It is always so wonderful to see a new Marilyn Monroe video. This is a home movie and was in an attic for years, showing Marilyn possibly smoking pot. She looks beautiful (of course), rested and comfortable, having a nice time with her friends. Kudos to Keya Morgan, The purchaser, who approved its upload on the web so we all can see!

Bonnie Greer, American-born Author of the play about Marilyn Monroe and Ella Fitzgerald writes how she came up with the idea for her play. My fellow Marilyn Monroe impersonator friend, Suzie, plays Marilyn onstage. See the wonderful Times article here,

Great article, and I hope she brings this play to America, too.

I didnt post this earlier as I was out of town. From the Guardian in the UK, Mr. Curtis has now claimed Marilyn was preggers with his child, conceived during their time together while making the movie Some Like It Hot. Personally, I wish Mr. Curtis would just leave well enough alone. He’s a personable, sweet man when you meet him, but this “new insight” of his regarding Marilyn was a bad idea and in my judgement, in poor taste… see the article here:

Well, judge for yourself.

Lindsay Lohan has another new tat on her wrist! This one is a Marilyn Monroe quote, “Everyone’s a star and deserves the right to twinkle.” I think this makes around 5 on her arms/hands? Here’s the link: enjoy! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1194508/Lindsay-Lohan-unveils-latest-tattoo–does-say.html
Personally,I like the one on her index finger,”Shhh!” now that’s funny!

Marilyn visited the Rat Pack resort hangout “Cal-Neva” just before she died in 1962. Here’s the link regarding the foreclosure of the famous Rat-pack Resort:

This is such a sad event! it really is an historic landmark. Bummer…wish I had the nickels to buy it at auction.

On her inside arm is a rather large tat of Marilyn Monroe’s head. Nice work, and in an understated monotone. check it out:
