In 1959 a young US Naval officer was a guest on the set of the Marilyn Monroe/Jack Lemmon/Tony Curtis movie Some Like It Hot after a visit from Monroe to his San Diego Naval base. While on the set he took a short amount of 8mm film footage of the sex symbol, that also included a little bit of Curtis and director Billy Wilder. Forty-nine years later, the lucky military man had passed away, leaving that 2.5 minutes of film, in its original Kodak box, to his daughter, now living in Australia.

Hey I'm new to this group and if this is a repost I'm sorry, just tell me if it is I'll just delete it.
This is an edited version of Last Talk With a Lonely Girl: Marilyn Monroe by Richard Meryman, first published in Life magazine, August 17 1962
Ever since she was fired from Something's Got to Give, Marilyn Monroe has kept an almost disdainful silence. As far as her troubles with 20th Century Fox were concerned, she simply said she had been too sick to work - not wilfully tardy and truant as the producer charged.

As far as her troubles with 20th Century Fox were concerned, she simply said she had been too sick to work - not wilfully tardy and truant as the producer charged. While 20th Century Fox and her lawyers were negotiating for her to resume work on the movie, Marilyn was thinking about broader aspects of her career - about the rewards and burdens of fame bestowed on her by fans who paid $200 million to see her films, about drives that impel her, and about echoes in her present life of her childhood in foster homes.

I guess most sex tapes eventually see the light of day, even if it is a million years later. A video featuring Marilyn Monroe giving oral to an unidentified dude was just sold to a New York businessman for $1.5 million. And I thought the $30 a month membership fees for porn sites was expensive.

:star: Here are some rare Marilyn Moments that I thought would be quite entertaining to show you all! What's inside: Did you know that she had a basset hound named Hugo or a poodle named Maf? Did you know what her favorite personal remembrance was?

:star: We've all had a dose of celebrity gossip by now and we know that rumors run ramped in Hollywood. Since the death of Marilyn Monroe in 1962 a lot of rumors have been circulating and have even been published by people who Marilyn didn't even know! But these rumors have been put to rest over time by the people closest to Marilyn.

Village Voice columnist Michael Musto pays homage to the infamous Lindsay Lohan as Marilyn Monroe photographs.
Says Musto, “The slinky Lindsay said she did 250 crunches the night before her shoot. Well, I did 250 Nestlé Crunches.”
Well done!

This dress is the most romantic one i own. Bought at a flea market in sydney. The embroidering and the cut makes me think of an indian-inspired marilyn monroe.
