Marilyn Monroe was the face of some of the biggest projects of her time, and there is no question why she rose to the top in a male-led industry. The actress was the definition of perfection, with the perfect looks, skills, and persona to become a leading star in the entertainment industry. However, she was often seen merely as a sex symbol and considered a “Dumb Blond” despite her impeccable intellect and enormous heart.
Marilyn Monroe rose to fame for her work in films such as How to Marry a Millionaire. However, with fame came constant limelight, public scrutiny and exploitation. And, unfortunately for the star, her life contained more tragedies than happiness. Often regarded as the sex symbol of the 1950s and early 1960s, she was the decade’s top-billed actress. Nonetheless, instead of being treated with the honour and dignity she deserved, her grave was exploited by the two men for their own gratification.
