Who ever thought of Marilyn as an ice queen?


Quirky news from the ice sculpture world: an ecstatic, if frosty, Marilyn Monroe has beaten a slew of other Hollywood greats to bag the first prize at Europe's top ice-sculpture competition.

The 14th annual ice sculpture competition at Ischgl, Austria had international sculptors submitting entries to the theme of 'Ischgl meets Hollywood'.

Marilyn won for Italians Ivo Piazza and Rainer Kasslatte, beating out Jaws, King Kong, Cindy Crawford, E.T., Moby Dick, Dances with Wolves and Titanic.
