To give your take the proper punch, I think **skank **is spelled with a “k”. I am NOT a spelling NAZI.
I looked through the pictures, and I hardly recognize her. I also didn’t realize she had such large breasts, but that’s what surgery is for. And any scars she has were obviously brushed out.
I can’t look at her without thinking of all the drugs and booze that’s wrecked her life. Only a week before these photos were taken she had a bad, bad case of meth mouth. Her Teeth were literally rotting. A quick trip to the dentist hid the damage while she got these photos made. http://gawker.com/meth-mouth/
I’m more disappointed with Playboy. I heard Hef demanded that she reshoot because the first batch of photos wasn’t up to their standards. Ripping off the famous Marilyn photos were the best they could do? :dubious:
What happened to the he full monty she promised (tits, twat, ass)? It was reported that Playboy insisted that she go the full Monty. Not anything nasty like Hustler, but at least something should show.
What’s most sad is she surely thinks this is a shot in the arm for her career. I give it about 6 to 12 months before someone “steals” and releases a sex tape.
As mentioned (and linked) in the Gawker article, her 2008 *New York Magazine *Marilyn homage was actually better (and included the freckles).
I can only imagine, aceplace57, that in the end Playboy figured they had already so much of a sunk investment in this feature that they might as well go ahead with what they could get and be done with her. Another example of the sad twilight of the institution. One would think Hef of all people would be more protective of the iconic Marylin image.
Wow. I’m amazed. I guess the size is what threw me. I never remember her having such large breasts. And, given her drug addictions, she tended to look undernourished to me. Don’t women’s breasts take a big hit when the owner is losing weight?
I looked and she still has her freckles. The light and “soft” style of the period photography of Monroe is what is diminishing them. But, they are there.
I don’t think she ever had “meth mouth”. Her meth mouth looks better than mine and I have never done drugs. I also find it hard to believe the “professional” opinion of some Hollywood paper. That being said, she really does not have a whole lot left other than her appearance. So, getting her teeth whitened, which is what it basically looked like, would not surprise me. All you have to do is look at all the Hollywood stars and see how many have the “big teeth” look due receding gums from excessive whitening.
Also, IIRC, she is a smoker. If she were to put the butt to the center of her lips to avoid the “lip drag” that smokers get when they stick a cig in a corner, then the two front teeth would get tainted from the tar more than the others.
I don’t think these pictures are awful or anything, but I feel her biggest misstep was not bringing back the red hair. That’s the one thing you hear people complain about the most about her for years-- the awful blonde hair.
Thanks for posting the pics. I just realized that the last time I remember seeing her in a picture was when she was in “The Parent Trap”. No wonder I don’t remember that body. Quite amazing, actually… they actually appear real. The only pic that they look like they might be fake is the first one, but the rest of those pics show a real set of breasts.
Looking at her now is indeed sad. She was actually pretty.
