Just curious since I know of no-one who knows why ET and Access Hollywood spend so much time discussing her when she was alive and now that she is dead.

She originally became infamous because of marrying the 89 year old man when she was 26. Also, she came from such a poor background and was a stripper to boot. All makes for interesting stuff. If she would have inherited all the money the old guy left her she would of had 1/2 billion dollars. Also the case has gone all the way up to the Supreme Court and has lasted for 10 years.
So, That is why.

She was a stripper in Texas that had an eighty-year-old oil tycoon fall in love with her. They married after she became Playboy's Playmate of the Year and had a son together.
The Playboy Playmate gig led to her becoming a model for Guess Jeans and minor movie roles (one of "The Naked Gun" movies and a couple others). Anna-Nicole Smith hit it relatively big with her reality show "The Anna-Nicole Show" on the E! cable channel.
When her husband died, the children from his first marriage fought to keep her from inheriting from the estate. The legal battle has lasted over 10 years and eventually went before the Supreme Court to resolve a few minor technical points of law.

She actually became famous for her Guess? Jeans photographs back in the day...the early 90's.
She started as a stripper, met millionaire J. Howard Marshall, who probably helped launch her modeling career. She posed for Guess? and then Playboy and then married Marshall 2 years after meeting him.
Frankly, the thing that most likely propelled her to fame were her similarities to Marilyn Monroe.

- Anna Nicole Smith, the pneumatic blonde whose life played out as an extraordinary tabloid tale — Playboy centerfold, jeans model, bride of an octogenarian oil tycoon, reality-show subject, tragic mother — died Thursday after collapsing at a hotel. She was 39.

Smith was a poor white trash girl from Texas. She first gained publicity when she posed nude for playboy. She managed to stay in the public eye, when in her twenties, she married a millionaire, who was in his nineties. Upon his death, she inherited his millions which led to a long court battle with his heirs over his estate. The U.S. Supreme Court sided with her and she was on the cusp of inheriting the money. The rest you know.

Anna-Nicole was a 39 year old. Famous for marrying a rich elderly man while only being a young topless dancer. Since then she has kept her fame by her reality show, Trim-spa, and her son's death.

She was a stripper, turned Playboy model, turned Guess Jeans model, who married an 89 year-old oil tycoon for his money, her son died from drugs a couple months ago, and I'm sure she died from drugs. Nuff said.
