Pol’ Atteu and Partik Simpson kicks off the official book tour of their Anna Nicole Smith, Portrait of an Icon, this week on June 7 at Pol’ Atteu’s Boutique in Beverly Hills California, you can view the invite here. You can also visit Rose Speaks’ youtube.com page to see the Pol’ and Patrik Extra TV interview. The proceeds from the June 7 kick off will go to the breast cancer charity in memory of Pol’s mother.

Our very own Lyndal Harrington received a personal invite along with some of the famous who’s who of Beverly Hills and those people important in Anna Nicole Smith’s life to the book signing kick off party. It was an honor for Lyndal to be invited but the close relationship she has developed with Patrik during all of these interviews, I believe have gone from an on the record interview to a real personal friendship. BRAVO to our very on Lyndal Harrington for doing such a good job, from April 1 up through today and ongoing, on these series of interviews with Pol’ and Patrik. We hope we have additional interviews with them as they wind through the pitfalls of their own legal embroilment in these lawsuits.

As Rose Speaks winds up our exclusive coverage and interviews with Pol’ and Patrik, there are a few things you will only be able to read here. Including, they say stay tuned as they plan a COMPLETE TELL ALL book on Anna Nicole Smith and those in her life and all of the secrets hidden that we don’t know about. That book will be out between 3 to 6 months from now. Can the life and death of Anna Nicole Smith with yet more inside information do well in a market with so many tell all books? Pol and Patrik hope so.

Patrik did give us a peek into the deposition he had with all of the lawyers on May 27, yes, they moved his deposition up by one day. The rest of this paragraph has been pulled by concerns of Pol’ and Patrik in regards to their deposition, this will be replaced with an official statement from Pol’ and Patrik’s lawyers as soon as we receive it..

Patrik had called me on the morning of May 28, from his home, sounding very ill, with what appeared to be a relapse with the flu he had been battling for the last few weeks. However, Patrik did want to make a full disclosure that during one of Pol and Patrik’s many yearly trips to New York in regards to The Modeling Association International, which Patrik sits on the board, they did have dinner with “Liz”, her assistant and Rita in mid March 2008, something that he had forgotten to tell us during the exhaustive phone calls involved in these interviews. The rest of this paragraph has been pulled by concerns of Pol’ and Patrik in regards to their deposition, this will be replaced with an official statement from Pol’ and Patrik’s lawyers as soon as we receive it.

One last note for those sites that are saying they had “written interviews” with Pol’ and Patrik and so that is what Rose Speaks had also, WRONG, we have had extensive phone contact with Patrik and a few times with Pol’. For those naysayers I would just echo what Patrik said in the past, Pol and Patrik’s home phone, cell phone, business and fax numbers will show that we did in fact have many calls for many hours in compiling these interviews.

We here at Rose Speaks thank Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson for their candor during the past 2+ months. We wish them well in the future with their books and raising their lovely daughter. We also want to remind all of you we will continue to cover any future lawsuits that Pol’ and Patrik find themselves embroiled in, including future hearing and filings with the ex-madam, Jody “Baby Doll” Gibson. There will be new documents up about the lawsuit with Jody “Baby Doll” Gibson in our download section this weekend.

Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson will be appearing on the television celebrity show Extra on Wednesday May 28th. This will be the kick off of their tribute book to their friend Anna Nicole Smith, Portrait of an Icon. The interview was partially done in the studio of Extra but some of it was filmed at Pol’ Atteu’s Contour Boutique. Perhaps we will get to see some of the gorgeous designs for Anna Nicole Smith.

Pol’ and Patrik will barely catch their breath following the Tuesday show of Extra before each being deposed for seven to eight hours in Los Angeles by subpoena from Rita Cosby and Hachette Books. Patrik Simpson will be deposed on May 28, 2008 and Pol’ Atteu on May 29, 2008. My first question is wouldn’t it have been better for Rita Cosby to talk with them BEFORE the book came out then to have to pay the legal expenses to depose them now? Can you imagine the powerhouse lawyers that will be present during those depositions, from Elizabeth McNamara for Ms. Cosby, Douglas Maynard and Deborah Newman for Hachette Books. Then add Lin Wood, Luke Lantta and John Patton for Howard K. Stern; two lawyers for Pol and Patrik, and they are going to need a huge room to accommodate that many plus the staff doing the depositions. This should be the making of two fun days of questions and answers NOT.

I am assuming since Ms. Cosby and Hachette Books lawyers are the ones doing the deposing they feel Pol’ and Patrik will be helpful to their case or are they on a fishing expedition? We were given copies of the Subpoenas for Oral Depositions on condition of anonymity therefore, Rose Speaks downloads open to all visitors, not just registered members is the only place you can pick up copies of these papers. Those papers can be downloaded under the Howard K. Stern vs. Rita Cosby and Hachette books in our download section. We still have not been able to reach Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson’s lawyers to check to see if Pol’ and Patrik have filed or are going to file Motions to Quash any parts of the Subpoenas nor do we know if any records are being asked for the depositions. If we get a statement from their attorneys, we will be adding that to this article.

We have also added new papers under the Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson vs. Jody “Baby Doll” Gibson and Corona Books, again open to ALL not just members. Two of the more interesting papers that you will only find here at Rose Speaks are two letters. One is a letter from Lin Wood to Pol’ and Patrik threatening to sue them because of their books of Anna Nicole Smith, Portrait of an Icon. The other is a response letter from Pol’ and Patrik’s lawyers back to Lin Wood threatening to sue Howard K. Stern and the Estate.

I don’t see any love fest occurring this next week, stay tuned here at Rose Speaks for the latest all week, but make sure to set your televisions to tune in on Wednesday May 28 for Extra to watch Pol’ and Patrik’s take on all things Anna Nicole Smith.

Anyone have a count as to how many lawsuits we now have, and how many more being filed?

Give us your thoughts. Should some of these suits be settled in mediation? In addition, should some of these potential suits be mediated before being filed? We just think we need a score card now, as summer comes along if all of the suits threatened are filed and cross filed this is going to be a busy summer.

As we talked to Patrik about the upcoming series of articles this week concerning their suit against the ex-Madame, Jody Gibson, in California a few things came up that caused a couple of chuckles in spite of the seriousness of the pending litigation.

They mused as to why the ex-Madame turned publisher always wanted to meet them in a parking lot and not at her “office”. After several meetings, they decided to find her office, and voila, they went to her office and it was at the above location. They then found her record of being convicted, and so many alias names it would make anyone’s head hurt.

They sent emails and letters to stop, cease and desist stating that the publishing contract had been breeched. There was no way to get the money back she had “secured” to publish the book from them. Then the book began to appear in e-form for download all over the internet and it was nothing like the elegant book they had created.

From there the nightmares and the lawsuit began, we think you will find Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson’s interview to be spell binding and very insightful as we here at Rose Speaks have found them. We have the papers and more will go up today. Also will be the first of an exclusive 3-part interview. They will talk about their friend of many years Anna Nicole Smith, Rita Cosby’s book and did she contact them, and what did Wilma Vicedomine said and how did she contact them and when.

We think you will find great insight to all of these people, plus Daniel Smith, conversations they had with Anna Nicole about her mother, but the big part in part one of this exclusive is when did Wilma Vice call them? What did she offer them and why do they feel as if they were “stalked” by her, the term they used to describe the calls. We were able to verify with two independent sources about Wilma having their number and talking about contacting them and the spin she put on those conversations.

Stay tuned the first part of the interview will be up in just a few hours and more papers from the court will be up also today as we follow these two friends through the legal system of an ex-Madame turned publisher.

You can pick up your copy of the documents in this case to study in our download all of the important court papers for this trial in our download section of the main site:

You can find their book - Anna Nicole Smith “Portrait of an Icon” available at their website or Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other book outlets.

RE: Anna Nicole Smith “Portrait of an Icon”

Stay tuned as we kick off with a three day exclusive into the lives of Pol’ Atteu and Partik Simpson the long time friends and designers for Anna Nicole Smith. As well as the bizarre trial of the convicted ex-Madam and her spin machine.

We will attempt to weed out spin from facts and will be following this up close and personal including all of the latest breaking news and interviews as they happen in Hollywood.

Beginning with this official statement from Pol’ and Patrik’s P. R. Firm “The Bergman Agency”:

CONVICTED FELON USES MEDIA TO SPREAD LIES

AGAINST POL’ ATTEU & PATRIK SIMPSON, AUTHORS OF

ANNA NICOLE SMITH: PORTRAIT OF AN ICON, SIGNATURE EDITION

Los Angeles — On Wednesday, April 9, 2008, The Honorable Judge Joe Hilberman granted a Preliminary Injunction in favor of authors Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson, authors of

Anna Nicole Smith Portrait of an Icon

, Case No. SC097218 is set for a Status Conference June 16, 2008. THIS CASE IS NOT OVER! DEFENDANT GIBSON MISREPRESENTED TO MEDIA THAT IT IS – NOT TRUE!! The Complaint sets forth the following Causes of Action: Breach of Contract; Fraud, Interference with Economic Relations, Damages, Intentional Interference with Contract, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, Accounting, Unjust Enrichment, Conversion and Unfair Competition.

Plaintiffs Atteu and Simpson were granted the Injunction against Gibson to stop her from interfering with their right to sell their book, among other things. AGAIN, GIBSON MISREPRESENTED TO THE MEDIA THAT ATTEU & SIMPSON LOST – NOT TRUE!! This is a major victory for Atteu and Simpson because a Court very rarely grants an injunction unless it is proven that irreparable damage will be caused if the offending party (Gibson) is not immediately stopped and enjoined by the Court. This is exactly what the Honorable Judge Joe Hilberman decided.

California law requires that every prevailing party for an Injunction must post a bond according to Code of Civil Procedure Section 529. THIS IS STANDARD PROCEDURE, NOT SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT THE JUDGE ORDERED AS DEFENDANT GIBSON ALLEGED! Plaintiffs’ Atteu and Simpson posted a $10,000 bond as required by California law.

Judge Hilberman acknowledged that Defendant Gibson’s actions of contacting Amazon.com to have Plaintiffs’ version of their book removed from the website constituted improper interference with Plaintiffs’ own third party contracts and Defendants must be stopped from continuing to interfere with Plaintiffs’ attempt to market their own work. Further, the Honorable Judge Hilberman noted that a letter sent by Plaintiffs’ attorney on January 25, 2008, appeared to operate to terminate the agreement between the parties and Defendant Gibson’s failure to comply appears to have been improper.

Issued by Doris Bergman of the Bergman Agency on behalf of her clients Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson.

You can pick up your copy of the documents in this case to study in our download all of the important court papers for this trial in our download section of the main site.

Yes the first exclusive with Pol’ and Patrik will be up late tonight including some interesting contacts by Wilma Vice to them on behalf of Virgie Arthur and what was offered to Pol’ Atteu and Patrik Simpson.
