- Rare footage with sound ..Feb 1954 Marilyn Singing Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend, Bye Bye Baby and Do It Again. Marilyn said it was the highlight of her life to sing for the soldiers in Korea. I have complied the footage into one video
She had said years after "The highlight of my life was singing for the soldiers there. I stood out on an open stage and it was cold, but I swear I didn't feel a thing except good." Truly a great lady.
I am reading Mark Shaw's book now, and it's wonderfully written, with full explanations about Marilyn, JFK, RK and THE remarkable Dorothy Kilgallen!

That is my grandfather on the piano, Arthur Weinstein. Played piano as a young man and continued to share his passion for music until the day he passed away in 2010. He returned home from Korea in 1957. In January of 1958, his wife, Dorothy, gave birth to my father, Russell Weinstein. An amazing guitarist and a human encyclopedia of all things music, had an extremely dysfunctional relationship with his father which has always made him feel disconnected from his own dad. I hope finding this footage for my dad can show him that him and his father have much more in common than he thinks. Music has honesty saved my dad's life. I also enjoy this video because I am a lover of all things vintage and historic, and boy is this woman a groundbreaker :-) She has inspired me since I was a child. This footage means a lot to me in so many ways.
Thanks for reading.
it's time to stop. k? Yes, he did speak with her a couple of times. He said that him and all of his army buddies would just drool over Marilyn! They were all so excited to have a beautiful woman there to entertain them and give them a refreshing piece of home in America. She spent a lot of time getting to know the soldiers. She was human just like us. It's hard for people to understand that. She was and still is an idol, but she was not much different than us. :-)
What a wonderful story, thank you for sharing!!!
Newlet Msp lol why the I lie about that? Goodbye
Love that story
Beautiful story!
My father was a Thai soldier in the audience at this memorable event in Korea. He took a photo of her on stage and was sitting on the right. Great memory - he’s 90 now.
That’s amazing 🥲
I’d love to see that pic omg
Bella y muy graciosa, nunca cayó en la vulgaridad. Un icono del cine. Jamás será olvidada.
his 90, soooo cute🥰💖💞
Why don’t you post this photo somewhere for all to see it? It’s amazing! It would also be worth of money a lot if you decided to sell it at an auction
I work in a retirement home for Screen Actors Guild members. Some of the residents who are now in their 90's knew Marilyn. They all said she was the sweetest, most down to Earth person. One of them was a play write and a former screenwriter, who was a good friend and neighbors with Marilyn back in NYC in the 50's. He showed me a photo of her at his apartment, where she had come over to a pot luck he was having. She was sitting at a small table with a small group of people having what appeared to be the biggest belly laugh. He said she was an excellent baker and was so well read. You could talk to her about anything.
I believe it.
Thank you for sharing this intimate episode, as what's mundane but true in life is genuinely precious.. (so rare in showbusiness where all is projected as fantastic)

@@valentina-gracemaclean9736 she didn’t lol but ok
Thank you for sharing. Seems to me it's the sensitive souls that give so much.
She knew she could have just stood there and been admired. She sang her heart out. What a trooper.
blackattackcat pun intended?
Not only she sang her heart out. As I understand from a documentary, the weather was cold. With the dress she wore, it must be chilly for her. Someone had suggested she wore thick clothing, but she said the servicemen would love to see her dressed the way she always did. She went the mile to perform for the troop.
I love Her!!!!!!!
Proto-Porn ..to support the War effort .
And WHO started both do you suppose ?
Porn & War-mongers..the worst of America ..or of what's infesting America.✌️
On the side view angle you can see the guys in the front row with overcoats on and their arms folded! It was definitely cold.
I know she kept a photo of herself in Korea she said it was her happiest experience, probably bc nobody was there bossing her around she was free to entertain as she pleased& also she really felt loved by all the solgiers
Actually a friend confessed because she found out she was pregnant at the time but later miscarried, we will never know for sure
marcelaruby84 as i said she stated publicly how good it felt to entertain troops... in fact,she had many photos but ONE particular photo she carried with her everywhere with the caption saying" this is my favorite one"a snapshot of her in Korea!! No need to thank me😉
marcelaruby84 a " freind?" You mean HERESAY LOL
southsyde Sasha you're probably right
southsyde Sasha She was a sweetheart for doing that for the troops!
Sad how the Netflix show Blonde seems to focus on so many negatives and ignores the incredible highlights like this
Yes , It's like the movie Blonde was made by a group of people who hate Monroe. The most disrespectful movie for a biggest star
i absolutely hate that show. im never watching it. ive only seen clips and decided its probably the most disrespectful thing ive seen.
That stuff doesn't sell, but the drama, drugs and death does.
Remember, Blonde is a work of fiction. Marilyn is a bookmark in history. Neither the book or the movie has much to do about history.
@@hanthartharchan956 Concordo plenamente, parece que o filme foi armado por gente satânica, as mesmas que mataram Marylin , sim continuam a desmoraliza- lá mesmo depois de morta. Porque não focam na grande mulher que ela foi, lutadora , encantadora , talentosa e gentil , amorosa .
Most people assume that Marilyn was strictly a Hollywood confection -- talented, for sure, but still an edited product. But here she is live on a bare stage, and she's great. She's beautiful, sings great, and had a ton of confidence and charisma.
And she was a beauty from head to toe. Say that too.
Y era un bellezón desde la cabeza a los pies. Di eso también.
Fun fact: She was freezing considering it’s was very cold outside. But she persisted that she’d perform for the soldiers to make them happy. She was also on a solo trip during this moment from Japan with her honeymoon with Joe DiMaggio as he was doing business in Japan.
Such a sweet woman with a good heart.
You're spot on, Angela! Love to see other Marilyn lovers especially the ones who have done the research 💜 I believe she also really sick after this performance as well.
What a woman, her talents are so right.
She gave joy to the
Soldiers and each of us viewing all
Her ❤ ❤ films, videos too.
We still love you
Marilyn Monroe/Norma Jeane Baker, you did more than twinkle,
You were Wonderful 👏 ❤ 💕 💗.
We do and did really love you, always.
It is true that February temperatures is very cold like Southern part of Canada. I was grade 2 student of elementary school in Korea just after Korean War ended. At that time our country was among one of poorest country in the world but now South Korea become 20th wealthy country in term of GDP.
We Korean are thankful for the support from Western country, particularly from USA and other
Western allies, like UK and Canada.
Correction : Korea is now 10th wealthy country in terms of GDP.
YEAH...LOOK @ THE SOLDIERS...BUNDLED WITH EVERYTHING ISSUED!!!!!
It was freezing and she refused to cover up properly . Stating : "This is how they expect to see".

No auto tune here. Just voice with a beautiful vibrato. Her hands are always expressively delicate.
they managed to record her voice well enough..no muffled noises
Love hearing what a strong singing voice she really had, not just that "little girl whisper" we'd seen/heard in movies. She's pretty much belting it out!
I listen to tape recoding of her and she wasn't soft talking like a whisper..She sounded good ..It must have been her acting voice at times ..
@@michellenolan8626 Yes. She didn't really talk that way.
She’s a great singer! Totally underrated
my grandad was in Korea as a Turkish soldier. he always told me about how an excellent woman she was. that she even tried to talk with every soldier even tho they couldnt understand her. she was a kind, beautiful soul.
That's wonderful!! So, he got to meet her?
Vintage Rose he did!
@@umay1571 Oh wow!!!! That is sooo amazing...to have been able to meet such an icon!!! I bet that was one of the most exciting moments of his life!!! Did he tell you any details?
Wow that's craaazy. Your granddad is lucky! Not a lot of people get to meet such a big legend. In fact she's probably the biggest celebrity to ever walk on this earth because she's still talked about over almost 60 years later after her death. What a sweet soul she was.
My father served with the 25th Infantry Division from the time of the Japanese occupation until well after the Korean armistice. To this very day he speaks about the fearlessness and ferocity that the Turkish forces he knew exhibited. He says they were some of the finest soldiers he ever had the privileged fighting beside.
Watching this can't see why people consider her as plus size, she ain't skinny or bones but plus size???
Just slender with curves
Natalie Lina people say she was plus sized because of the way the sizes were back then. she was very slim and in good physical shape. the pictures they use to prove she was plus size was from when she was pregnant
she wasn’t a 10-12, she was a lot smaller than that, sizing just changed from then to mow
T R she was not,you can obviously tell she ain’t that big from looking at this. People believe that because the sizing was different at those times and people think those are the same as today. She was about a size 4
classicarah I'm pretty sure there's a misunderstanding of what I said, but I was referring to her actual clothing thats in collections
She actually was a size zero in today measurements from what a modeling organization she worked with had on her. The times she looked more thick was when she was pregnant which was a few times but she could never carry a baby full term unfortunately:(
She truly is one of the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. I understand now why people still try to imitate her, even years later!
Very very beautiful♥️
Sleeping your way to the top, via Harvey Weinstein ugly old married studio executives in their 70's, in order to get fame and doing that willingly, is not beautiful. Get your head out of the sand about Marilyn, it's all well documented with info available everywhere.
She was once a He
@@TruG670 nobody’s perfect
She was a he f ...of , we do try im blonde but Marilyn thers only one, my Mans godess imposible to copy

💐💐💐💐💐
0:58 can we talk about how the backup singer is looking at her? He’s ready to risk it all for her lmao
lmafo
True that😁
LMFAO
Who can blame him what a guy
I think he was waiting for the cue to come closer 😂
she was so beautiful
Poet Victoria Hunter yes she has all those features but she’s still beautiful
Poet Victoria Hunter no no. She was considered plus sized back then. Sure she smoked and drank, like any other person then. Plus yes she got a bit of work on her face (her nose, but not implants, if u compare, and from what surgeons have said), but her body is natural and curvy, the only thing slim about her is her waist, and that’s just how she was built. It’s natural. Yes she did bleach her hair but with dark or blonde hair both she looked beautiful and iconic. Her IQ was definitely another very beautiful thing about her and for me, her intelligence and personality and sweetness, plus that smile and those eyes, will definitely too my list of things I find beautiful about her. Her body comes after that too though.
Poet Victoria Hunter she is most definitely not my role model but she is still someone I admire and respect because she truly has had a hard life but she still thrived (except her sad later years). everyone and their mother knows she was hooked on drugs before she killed herself - she was depressed.
I don’t want to look like her, I’m not white either. Her body is nice for sure though, but I want to be myself.
Beyoncé? Ur seriously telling me, a huuuuge fan of Beyoncé (and MJ), that she wouldn’t be respected after death? Honey, she’s respected NOW while she’s alive, why wouldn’t she in death? Also she may have gotten a nose surgery, and who knows what else but it does not take away from her beauty at all, such small things, same w Marilyn. Whitney Houston is also still respected after her death, and same w/ MJ. You could have used a better example because there is definitely a difference between how white and colored people are treated but that doesn’t mean we have to hate white icons. She got work done, but so have so many celebrities NOW, ones people idolize 🙄 all in all, im just saying there’s nothing to hate her about: her beauty, her sweetness, her IQ or her mind. P.S. I love her for her mind too.
I wasn’t meaning to come for you, I was meaning to object to the Marilyn slander, but yeah.
Poet Victoria Hunter (heh that’s all you replied to, aight).
I’m not even white lmao nor do I like most white people bc I do have a not so good view of them.
Ur life was hard but that doesn’t make any other person’s life less hard. She didn’t know her parents, from what I heard, she had a bad foster mother, she was sad for a lot of her life and was constantly emotionally abused by the men in her life when she just wanted to be loved.
She was rich and famous yes but she got there herself using her charms, body, grace, singing and dancing. And she was never really happy.
can’t hate someone just cuz they got rich with their own merit.
She made bad choices but so did any other person. No one is perfect. Anyway, that’s all I have to say. I’ll end it here bye. :)
Poet Victoria Hunter oh shut up
She was so beautiful that people forget how talented she really was, a good singer and great actress, she was the full package.

Marilyn and Princess Diana illuminated the entire world with a their genuine beauty and love for others. Something nobody has ever been able to do. They are truly Historical Icons of their time. ❤️💋💜
My husband formed the all-soldier band "Anything Goes" to entertain the troops as the war was winding down in Korea. Marilyn joined that band to tour with them. He is playing the drums to relieve one of the back-up singers. What stories he has to share of those fascinating 4 days!
He should share those stories, I'd loved to hear/read them.
Camille Yahm That's awesome!!
how I'd love to hear those stories
Camille Yahm AMAZING! You should coordinate an on-camera session where he tells those stories and upload it to UA-cam! I bet a lot of people would be interested in hearing of his adventures!
Please do so, miss!
wow she's so legendary, almost mythical, of course I've seen her face everywhere it's rare to actual see footage of her . so unique, as beautiful as they claimed she was. it's not just her looks, it's her poise too
'it's rare to actual see footage of her'
She was a movie star...
And she could sing and was a good comedian. Plus sexy!
@@andrewtucker94 Lmao
Watch one of her films
not only that despite what people said about her and her troubles she was very sweet and treated everyone fairly i don't know why she used to get so much hate
She's got real stage presence. An unexplored facet of her many talents.
A bit of history of this day that she performed for the soldiers. She was actually very ill, with pneumonia and those close to her were worried and felt she should call it off. She persisted that she needed to go on with the show, as it was for the morale of the soldiers. She did not want to let them down. It was also freezing cold and she performed in a sleeveless dress. She was definitely a sweet and kind human being. She looked stunning, regardless of her obstacles that day too !
Isn't the internet the best bloody invention ever! Being able to visit history in a few clicks of a button! Wonderful. I love the 50s but kinda glad I'm around to enjoy our technology lol
And also that everyone can vote and we don’t have to worry about catching Polio lol
after the internet, artificial intelligence will be the greatest invention ever, if humans plan to make such a thing, that is.
I think we would probably feel more alive if we lived in the right conditions in the past
@@AmethystEyes fraud in the voting system & now we have to worry about catching Covid
Take it with the pleasure, take it with the pain.
How the HELL was she considered plus sized?? She looks like a healthy woman with beautiful curves!
she was never considered plus size. when it was revealed her dress size was a 12 people assumed it was a modern 12 but back then it was about a size 4. she was extremely tiny with a 22 inch waist
@@Vexarax I've noticed that too. Beauty standards always come and go in cycles and the curvaceous body type is back in style now, but with more of a focus on ass 😁😁😁 I wonder what will be the next trend for the 2020s.
Like She was the first white woman with hips LOL
Because nowadays plus size means morbidly obese.
Real men like women with some curves, not looking like someone just liberated by the Allies.
Still feel like hollywood is still trying to find their 'new' Marilyn and they still can't replace her. Legendary. Also, it's crazy to think my grandpa, God rest his soul, was a Korean War vet and that he's sitting in the audience in this video somewhere. Miss you, PGL.
She had never done this before; but she was so confident, she owned the stage! She could easily have played Broadway or Vegas if her emotional stability had not been so fragile. She was a born trouper and a born star.
Marilyn had a lot of problems but you can tell deep down she was a kind and decent person.
She wanted to be a star. But she was destined for tragedy. She was too pretty, too talented, and too nice. She had no idea how high a price they would make her pay for that stardom. The nasty old demons who run Hollywood ate her up like hungry lions. If the studio had left her alone she would probably have enjoyed a long and happy life. They pimped her out and ruined her.
@@FallacyAsPraxis yes💔
@@FallacyAsPraxis увы 😔
@@FallacyAsPraxis I would also add that she had major issues because of a very sad childhood. Her dad abandoned the family & her mom was sent to a mental hospital. Marylin married at 16 but divorced her husband soon after. Hollywood capitalized on her looks and her thirst for ‘wanting to be loved’. Simple as that but so tragic.
@@mona2242 Many blame Hollywood for contributing to her tragedy and they do bear responsibility. However, even if Hollywood was never a part of Marilyn's life, there was no guarantee of Marilyn living a long, happy life as she never appeared to make a choice to confront and deal with her demons - feelings of abandonment and desire to be loved. She appeared not to love herself yet wanted others to love her. She self-medicated with alcohol, drugs and men rather than making the choice to deal with her past trauma. I don't believe that there was no one in her life that could not see the destructive path that she was on and didn't lovingly tell her and try to persuade her away from her soul-destroying lifestyle.
She is so cute. I wish that her whole life could’ve been as happy as she was in this moment
Nice words.
Marilyn MonROe, she's great ! Don't worry, she's very happy at this moment, and a nice yt channel she has btw 😍😍😍😍😍
Me too
Marilyn Ho
Yeah and her life was also tragic than ours
This has probably has to be one of the greatest salutes and ways to thank a soldier. A woman, beautiful inside and out, sharing her talents in a very flirtatious, fun-loving, gracious, sensual, and gorgeous manner. True love. Not tacky, or over the top, but a bit daring too. She still was classy. I think the men must have really been moved actually
She was the first hypergamous feemale of her time and many feemales followed her first steps when feminism hit the scene.... Nothing special just ****titution and she capitalized very well, she got with President for money and resources for goodness sake! But lets stop praising these lifestyles of females who use their bodies to get what they want!
Totally agree with all you said, and was thinking the same thing. She did these performances with love (and she was good!) and was titillating but also tasteful.
Yip. They don't make them like this anymore. She was 100% natural to boot!
the word is cheeky :) with class!
I love that she repeats a line twice, smiles adorably, and keeps going. True professional. I only caught it because I know the lyrics.
Marilyn was quoted as saying in an interview, that this performance was the first time she realized she was famous. For the longest time she couldn’t believe that people really loved her and was very self conscious of her talent.
Legion!
I believe her.
Красотка
Over the years hollywood has failed to replace marilyn, 65 years after her death and her name is still powerful, her personality,charisma, sense of humour and fashion still stands the test of time indeed she was a woman far ahead of her time.
She is absolutely beautiful! I love her! I just starting loving her! ❤️
Why did you mean 65 years wasn't it 59 years because of you put 1962 + 59 you get 2021

How awesome! My boyfriends grandpa is in his 90s and served as a medic in the Korean War also. Is your grandfather still with you? I should really start asking my bfs grandpa if he saw Marilyn. He met Frank Sinatra a couple times and Lucille Balle once he loves telling stories of his time in the Army, so many great ones

OMG how beautiful she was. It breaks my heart to see how women that have embraced their beauty and intelligence be destroyed for just those things. But she got the last laugh. They're still drooling over her. What an amazing talent.
How she was destroyed and when?
@@SlayBaseOne she wasn’t destroyed, she was diminished by mainstream society to her looks while she was also very intelligent. However, it is Hollywood
she looks and seems like a very charismatic and energetic person. not only in this video but also when she sung happy birthday to jfk she was jumping up and down clapping. she seems very genuine and informal which i love.
I forget that she’s a real person sometimes Becuz I only see her in pictures/drawings 😂
So true
shes iconic ............
*she was a real person
Exactly my thoughts while I was watching this..
same 😹
Marilyn said that this was one of the best moments of her life.
Она прекрасна,не жеманна,не высокомерна..Отдает себя,без остатка в жестах,чувствах и мимике,наслаждаясь отдачей чувств от зрителей!!! Она уникальна...
This is so great! Thanks for posting. I always thought she was a terrific singer and this really proves it. I heard she caught pneumonia from singing in just her little cocktail dress out in the freezing cold. She didn't want to disappoint the troops. Apparently Joe DiMaggio was eclipsed by her fame while there so just shows how popular she was already.
You can’t catch pneumonia from the cold or being cold. Medical fact.
This woman was a true star! She lit up on stage! She was magical and beautiful. There aren't too many people that can do that today! No Wonder why Marilyn's talent lives on! and There wont be anyone like her. She will live in the hearts and minds of many for a very long time!

Aubrey Caraballo lol that a over statement real talent is Mariah

Whitney was horrible mother and killed her self leaving her child to kill her self . Whitney ruined her self and her voice . Mariah is classily and better
Missy T lol Whitney voice in 2000s was HORRID their video of the news even saying why is she having a farewell concert when she sounds how she sounds , she was younger than Mariah too . Whitney was just cover singer her biggest hit is a cover song . Mariah has Christmas classic she wrote that will live past Whitney and everyone else

Doesn't the crowd seem to be a little integrated? Seems like a very early time for everyone to be getting along.
Lou S the crowd were troops. In a time of war and after being trained to kill, I’m pretty certain the majority of those men (that used to think like that) changed their way of thinking. Simply not caring about race anymore after believing any day could be their last.

I've heard Madonna compare herself to Marilyn several times. In your dreams. Only in your dreams.
I live in Incheon, Korea and it's freakishly cold here in winter all over Korea. You can see the snow over the mountains in the video. I heard from my uncle, who had been in Korea for over 25 years, that back in the day, it was even -22 or lower than that in the old days. Seeing her in that dress in such a cold weather just so that she could entertain the soldiers, I have so much respect for her. ❤

Marilyn Monroe was the Embodiment of Heaven 💋♥️💋🏆♥️💋👏🏽🏆👏🏽🏆I also was happy to see the mixed races of the GIs enjoying the beautiful show together. God bless them all 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
So happy she got this experience which helped her realize how loved and adored she was by her audience. And what she brought to the table as a performer.
Can you believe she interrupted her honeymoon with Joe the Yankee clipper to entertain the troops and encourage the wounded? Brilliant! Considering MM was a film actress who required many takes to get it just right this was great. Here she is performing live on stage in front of thousands in the freezing cold with a live band no less and back up singers. She did ten shows for the adoring troops and sang one signature song after another with aplomb. She could have easily performed on Broadway or had a Vegas show and raked in millions. What a gal!

Maybe You Also Didn't Watch Her Interviews on How it Took Her Hours to Get Ready to Become 'Marilyn' or How Ppl Did Not Recognize Her at All When She Went Out in Public 🤷🏽♀️ ..That's What I'm Jealous of? 😆 By the Way, I'm Only Watching This Video Because They Mention it in a Book I'm Reading.
Antoinette Jolie - Madame Sade Thanks for your comment... and confirming what I said. You've worked in the entertainment business for years... and you've gotten absolutely nowhere. So you see someone as dazzling as Marilyn and you're probably sitting there wondering how this person with "too much make up and big thighs" made it and you haven't, (as I'm sure you're thinking, judging on your comments). Well listen lady, being a star isn't just about looks; it's about charisma and the way you connect with people. And the few comments I've read from you REEK of bitterness and jealousy.
And I don't know why women always cut each other like that. You gals are always claiming men are the sexist ones. But, really, you lot don't have each others backs at all. Particularly if the target is attractive. I've seen this too many times. I wasn't trying to offend you, really. But you absolutely fall into the category of women who see a successful woman and wonder why it isn't you. You WISH you could have this effect on people like Marilyn did - there you are night after night working in clubs / on stage / whatever / trying to make your dreams come true. But you are still in the waiting line.
My advice? Enjoy those that can, like Marilyn. And be happy with what you've got. I'm sure you're a nice person. You need to reconnect to that part of yourself and appreciate other women's talents rather than leaving catty remarks on UA-cam, (body shaming??) I get the feeling you're more than that. Take care.
No "Modern day" Hollywood Woman can match her beauty charm and sheer screen presence. And by modern day I mean after 1980's
No they can actually lol
There are lots of beautiful women, and they all come in different shapes, sizes, colours. But Marilyn is definitely way up there.
I mean Lana Del Rey comes very very close
@@kronkspapi4245 No Lana is beautiful, but Mairlyn created her image no producer contributed to her career. She know what both man and women wanted in a star.
Her beauty is different, just like other woman. I guess that’s why she is so liked because she like other woman, has a different aura that everyone prefer. I mean it’s on the person preference on what they like.
My grandfather who is Turkish served in the korean war he became a big fan of Marilyn Monroe since then
I have video taken from some soldier in that audience during that show. It and the projector were donated to us and I started watching the reels and came across that footage. Pretty cool to see.
Literally every man in the whole world around that time were soooo genuinely in love with Marilyn!
Not sure it was genuine love. More like admiration and/or infatuation.
Can’t blame them tbh. I wasn’t around back then and can admit she was a stunning looking lady.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995 and lust
@@fionahamilton7231 She was abused all her life, especially by men. She killed herself feeling unloved, she was only 36. Men's lust is temporary and not deep, they wanted to own her, possess her but not love her.
@@lunalu552 Sorry, she didn't kill herself. The Kennedy's took care of that and the one who injected and overdosed her that evening was Dr. Green, her physician .Even her housekeeper betrayed her in the end.Nobody of her entourage was permitted on her funeral and with good reason. Her ex husband J . DiMaggio new they destroyed and killed her.So the statement is : she was murdered ans karma took care of the two brothers !
she was so skinny, i don't understand people calling her fat?
Too many folk are HATERS. That's sad and TYPICAL today:(
Even when she was at her heaviest she was thin, that's Hollyweird for ya!! In fact look at pics of her at her heaviest she was gorgeous and looked like a woman should. If only people could have known then what runway models today would look like imagine what they would have thought and said. It's absolutely disgusting.
Look it Up! She Was Very Heavy in the Thigh Area at Times. She Wasn't Always 'Skinny'
Nickey O'Nickes did she? Or were they forced abortions from studios executives and her handlers... she had very little control of her life
Suzanne Lammens I bet they sacrificed the babies.
She was so authentic humble w grace and never conceited nor stuck up things for what she still shines up to today
She is very very talented, she can sing, dance, act.
She seems so free, so happy and wow even more beautiful (if that’s even possible) what a gloriously complex woman!!!! On international woman’s day..... I gotta say Marilyn your a whole lot of woman xxxx
Freezing cold outside and she is dressed like palm springs!! The boys thank you Miss Monroe!!
She’s a he.
@@theresa8843?????
She knew the boys wanted to see her all of her
Why thank her? it’s sad that she felt like she needed to freeze to entertain them
weirdo it’s not sad it’s her job lol she got paid millions just off being pretty
My beloved Father was there! He often talked about Marilyn and Bob Hope entertaining the troops. We lost him in 2020 and life will never be the same. He was my hero 😢
God bless ALL VETS! 😇❤️🇺🇸
This is such an amazing video and especially the comments on it 🥺
glad i saw this ❤️
From in Kazakhstan
Oh my god I love this Thank you!!
Oh my god

Sad that she didn’t live the fame she earned
What happened?
@@robyncampbell48 they killed her
Ikr
@@robyncampbell48 drug overdose??? What's ya talking about?? She was murdered in cold blood!!!
@@robyncampbell48
Actually I think she was murdered first. She didn’t die until later.
Still better quality video then anything filmed in the 90s with VHS.
NOBODY will ever have what Marilyn had
Still the most beautiful woman ever.
No. She was one of the most beautiful. Greta Garbo and Debbie Reynolds were just as beautiful.
I aggree that magnatism she had has never been duplicated its beyond beauty with a hint of vunerability..... ❤️MM
+Jack Peart Yasss!
If you like immoral women who sell themselves, fuck presidents and throw it in the face of their wives.
Jack Peart she lived a depressing life being bossed around behind closed doors though. :(
She’s very gracious and glamorous. No one can pull it off like her in this generation. She would just stand there and sing so graciously and it’s wonderful and classy.
Even the singers in the back look in love with her
She was actually good singer and a great performer and I wish she could be heard more - I know they were thrilled to see her, but I wish they could have quietened down a bit and listened to her great performance.
It's 2020 and Marilyn was, and will ALWAYS be, *THE QUEEN OF HOLLYWOOD!*
Surely
No doubt.
yes.
the Corr's have a song by that name, it's really good. idk if it is specifically about Marilyn, but that's up to the listener on this one.
@@tomj4406 I didn't know that...I'll have to check that out and give it a listen. : )
My dad was in the audience 💜
If your dad was there, you were also there.
Jenny Casey omg mine too!Twins
pics or didn’t happened
trippy cesar *YOUR LOL
trippy cesar dumbass 😂😂 lmfao
This is wonderful! In the very first biography ever written about Marilyn, by Fred Lawrence Guiles, it was stated that her performance in Korea was the most photographed event on the planet up to that time.
Yes ❤️ thanks for these videos!!!
Marilyn Monroe was specifically 😎
Wonderful, amazingly beautiful,
Talented. She knew
What she could do, and did it. 😊 🙏, you still Twinkle
Definitely a huge
Thank You for you like my comments, currently and weeks past.
Hugs
No wonder why the world keeps talking about it, she is a real beauty. She's beautiful!
Troops: jackets ontop jackets
Marilyn: *defies coldness*
Random Thoughts 👍🏻👍🏻
What a loss, a beautiful person from within, although we are from two different eras, she represents simplicity and humility despite her extraordinary beauty. At first glance, it leaves you with a good impression
Marilyn was determined to entertain the soldiers despite the cold. She was a sweet, good and loving person. Would have been great to see her in an Elvis picture or else sing a song with him. Two beautiful people inside and out. ❤️❤️
Rare Footage Of Marilyn Monroe Entertaining The Troops On Stage In Korea 1954
Rare footage with sound ..Feb 1954 Marilyn Singing Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend, Bye Bye Baby and Do It Again. Marilyn said it was the highlight of her life to sing for the soldiers in Korea. I have complied the footage into one video
L v
Sorry sweetie it couldnt have been 1954, the Korean War ended July 27th, 1953 so thats impossible she was there in 1954😉
+southsyde Sasha First, the Korean War technically never ended. No peace treaty was ever signed. Just because an armistice was signed in 1953 didn't mean all the American troops went home right after that. Many remained to help the ROK Army guard the border. American troops remain in Korea to this day -- there are over 28,000 U.S. personnel there right now.
Yeah i found that out thanks guys my bad.. Shes an angel to go there& btw when she died one photo was in her wallet, it was here in Korea... She said was THE happiest time in her life.....
Richard Hall thank you for educating me about that, i didnt know💋✌🏾️✌🏾✌🏾
She has a sooo modern look! Timeless beauty!
Marilyn Monroe será sempre eterna. Eterna lembrança dessa grande e maravilhosa atriz.
She's really quite an accomplished singer. What a beauty!
Miss Monroe gave a lot to entertain men stuck in a lousy war far from home.
To say she cheered them up is an understatement.
Notice even the musicians can't take their eyes off her...same thing when Elvis sings, his guys always have their eyes on him too 👀
Agree, two of the most beautiful, charismatic and talented people to have ever walked the planet!
@@xdra31 add on Michael Jackson and you have a killer trio
@@NotJoegoldberg Bit different with Jackson as he moved around the stage and danced a lot so his band really couldn't look at him in the same way as Marilyn and Elvis who were more stationary.
@@NotJoegoldberg Agree, but Michael ruined his looks with too much cosmetic surgery. He was beautiful imo naturally, but if only he’d not had anything else done after how he looked in the early eighties, he would have been perfect!
@@ReddishNeck Have you actually ever watched Elvis, either from his beginning years or later on in concert during his jumpsuit years? You could never say he was stationary, especially at the beginning!
Plus you cannot put Marilyn in the same bracket as Elvis and Michael, because Marilyn was never a professional singer. She was an actress by profession who just happened to sing!
She had a kind heart and was a great actress and great lady..
Her light will shine forever...⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
She was so talented actress! She can sing, dance, act, make a show. She was 100% professional
