In a dream sequence to air during Gossip Girl’s 100th episode on January 30 (8 p.m. ET on CW), Serena (Blake Lively) struts her stuff as the late Marilyn Monroe during a rendition of “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.”

The blonde beauty, who’s surrounded by her male suitors including Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley), Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford), Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), Prince Louis (Hugo Becker) and several others, is decked out in piles of dazzling jewelry and a red strapless gown with matching opera-length gloves.

Also in the montage? Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) dressed as another late, old Hollywood icon, Audrey Hepburn.

Yahoo TV writes, “According to executive producer Josh Safran this Marilyn number has been something he’s wanted to film since the show’s first season. ‘It’s something we’ve never done before. From Season 1, I said, ‘I want to do this.’ But it just wasn’t the right time. I’ve been pushing it for five years, and it finally happened.’”

As I was going through my google alerts weeding out non-news worthy articles I stumbled upon something sort of interesting. Which I haven’t heard of this until now but I guess there is word going around that of film makers are thinking of making another Marilyn Monroe bio-pic film. Yes a Marilyn film has just been made and released, titling My Week With Marilyn starring Michelle Williams as our lovely Marilyn Monroe. But this time instead of focusing on her trip to London and filming The Prince and the Showgirl, it will focus on her life and tragic death. They are also seeking Michelle Williams for the role of Marilyn as well. Here is a snippet from the news:

MICHELLE Williams might be getting another week with Marilyn! The former Dawson’s Creek actress is said to be wanted for a second movie about Marilyn Monroe, this time focusing on her tragic death. “The story of Marilyn Monroe is something that many producers have wanted to put on the big screen and now may be the right time,” says a Hollywood insider. “Michelle was sensational in My Week with Marilyn and she is wanted for another project that would be a full biopic of the star. It’s got to the point where if Michelle doesn’t do it, the film may never get made.”

Images and copyrights from Marilyn Monroe’s first photo shoot sold for $352,000 at an auction that included items from Lady Gaga and John Lennon.

The photos, taken in 1946 when she was still Norma Jeane Dougherty, were the highlight of the Beverly Hills auction known as “Icons & Idols,” Julien’s Auctions spokeswoman Caroline Galloway tells The Associated Press.

The photos come with negatives and the rare right to sell and distribute them. A judge in September ruled they must be auctioned to settle debts of photographer Joseph Jasgur.

A Lady Gaga dress sold for $31,250, and the prop gun used in her video for “Born This way” went for $7,680.

A 1969 caricature John Lennon drew of himself and Yoko Ono went for $90,000.
