Madonna and Marilyn Monroe Mashup - A Couple of Material Girls Whose Best Friends Are Diamonds

The video is footage is from Madonna's Material Girl official video but the audio is not. Instead of audio from Madonna's Material Girl, there is audio of Marilyn Monroe performing 'Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend'. So this is the definition of a 'mashup'. In addition, I have significantly edited the video footage, cutting out any segments of the video that do not match up with the Marilyn Monroe performance (ie, the clips of the official video of Madonna in her car, hanging out with friends, and receiving a gift from an admirer all cut out from this) and I have altered the coloring and speed of segments of the video and the ending and beginning. YouTube is allowing the inverse of this: video of Marilyn Monroe performing 'Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend' with audio of Madonna performing 'Material Girl' so why shouldn't you allow video of Madonna performing 'Material Girl' with audio of Marilyn Monroe performing 'Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend'? There is also an educational component to this is the two videos together were made by me to teach younger generations who are unfamiliar with Madonna's early works and/or Marilyn Monroe's work to see the similarity between the two performing artists.
