Anna Nicole Smith Opera Debuts, Estate Wants To Sue

Anna Nicole Smith Opera Debuts, Estate Wants To Sue

Though it?s been four years since model Anna Nicole Smith?s untimely death, she?s in the spotlight once again ? this time thanks to an opera about her life.

The ?rags-to-riches? story of Smith?s rise to fame ? titled ?Anna Nicole? ? debuted at London?s Royal Opera House last night to a sold-out crowd.

?She is fame incarnate,? the show?s lyricist, Richard Thomas, told CNN about Smith and her life story.

?It is a rags-to-riches story and a cautionary tale all chucked into a blender and whooshed up with three bags of sugar and two bottles of tequila and poured over a two-hour time frame.?

However, Larry Birkhead says Anna Nicole Smith?s Estate is threatening legal action.

Birkhead spoke with TMZ and said the producers never contacted Anna?s estate or him. They also didn?t offer Larry an advance screening. Larry says the opera is like ?a sleazy tabloid.?

Smith famously married multimillionaire J. Howard Marshall, who was 62 years her senior, and endured a lengthy court battle for his estate. She passed away suddenly due to an accidental drug overdose in 2007 at age 39.
