A new book has revealed that 1950’s bombshell Marilyn Monroe was attracted to women.
According to RadarOnline, Marilyn Monroe: My Little Secret suggests that the actress had encounters with Joan Crawford, Barbara Stanwyck, Marlene Dietrich and Elizabeth Taylor.
Author Tony Jerris said the blonde even had a relationship with a 16-year-old Jane Lawrence in 1955.
“Jane met Marilyn when she was 12 because her adopted father ran the legal department at RKO studio,” he said.
“They soon became close friends after realizing that they had been in the same orphanage at different times of their lives, even though Marilyn was 14 years older, and neither of them knew their birth fathers. They became close friends because there were so many similarities in their past.
“Jane always struggled with her sexuality, she talked to Marilyn about this many times and she was very understanding. She told her, ‘Whatever your sexual preference is, it means nothing – love is love,'” explained Jerris, who first met Lawrence in 2001.

Lawrence told the author about the sexual encounter between her and the then 29-year-old Marilyn. Lawrence said that she visited the Some Like It Hot Actress in her home and things became raunchy.
“The next few minutes became hazy, surreal and dream-like. My pulse leaped as Marilyn kissed my thigh again… she then leaned in and kissed me full on the lips, very softly and very slowly. I was nearly hyperventilating,” said Lawrence in the memoir.
“We moved through the living room into the bedroom,” she remembered.
