She reportedly earned only $50 for the photo shoot that Hefner later bought for $500. As she wrote in her memoir: "I never even received a thank you from all those who made millions off a nude Marilyn photograph. I even had to buy a copy of the magazine to see myself in it."
This is not a cute story. Hefner bought the plot next to Monroe to "spend eternity with her" w/out her consent after exploiting her body. https://t.co/VwHQoeZhYF

In a lifetime of creepy things, Hugh Hefner buying the plot next to Marilyn Monroe to lurk beside her for all eternity is the creepiest.

sorry, I think Hugh Hefner is gross. and paying to be buried next to Marilyn Monroe (who he didn't know) is creep level 1 million.

But to me there's something rather poetic in the fact that we'll be buried in the same place. And that cemetery also has other meanings and connections for me," he said, pointing out that Dorothy Stratten, the Playboy Bunny who was murdered in 1980 by her estranged husband, is also buried there.
