Britney Spears regularly visits Marilyn Monroe's grave, say reports.

According to the Daily Star, Spears is obsessed with the 1950s movie star.

"Britney is fascinated with Marilyn and visits her grave often," said a source. "Since she's been getting her life together, she's been reading about the star and has recently been glued to a book about her.

"She's fascinated that Marilyn asked her favourite make-up artist to make her look beautiful after she died and picked her own burial plot."

It is also reported that Spears requested a spot at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery after visiting the graveyard last week.

A source commented: "When Britney saw Rudolph Valentino’s grave at the cemetery, she shrieked and said she wanted one.

"She told her aides: 'I'm going to live forever so I want to be brought to the Forever Cemetery when I'm 101.'"
