      As Marilyn herself said hold a thought for me and I think she"s smiling down on all of us for holding that thought for her ❤ Happy birthday Norna Jean/Marilyn from someone born after your candle blew out. 🙏🕯

      I was a Marilyn Monroe posthumous fan when I was nine years old, my grandmother had Some Like It Hot ‘59 and she told me stories about her real name Norma Jeane and other movies like Niagara, Gentleman Prefer Blondes with Co-Star Jane Russell and Prince and the Showgirl with Co-Star Lawrence Olivier, and the Seven Year Itch with the iconic dress scene.

      She was more than a Blonde and a Bombshell she was a glamorous icon.

      If she woke up today, she would have finally felt the happiness she had sought for so long since she achieved her greatest dream: to be remembered forever.

      a fun fact: Most Hollywood stars had dressers/tailors she shopped for herself and had excellent taste in clothes and accessories, there is a book published with the tickets of what she purchased. And she layered her lipstick shades. She is a Legend!
