Anna Nicole Smith 'Train Wreck': Anna's Sister Speaks

Anna Nicole Smith was a train wreck in life and death, at least according to her half sister, Donna Hogan, who has released a book called "Train Wreck: The Life and Death of the Anna Nicole Smith" in which she reveals more strange tales about the woman with whom she shared a father.  According to CBS, Hogan refers to Smith as Vicky, her given name, and said that Smith had wanted a daughter for years, so much so that she even approached Hogan about adopting her daughter.

"I was a single parent with a daughter, and she bugged me over and over again," Hogan told The Early Show co-anchor Hannah Storm. "She just said that she would take better care of my kids than I would because she had money, which really hurt. That pushed me away from her. I was very hurt by it."

The New York Post's Cindy Adams asked her why "Train Wreck," your new book about and against Anna?  She had a lot to say.

"Because I was hurt. Because it's closure for me. Because now she's gone, and things about her upsetted me. She was selfish. I always respected her, and she always disrespected me. I was struggling. I had to live in a shelter to protect my three kids and I never asked her for nothing. She had four houses and never offered me one to stay in. I bought her a Marilyn Monroe doll and she never bought me a thing. She'd take people who worked for her on shopping sprees to Rodeo Drive and never bring my kids anything.

"She never once offered me money. Except to try and take my little girl from me. See, even after she had Danny she wanted a girl child desperately. She offered me thousands, but only if I'd give up my baby daughter to her which, of course, I wouldn't."

CBS also reports that Hogan also feels that Smith's mother, Virgie Arthur, should be involved in Dannielynn's life, because her granddaughter is all Arthur has left of Smith, who passed away just over two months ago from an accidental drug overdose. Hogan says that Arthur protected Smith from her abusive father and stepfather.

In addition, Hogan writes about Smith's extensive plastic surgeries including a double breast enhancement that made her so large that at one point, her bras had to be custom-made. That lead to back-pain and Hogan said Smith turned to prescription drugs.
