Dear Deswhere are you? We haven't heard you in a while? Anyway, absurd story by Mature. The footage is there for all to see. Monroe curtsies and Mature stands next to her with both hands at his sides. The dress was eye-poppingly low, but she was clearly well supported and taped up for maximum effect and "foundation." It would have taken a lot of "action" to make one of those puppies fall out.

Oh, DesI'm sorry. Last year at this time I was battling pneumonia, so I know how depressing it can be. Get better soon!
Ah, that golden dress! But MM would never have gone the "wardrobe malfunction" route. She had one shoulder strap popThe Olivier press conference in New Yorkbut that was a clever way of letting the press and public know she hadn't gotten "high hat." She was still sexy MM, despite The Method. And there was no danger of her breast being exposed. Her clothes were truly fitted to her! (Her cleavage was even more on display when she attended the opening of Miller's play in London. But again, it was securely anchored within the red velvet bodice.)
She does fall out of her flimsy silk dress for a second in "The Misfits" bending over Clark Gable after he stumbles drunkenly. -

I just watched this clip on youtube of Jayne & Mickey from the 1958 Golden Globes and did notice a blonde sitting up front in the audience, but this blonde haired woman can't be MM because she has shoulder length hair. I've never known MM to wear her hair that long, and if I do a google search on MM golden globes 1958 nothing comes up 2000& surely there would be pics if she had attended the ceremony.

As for the pics of MM & Jm, I too have been fascinated by them & they story behind them. There are 3 that I have seen so far. 1 with Jayne making her way over to Marilyn, another photo of JM behind MM (with JM touching MM's chair), in this photo looks like the photographer tried to get their attention, with only MM looking up, as JM looking down at MM..

and then the 3rd pic is the on the OP mentioned. I have often wondered why there are no pics of the 2 actresses standing next to each other. Maybe there are others from this series that have yet to surface.

SorryMM was not at the 1961 Golden Globes. 1960when she won for "Some Like It Hot" and 1962she won as "World Female Movie Favorite."
Most of 1961 was spent in New York, recuperating from various hospitalizations or in Flordia w Joe D. -

Monroe is certainly doing her best to ignore Jayne. I mean, JM is inches from her, and how on earth do you miss something like that?! Marilyn had been very hurt by the characterization of her in "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter," written by a man she considered a friend, George Axelrod. So, while she might not have had a personal animus toward Jayne, she wasn't going to be photographed acknowledging a girl who had mocked her on Broadway and was co-opting the more obvious aspects of her image.

When Axelrod come on board to adapt "Bus Stop" for the screen, Marilyn met with him. "I saw your play" she said without elaboration.
