MARILYN MONROE - SANDLER AIDS CAREY'S MONROE COLLECTION

MARILYN MONROE-obsessed MARIAH CAREY recently received a special gift from funnyman ADAM SANDLER - a replica of the movie icon's 'leaning board'. Sandler heard the pop superstar, who owns Monroe's piano, was looking for a film prop similar to the one her heroine used for costume changes on movie sets - and realised he had one. The comedian gave Carey the board as a thank-you to her for appearing in his new film You Don't Mess With The Zohan. Carey says, "When actresses of the day had to be sewn into costumes they had to use a leaning board. "Adam had one from an old movie and I really liked it, so he had another one made in pink and sent to me."
