Marilyn Monroe will be remembered in wax at the Madame Tussuad's museum in Washington.

The museum is unveiling its newest wax figure today. It will be displayed initially at Washington's O Street Museum in The Mansion on O Street.

An exhibit about the late Hollywood star will also include a pin-up calendar and photographs, as well as a shampoo advertisement and lunch box featuring Monroe.

Monroe died 51 years ago but remains a pop culture phenomenon. She was well known for films like 'Some Like it Hot', 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' and 'How to Marry a Millionaire'. But for younger generations, Monroe remains an icon of style.
