There is hardly anyone who would question her identity. Monroe earned a reputation of a blonde bombshell becoming one of the most legendary stars of her generation. As a top-billed actress for a decade, her films grossed $200 million in total by her passing.
Her appearance in «Gentlemen Prefers Blondes» and «Someone Like It Hot» established her as one of the greatest female screen legends. Despite being called a dumb blonde, Monroe was fond of reading books and had exceptional intelligence.
Sadly enough, the star was gone because of an overdose of medicine. To say that her passing broke the hearts of millions is nothing to say. She took her life at the age of 36 inside her home. Not everyone knows that she suffered from mental illness and addiction. The star left the world in tears and grief and even today her name is among those of the greatest cinema legends as well as beauty icons.
Her rare archive photos let us have a glimpse into her personal life. They also revealed what the actress actually looked like behind the scenes of films and photoshoots. No one will deny that she surely was a woman above average and, of course, deserved a better life.
