An unnamed businessman has spent $1.5 million to purchase a 15-minute long 16mm film of movie legend Marilyn Monroe performing oral sex on an unknown male.The film is an illegal copy of a clip the FBI obtained in the '60s while J. Edgar Hoover was attempting to discredit the Kennedy family. Hoover tried to prove that the man receiving oral pleasure in the film was either John or Bobby Kennedy, but the man's face never comes into the frame, and the effort was ultimately dropped.
Collector Keya Morgan learned about the tape from an FBI agent, who told him of the informant who had originally tipped the feds off to its existence. The FBI confiscated the original tape in the '60s, but the informant had already copied it. Morgan brokered the sale of the copy, which was in the possession of the informant's son.
Marilyn's one-time husband Joe DiMaggio allegedly once attempted to purchase the copy for $25,000 but was turned-down by the owner. The new owner says he will never sell the tape, but intends locking it up forever.
