About this deal

Monroe’s impact has been incomparable through the decades. Who hasn’t come across at least one of the Shot Marilyns paintings by Andy Warhol? And people can’t forget Kim Kardashian’s homage to Monroe at the 2022 Met Gala. Unbelievable Facts About Marilyn Monroe Furthermore, at the 2022 Met Gala, reality star Kim Kardashian grabbed the headlines by wearing the same dress Monroe wore in her happy birthday speech to President JFK, one of her last public appearances. Kardashian not only milked Monroe’s name to gain a spotlight, but she also tore the dress, sparking outrage from Monroe’s fans. Monroe's screen persona focused on her blonde hair and the stereotypes that were associated with it, especially dumbness, naïveté, sexual availability and artificiality. [299] She often used a breathy, childish voice in her films, and in interviews gave the impression that everything she said was "utterly innocent and uncalculated", parodying herself with double entendres that came to be known as "Monroeisms". [300] For example, when she was asked what she had on in the 1949 nude photo shoot, she replied, "I had the radio on". [301] As seen in this publicity photo for The Seven Year Itch (1955), Monroe wore figure-hugging outfits that enhanced her sexual attractiveness. Review: 'Some Like It Hot' ". Variety.

When the studio was still reluctant to change Monroe's contract, she founded her own film production company in 1954. She dedicated 1955 to building the company and began studying method acting under Lee Strasberg at the Actors Studio. Later that year, Fox awarded her a new contract, which gave her more control and a larger salary. Her subsequent roles included a critically acclaimed performance in Bus Stop (1956) and her first independent production in The Prince and the Showgirl (1957). She won a Golden Globe for Best Actress for her role in Some Like It Hot (1959), a critical and commercial success. Her last completed film was the drama The Misfits (1961).

In Gledhill, Christine (ed.). Stardom: Industry of Desire. Routledge. ISBN 978-0-415-05217-7. Twentieth Century-Fox further profited from Monroe's popularity by cultivating several lookalike actresses, such as Jayne Mansfield and Sheree North. [327] Other studios also attempted to create their own Monroes: Universal Pictures with Mamie Van Doren, [328] Columbia Pictures with Kim Novak, [329] and The Rank Organisation with Diana Dors. [330] Endometriosis also caused her to experience severe menstrual pain throughout her life, necessitating a clause in her contract allowing her to be absent from work during her period; her endometriosis also required several surgeries. [220] It has sometimes been alleged that Monroe underwent several abortions, and that unsafe abortions made by persons without proper medical training would have contributed to her inability to maintain a pregnancy. [221] The abortion rumors began from statements made by Amy Greene, the wife of Milton Greene, but have not been confirmed by any concrete evidence. [222] Furthermore, Monroe's autopsy report did not note any evidence of abortions. [222]
