British writer penning opera about Anna Nicole Smith: "Replete with doomed love affairs, failed bids for fame and an early tragic death, Anna Nicole Smith's life story is the stuff of opera.
At least that's the way it seems to Richard Thomas, the British writer and composer who also created Jerry Springer — The Opera.
Thomas plans to turn his talents to the tale of the former Playboy Playmate who died last year of an apparently accidental overdose.
'It's an incredible story,' Thomas said, quoted in the London Independent on Friday. 'It's very operatic and sad. She was quite a smart lady with the tragic flaw that she could not seem to get through life without a vat of prescription painkillers.'"
