Everything a man wants on a woman . She was that and much more . Let alone her hot body from head to toe . The beautiful sexy eyes , smile , great ass and legs . But also very sexy in everything she did .Her walk , when she sat down , when she looked .Very submissive .Loved the atention , ithe essence of femininity .Unlike the women today .Stock up , cocky , dirty mouth , trashy , unpolight , bad manners and masculine .
she was one of the most beautiful person the earth could have posesed but sadly nobody seem to be unselfish enough to make her strong or encourage her like her"aunt" grace did, everybody wanted her money, posses her or gain something by hanging around her. nobody really knew her well and even now most people thing bad or misleading things about Marilyn. if you read the book by j randy taraborrelli you'll know the real Marilyn with facts, stuff said by family, actors and closest friends of hers.
Marilyn no sabes como te amo y como no se, me identifico aunque no sea un ex simbol wjk. just te amo. ojala algún día pueda visitar tu tumba, sera un momento único en mi vida, aunque siempre me quede con su gracia y tu vida.
marilyn, fuiste, sos y seras ÚNICA, nadie podrá robarte/igualar eso. para mi fuiste enviada de otro lado,. no se, planeta, cielo,galaxia, whatever.
@adlereagle123 Long story short, apparently, a "20th Century Fox" executive thought that "Norma Jeane" wouldn't work in the movie business. After several different ideas, the name "Marilyn" was settled upon (after Broadway star of the "turn of the century"...Marilyn Miller). "Monroe" was the maiden name of Norma Jeane's mother.
Marilyn Monroe, the famous screen legend was overweight, peaking at a dress size of 16, yet America still considered her the most beautiful woman in all of history.
Next year on August 5th, It will have been 50 years since the world lost its brightest star. But no-one will ever forget her. She's touched so many lives, So many generations...Your star is just as bright now as it was 50 years ago. RIP Norma - Jeane Mortenson. AKA Marilyn Monroe <3
Marilyn, I only want to hug you, poor beautiful babe. You are the best woman of history. Beautiful, sweet, with a traumatic past. I never forget you Norma Jane :*
@Messylin YOU got be joking! I really hate ppl say that! It just show You have no idea what are u talking about! Read up about Norma Jeane (Mortenson)'s life and Diana's. Diana is great,but she hardlly fought that much to get to that postion(Personally I think the most sad thing is that Diana is "there" when She didn't try to get there!). Norma Jeane actually had FIGHT to get where she is.
@dhburnett: "1945-1947 Her successful modeling career brought her to the attention of Ben Lyon, a 20th Century Fox executive, who arranged a screen test for her. It was there that they decided to find her a new name. Following her idol Jean Harlow, she decided to choose her mother's maiden name of Monroe. Lyon, however, felt that the name "Marilyn Monroe" was sexy, had a "nice flow", and would be "lucky" due to the double "M" and thus Norma Jeane Baker took the name Marilyn Monroe."
@dhburnett: find more about marilyn monroe check "marilynmonroefamily" Monroe's birth certificate names the father as" Martin Edward Mortensen"( 2nd husband of Monroe mother GLADY),they had separated before Gladys' pregnancy. Although Gladys immediately had it changed to Baker, the surname of her first husband and which she still used. (Both MORTENSEN or BAKER are ALL NOT MONROE FATHER) The likely father of Norma Jeane, would have been Stanley Gifford,glady's coworker.
I see so many similarities between Marilyn and Diana, and not because of this song being shared between them. They both gave the world an emotional symbol on which to plant their dreams.
She is a Angle: god bless her... am just sorry she is not here with us & as a 17 year old girl... i want to have he bright, smart and pretty smile :D cause she is so bright! even her smile light's up the darkest of time's, when she act's she make's you smile and laugh.... but really we will know her for ever as the woman who took it 1 step further and all.
yes it 1997 it was for princess diana but the origanal song was for marilyn monroe. her name is in the song look it up just saying he states that the song is for her then when the princess pasted he changed the lyrics of the song when he sang it for her:) thanks
@Tanzanite800 Actually Elton John originally wrote this song in 1973 to honour Marilyn Monroe and then rewrote it in 1997 as a tribute to Princess Diana.
"Elton John's performance of "Candle In The Wind '97" on September 6, 1997 at Princess Diana's funeral was in front of probably in front of the biggest audience in probably anyone's life - a total viewing figure of over 2.5 billion." Obviously it was directed more towards Diana. Enough Said.
@Tanzanite800 a lot of Hollywood stars names were changed in those days. For instance, Frances Gumm was renamed Judy Garland and Marion Morrison became John Wayne. The studio heads felt that the name Norma Jean Dougherty (her married name) was not bankable, so they changed it. There are many legends to how they came up with "Marilyn Monroe." One thing is for sure, "Monroe" was her mother's maiden name so that may have come into effect.
I think Marilyn suits her better so I'm glad she choose that. Now that I think about it I can see why Elton John also choose to sing this song at Di's funeral. Marilyn and Diana are both quite similar in the fact that they are both strong, bold, and daring. They are also both the epitome of glamour, so that's probably why he choose to dedicate it to both of them.
@Tanzanite800 In the song, it also mentions Marilyn Monroe by name. In the second verse he says, "... All the papers had to say was that Marilyn was found in the nude," and in the last verse he says, "... Who sees you as something more than sexual, more than just our Marilyn Monroe." The song was originally featured in Elton John's album "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" as a tribute to Monroe. In 1990 John dedicated the song to AIDS victim Ryan White. In 1997 he again reused the song for Diana.
it's in the song... I guess you'd have to ask Elton. He co-wrote the song w another (straight) guy. But I take it to mean that he saw her as a real whole human being & not just the money-making sex goddess that rang the Hollywood cash register...ka ching. The whole 'glow'... inner~light thing man
@dmng825 But how do you do surgery on the soul to 'fix' that? Hers was flawed & imperfect but beautiful. Men will always project their own desires on women.... but when do we start seeing them as whole persons ~something more than just sexual from the 22nd row? With all the tawdry plethora of pin-ups available to us do we keep coming back to her? There was a kindness there... a sweet soul we're still trying to protect against the hazards of this world.... a lonely & fragile candle in the wind

@dmng825 the words are-"From the young man in the 22nd row who sees you as something more then sexual more that just our Marilyn Monroe" he means he sees her as wht she was a beautiful woman struggling to be accepted by the thugs who ran Hollywood in those days and would and could churn out 100 girls to replace her if she didnt do what they wanted.
The US military were very smart for having Marilyn Monroe tour for the troops. She really poured out her heart and soul for the troops, and I bet it gave many of them the inspiration to continue fighting.
@gagaster12 Marilyn Monroe was an actress and singer in the late 1950s and early 60s. She was known for her sex appeal as well as her talent. She was also very famous for having an affair with President Kennedy (as well as his brother, bobby) She died at the very young age of 32 in 1962. It was origonally thought that she commited suicide ( because of the overdose on sleeping pills) But in later years people thought she may have been killed as a mafia hit because of her affair with the Kennedy's
this is the saddest song i've ever heard... Norma was an awesome human being, don't know why, but i've got this feeling who want hug her so bad and protect her...
I know I never knew her but when I hear this song and see pictures of Marilyn it makes me want to cry because she was fabulous and she didn't deserve to die in her thirties. I wish I knew her, she is my idol. R.I.P Norma Jean x
Ciao Marilyn... da quando mi sono fatta bionda, tanta gente mi dice che ricordo te... cosa che per me e' solo un onore... Mi dispiace per tutto quello che ti e' successo... so quello che si prova... cercare disperatamente protezione... non scegliamo noi di chi innamorarci.. MAI... quindi tu hai sempre e solo ascoltato il tuo cuore... l'essenziale si vede con quello : )) ... Chi e' depositario di certi segreti non conoscera' MAI la morte : ). Sei molto amata ora... Goodbye Norma Jean. Chiara
Abandonment, loneliness, incredible yearning for unconditional love, and a soul without the chance to "grow up" , remains a little girl in a constant search for fulfillment.....what a beautiful woman, with a sharper wit and mind than ever publicly portrayed. That is the frustration, demise, and defeat.
She drew within herself, as nobody in her circle loved her for the right reasons.
@nixternikki ...the most perceptive comment I've ever seen on youtube about 'our Marilyn'.... the incredible pain of an abandoned child....and perhaps abused as well. Protect the candle's flame in your own children... & in your own hearts
je t'aime Marilyn et je t'aimerais toujours... depuis le dimanche 05/08/1962, je suis triste et ne suis plus le même.. Marilyn, que te dire de plus que tu ne saches déja??? mon rêve avant de mourir serait d'aller voir ta tombe et ça, tu le sais.. je te l'ai même promis... bonne nuit belle et délicieuse Marilyn, je t'aime hyper fort car tu me manques follement...
I guess she had a lot of self esteem issues and had the great fear of disappointing others. If only her spirit could walk the earth to see what kind of a MEGA-icon she has become, how many (millions and millions)of true adoring fans she has, and that she is #6 on the A.F.I.'s top 100 list of the best actors/actresses of all times.
All she wanted was to be remembered as a good actress and not just a eye candy for people to look at.But that was her gift and her curse,people couldn't help but just to watch her and ignore everything else.From the day she was born,she was mis-understood.If she was alive to see the effect she ended up having on Hollywood and the rest of the world....she may have died alot happier.She was famous as Marilyn,but she was happiest as Norma Jeane.Happy Birthday.xoxo
Happy 85th Birthday Norma Jean. You will never be forgotten. I think MM would be amazed how much people still think about her almost 50 years after her death.
This woman is one of the most influential women in time, not only did she inspire people when she was alive, but to still be inspiring people, to this very day is amazing.!
The impact she had on the world is legendary and it is such a shame she cannot see what she has done for so many people over the years.!
she had no idea the impact she would have, even all these many years later in a completely different world that we live in to hers, young girls discover her now and idolise her, few will ever have that impact
does anyone have the video this preformance i wanna know what went on at 1:25 and i became a fan of marilyn about a month ago im seventeen adn a guy i wanna be famous so bad and marilyn was gourgous i hate what happend to her it makes me so horrified this song brings me so close to tears especally at "never knowin who to cling to when the rain set in" idk but that line really hits me
I've always loved this song. There's a part of the song around 1:25-1:30 where Elton starts singing and then the audience starts clapping.I never understood why. Did someone walk on the stage then? or was there a picture of Marilyn Monroe,being unveiled? I never understood why the audience was clapping at this part of the song.Does anyone know? Thank You.
when a gay man write a song about you long after your dealth. It show what a goddess you really are Marilyn. Your beauty, your smile and your voice is just like nothing on this planet. You're a angle walking on earth and there will never be another like you. I wish i can go back in time so i can see your beauty in person.
2:54... that scene from her movie "Niagara" is so breathtaking! It's hard watching vids such as these, because while you want to marvel in how stunning Marilyn was, those of you that know her true story know that Hollywood was exploiting Marilyn for their own greedy and selfish agendas. Parading her around everywhere and promoting her as a sex symbol, yet, Hollywood thought very little of Marilyn and treated her like a dumb blonde. It's a shame. In reality, Marilyn was so gifted and intelligent.
what a beautiful song, written about a beautiful woman. Sadly Hollywood has never learned it's lesson because what they did to her, they continue to do to others.
This is such a beautiful tribute to Marilyn Monroe. So much negativity surrounded her life and death so to write something that memorializes her is just beyond words.

@gagaster12 Marilyn Monroe was an actress and singer in the late 1950s and early 60s. She was known for her sex appeal as well as her talent. She was also very famous for having an affair with President Kennedy (as well as his brother, bobby) She died at the very young age of 32 in 1962. It was origonally thought that she commited suicide ( because of the overdose on sleeping pills) But in later years people thought she may have been killed as a mafia hit because of her affair with the Kennedy's

Ciao Marilyn... da quando mi sono fatta bionda, tanta gente mi dice che ricordo te... cosa che per me e' solo un onore... Mi dispiace per tutto quello che ti e' successo... so quello che si prova... cercare disperatamente protezione... non scegliamo noi di chi innamorarci.. MAI... quindi tu hai sempre e solo ascoltato il tuo cuore... l'essenziale si vede con quello : )) ... Chi e' depositario di certi segreti non conoscera' MAI la morte : ). Sei molto amata ora... Goodbye Norma Jean. Chiara

Abandonment, loneliness, incredible yearning for unconditional love, and a soul without the chance to "grow up" , remains a little girl in a constant search for fulfillment.....what a beautiful woman, with a sharper wit and mind than ever publicly portrayed. That is the frustration, demise, and defeat.
She drew within herself, as nobody in her circle loved her for the right reasons.

RIP angel, you are forever cherished.

I guess she had a lot of self esteem issues and had the great fear of disappointing others. If only her spirit could walk the earth to see what kind of a MEGA-icon she has become, how many (millions and millions)of true adoring fans she has, and that she is #6 on the A.F.I.'s top 100 list of the best actors/actresses of all times.

All she wanted was to be remembered as a good actress and not just a eye candy for people to look at.But that was her gift and her curse,people couldn't help but just to watch her and ignore everything else.From the day she was born,she was mis-understood.If she was alive to see the effect she ended up having on Hollywood and the rest of the world....she may have died alot happier.She was famous as Marilyn,but she was happiest as Norma Jeane.Happy Birthday.xoxo

I've always loved this song. There's a part of the song around 1:25-1:30 where Elton starts singing and then the audience starts clapping.I never understood why. Did someone walk on the stage then? or was there a picture of Marilyn Monroe,being unveiled? I never understood why the audience was clapping at this part of the song.Does anyone know? Thank You.

@Nelsonhojax15 its "more than sexual, more than just our...." as opposed to "more THEN". Small I know, but that is the correct wording.

2:54... that scene from her movie "Niagara" is so breathtaking! It's hard watching vids such as these, because while you want to marvel in how stunning Marilyn was, those of you that know her true story know that Hollywood was exploiting Marilyn for their own greedy and selfish agendas. Parading her around everywhere and promoting her as a sex symbol, yet, Hollywood thought very little of Marilyn and treated her like a dumb blonde. It's a shame. In reality, Marilyn was so gifted and intelligent.
