      Chris you are sooooo right 👍🏾
      I always said that if you brought her into this era, she will still steal the show by far. These days, those who we refer to as celebrities will have nothing on her overall beauty, poise/the way she carries herself, her mannerisms and inimitable Magic 🪄. She’s untouched, unmatched and there will be nine like her till the end of time. 🙏🏾❤️💫💎👑

    She just was so photogenic, the way her mouth sits & her teeny tiny waist !!!! Women this era no longer have that tiny waist - it’s what really accentuates her sex appeal & all her dresses were cut to show that tiny waist & female curves. She was rare beauty

      Hi Katina, you are very right 👍🏾 and it seems like she still will not be Marilyn Monroe if with all her physical shape and contours she didn’t have the added poise, the way she carried herself, her mannerisms and overall Magic. Those were the attributes that made her an astonishingly ‘Stand-Out’ beautiful woman. You see there were other shapely women in her era and also now but they don’t possess the mannerisms, the cuteness and the ‘Monroe Brand of Magic’. So she’s unique and unmatched 💫🪄🌪️🔥💎👑

    My parents were fans so I remember the shock when she died. I think that she was universally loved, men, women, young and old. I was nearly 13 when she died and though I don't remember where I was when I heard the news it was a tragic event in my house.

      We must be the same age as I was 12 and a half when she died. The effect it had on me was similar to the assassination of JFK the following year. I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing. My parents were watching the TV news when her death was announced.

      She had a splendorus personality. So unique. So perfect. Her face, her body, her legs, she was beautiful all over. And she had a sweet voice, an lnnocent ,yet sexy smile, very charming and classy, never vulgar. MM had a talent which was not recognized as she deserved. She could have interpret other roles.But producers were fixed on her sex appeal and did not allow her to do so. Even with that limitation, she became a fulgurant movie star. Her star still shines and will continue flashing for years to come. MM is an eternal icon , a legend, a myth. Her fans are transgenerational. And when we remember her passing, her suffering since childhood, a very long, deep sorrow makes our heart ache.. She evoques feelings of admiration and compasion . Baby, may you rest in peace in heaven. You will always be remembered.
