This is pretty obviously a non-story, but something sort of fun that amused me today. Apparently Marilyn Monroe liked to partake in the cannabis. At least on a few occasions. I'm not sure why this is a surprise to anyone, as drugs were as prevalent if not more in old Hollywood than new Hollywood. There's a picture floating around on the internet of a video someone took of Marilyn at a party firing it up.


The video is going to be sold on Ebay later this week and will probably go for quite a bit. Apparently it was discovered in someone's attic. Why anyone videotaped Marilyn at a party smoking a joint is beyond me, but I'm guessing it was the 1950's equivalent of "Dude Marilyn Monroe was not over your house." To which you could then say, "Oh yeah, well look at this video!"

If only the Kennedys hadn't had Monroe killed we could have gotten her on the cover of High Times.
