Marilyn Monroe collector says Kim Kardashian was gifted a ‘fake’ lock of the icon’s hair
msn.comMarilyn Monroe historian and collector Scott Fortner has claimed that Ripley’s Believe It or Not gifted Kim Kardashian a “fake” piece of Monroe’s hair.
On 2 May, the reality star arrived at the Met Gala in a gown previously worn by Monroe in 1962 when she serenaded John F Kennedy on his 45th birthday.
