Anna Nicole's Tawdry Twists
by Molly McCallSep 7, 2007
In the latest installment of the Anna Nicole Smith sleaze saga, "baby-daddy" Larry Birkhead's spats with OK! magazine and TV journalist Rita Cosby over allegations that he and Anna Nicole's "constant companion," Howard K. Stern, were gay lovers.
Birkhead is outraged—outraged!—at any and all allegations of sex tapes, tawdry trysts, or even liking guys. OK!'s outraged that Birkhead broke an exclusive deal to milk baby Dannielynn's every coo. Stern is reportedly outraged by the gay charges, but he's only speaking through a lawyer.
Reporter and "Blonde Ambition" author Cosby is the one player not worked into a sputtering state. But then, what writer could take umbrage at this luscious bounty of buzz?
Searches for "larry birkhead" rose 353% this week. Lookups for "larry birkhead gay," "larry birkhead website," "larry birkhead and howard stern," surged. Interest in "rita cosby book" also spiked.
Miss Cosby is enjoying a windfall of buzz just for little ol' her, too. Searchers have boosted buzz for her pictures, her old network, and her raspy now-it's-here-now-it's-not voice. They've also sought out "rita cosby hot." Could this story get any more icky? Actually, forget we asked. We don't want to know.
