Marilyn Monroe: Abnormally Large Crowd To Her Grave Site !

Celebrity grave sites are often marked with flowers and photos to mark a birthday or death anniversary but the memorial park that is home to Marilyn Monroe claims they were completely overrun yesterday by fans of Marilyn.

A spokesman for the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery stated there was an "abnormally large" crowd on Friday - her 86th birthday - with people leaving items such as cards, photos, candles, statues, and flowers.

The spokesman revealed they usually try and leave the items on the grave site for as long as possible (until they start to overrun neighboring spaces) but the clean-up yesterday for Marilyn went down faster than usual.

It has to be noted that the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery is also the final resting place of Janis Joplin, Peter Falk, Rodney Dangerfield, Natalie Wood, Farrah Fawcett and many more.

It has to be mentioned that August 5 marks the 50th anniversary of her death.
