Vicky Lynn Hogan is Anna Nicole Smith....right for all the others so far.....and as a side note Tarver, my
daughter just did the whole Hollywood tourist stuff this past weekend, and she was amazed at how big Marilyn Monroes hands were at the old Graumans Chinese.....Marilyn was never a mere slip of a girl.
