An illegitimate child whose father (Edward Mortensen) had deserted her mother (Gladys Baker, nee Monroe) before she was born, Norma Jean endured a childhood of poverty and misery, sexual abuse (at the age of eight) and years in foster homes and orphanages after her mother suffered a nervous breakdown and was institutionalized.Escape from this cycle came at the age of sixteen with an arranged marriage to a 21-year-old aircraft plant worker. While working at the Radio Plane Company factory in Burbank, she had her picture taken by a visiting Army photographer. Norma Jean then began modeling bathing suits and, after bleaching her hair blonde, began posing for pinups and glamour photos. Howard Hughes saw some of her photographs and expressed an interest in giving her a screen test for RKO, but Ben Lyon of 20th Century-Fox beat Hughes to the punch, signing Norma Jean Baker to a contract and changing her name to Marilyn Monroe.
After appearing in small parts in films including "Love Happy" (1949) and "All About Eve" (1950), Monroe achieved celebrity with starring roles in three 1953 features--"Niagara," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" and "How To Marry a Millionaire"--as well as a series of nude calendar photos, taken in 1948, which appeared in the December 1953 debut issue of Playboy-magazine. By the end of the year, Monroe had been voted the top star of 1953 by American film distributors. In all her film roles, from "Niagara" to "The Misfits" (1961), Monroe portrayed an object of desire and exhibition. Her basic character grew out of the dumb blonde archetype, but Monroe's dumb blonde could not be pinned down to any particular origin or social class. She was defined only by what was shown on the screen, with neither a previous history nor seemingly a future. Frequently her characters were namelesss ("Love Happy," 1955's "The Seven Year Itch"), further accentuating her status as an object. She usually had no discernable job and when she did, it was a female-relegated profession such as chorus girl, actress or secretary.
But to the dumb blonde stereotype, Monroe added a sense of innocence, naturalism and overt sexuality. Her sexuality was never seen as a threat, but as something harmless and benevolent. Time magazine's sanguine response to Monroe's Playboy centerfold summed up her appeal: "Marilyn believes in doing what comes naturally." Along with this kindly, innocent sexuality went a vulnerability; Monroe's characters were often humiliated at the expense of a voyeuristic pleasure, whether being lassoed like a cow in "Bus Stop" (1956) or exposing herself unknowingly in "Some Like It Hot" (1959). At the height of her fame, Monroe sensed the limited range of her screen persona and clearly desired to change it: "To put it bluntly, I seem to be a whole superstructure without a foundation." Forming Marilyn Monroe Productions in 1956, she produced "Bus Stop" and "The Prince and The Showgirl" (1957).
But her personal problems, with failed marriages to baseball star Joe DiMaggio and playwright Arthur Miller and increasing reliance on drugs to combat depression and physical ailments, served to forestall any serious change in her career. The public wanted Marilyn as they had discovered her in 1953, and that was what they got in "Let's Make Love" (1960). She was still capable of memorable work, especially with top directors like Billy Wilder ("Some Like It Hot") and John Huston ("The Misfits"), but her personal demons, or precarious involvement with people in high places, eventually overwhelmed her. On August 5, 1962, she was found dead of an overdose of sleeping pills. Monroe's was a tragedy in which her public, the media and the Hollywood power brokers all shared blame.

Marilyn Monroe Heat Wave lyrics

We're havin a heat wave
A tropical heat wave
The temperatures rising, it isn't suprising
She certainly can, can can!

She started a heatwave
By letting her seat wave,
in such a way that the customers say
that she certainly can, can-can!

Gee, Gee!
Her anatomy
Makes the mercury
Rise!
to ninety three

We're havin' a heat wave
A tropical heat wave
The way that she moves
The thermometor grooves
that she certainly can!

"What's your name honey?"
"Pablo."
Certianly can
"Chico"
Certainly can
"Miguelito."

"Pablo, Chico, Miguelito"
OOOH! Can Can

"Pablo, it say here under 'weather report'
It's saying, a friendly warm air is
moving in from..."

"WHERE?"

"Jamaica- moderatly high air pressure will cover the north east and.."

"WHERE ELSE?"

"The deep south..
small danger of..."

"WHAT?"

"Fruit frost!
Hot and Humid nights can be expected!"

"Vincent 95, Guadeloupe 97, Santo Domingo 99. Pardon me? 105?"

We're having a heat wave
A tropical heat wave
The tempurature's rising
it isn't suprising, I certainly can- can!

I started this heatwave in such a way
that the customers say that I certainly can (can-can)

The man who need
Makes the mercury rise to 93
We're having a heatwave, a tropical, a tropical heatwave
the way that I move, that thermometer grooves

She certainly certainly certainly can

I certainly certainly certainly can can-can

Marilyn Monroe Bye bye baby lyrics

(Jane Russell's Solo Part)

Marilyn:
I'll be in my room alone
every post meridian
and I'll be with my diary
and that book by Mister Gideon.

Bye, bye baby
remember you're my baby
when they give you the eye,
and just to show that I care
I will write and declare
that I'm on the loose
but I'm still on the square.

I've been lonely
but even though I'm lonely
there'll be no other guy.
Though I'll be gone for a while
I know that I'll be smiling
with my baby by and by
with my baby by and by.

I'll be gloomy
but send that rainbow to me
then my shadows will fly.
Though you'll be gone for a while
I know that I'll be smiling
with my baby bye and bye
