Marilyn Monroe once again covers the June issue of Vanity Fair.
It seems Vanity Fair loves her or maybe Vanity Fair loves dead celebrities more than the ones who are alive.
Anyhow, I’m a huge fan of Marilyn, so I don’t mind seeing her pictures.
But they haven’t scribbled anything new. So what is the point of saying the same old thing? Moreover, it’s really low to tell us how jealous Marilyn Monroe was.
“Fox [Studios] should start paying as much attention to me as they are paying to Elizabeth Taylor,” Marilyn Monroe told Lawrence Schiller.
“If I do come out of the pool with nothing on, I want your guarantee that when your pictures appear on the covers of magazines Elizabeth Taylor is not anywhere in the same issue.”
We actually need a break.
I really don’t know whether to call this hilarious or not. Vanity Fair needs to raise its standard. There are too many celebrities who are still alive. Why do they have to dissect those who are dead?
When Hugh Hefner agreed to pay $25,000 for a nude shot of Marilyn—the most money Playboy had ever paid for a photograph—Schiller thanked her for creating such a big payday, joking, “See what tits ’n’ ass can do?” “That’s how I got my house and swimming pool,” Marilyn said, laughing. “There isn’t anybody that looks like me without clothes on.”
We all know this part but I felt really sorry for Marilyn. “I could tell you all about rejection,” Marilyn said to Schiller. “Sometimes I feel my whole life has been one big rejection.” “But look at you now,” he said. “Exactly,” she replied. “Look at me now.” Confused, Schiller protested, “You’re a star! Your face is on magazine covers all over the world! Everyone knows Marilyn Monroe!” “Let me ask you, Larry Wolf—how many Academy Award nominations do I have?” “I don’t know,” he said. “I do,” she said. “None.”
And it just doesn’t end there. We all know she wanted to have babies. We all know how she felt about being called Marilyn & her views on being a sex symbol used to fluctuate every now & then.
“I never wanted to be Marilyn—it just happened. Marilyn’s like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane.”
“It’s still about nudity. Is that all I’m good for?” she demanded of Schiller. “I’d like to show that I can get publicity without using my ass or getting fired from a picture,” she continued. “I haven’t made up my mind yet.”
“It’s still about nudity. Is that all I’m good for?” she demanded of Schiller. “I’d like to show that I can get publicity without using my ass or getting fired from a picture,” she continued. “I haven’t made up my mind yet.”
And who knows maybe Schiller had been lying all along. There is so much contradiction. Just because she was a hyper sensitive person, it was easier to make different kind of stories about her.
She is dead & she has been dead for a long time. We need to respect that. I don’t see the point of printing this kind of crap. Yeah she was a sentimental & very sensitive person. She had faults, but then who doesn’t?
She was a beautiful woman & it’s saddening that her life was tragic. It’s even more saddening that some magazines can’t help being so low. I agree that actresses today aren’t as sexy & beautiful as Marilyn. And we would love to watch unseen photos of Marilyn anytime, but we are certainly not interested in stuff that we already know & photos that we have already seen.
I suspect this is how Marilyn will be jumping after reading so much crap about her.
