Yes, it’s very sad that she died. But, why is every media outlet covering this story 24/7 without a break? She was a girl from a small town who wanted to be famous, and did whatever she could to get there, from modeling jeans, posing in Playboy, married a billionaire, using drugs, losing weight, etc.

Her life wasn’t charmed. A marriage at 16 led to the birth of a son who died 5 months ago, barely 21 years old, from a drug overdose. She married a man in his late 80’s, a billionaire, and got 400+ million dollars when he died, lost it due to a court case by her stepson, then got it back. She seemingly found love with her attorney, gave birth to a daughter and 3 days later her son died. Then 3 people claimed to be the father of her child, and now she’s dead, the young daughter without a mother or known father at this time.

Ok, so she was a young girl who died tragically, though at this point her cause of death is unknown, but prescription drugs were found in her hotel room where she died.

But WHY is so much attention given to her? Other people have passed on without much fanfare or just a passing mention.

Are we so gossip-hungry that an entire nation is poised on the edge of their seats to find out if a former model, part-time actress and known publicity seeker died from a drug overdose?
