Los Angeles, California -- Willa Ford will
play Anna Nicole Smith in an independent movie that
begins shooting next week, Daily Variety reported
Wednesday.
Ford, 26, is best known for her hit single "I Wanna
Be Bad," from her 2001 album, "Willa Was Here." Like
Smith, she was a Playboy model. |
Smith, 39, died in February from a mix of
prescription drugs, leaving behind a baby daughter
and a possible fortune from her marriage to the late
J. Howard Marshall II, the Texas oil tycoon. A court
in the Bahamas announced Tuesday that DNA tests
proved former boyfriend Larry Birkhead was the
baby's father. |
|
The previously announced independent movie "Anna Nicole"
will cover her life from age 17 to her death.
Ford, whose real name is Amanda Lee Williford, appeared as a
"celebrity dancer" last year on ABC's "Dancing With the
Stars" and has hosted several reality television shows. |
