it was kim novak who was "discovered" by harry cohn in that scene of the film, on the stairs in that fashion show. she's one of the girls.
mm might have been visiting but considering how difficult it was for her to get onto a set (on time, at least), i doubt she would be interested in a casual cameo.

I always heard that Marilyn Monroe appeared in one of the lobby cards. Recently, I acquired 6 lobby cards from that film, one of which (card # 3) is a song-and-dance sequence with Russell and another brunette in the foreground---behind them are 4 men in tuxedos and cowboy hats and a dozen beautiful women, one of whom I'm certain is Marilyn Monroe. Why don't we hear more mention of "the Marilym Monroe 'French Line' lobby card"? I would think it would be quite collectable. Can anyone offer any insight into this? Hey, if that isn't Marilyn Monroe, I'll eat all six of the lobby cards for breakfast!
