Marilyn Monroe Sex Tape Auction

"An employee of Butterfields auction house displays a copy of a model release signed by Marilyn Monore in front of one of the photographs of Monroe during a Hollywood photo shoot in 1949, in Los Angeles, March 22, 2001. A 15-minute film of Marilyn Monroe engaging in an oral sex act with an unidentified man will be kept from public view by a New York businessman who has bought it for $1.5 million, the broker of the deal said on Monday."

The times really do not change do they? I was just happy to read that the auction winner has decided not to profit off of this tape or release it to the internet.

I do have to admit I find it amazing how so many people both men, and women are so enamoured of someone who has been dead for over 40 years!
