Anna Nicole Smith’s embarrassing incident on Late Night with Conan O’Brien

In her youth, Anna Nicole Smith was an out of this world beautiful lady, still there was a common tendency to appear usually modest, accessible and nice.

A certain interview in 1995 actually brings out that side of her something which many claim was eaten up by the industry and people that ate her soul later.

Membership of a very exclusive club


Anna Nicole Smith did not have the life of fame and riches at the onset, but her humble origin was in the little town of Media in Texas. She did not have a easy life as a child. Her father walked out on her when she was a small child and she did not manage to complete high school.

Nobody could imagine then that she would end up being one of the faces that are known by most of the world. The road towards the usual line a lot of high school drop-outs often follow was close at hand, with the job at a local restaurant, being in love as a teenager and becoming a mother at 17.


Anna though had a something special and it did not take long to realize it in the world. In 1992 she got a coveted place in Hugh Hefner illustrious magazine after submitting naked photographs of herself at Playboy.

The same year she was also featured in advertisements of the fashion company Guess where she is definitely not shy to reveal her beautiful curves and transform into her role model Marilyn Monroe.

In the next year Smith achieved a great milestone in her career as she was declared as the Playmate of the year by Playboy becoming a part of the very exclusive club of women achieving this feather in their cap.

Anna Nicole Smith grew to be a favorite victim of celebrity magazines and tabloids with her sexy image. The bubbly blonde then did not appear to mind about the media attention that came constantly. She has claimed,

I love the paparazzi. They make photographs and I simply grin. I never despised being noticed. My childhood was not very wealthy and I always wanted to be, you know, noticed.”

When the mid-1990s rolled around, she was indeed at the height of her career–she got modeling jobs with several of the largest fashion companies in the business, and even got cast in Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult, which would earn over 81 million in the box office.

All this is the background on which the unforgettable interview of Anna Nicole Smith with Conan O Brien should be regarded.

They say that the time Conan stared straight into peoples eyes like never before, was when Anna Nicole Smith was a visitor on his show, but there are more memorable moments, that include, the interview, which brought along.

Such as when Anna Nicole tells a funny, but humiliating experience of hers. She tells in the interview a humorous but embarrassing event that occurred when she met film and TV producers.

Her dress somehow opened up and her breast fell out at some time.

There is hope he does not get angry with me. I am not going to say your name, I swear it, Anna started talking nervous.

Conan laughed, and answered, No one is watching this show. You know, don t worry about it, (back then it was pulling about 2.5 million viewers per episode.)

Anna continued: we were sitting there, eating, just talking and all, and I had a new dress. Everyone in the room chatting and chatting, and then, my dress unzipped, and then I lost my boob.”


Anna giggled with memory, and said: “I just burst out laughing, I was so embarrassed, and I had the salad in my mouth, so I spat out the salad on him!

In an attempt to get out of the embarrassing situation, she commented that she remembered saying, Oh my God, now I have to die, in an effort to escape this scene.

And Conan, of course, did not want to restrain himself.

I know he was not miserable. It is not a bad day in the office. Well, that will not be the absolute worst thing that can happen at the workplace at least, it is not as bad as having the water cooler falling on the foot!”

Anna said she did not call him back.
“Oh really?

Yet he called up all right,–and even sent me flowers.

Oh, that is nice.
So it had a good, end, which is like he is a good man.”

It was great.
The reason why people aspired Conan following this interview


There have been numerous retrospective reviews giving props to Conan and Anna Nicole Smith interview and with a good reason. Admittedly, it is hard to comment on the sexiness of a visitor directly, as it sounds outdated and dorky in 2017, but Conan did it in a way that was way more respectable compared to the other hosts of the era.

One user commented that just imagine how much one like Letterman, Stern, or even Fallon would have been over the top.

Conan however settled into his self-depreciatory humor, leaving the atmosphere light, silly, and in good taste. That is the reason he has been so consistently funny year after year, he never had to put people down to a get a laugh.

And to be real, Jesus, thank God that it was not any of those clips where the host is a creep. Anna Nicole appeared to be rather nervous, and although she was not the best storyteller in the world, yet she appeared to be fresh and sincere, and the more so, the cuter she was.


The cruelest piece of humor


Conan does not turn out to be a complete saint, though. Although his interview with Anna Nicole Smith was rather decent, he did not hesitate to use her as a joke maker when headlines became too irresistible.

When Anna and her 90-year-old oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall husband died in 1995, it was blood in the water to late-night comedians. Their marriage age difference had already caused some eyebrows and when he died, the jokes came thick and fast (and in some cases cruel).

Conan, who never abdicates a pungent quippy one-liner, conjectured:

He will be buried, “face down as he had wanted to be buried, between two huge pillows.”

Jay Leno picked it up and ran away with it. He gave them one smash after another:

It is hitting her seriously. She isn t even starting to date till Friday.

And again: Then she holds it that every donation made in his name should go in her name.
David letterman was not left behind as he gave out this zinger:


It is one of those days when I feel a bit old. This morning I receive a call by Anna Nicole Smith. She wants me to fax to her a copy of my financial statement.”

However, provided that someone went over the mark, then perhaps this could have been Leno once more withhis perhaps ugliest punchline of all:


The paper, today, said she was never allowed to hear the last words of her husband. That thing over his face, I suppose was a pillow.”

Back in the 90s, these jokes can have caused laughs, but some people might say that it was a bad joke. Repeating, especially given the sad finish of Anna Nicole Smith life itself, who overdosed on drugs accidentally in February 2007, only months after losing her 20-years old son Daniel in strangely similar conditions.
