新書爆夢露是同性戀 曾與多名女星有染大綱

Marilyn Monroe, the world's number one sex symbol and the most desirable woman on the planet, was not the man-eating siren that her image suggested, it has been revealed.

Fifty years after her death, an author who met the star has questioned her sexual identity.

Although she married and divorced three times, she was - though few people are aware of the fact - a lesbian by inclination.

She admitted to sexual encounters with actresses Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck, Marlene Dietrich and Elizabeth Taylor, as well as with both her acting coaches, Natasha Lytess and Paula Strasberg.

Only a day before Jean Negulesco, who directed her in 'How To Marry A Millionaire', was due to visit her, Monroe was found dead.

"I still think I might have saved her if I could have got to her in time," the Daily Mail quoted him as saying.

"You know what was wrong with her, don't you?

"Her whole existence was a search for identity, and her sexual identity was a complete lie.

"She told me once she had never had an orgasm with a man in her entire life," he said.

Another of those who worked with Monroe, actress Celeste Holm, who appeared with her in 'All About Eve', and who died last Sunday, said that Marilyn's sexual problems were rooted in her traumatic childhood.

Born illegitimately in 1926 to an unmarried mother in the charity ward of the Los Angeles General Hospital, she was originally known as Norma Jeane Mortenson, the child of a 24-year-old film negative cutter, Gladys Pearl Monroe Mortenson, who developed schizophrenia.

Both of Gladys's parents, Otis Elmer Monroe and Della Monroe Grainger, lived out their twilight years in mental institutions, while Gladys's brother, Marion, was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.

So it is small wonder that the child who became Marilyn Monroe grew up with a deep-rooted fear of genetic insanity.

This, according to Celeste Holm, gave Marilyn a lifelong terror of pregnancy.

In addition to her fear of giving birth to an abnormal child, Marilyn suffered from devastating bouts of endometriosis, a gynaecological condition causing intense pelvic pain, severe cramps and painful periods.

It made normal sexual intercourse difficult and uncomfortable.

"Because of this Marilyn was never able to enjoy sex with men," Holm said.

"She was afraid of it, and turned to older women as sexual role models," she had said.有爆料稱，瑪麗蓮•夢露，世界頭號性感女神，地球上男人最想得到的女人，並非如她動人形象所暗示的那樣是吞噬男人的女妖。

夢露去世50年之後的今天，一個曾與這位巨星見過面的人在書中對她的性取向提出了質疑。

她雖然先後離婚三次，但確實有同性戀傾向，這一事實很少有人知道。

她承認曾和多名女性發生性關係，其中包括演員瓊•克勞馥、芭芭拉•斯坦威克、瑪琳•黛德麗以及伊麗莎白•泰勒；還有她的兩位演戲指導娜塔莎•萊提絲和寶拉•斯特拉伯格。

讓•尼古拉斯格曾執導夢露主演的電影《如何嫁給百萬富翁》，就在他要去拜訪夢露的前一天，夢露被發現已經死亡。

“我至今仍覺得如果我能及時去看她，也許她就不會死。”每日郵報引用他的話說。

“你知道她出了什麼問題，對嗎？”

“她一生都被自己的性取向困擾。她呈現在公衆視線裏的正常的性取向，完全就是個假象。”

“她曾經親口告訴過我，她從未在跟男人發生關係時達到過高潮。”他說。

和夢露合作過的一位女星賽萊斯特•霍爾姆於上週日去世，她曾和夢露一同出演影片《彗星美人》。她說：“夢露性取向問題的根源在於她飽受創傷的童年。”

1926年，未婚母親格拉迪斯•佩爾•夢露•莫天森在洛杉磯綜合醫院慈善病房產下夢露，取名諾瑪•珍妮•莫天森。夢露的母親當時24歲，是一名負片剪接師，後來患上精神分裂症。

格拉迪斯的雙親奧蒂斯•埃爾默•夢露和德拉•夢露•格拉傑的垂暮之年都在精神病院度過，她的兄弟馬裏恩也被確診患上偏執型精神分裂症。

所以，後來成爲瑪麗蓮•夢露的諾瑪一直對遺傳精神疾病有着根深蒂固的恐懼，這一點也不奇怪。

賽萊斯特•霍爾姆說，這一點讓夢露一輩子都害怕懷孕。

除了害怕生出不正常的孩子，夢露還患有嚴重的子宮內膜異位症，這種婦科病發作時會導致盆腔劇烈疼痛和嚴重痙攣，還會引發痛經。

這導致性交不適，難以進行正常性生活。

霍爾姆說：“因此夢露從來沒能從男人那裏得到過性愛享受。”

她說：“她對此感到恐懼，轉而把年長的女人當做性榜樣。”
