol Either way you need to consider how Mandy/Willa comes across in her interviews. The girl needs some serious lessons on public speaking. She came across disrespectful, rude, spoiled and most definitely conceited in the things she said. I guess the truth hurts because people DO NOT like to see or hear comments like that on tv. It has nothing to do with “haters” or jealousy, or whatever other excuse you come up with. Willa needs to learn how to behave on camera and grow up. A public apology would be something she should defintely consider if she wants to save her struggling career. So far she’s rubbing everyone the wrong way. And by the way, a little respect for the dead would be nice. I find it in very poor taste in general to be putting out a film about ANS when her grave isn’t even cold yet and by some Z-lister who cannot seem to show a little more humility and respect for the role she’s playing. Poorly done. As for the man she’s marrying, I find it kind of sad more than likely he is the same shallow, self-centered person that Mandy/Willa is herself. You know what they say, birds of a feather stick together. How unfortunate for the both of you. Do society a favor, don’t breed.

I just watched this on tv and had to get up to write to Extra. I hope they never have this b!@#$ on the show again. All she did was make fun on Anna Nicole Smith. Willa Ford, you are a disgusting human being.

I agree with almost everyone else. If Willa just wants to sit there and bash Anna Nicole, then why is she playing the role? She should be embarrassed to disrespect someone she is supposed to be representing. By the way, what is Willa Ford famous for? A one-hit wonder.
