(CNN) -- Reality TV star and former model Anna Nicole Smith was pronounced dead Thursday after being taken to a Florida hospital after being found unconscious in her hotel room, a law enforcement source with knowledge of the case told CNN.

Smith, 39, collapsed at a south Florida hotel and was taken to a local hospital, according to news reports.

TMZ.com had reported that Smith collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and was rushed to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood just after 2 p.m. ET.

According to reports, Smith was found unresponsive in her hotel room.

Smith was involved in paternity suit regarding the parentage of her daughter, Danielynn, as well as other disputes, including ones regarding a house she stayed at in the Bahamas around the time she gave birth.

Earlier this week, Smith was included in a class-action lawsuit against a company, TrimSpa, for which she has worked as a spokesperson. TrimSpa makes a product it claims leads to substantial weight loss. The lawsuit alleges the marketing of the product, TrimSpa X32, was false or misleading.

Smith's son, Daniel Wayne Smith, died at age 20 just days after the birth of Smith's daughter. Pathologist Cyril Wecht said a lethal dose of methadone and antidepressants caused cardiac dysrhythmia, leading to his death.

Nevertheless, a headline I would have given you even odds to see inside 12 months.

Maybe not a surprise, but still sad. Seems like she had a pretty tragic life.

st.cronin · 02-08-2007, 03:01 PM

I have to admit, I'm looking forward to the jokes.

Easy Mac · 02-08-2007, 03:02 PM

Logan · 02-08-2007, 03:02 PM

RIP and everything...but is it too early to start a "what was the cause" debate?

Wow... very surprising.

It's certainly gone through my mind. Regardless of the cause, it's always a tragedy when someone dies so young.

vtbub · 02-08-2007, 03:06 PM

A modern day Marylin Monroe right down to the end.

molson · 02-08-2007, 03:08 PM

Seemed like a nice enough broad. There's plenty of hot, un-educated poor chicks in Amerian who would have had similar problems if thrust into the the kind of sudden fame and notirety that she did.

Easy Mac · 02-08-2007, 03:08 PM

wasn't Marilyn Monroe attractive?

Odds on suicide versus something caused by taking Trimspa?

I'm not sure we can rule out OJ yet.

Ksyrup · 02-08-2007, 03:15 PM

I haven't read a single article or speculation on the cause of death, but I have to assume that the birth/paternity suit, son dying, and TrimSpa lawsuit provided plenty of reason to pop some pills or do other things which caused her to collapse. It's not like she was that strong a person to begin with.

Whoever bought those "my son's last moments" photos she was shilling just made a nice profit.

Didn't realize she was that old, 39. Not terribly uncommon to drop dead around then after a life of general hard partying.

I think it's at least reasonably uncommon.

The only winners here are going to be the attorneys. And as an attorney without a client in this matter, that makes me sad.

Well, considering she was sleeping with at least one attorney already ... hmm ... well crap, there's actual several ways to go with that consideration & most of them lead to some punchline.

In all seriousness though, I feel sorry for the recently born baby she had. Already the subject of a nasty custody dispute, depending upon the contents of her will and anything that was in the wills that she inherited from herself in the past, this kid could become anything from the hotly contested meal ticket for at least two guys to a child that nobody actually wants (depending upon what was motivating the two possible dads).

I was always pretty sure that Greg Evigan's character was the father. I was pissed after the episode where they had the results of the paternity test, but they tore them up without looking at them.

I was so fucking pissed.

Kodos · 02-08-2007, 04:01 PM

I know she is easy to make fun of, and that she was a total bimbo, but this is still sad to hear. Especially in light of her recent baby.
