The image of Marilyn Monroe is everywhere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival — it’s part of the themed graphic of the 65th anniversary.

Here she is being hung by workers (and who doesn’t love hung bi workers?) at the Festival Palace.

That’s our Betty, topped with the Imperial State Crown, as though she’d just eaten margarine (some of you may remember that), and wearing the expression of a woman who needs two Tylenol, stat.

Her Majesty attended the State Opening of Parliament today, where she paraded through the Royal Gallery in the Palace of Westminster.

This year’s session is expected to introduce banking reform, House of Lords reform, and plans for increased internet monitoring. If I should disappear in the next few weeks after posting about Camilla, you’ll know who to blame.

No, darlings, Sharon Needles hasn’t become a redhead… that’s Agnes Moorehead as the adorable Endora on “Bewitched.” Sponsored by Kodak!

Using the same holographic technology that reanimated Tupac Shakur for the hippies at Coachella, a Gladys Knight hologram performed last night on “Dancing with the Stars” — and it was a pip!

Now there’s talk that the Tupac hologram will “go on tour.” I’d go see Fred Astaire if he toured.

Milton Berle and RuPaul… when legends collide. 1993.

And now, this commercial, courtesy of Milton Hershey.

Uncle Milton Ant Farm time lapse.

Milton “Shorty” Rogers was born on this day in 1924. Let’s get really groovy. Listen to this as you go on about your internet business.

(Shorty Rogers and his Giants. Lou Levy piano, Gary Peacock bass, Larry Bunker drums, Gary Lefebvre woodwinds, Shorty Rogers flugelhorn.)

A friend of mine is at the MIP-TV international programming market in Cannes, where she snapped a picture of this marketing fail.

In what promises not to be her last court appearance, Lindsay Lohan wore this 1970s polyester suit, which was available in a men’s version in the Montgomery Ward catalog in 1975 for only $27.88. Real Dacron!

One of them has a little man between the legs.

Happy 68th birthday to Patti LaBelle.

This was a hit… 46 years ago…

Thinking about a new car?

“Let’s build a giant pinball machine and have Eleanor Powell dance through it!”

Bad news… it’s an Audi.
