A screenshot from a video documents South Dakota’s only Marilyn Monroe impersonator hamming it up behind a microphone wearing a white dress.

This screenshot features not just any ol’ dashing pirate, but it’s The Dashing Pirate, who smirks behind a microphone whilst wearing a gray waistcoat and toasting the audience.

In this screenshot, there’s an overly dramatic Marilyn Monroe impersonator, dressed in a white summer dress along with knee-high socks because it’s cold in South Dakota during the winter. She’s posed with arms over head in front of a screen which reads, “Cee Cee’s Cocktail Lounge - Est. 2022 - Open Mic Cabaret.”

Sometimes I feel I’ve got to… dress up like Marilyn Monroe and warble “Tainted Love” in order to make my friends laugh! You can witness the latest Klairilyn Monroe video on my YouTube channel. youtu.be/7Drf61k_-ws

And now for something completely different: we made a new Klairilyn Monroe music video! You’ll have to scoot over to YouTube to find my cover of “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” to enjoy my terrible Marilyn Monroe impression.
