The City suddenly got Windier.
For those of you unfamiliar with Marilyn Monroe, she was a minor actress who died 49 years ago. She briefly dated Anton Szandor LaVey, founder of the church of Satan, and made some sort of arrangement with him so that she would never be forgotten.

Well don’t that just pump sunshine up yer skirt....
Did Oprah commission this to sit outside her office?
My first thought upon seeing the statue was, “How could they miss the leg shape that badly?”
Sculptural subtle porn... to be sure..
It would make a nice display outside a porn shop, not so sure it is appropriate for the street. The fact that most people are attracted to it;s prurient interest says something, about 75% of the pictures are showing people looking to see if she was wearing her panties, which most times she wasn’t.
Too bad Marilyn died before Teddy could get his shot at her and make it a true family affair.
I wonder what the taxpayers paid for that, seeing Chicago is a couple billion in the hole, and the state of Illinois even worse.
Marilyn Monroe is a legend. In her own lifetime she created a myth of what a poor girl from a deprived background could attain. For the entire world she became a symbol of the eternal female. Marilyn Monroe is known throughout America and the world as being one of the most popular actors of all time. She was undoubtedly one of the most glamorous, popular, and controversial movie stars to ever appear on the screen. With a poor family background and a rough upbringing no one would have thought that she would have grown up to become such an influential person. Marilyn Monroe became one of the most famous women in America during the 1950's and early 60's due to the blonde bombshell image she created and turned into an empire, her contributions to Hollywood, including major film and media appearances, and the lasting legacy and impression she left on America.

Incidentally, the famous Marilyn Monroe white halter ‘subway dress’ was just auctioned off for 4.6 million dollars.

Give me you tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning for an upskirt peak...
Sounds like an urban legend.
I think you mean Jane Mansfield.
>>One incident happened after her skirt blowing scene in The Seven Year Itch. After storming off the set during the scene, Joe returned home and after Marilyn's arrival later that evening. He allegedly assaulted Marilyn for the humiliation he felt during her display. <<
