Confiscated Marilyn Monroe Sex Tape to be Auctioned Off


Move over Hilton and Kardashian, the original fame starved starlet sex tape is to be auctioned in Buenos Aires and starting price for the 6 minutes tape is $500K. The 16mm 6-minute film that shows a pre-Marilyn Norma Jeane Baker, or a really good doppelganger, “masturbating and having sex with an unknown man.”

The current film “will be the highlight of the first Buenos Aires Film Collecting Fair,” which takes place Aug. 6-7 at the Borges Cultural Centre. Event producer Mikal Barsa, who also sold the other copy in 2001 to a private collector for $1.2 million, said he expects this copy to go for more than double the asking price.

The previous Monroe sex tape—a 15-minute silent believed to have been shot during the '50s showing Monroe performing oral sex on an unidentified man was reportedly confiscated by J. Edgar Hoover during the mid 60s in an effort to implicate John F. Kennedy and/or Robert F. Kennedy—sold for $1.5 million in 2008 to a New York businessman.
