The Anna Nicole Smith Circus Is Coming to Town!

LA judge orders paternity test for baby Dannielynn

As much as she tried to do everything not to return to the States for the paternity test for her daughter, former glamour model Anna Nicole Smith will be forced to do so, according to a ruling of an LA judge. The court yesterday decided that she must submit the baby to the genetic paternity test by January 23rd, 2007.

It all started in September 2006, when Smith retired to the Bahamas to give birth to her child. Until that moment, she had refused to reveal the true identity of the baby's father and she maintained the same position for another couple of weeks after Dannielynn was born.

After her 20-year-old son Daniel was found dead near her hospital bed and there was no apparent explanation for his passing, a celebrity photographer she once openly dated, Larry Birkhead went on the record and claimed that he was the father of the baby girl. He also told the media that Anna refused to let him be a part of her life and that she was trying to shut him out completely out of Dannielynn's too.

But things got even more complicated the moment Smith's long-time lawyer and friend, Howard K. Stern, also claimed the paternity of the child and - to make things even more official - he went on and signed his name on the birth certificate. Birkhead was thus left with no other choice than to go to court and file a case against his former lover, all the time pleading with her to bring Dannielynn back to the States to have her DNA tested.

All his urges fell on deaf ears, as Anna and Howard repeatedly stood by their claim that the latter was the real father. Hopefully, the drama will end by January 23rd, when she is to comply with the judge's order and come to the US with Dannielynn to have the paternity test done. That is, if she doesn't find another legal loop hole to get out of this messy situation, too, just like she also did on other occasions.
