Whatever happened to Cousin Shelly, Kimmie and Sugar Pie?


Whatever happened to "Cousin Shelly" that was featured quite a bit on Anna's reality show? She was her real cousin, right? Obviously I could just do a quick Google search to find out, but I followed Anna's career and death pretty closely, and never saw anything from Shelly. And what about Kimmie? She was omitted from the '08 Anna Nicole movie and this one, too.

I know the reality show aspect of Anna Nicole's life was for only two years, but it was that show that really put her on the map in regards to pop culture/relevancy. Yes, she was a Playboy playmate, did a few comedies, the infamous court case, and was a GUESS model. However, she soared after that reality show. I remember everyone knowing who she was when it came to those TrimSpa commercials, and when Kanye featured her in his "Workout Plan" music video.

And of course everyone ate up those TrimSpa commercials not only because they were funny, but everyone remembered her being such an overweight trainwreck on her show. It was such an amazing transformation. Does anyone else remember that infamous presentation at the American Music Awards when she was presenting Kanye West, or when she started stripping at the VH1's Big in '05 Awards when winning an award? Oh, and when she came out topless during some foreign MTV Music Awards. And showing up to an Oscar's party drunk. The list goes on.




*beep* happens and then you live.

I'm with you 100%. The movie just glazed over crucial parts of her career. I also didn't buy for a second that she started off that reality show trying to ham it up to look goofy. The reality show was supposed to follow her pursuit of Marshall's estate but clearly the show took a different route.
