[edit] Custody Battle

It says "Larry E. Birkhead ... who was in a custody battle with Anna Nicole Smith." Doesn't this suggest he was fighting ANS for custody of the girl. And furthermore, they weren't fighting for custody - they were debating the paternity of the child. I suggest it should be something like "LEB ... who took Howard K. Stern to court over the paternity of Daniellyn Smith" 89.168.20.6 21:46, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, it was about paternity, and the news said that it's official now that Birkhead's the father; I never really doubted it... They've been saying after the paternity results, there'd have to be another lawsuit for custody.

[edit] National Enquirer Article

On 4-18-2007, The National Enquirer published an interview with a male model who claims to have had a brief, two month, affair with Birkhead. Why is this not mentioned in the article? I seem many other Wiki articles with mentions about this sort of thing.

  • It has been added several times and then censored by other users, a major problem on Wikipedia-even when the information is well sourced like the National Enquirer.

[edit] Grammar

"Depra Opri is wanting a payment of close to $700,000 in attorney fees."

Shouldn't it be Depra Opri wants? I can't edit it for myself due to it being protected. 129.137.153.173 20:42, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why was the article removed?

Why was this article removed? No warning, no explanation, just zap. --Robertkeller 16:29, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Why is their no mention of the recent front page N.E. article? 4/18/07. User: Browned


[edit] Info about other possible fathers

It seems to me that information about other possible fathers of Anna Nicole Smith's child belongs solely in the article on Smith. This article should concern Birkhead and his claims only. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.72.106.50 (talk • contribs)

All the unrelated content is now removed. Thanks for bringing this up. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 19:18, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unprofessional and unclear

Can someone please clarify the following in this article:

"...In the days after Anna Nicole's death he claimed that he helped Anna prepared to have the baby and gave her an ultimatum to go to rehab. She agreed and then ran off to the Bahamas with Howard K. Stern to give birth..."

1. Should it read "helped Anna prepare"?

2. Larry Birkhead giving her an ultimatum to go to rehab seems to be a non sequitur in the context of that sentence. Someone with clear sources to cite should clean this up.

3."She agreed and then ran off to the Bahamas" is conversational speech and should be changed to be more editorial. Conversational speech seems to be a rampant problem on Wikipedia.

Ummm, nobody stopped you from making edits to clarify anything. This is a volunteer encyclopedia, not a professional one. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 15:54, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kato Kaelin Reference: Who Made that Entry?

Looked back and could not see this entry in previous versions, so as a still learning editor wondering why can't figure out who put it in. Also, I assume someone will want to edit it out - or explain its relevance since he's not mentioned on Kaelin's page. Just a snide entry? Carol Moore 19:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC) carolmooredc

I don't care who added it, but it's nonsense, and I removed it. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 21:06, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Updates

I recomend the following be appended: On April 10th, 2007, Larry Birkhead announced that he was the father of Dannielynn Stern, the daughter of Anna Nicole Smith, outside the Bahama courtroom. "I told you so" were his words. [1]

[edit] Money?

What's he living on? Has he got big money from Entertainment Tonight for all the interviews and picures? They have paid a lot of money to other people for pictures.
