The estranged mother of Anna Nicole Smith predicts that the ensuing custody/paternity battle over her five month old granddaughter Dannielynn, whose natural paternity is unclear, will get ugly.

Appearing on “Good Morning America,” Virgie Arthur described her dead daughter as “wild and crazy,” and lamented on how often she had warned the former Playboy bunny to stop getting high.

When asked about the pending paternity battle, Anna’s mom responded with, “Oh yeah, it’ll get ugly.” V.A also added that she “sincerly worries” about what will happen to the now mother and big brotherless infant, but she would prefer the baby be with her biological father-whoever that may be.

Mom also claims that Anna Nicole’s rise to fame was not a classic rags-to-riches tale. “Why do you tell people stuff like that?” she said she asked Anna Nicole. “I’ll do whatever it takes,” Anna replied. “If my name’s out there, I make money.”
