Anna Nicole emergency call released - Feb 13 2007
Anna Nicole Smith was unresponsive and not breathing when an Indian tribe’s police department requested help from paramedics, a tape has revealed.
In the 31-second call, the Seminole tribal police department asked
"She’s not breathing, and she’s not responsive. She’s, um, actually Anna Nicole Smith," the woman from the Seminole Police is heard saying.
"Oh, OK," a woman at the Hollywood Police Department responds.
Anna Nicole, a former Playboy playmate, model and reality TV character, was pronounced dead about an hour later at a hospital. The tape of the conversation was released by the Hollywood Police Department. The tape of the original emergency call to the tribal police was not released.
Her partner, Howard Stern, was not with her when she died, but he had been there that morning, and he knew she was very ill, his sister, Bonnie Stern, said.
Howard had been gone only about two hours when news reached him that Anna Nicole was dead, his sister said.
Bonnie said he had tried to get Anna Nicole to visit a doctor but she had refused because she was afraid that it would draw publicity.

Although she had aspirations to become ’the next Marilyn Monroe’, Vickie began working at Jim’s Krispy Fried Chicken where she met her first husband, Billy Wayne Smith. They married when Vickie was just seventeen. The next year she gave birth to their son Daniel and in 1987 seperated from her husband, finding work as an exotic dancer in Houston.
Whilst working as a stripper she met elderly millionaire J. Howard Marshall, with whom she began a relationship despite the sixty three year age gap. In 1994 the couple married amid much tabloid excitement. Marshall died thirteen months later, leaving nothing to his young wife.
In the interim Vickie, now going by the name Anna Nicole Smith, appeared on the front cover of Playboy, being made Playmate of the Year by Hugh Hefner. She bagged a deal with Guess?, replacing supermodel Claudia Schiffer and finding herself a household name. Meanwhile Anna Nicole battled Marshall’s sons in the courts for her share of her late husbands millions, however she was eventually bankrupted and ordered to pay $1million dollars in fees. She was again given the right to fight for her entitlement following the death of her stepson.
Anna Nicole’s acting career was much less publicised than her marriage, although she appeared in high profile films The Hudsucker Proxy and Naked Gun 33 1/3. Her bigger roles came in smaller films such as To The Limit and Skyscraper and on television, appearing as herself in wacky reality TV series The Anna Nicole Show. She later apeared in Be Cool and Wasabi Tuna.
On September 7 2006 Anna Nicole gave birth to a daughter, Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern, claiming the father was her lawyer Howard K Stern, although her ex boyfriend, Larry Birkhead, claimed the child as his. Three days later her son, Daniel, died of an apparent drug overdose while visiting his mother and half sister in hospital. Later that same month Anna Nicole and Howard K Stern exchanged vows in a commitment ceremony in the Bahamas.
On February 8 2007, the day after a date for a paternity test on her daughter had been set, Anna Nicole collapsed at a hotel in Florida and later died. An autopsy has yet to determine the cause of death.
