    Import Vinyl LP. Pharrell Williams dominated the charts in 2014 with the #1 hit "Happy" from this album "G.I.R.L." Also a part of the "Despicable Me 2" soundtrack, "Happy" spent countless weeks on the charts and was his third million-selling single in less than a year! ("Blurred Lines" and "Get Lucky" sung with Robin Thicke and Daft Punk, respectively, also sold well over a million copies.). "G.I.R.L." has decidedly edgier moments with several sexually explicit songs such as "Gush." Yet, it is all in good fun and very danceable. With an assist from Justin Timberlake on the hit "Brand New" and Alicia Keys on "Who Are You," "G.I.R.L." remains an exciting spin. The entire album peaked at #2 on the Billboard 200 chart and also had hits with the singles "Come Get It Bae" and "Marilyn Monroe." "G.I.R.L." also won a Grammy for Best Urban Contemporary Album, with Pharrell picking up another Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance on "Happy."Tracklist:Marilyn MonroeBrand NewHunterGushHappyCome Get…

Her parents are determined that Lydia will fulfill the dreams they were unable to pursue - in Marilyn's case that her daughter become a doctor rather than a homemaker, in James's case that Lydia be popular at school, a girl with a busy social life and the centre of every party. But Lydia is under pressures that have nothing to do with growing up in 1970s small town Ohio. Her father is an American born of first-generation Chinese immigrants, and his ethnicity, and hers, make them conspicuous in any setting. When Lydia's body is found in the local lake, James is consumed by guilt and sets out on a reckless path that may destroy his marriage.

    SOON TO BE A NETFLIX FILM

    A mesmerising novel of the most enduring cultural icon of the 20th century, Blonde is a deeply moving portrait of the woman who became Marilyn Monroe.

    Who was Norma Jeane Baker?

    In Blonde we are given an intimate, unsparing vision of the woman who became Marilyn Monroe: the child who visits the cinema with her mother; the orphan whose mother is declared mad; the woman who changes her name to become an actress; the fated celebrity, lover, comedienne, muse and icon.

    Joyce Carol Oates tells an epic American story of how a fragile, gifted young woman makes and remakes her identity, surviving against crushing odds, perpetually in conflict and intensely driven. Here is the very essence of the individual, hungry and needy for love: from an elusive mother, from a mysterious, distant father and from a succession of lovers and husbands.

    Blonde is a brilliant and deeply moving portrait of a culture hypnotised by its own myths and the shattering reality of the personal effects it had on the woman who became Marilyn Monroe.
