Chyna Probably Overdosed on Ambien and Valium, Manager Claims
Anthony Anzaldo discovered his client’s lifeless body inside her Rendondo Beach home on April 20th.
The manager believes that former wrestler Chyna died from a combination of sleeping aid Ambien and Valium, used to treat anxiety (Anzaldo said she battled insomnia most of her life)
With the toxicology report still pending, Anzaldo says “it’s a 98 percent certainty and 2 percent speculation,” according to the Associated Press.
Though Chyna did have a history of drinking, Anzaldo confirmed that he found no alcohol in her home when she died.
He did, however, say she had been “self-medicating a little bit more than she should have” due to personal issues.
Chyna was seeing a psychiatrist for the first time, regularly attended a women’s domestic violence support group, and visited her estranged father’s grave.
“A lot was going on in her life emotionally,” Anzaldo explained in defense of his client.
“But she wasn’t depressed; it was just a lot to deal with. She accidentally, over the course of two or three weeks, misused her legally prescribed medication.”
Still, he doesn’t believe toxicologists are going to be shocked by what they uncover.
“They’re not going to find, like, 60 pills in her stomach,” he said.
Speculation has pointed towards an overdose since the 46-year-old’s death, which comes at a time when she was looking to rebuild her life and get back into show business.
Chyna recorded a video of herself in the weeks before her death, in which she seemed disoriented and a bit out of it.

Prince Overdosed on Percocet Just Days Before Death, Source Claims
Yesterday, the world learned that music legend Prince had passed away at his home in Minnesota.
He was just 57 years old.
Rumors about the cause of the singer’s death have been circulating non-stop for the past 24 hours, but no definitive answers have emerged.
Many believe Prince knew his death was coming as a result of cryptic remarks he made following a medical emergency last week.
During a party at his Paisley Park venue following his release from the hospital, Prince told assembled well-wishers to “wait a few days before you waste any prayers.”
Reps for the iconic entertainer claimed that his hospitalization was related to flu symptoms, but witnesses say he appeared to be perfectly healthy at the event near his home just days later.
Yesterday, sources told TMZ that the flu explanation was bunk, and Prince actually overdosed and had to be resuscitated with a “save shot” at the hospital.
Now, the website is claiming to have new details, reporting that it was an overdose of the prescription painkiller Percocet that temporarily stopped Prince’s heart just days before his death.
The near-fatal OD reportedly took place on Prince’s private jet, necessitating an emergency landing in order to save the singer’s life.
EMTs at an Illinois airport were able to save his life, but Prince is said to have given several indications that he didn’t expect to live much longer in the days that followed.
Sources say that in addition to his remarks at Paisley Park, Prince caused concern amidst his inner circle when he began feverishly working on his memoirs, which sadly remained unfinished at the time of his death.
Many are comparing the situation to the events leading up to the death of David Bowie, another music legend who passed unexpectedly and was later found to have been suffering from an illness that he concealed from the public.
No official cause of death has been released in the case of Prince, but a toxicology report and the the results of an autopsy are expected next week.
We will have updates on this tragic passing as more information becomes available.

Lamar Odom Overdosed on Drugs, May Have Suffered Stroke, Doctors Report
Last night, Lamar Odom was found unconscious after several days of partying at the Love Ranch brothel in Nevada.
Odom is currently comatose, and until recently, there were conflicting reports about how he wound up in his present state.
Now, E! News is reporting that Odom has overdosed on several different drugs, and he may have suffered a stroke and permanent brain damage.
“He was doing crack cocaine all weekend and he choked on his mucous,” the insider explains. “They’re now having to fix all the damage it has done.
“So, likely there’s brain damage, but they’re not sure how much. Virtually every drug imaginable was found in his system.”
Doctors add that it appears Odom suffered from an “ischemic stroke,” which is the result of a clot preventing proper blood flow to the brain.
Ischemic strokes are often the result of prolonged cocaine use.
“The long term effects of his drug use have taken a toll on his body and the binge this time was too much to handle,” the source says.
The insider adds that while doctors are “treating this as an overdose situation,” they do not believe that it was a suicide attempt.
We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.
