Don't tell me the man in picture No. 7 never inhaled.
Nov 17, 2012 @ 03:13:13
and? so what if he did? lol
Nov 17, 2012 @ 11:04:25
I have no problem with him inhaling. I am pro-hemp etc, but he clearly did have a problem with people knowing that he inhaled as he denied it profusely… Is what I am getting at.

I mean I don't have a problem with it, but I don't see how showing a picture of a 15-year old topless is legal.
Nov 17, 2012 @ 16:42:57
Nude photos of minors isn't really illegal unless their provocative and of a sexual nature.

Arnold was 29 and she was 15 .. that is wrong
Feb 02, 2013 @ 16:59:55
Ya well Arnold dosent seem to give a shit what he does or says anyway…I wonder does he have a 16 yr old daughter now and what would he think if she was naked in a pool with a 29 yr old man?
Mar 26, 2013 @ 07:40:55
I didn't even realize that she didn't have a top on till I read your comment!!! lol

There has actually been a lot of debate about whether this situation was for real. At the time of her death, Marilyn's personal library was catalogued and it suggests that she had a very pensive side.
We do however have the words of photographer Eve Arnold about how this photo came about:
"We worked on a beach on Long Island. She was visiting Norman Rosten the poet…. I asked her what she was reading when I went to pick her up (I was trying to get an idea of how she spent her time). She said she kept Ulysses in her car and had been reading it for a long time. She said she loved the sound of it and would read it aloud to herself to try to make sense of it — but she found it hard going. She couldn’t read it consecutively. When we stopped at a local playground to photograph she got out the book and started to read while I loaded the film. So, of course, I photographed her. It was always a collaborative effort of photographer and subject where she was concerned — but almost more her input."

I used to leave a copy by my bed. It was a joke.
Nov 17, 2012 @ 03:39:09
Einstein always carried his pipe, Marilyn Monroe wasn't as ditzy as she was made out to be and miss kinski a grown women now, what arnie doing with her?
Nov 17, 2012 @ 09:36:58
Great historical pics, be good to see some more, thanks.
Nov 18, 2012 @ 05:20:51
Saludos to the editor in chief. Great stuff!
Nov 18, 2012 @ 11:46:38
Somethings never change like Hillary and Arnie. Doubt seriously that Marilyn actually read James Joyce and who knew Stalin was such a hottie???
Nov 18, 2012 @ 17:07:53
Fantastic! I love these historical photographs.
Nov 18, 2012 @ 20:46:50
Brilliant collection of pictures really enjoyed them and who cares who inhaled or otherwise Nicky.
Nov 28, 2012 @ 10:04:47
Never knew Albert Einstein was soo hot!

In reallity John Paul II was NOT assassinated on 13 th May1981. What really happened was a trial of assassination that schocked the world made by Mehmet Ali Agca. See details in.

Marilyn Monroe was an avid reader and one of her lifelong ambitions was to better herself. Anyone who expresses doubt of the veracity of that photo is telling us more about themselves than about her.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and 15 years old Nastassja Kinski, Sorry honey but I fu*ked the Maid!
Feb 02, 2013 @ 16:45:34
Can you believe Klaus Kinski produced the hottie from Cat People?
Me neither
Feb 02, 2013 @ 17:04:03
I absolutely love the photo of Marilyn Monroe.She just looks like any normal woman enjoying a good book.What I meant by normal is that she wanted a normal life but her life was anything but normal.Did you know she wore between the sizes of 12 to 14 in pants? Nowadays they would be hounding her to get down to a size 4 or less…what a messed up world we live in when people only care about the outside and not what really means something…the heart and mind of a person.
Feb 02, 2013 @ 19:44:59
You… you don't know what you're talking about, do you?
Feb 04, 2013 @ 04:40:17
Please elaborate.
Mar 27, 2013 @ 21:34:00
A 1950s size 14 these days would be labeled an "8". The labeling changed around 1970. This being said, people are fatter today than 50 years ago, more processed food out there.

I love these photos. I didn't know it was a policeman's duty to measure bathing suits though. I had to lol at that picture. I'm glad most western society has moved on from misogyny and sexism.
May 18, 2013 @ 21:59:19
I thought this was a questionable scenario too.

I love that picture of Kurt Cobain as he's eating. He had an undiagnosed stomach condition. This was when he was young, broke and touring, before everything got bad.

The Clintons look like hippies… And than, one day in 1999 they decided to bomb Serbia because of natural resources and money! Fuck them and fuck the EU!
