  • Some like it not: LA bars demolition of Marilyn Monroe home

    Some like it not: LA bars demolition of Marilyn Monroe home

    The Los Angeles home where Marilyn Monroe died was declared a historic landmark on Wednesday, thwarting plans by its current owners to demolish the property.

    The house was home to the “Some Like It Hot” screen siren for the final six months of her life up to her death from a drug overdose in 1962.

    More than half a century on, Monroe remains one of the most beloved figures in US pop culture, and fans as well as conservationists have closely followed a row over the future of the home.

    Property heiress Brinah Milstein and her reality TV producer husband Roy Bank bought the Spanish Colonial-style home in the swanky Brentwood neighbourhood last summer for $8.35 million.

    The couple owned the house next door and intended to combine the two properties. That construction would have involved razing the Monroe home.

    But when a demolition permit was issued last September, a furore quickly followed, and local politicians moved quickly to designate the building protected status.

    Last month, the owners sued the city of Los Angeles for “illegal and unconstitutional conduct.”

    Their petition noted Monroe had “occasionally” lived in the home for “a mere six months”, and the couple claim that more than a dozen previous owners since 1962 have already changed the building beyond recognition.

    Those objections were overruled Wednesday, as city councillors approved the designation of the house as a historic cultural monument.

    Monroe bought the 3,000-square-foot single-story hacienda in 1962 just after her divorce from playwright Arthur Miller.

    “There is no other person or place in the city of Los Angeles as iconic as Marilyn Monroe and her Brentwood home,” said councillor Traci Park, whose district includes the house in question.

    “Some of the most world-famous images ever taken of her were in that home, on those grounds and near her pool.

    “There is likely no woman in history or culture who captures the imagination of the public the way Marilyn Monroe did. Even all these years later, her story still resonates and inspires many of us today.”

    Monroe’s smouldering looks and breathy delivery made her one of the most bankable movie stars of her era.

    The “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” star was linked during her lifetime with some of the most eligible men of her era, including president John F. Kennedy, famously singing “Happy Birthday, Mr President” at Madison Square Garden.

    Mahira Khan remembers her mamu with heartfelt tribute

    In a heartfelt Instagram post, Pakistani actor Mahira Khan honored the memory of her beloved uncle, Akber Khan, who passed away two weeks ago.

    The Raees star shared her sorrow at his death, posting fond memories with a series of old photographs, highlighting their special relationship.

    “My one and only Mamu. It’s hard to imagine that my handsome, larger-than-life Mamu is no more,” Mahira wrote. She reflected on their unique bond and his irreplaceable presence in her life. “I’ve heard all Mamus are special, but it feels like mine was the most special. He gave us the most beautiful childhood, he gave his mother unconditional love and respect, he was a father to my Khala and my mother’s soulmate,” she wrote. “He never complained. He spoke kindly. He was invested in your life and wrote to you when he felt strongly about something. He didn’t miss a single ‘Good morning precious’ message.”

    She remembered the laughter and music her uncle brought into their lives, mentioning the joy he spread. “He gave us laughter and music. He gave me Kishpa and Aly bhai. But most of all, he gave us my angel Mani… his ‘Jannoo’ as he called her.” These memories show the deep impact Akber had on his family.

    Concluding her tribute, Mahira expressed the ongoing pain of his loss. “It’s been two weeks since you left us. Still, this is tough to write, tougher than I imagined. We all miss you, Mamu… always will.” Mahira shared his favorite song, Dil Ka Haal Sune Dilwala, recalling their happy times singing and dancing to it.
