Fraudulent items "disappear" after being exposed in Blogcritics article.
"Marilyn Monroe-the exhibit" on the Queen Mary opened its doors to the public on November 11, but it had already been denounced as a fraud the night before at a press preview.…

Happy Father's day to all dads. Hello Claire and Blair. Are we going to see you soon in some blockbuster or some soap opera? Good to hear that you did not get lost in this city of angels and dreams that can easily eat its children alive.
677 - Mark Bellinghaus
maybe you can share with us what that lady had to tell you about marilyn. Did you get some details about what year it was and what the occassion was in particular?
678 - Mark Bellinghaus
to #659: there are many places still as they were when Marilyn lived there. If you email me through my URL I can email you a list of places and that will take days to visit even half of them. But it should be fun and very interesting. Some streets are really close by--which let's you think that she liked one area in particula of Los Angeles: West Hollywood. And she lived twice on one street in Beverly Hills, 90210--the street is called Palm Drive.

I think it is an advantage to try it as twins. Anything that makes you a bit different from the others might help. But the Olsen twins--that is a hard to beat--they are billionairs already.
680 - Mark Bellinghaus
To#662: We could arange to meet at the museum and I could give you a private tour. Everything is detailed but you might want to know the backgound story of this or that item on display. The most amazing thing to me is how MM's clothing is fitting onto the modern mannequins. They show her waist correctly and not so different like the Queen Mary displays who had some tent-like dresses that made MM apear to be obese or huge.
The Puccis are so vivid in color--unbelievable.
681 - Mark Bellinghaus
to#663: what an honor that is and that makes me really proud. Thank you. but there is also "Mark" Roesler--the name seems to be trendy...hahaha
682 - Mark Bellinghaus
To664: i can email you direction to that fan club as well. it is actually pretty easy to find the place where the meetings are held.
683 - Mark Bellinghaus
to #665: now this really makes me HAPPY! I received thousands (literally) emails from people who were going to attend but then found out the warnings via the internet and this blogcritics blog--the former one in particular.
I am still amazed that it was possible to do it this way and that we were heard--dispite the newspaper did not pick it up, as they seemed scared of the famous and powerful Roesler persona. I was never--I will never ever be scared of that man. In my eyes and deep believe he is a charlatan just like Otto and he will try to distant himself more from the famous wig--owner Rober W. Otto. That is simply not possible. The CMG started this fraud in their own office--I mean how could they possibly display shit without checking first if it is REAL?!
Mark Roesler's days as Mister bigshut are counted.
684 - Mark Bellinghaus
To# 666: Bon Appetito!
685 - Mark Bellinghaus
I am getting hungry, too. Soccer really keeps you on the couch, and makes you lazy. It should have the oposite effect. Just like during the Olympics. I gained pounds just by eating and watching.
FRIENDS THROUGH MARILYN AND FAST FOOD!
686 - Mark Bellinghaus
To667: A supportive father is wonderful and most important. I wish I could call my father today, but he passed away three years ago. Honor your dads as long as it is possible.
687 - Mark Bellinghaus
To#668 that might just what will happen--but right now this blog isn't dead and there is not many news. Let's see if they have the nerves to move somewhere else and screw more people--but in my opinion they are DONE! For good and forever.
In each and every way. L-O-L!
688 - Mark Bellinghaus
If anybody has doubts about it: This is the REAL POWER OF BLOG! Right there. A $60 to $90 million scam idea has come to a halt! Still stand because the evidence is all too obvious. A Happy Birthday Mr. President back up dress is just too much for anybody to believe.
I THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR STRONG SUPPORT--EVEN THE ROESLER TEAM, HHH AND ALL THE OTHERS WHO ATTACKED ME AND TRIED TO MAKE ME LOOK STUPID AND DISCREDIT ME. THE OPPOSITE HAPPENED AND THIS SHOULD SHOW YOU THAT MM WAS ABLE TO DEFEND HERSELF!
689 - Mark Bellinghaus
Happy Summer to all of you, stay cool and always keep your eyes open! Fraud is everywhere--not only items of Marilyn Monroe are being faked.

will there be a "new" exhibit from otto at another place or is it really all over now?
i wondered if they will display the stuff somewhere else or that nobody wants it anymore?
691 - Mark Bellinghaus
Dear johAn, if we knew the answer to that, we would pass on the info. But so far we can only guess that nobody--not even some crazy lunatics would display the crap they presented to the paying public for almost seven month and that just in Long Beach.
How wonderful to have a powerful lawyer, being the back up for this FRAUD--actually committing fraud!
It will take time--but these people will get what they deserve.
So if you ask me, I don't think that anybody will have the "pleasure" of looking at MM's fake underwear.
Congratiolation on the Dutch soccer team. The stadium seemed almost "oranje" and they certainly had several chances to goal. I can tell that you are not much into soccer, but it is really exciting to me to watch the games.
I have no clue about the rules of baseball for exapmle--but soccer is fun.
If I find any news regarding your question, I will let you know of course.
One of the biggest European TV stations is coming to LA in August and they are working on a documentary. So people are interested and they are looking for info on it.
FRIENDS THROUGH MARILYN!
692 - Mark Bellinghaus
Oh--I forgot, you are not the only person who wanted to know. I received so many emails from interested fans and people who just wanted to know. Many people also wanted to join the class action lawsuit against Roesler, Otto and the Queen Mary. But I could not give any info on that one.
Even if Otto & Roesler travel to Oshkosh and show that fake underwear and all the other bogus stuff there, he will be caught--cause the news have spread way too far and all over the world.
Maybe they should go into the jungle and charge the moskitos--but I bet that some drums will bring the news to us. Wonder how many beats it takes to translate Robert W. Otto boom boom, boom.

693 - Mark Bellinghaus
Somebody just emailed me the news that when Otto left the Queen Mary for the last time, a strong wind took what amuzed all of us from the very first moment we saw him--his wig!
It took off and flew off and into the ocean, where the ship is docked.
Somebody actually filmed the departure, and this time--strangely enough, there were no security personal. What for anyhow.
694 - Mark Bellinghaus
For all the fans of GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES and Jane Russell, this wonderful actress turned 85 years of age just today. She is so funny in her scene at the court, when she is wearing a blonde wig and is doing the Marilyn-part.
695 - Usona Chastain
Hey, Mark -- are you still there? or are you with the soccer game? I got questions!
696 - Mark Bellinghaus
Hi Usona: I am you genie in the bottle...lol what's up?!
697 - Mark Bellinghaus
Shoot! The soccer is over in the morning, as Germany is 9 hours ahead of our time.
698 - Usona Chastain
All right, I'll start! The person in #485 quotes that Along Beach newspaper as saying that if the ship is displaying fake items, that the Queen Mary management should give a refund to unhappy visitors. Right? But it's not really a question of "Should" give a refund, is it? They MUST give a refund, right? Isn't that the point of the class action lawsuit?
699 - Mark Bellinghaus
Correct! They will have to give the refund to anybody who can prove that they went to see the show and paid for it!
700 - Mark Bellinghaus
Let's just say some father took his wife and three children to show them the fabulous doll salon and paid a little fortune to do so--in case they do not have the original admission tickets--and a lot of people threw them away anyhow, they can show creditcard statements in order to prove that they paid money to see that junk on display.
That is why the class action was filed.
701 - Usona Chastain
Also: several bloggers have asked about where the fake show may go next. Do you think they would be crazy enough to go ANYWHERE? Could they take a chance to going to a country where people might now have heard about them.
But thatg would mean finding a country that has never heard of our sweet Marilyn Monroe -- can anybody think of such a country?
702 - Usona Chastain
VERY IMPORTANT POINT!! I mean the one about using your credit card statement to prove you paid money to get into the show. I wouldn't have thought of that.
PS: and you're being nasty when you refer to the "fabulous doll salon" - right? I'm 37 years old, I wouldn't spend a nickel on a doll, Marilyn MOnroe or not. I stopped playing with dolls when I graduated from college.
703 - Mark Bellinghaus
Maybe on another planet, indeed. but on this one that seems impossible.
And: as I mentioned before. Let them travel wherever they want, if they are asking for another lawsuit, fine! That is their problem indeed.
I am just glad that they listened to our former "witness" that woman who sold all those fakes, and some even to Otto himself, as when she suggested in my first blog that Otto just should be given the chance to "refresh" the display and pull out some obvious and fake ones. They did just that and that made the whole scandal and scam OBVIOUS! So: Thanks to HHH, who even wrote this anti-Mark-blog and compared me to Hitler at some point. She was really one of the thriving powers to sink that ship full of rats and rat shit! LOL
704 - Mark Bellinghaus
Some people really love those dolls and I understand that. What I do not understand is that people would charge to show those dolls to the public and charge a horrandous amount for just that!
705 - Mark Bellinghaus
Did you know that Jane Russell turned 85 today?
I met her 10 years ago and she was absolutely fit and fun. MM would be somehow like that, if she were alive. Jane Russell was fond of Marilyn and vise versa.
706 - Usona Chastain
Mark, I just saw your refrence to Jane Russell -- she's just such a wonderful person! I've never heard her say a single negative thing about Mariyn. Have you? From what I hear Jane Russell tried to help her. Did you ever read about how Jane invited Marilyn to the Bible-reading sessions she had in her home? As I remember, Marilyn went only once, but Jane Russell never nagged her, never told her she was going to hell.Unlike some people who have TV shows and demand that people send in money to buy their way into heaven--and these are the same people who collect race horses and jet planes!
707 - Mark Bellinghaus
You are correct on that one of course. No, I never heard Ms. Russell say a bad word at all.
She is so wonderful and down to earth in private. She has still this beauty that some people keep until they leave us forever.
Talking about leaving, I am sorry I have two lazy dogs which sleep all day and unless I walk them, they will not exercise, so I need to go right now, but I am looking forward chatting with you soon again. Now, since it is the beginning of summer, the days are getting shorter again, can you believe that?
The years are running like water under the bridge.
We all are going to die some day--but only a few will meet Marilyn. The other ones will meet Robert Slatzer, June DiMaggio and Jeanie Carmen, Tony Curtis, Adolf Hitler etc. At the Hell Inn, where the stay is an eternal nightmare with phony interviews and fake MM items. Yuck!
Bye and FRIENDS THROUGH MARILYN!
708 - Usona Chastain
Clare refers to "Mister Cunningham".
I understand that he prefers "ERnest" or "Ernie" or "Ernesto" or "Hey you!"
709 - Mark Bellinghaus
As the sun is fading out and the night is near; that is news to me, but I certainly will ask him if those are his nicknames. I like Ernest, as of Hemmingway. lol
Or as of Honest, of course.
Talk to you soon again, Bye.
710 - Usona Chastain
One final comment: "The days run away like wild horses over the hill" -- who said that? Bukowski?
Maybe, I'm not sure. You could look it up.
711 - Mark Bellinghaus
Checking in--sorry but I had to go; don't know for sure, as I love Bukowski but am not sure if that is one of his poems.
On another note: Too bad that the team USA is out already! They played so strong and well against Italy. Well, hopefully in four years it will go better and the support will be stronger, too.
FRIENDS THROUGH MARILYN AND SOCCER!
(On Sunday May 12, 1957, Israel Hapoel played an American all star soccer team and Marilyn Monroe kicked out the first ball for them.)
712 - Mark Bellinghaus
AHA!
The well known Roesler website finally pulled the very telling interviews from its website. Too late! They are saved and will be the most amazing and entertaining evidence. Mark Roesler who does not seem to have a single clue how much this or that thrift stor item is worth, asking Otto over and over that this or that is and how much it is worth, but then was quoted in the Los Angeles Times "appraising" the most ridiculous MM collection EVER at a whopping $8.75 MILLION!
A lawyer--as powerful as him, committing FRAUD, that is the stuff successful news are made of.
Here is a link --please check it our for yourself--the June DiMaggio, Robert W. Otto and Mark Roesler and Mary Jane Popp is still there - and you gotta check it out, before that is pulled--as well!
713 - Mark Bellinghaus
Do you guys remember this one?
I wonder what happened--did some shocking lawsuit jeopadize that AWARD? Would be interesting if the FAMOUS CMG and their even more famous leader who believes in "territory" actually received one of those....has anybody some info on that one? The awards were haded out yesterday, and if Roelser got one, that would mean that crime is being awarded.
714 - Mark Bellinghaus
...and REWARDED!
715 - Mark Bellinghaus
Here is some info from the latest Christie's auction in NYC from this morning:
A 1942 letter from Norma Jeane to her half sister Bernice Miracle sold for $20,000 (hammer price and without the buyers premium)
A script for "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" sold for only $8,000 (hammer price)
The famous white ermine coat (prominent from pictures by Milton Green) sold for $42,000 (hammer price)
The black Misfits dress (two pieces) sold for $55,000 (hammer price)
Another address book from the legend sold for $26,000!
Who says that nobody cares for Marilyn Monroe anymore?!

Just out of curiosity at the seemingly endless stream of commentary on this subject, I looked at the cumulative comments for this particular thread.....
Mark, you have supplied 401 out of 717 comments on this particular thread. Just for brevity's sake, I would recommend that you might consider posting a new relevant article on the subject rather then continuously updating in the comments, it would make the content of the original posting more readable and timely, given that it was posted back in April and you seem to be adding new info to it on a daily basis.
This is just a suggestion, mind, I'm not a blogcritics editor, just an occasional contributor and reader, so do what you want.
Be advised that having 401 comments, from yourself seems a trifle...narcisstic. It makes it appear that you are mostly talking to yourself.... or artificially keeping this article on the front page of Blogcritics Comments section by obsessively posting to it.
717 - Mark Bellinghaus
Thank you for your "well meant" comment [Edited]. I can give you a direct answer if you email me through my URL--but posting without a working URL or none at all--I am sorry, that is just too obvious.
In Germany there is a saying: "As you shout into the woods--it will echo to you."

Hey "Deano"! I just clicked on your URL, what happened, it just disappeared, is that what you understand as fair and correct and non-narcisstic? [Edited]
719 - Mark Bellinghaus
[Edited]
Could it be that some jealous input made you post those ugly comments?
I have brought down a $60 to $80 MILLION FRAUD--just with a blog story. Can you repeat that, dude?
Prove it.
[Edited]
And if this is Mr. Otto in a last desperate try to spill poison; man--remeber how they celebrated you on November 11th on the Queen Mary? Those were the moments to remember. But there is enough evidence now that you all might just go where you all belong to: J-A-I-L!

Here is some important evidence that the woman who attacked me on my first blog and tried to take my credibility actually sold to Robert W. Otto! Now we know that she had a hidden agenda all along. She tried to protect her own fakes she passed on to Mr. Otto. He also bought many items from well known forgers who were kicked off eBay after a short life as sellers--as for example the seller named: "Hollywoodstudio"
Here is the feedback from the seller (HHH).
Great/Friendly Transaction! This member is an asset to ebay! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This is the About me page from that seller (Frank Warren), who I met at the 1999 auction in NYC and who proudly told me that Mark Roesler was dating his sister. I did not know about his ability and talent to make MM look alike dresses--which some of them he obviously sold to Robert W. Otto! It is an easy to follow trial that was left during Otto's craze for MM memorabilia. He also purchased that famous "Happy Birthday -back up dress" from Warren.
The proof for that particular transaction is in existence, too.
Just read this and get your own impression of the kicked off eBay seller who worked closely together with Otto in providing the exhibit "highlights".
That is why no serious and known collector knew about and of Otto!

Here are two feedbacks from Frank Warren for Robert Otto who literally give away the scam!
Have you ever heard of a Marilyn Monroe tag sale?!
There are more of course--we can not wait to see the authenticity that Otto is showing with his items. Our experts wonder which tests they really might stand up to.
