According to an article in the Telegraph , a Marilyn Monroe secret sex tape sold for $1.5m.
The 15 minute, 16mm film was purchased by a New York businessman who plans to "keep it locked up".
The footage is said to have been shot in the 1950s and shows the sex symbol "engaged in oral sex with an unidentified man".
An informant alerted the FBI of the film's existence. But before the original was confiscated by an FBI agent, the informant had made a copy.
Secrets have a way of getting out, even after having been hidden away for years. It's difficult in particular for celebrities who struggle to keep parts of their lives private.
Living life under the microscope perhaps causes one to seek out hidden worlds, even when it is risky. Keeping secrets might almost seem a necessity for those in the public life. There are many reasons why a celebrity might choose to keep secrets.
Having a secret life can be a way to help those in the limelight cope with having to exist under constant scrutiny. There are also other reasons why celebrities might choose to have secret lives. A recent blog article discussed how some celebrities choose to keep an illness a secret in order to preserve the integrity of their image.
But even for people not working in public roles, secrets serve many functions. They are often used as coping methods. Unfortunately, it is well-documented that secrets can cause physiological damage to our bodies, such as decreasing our immune system.
Sometimes even revealing small truths can help us free ourselves. When revealing something particularly difficult, it is helpful to seek out a supportive environment.
Learning to come to terms with our true selves and our natural state of being brings light. Where there is light, there is truth.
