I have adored Marilyn for as long as I can remember...There is nothing in the world that says 'bad-ass chick' than the legendary blonde bombshell of classic Americana...
Regardless of a tortured soul who oozed with the sex appeal of the stereotypical 'dumb blonde' persona she portrayed to fans and critics, alike. However, underneath the platinum curls, hourglass figure and numerous failures in romance, Marilyn was wise beyond her 36 years, at the time of her death on August 5th, 1962. During her rein as one of Hollywood's leading ladies, she established iconic professional success in a male-dominated world. During her career, Marilyn grossed a shocking fortune of more than 200-million dollars, formed her own production company Marilyn Monroe Productions, and appeared in more than 15 films during her career...
To me, Marilyn was the epitome of feminine strength and power by rising from the ashes of a difficult childhood into an iconic sex-symbol that has stood the test of time. It isn't every day that the world is graced with a woman who is successful, intelligent, glamorous, and hardworking, with the legendary sex appeal that will never go out of style...
