Dannielynn Birkhead turned three years old this week.

To celebrate the occasion, exploitative father Larry Birkhead appears to have sold his daughter to the highest bidder once again, setting up another photo shoot for her with a celebrity gossip tabloid.

Grilled by OK! Weekly, Larry was asked such challenging questions as: "Do you love being a dad?"

Unfortunately, the magazine never asked Birkhead how much money he makes every time he pimps out his daughter like her late mother, exposing her to a life in front of the camera that is unlikely to end well. Just check out this frightening photo:

Here are excerpts from the interview:

On Dannielynn turning three: It seems only weeks ago I was bringing her home and now all this time has gone by and she’s bigger and wiser and such a great kid. Her birthday is a happy occasion. Parties are always stressful for me because I try to make them these big blowouts. But she’s at the age where she appreciates it now and she’s excited.

On being a dad: It’s hard work and time consuming but it’s worth it when I hear her laugh. All my friends are out in bars, but I don’t miss it. In fact, I’m morphing into my parents — I’ve become corny and sensible.

On missing her mother: She misses her mom so much. Right now she’s at the age where she’s noticing that other children in television and in books have moms. She said to me the other day quite seriously, “Where’s my mom?” It was sad but I explained to her, “Your mommy is in the clouds and you’ll see her again one day.”

If you can stand it, click on the photos below for more grotesque shots of Larry, likely raking in the cash, posing with Dannielynn:

With apologies to Liam McDermott and both of Denise Richards' daughters, the most exploited celebrity baby alive has a birthday today.

Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead turns three years old, an occasion her pimp-like father will likely celebrate by taking her to mom Anna Nicole Smith's grave and inviting photographers along for the ride.

That's just how he rolls.

A year ago, Larry Birkhead milked this occasion for all the money he could, placing Dannielynn's adorable mug on the cover of a supermarket tabloid. It's the gift that keeps on giving cash into his bank account and years of therapy to his child.

Today, we just wanna wish Dannielynn a safe, happy, healty, unexploitive birthday. Hurry up and turn 18 so you can emancipate yourself from your money-hungry dad.

** Update: Dannielynn actually turned three years old on September 7. But we stand by everything else in this story!

Positing his daughter in front of her mother's grave, and inviting a cameraman along for the ride, isn't enough for Larry Birkhead.

The father of Anna Nicole Smith's two-year-old daughter, Dannielynn, sat down for an interview with E! earlier this week. In the clip below, Birkhead gushes about the tyke he's likely making money off of via exclusives such as this.

"When I see Dannielynn and she is just a spitting image of her mother, that's a little bit...I don't want to say eerie, but it is a little odd - and it is kind of comforting as well."

We don't want to be morbid, but is it really a good idea to parade an infant in front of the camera? Especially when that infant's mother fell into a life of drugs and alcohol, rumored to brought on by her exposure to fame and fortune at a young age?

Click on the following pics of Dannielynn, meanwhile, to see if you really can spot her resemblance to Anna Nicole:

Larry Birkhead has posed with his daughter for yet another celebrity gossip magazine story.

It's almost as if the father of Dannielynn is receiving cash payments for each of these opportunities.

In the latest issue of Life & Style, Birkhead says that he'd love to give his daughter a sibling at some point.

“I want to have another child. It would be tough for me to do right now, but in a couple of years, definitely.”

But what if Larry doesn't meet someone who is attracted to his need to pose for every tabloid that calls? Will he explore adoption?

“Right now I’m so busy making money off my daughter taking care of Dannielynn, I don’t have time to get out there and date,” he said. “So while I’d love to have another baby of my own, I’d be happy to adopt a little brother or sister for her.”

Dannielynn Birkhead recently turned two years old. And she received the present all children pine for:

Unwanted celebrity gossip attention!

While the amount of cash, if any, left to him in Anna Nicole Smith's will remains unclear, Larry Birkhead is taking advantage of some of the opportunities made available to him because of his daughter.

This time, she graces the cover of Us Weekly, as Larry shares Dannielynn's first word with the world. It was "mama."

Good for Dannielynn! If our father dragged us to a photo shoot for such a pathetic tabloid - which, it seems reasonable to assume, likely paid him for his time - we wouldn't say his name, either.

Remember when Birkhead actually had Entertainment Tonight cameras follow him and his daughter to Anna Nicole's grave? Disgraceful.

We haven't seen much of little Dannielynn and celebrity gossip-loving father Larry Birkhead in awhile.

But they showed up again this weekend, with Dannielynn having grown into an adorable toddler and Birkhead not having changed a bit:

He's still pimping his tyke, presumably for wads of cash. What a great guy!

Larry Birkhead probably earns one hundred dollars from the paparazzi every time he kisses his daughter. So we've heard.

Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead will soon be the most popular person in every sandbox across the country.

Yesterday, a judge in Los Angeles declared the child the sole heir of Anna Nicole Smith's estate. This means the little one will be able to afford a few new (gold-plated) pacifiers.

"We and Mr. Stern always believed that Anna Nicole never intended to disinherit her daughter. I'm pleased to say this chapter in the saga is closed," said the lawyer for Howard K. Stern.

A trust has been set up for Dannielynn, with Larry Birkhead and Howard serving as co-trustees.

We supported Larry Birkhead for so long.

In his custody battle with Howard K. Stern for the rights Dannielynn, he seemed like a genuinely concerned parent. Anna Nicole Smith was wealthy? It was like Larry didn't even notice.

Now, however, Birkhead is making sure he's noticed everywhere he goes with his daughter. Including the cemetery.

As shown here, Birkhead has seemingly sold images of himself and Dannielynn visiting the grave of Anna Nicole. Moreover, Entertainment Tonight will run an interview with the supposed mourner, documenting the events in his life since Anna's passing.

We're not sure why. Everyone has seen them all already. Birkhead has made sure of that.

Can you imagine the family of Heath Ledger acting like Larry Birkhead? Stop being a celebrity, Larry. Go be a father.

This picture would be a lot cuter if Larry Birkhead hadn't taken his daughter shopping on Robertson Blvd., one of the most popular locales for entertainment news reporters.

We've been major supporters of Birkhead throughout his battle over Dannielynn.

But first rumors swirled that he may star in a reality show alongside his baby... and now he takes her out among crazed celebrity photographers?

The guy is starting to seem like the Spencer Pratt of fatherhood. Will he be dating Tiffany Dupont next?

Congratulations to Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead! The beautiful tyke turned a year old over the weekend.

In honor of the occasion, Lara Spencer - pictured here with the proud father and birthday honoree - of celebrity gossip show The Insider spoke with Larry Birkhead:

On what he'd say to Anna Nicole Smith about Dannielynn:
"I would say, 'I hope you're proud of the way she's growing up and getting big.'"

On what he hopes to give Dannielynn for her first birthday:
"Give her another happy day in life. I know she's not going to understand everything that's going on but just something that she can say one day, 'Wow, what a cool party, what a cool dad!'"

On if Dannielynn is starting to talk:
"We've heard her say "da-da" a few times."

* The Hollywood Gossip note: Rumor has it Jayden James Federline has said the same thing, followed by the words: "rescue me!"

On keeping her mother and brother's memories alive:
"I show her pictures all the time and I say, 'This is your mommy and this is your brother Daniel.' We talk about them all the time."

On whether she resembles her late brother Daniel:
"Yeah, sometimes. Especially when she gets out of the bath and her hair is parted to the side like a little boy, she looks a lot like Daniel."
