Anna Nicole Smith: The Opera
Posted by Joe Bardi on Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 4:15 PM
Yes, you read that right. Britian's Royal Opera is planning to adapt the life and times of Anna Nicole Smith. Per Variety:
The company says the show will have music by respected British composer Mark-Anthony Turnage. The libretto is by Richard Thomas, co-creator of "Jerry Springer: The Opera," an earlier merger of highbrow and lowbrow culture. It is due to run in the Royal Opera's 2011 season.
Many questons remain: Can the producers find a female opera singer who can pull of this role? What kind of special effects will be required to get the star to repeatedly gain and lose 100 lbs. during the show? Is Kato Kaelin available to play Larry Birkhead?

Wouldn't it be best to wait until the whole saga is officially over- i.e. when the legal battle finally finishes up, before the ANS opera is finalized? Oh wait, those greedy attorneys will NEVER let that happen. ANS should be left in peace- however, her own friends need to let her rest first.
