Screen icon Monroe had become "unrecognizable," according to her undertaker
MARILYN MONROE looked more like a horror movie fright on her deathbed than a love goddess, dishes Hollywood mortician Allan Abbott, who reveals the Some Like It Hot siren suffered from saggy breasts and frizzy, badly dyed hair and her famous face was covered in ugly bruises as she lay stone-cold on his embalming table!
The 36-year-old sex queen was found at home lifeless and naked, face down in bed and holding a phone with an empty pill bottle next to her on Aug. 5, 1962.
In his tell-all book about his work as a celebrity undertaker, the co-founder of Hollywood's Abbott & Hast Morticians says the gruesome corpse he inspected looked “awful” and "unrecognizable."
"When we removed the sheet covering her, it was almost impossible to believe this was the body of Marilyn Monroe,” says Abbott, whose firm also handled Natalie Wood's funeral. "She looked like a very average, aging woman who had not been taking very good care of herself.”
Her gorgeous face was covered with purple blotches due to lividity, the settling and discoloration of blood.
