Chicago bids goodbye to Marilyn Monroe… again
Seward Johnson’s controversial statue titled “Forever Marilyn” in Chicago is no more. There will be no more peeking under the skirt in her famous pose atop the subway grate from “The Seven Year Itch”, or posing for photos between those statuesque legs. The statue was dismantled last night and removed from Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, where it was displayed since July 2011.

au revoir cheri
