At sixteen, Norma married twenty neighbor Jim Daherti. At first he seemed to her as a savior, but after a while she became tired of this marriage. Norma Jean was tired of housework, and she greeted with relief the news that her husband is leaving for the ocean. Daherti went to serve in the Navy, and Norma Jean sat on aircraft factory, where tested parachutes and painted fuselage. In 1944, a war photographer Conover asked her to make a model. Norma Jean loved to pose, and photographs showing beautiful young woman, eager to please and be seen, sensual and easily wounded at the same time, a peculiar combination of charm and innocence. Norma Jean decided that it can become a star, divorced her husband and became a popular photographer's model, and in 1946 came to the auditions for the film studio Twentieth Century Fox. Kino been extraordinarily successful, and the studio signed her contract. She was advised to make the hair lighter and change the name. So Norma Jean Mortensen became Marilyn Monroe.

"OVERFLOW Bordel"
In early 1947 Marilyn flashed in the movie "Skudda ho! Skudda hey! ". She diligently attended the Actors Studio drama school, when for no apparent reason "Fox" terminated her contract. However, she does not throw study in the studio, earning additionally a model. Marilyn has always created an atmosphere, as if electrified sex. She is constantly thinking about sex, imagine how she would handle it with all the men in a row, which drove her fate. She, however, was not quite so unscrupulous in their sexual relationship and had sex only with men she liked. It is usually preferred men who were older than herself. In the late 40-ies Hollywood was, according to Monroe, "crowded brothel.
She needed help a man who would help her get up from the crowd of third-rate Hollywood beauties at the studio. Marilyn became the first patron of the 70-year-old producer Joe Schenck, a veteran of Hollywood.
At first, Marilyn was how to say it mildly, seamstress on duty oral sex. Then, succeeding in this business, was a favorite umelitsey. Old Schenk often invited beginning actresses in restaurants, as well as to his home and into his study. There he is conveniently located in the chair and fondled her breast Marilyn, who stood before him on his knees and performed Fellatahs. Schenk introduced Marilyn and Harry Cohn - master-tyrant film studio Columbia Pictures. Marilyn started filming there, but she was fired after working on the very first movie, because she allegedly refused to sexual harassment Kona. Comedian Milton Berle, who succeeded where Cohn was unable to do so, later asserted: "She did not try to meet me only because I could help her ... She did it because I liked her. This way, according to many, featured Marilyn. Man, among other things, was to please her. While Marilyn was very fond and Fred Karger, who gave her singing lessons. Fred gladly use of sexual services of Marilyn, but did not respond to her feelings reciprocated.
"I did nothing, only keeps me firmly."
When 22-year old Marilyn was fired from the film studio Columbia Pictures, while she worked in a small bar, where she striptease. There she had a two-week affair with 18-year-old musician Anthony LaVey. They had sex in a motel, and when they did not have money, then the machine Marilyn. LaVey later wrote that Monroe was sexually passive and receives great satisfaction not only from the sex, but from admiration that men have expressed about the beauty of her body. Many of his biographers Marilyn tend to him in this consent. Fred Giles wrote that she was "too preoccupied most of his life in order to adequately respond to all that concerned the men, including even the sex." Norman Mailer said: "With Marilyn was a pleasure to spend time in bed, but she liked to receive, rather than invent something new." Even after becoming a star, Marilyn showed occasionally touching vulnerability. "I do not know whether I do it" - she whispered after a sexual encounter with actor Marlon Brando. Sometimes she climbed naked into bed next to his partner and asked him: "do nothing, just hold me tight." Writer Bob Slattser often "kept" in a way Marilyn and even claimed later that for a short time was married to Marilyn in Mexico. They are very fast and without scandal divorced because Marilyn changed her mind to be his wife. With most men, however, sex was very simple: "They were overflowing with confidence, and I have not had it. They helped me feel better and more confident."
Actresses
After Schenk patron Marilyn was Johnny Hyde, one of the most famous advertising agents in Hollywood. 53-year-old Hyde fell in love with Marilyn and asked her to marry him. She responded to his offer refused. He gave her a sense of security, has given her a new wardrobe and paying for plastic surgery to correct some of the shortcomings of her nose and chin. The most important was the fact that Hyde used his influence and made it possible for Marilyn star in the movie "The Asphalt Jungle" (1950) and "All About Eve" (1950). Marilyn did not get no satisfaction from sex in Hyde, but did not want to hurt his feelings, and each time pretending that undergoes total ecstasy. Before his death, Hyde has provided Monroe a new contract with the company «XX century - Fox. This time, it guaranteed $ 500 a week. The contract was concluded for seven years and provided for a gradual increase in the fee to $ 1500 a week.
Painting by John Huston "Asphalt Jungle" came on the screens in June 1950. Monroe in the role of mistress of an aging criminal commentators noted the New York Post and the Herald Tribune. The Times called the game Monroe impeccable. But in the life of an actress, little had changed. She still acted in episodes, most often to create images of Marilyn those women air creatures who in their own way, and frankly sweet, captivate men, sing and dance. In 1951, she signed up for the evening faculty of the University of California at Los Angeles, stopping his choice of literature and art. In addition, she began taking lessons from Michael Chekhov, one of the founders of the Stanislavsky system. In the early fifties in his role of Marilyn Monroe delineated turn: from it began to make a comic vamp. It is in this vein, she played the role of corrupt beauty in a painting by Henry Hathaway "Niagara" (1952). Marilyn was demonic synthesis "femme fatale" type of Marlene Dietrich and sex-bomb under a Rita Hayward.
The success of Marilyn Monroe in "Niagara" has surpassed all expectations. October 4, 1952 Monroe secretly married in Mexico has issued a novice film producer Robert Slettserom. Immediately upon his return to Hollywood, they were summoned to the studio head Zanuck, said: "We are preparing Marilyn for millions of men. We have invested huge money in it. The contract has no right to be the wife of an unknown man ... "And sorry newlyweds hurried back to Mexico, where, by bribing a lawyer, persuaded him to destroy the marriage certificate.
That same year, he guessed her comic talent Hawks takes a classic musical "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" - singing, dancing, super show, on Marilyn - Fleur immorality: the song "Money - the other girls' flies America. Her heroine - hunting for rich men. And another thing: Monroe yet fits perfectly into the concept of "rehearse reality, the key to Hollywood.
This remarkable musical 1950 Marilyn brought a huge success, even though it paid only 18 thousand dollars, whereas the fees of its partner Jane Russell has made 100 thousand dollars.
Marilyn Monroe, or simply MM, turned into a sex symbol of America. "Sexuality is attractive only when it is natural and spontaneous. We are all born sexual creatures, but sorry, very sorry that many of us destroy and despise this natural gift of nature ... "- she said. The famous photographer Bert Stern wrote about the actress: "... Marilyn Monroe - a fantasy. If she had stopped moving, its beauty would be lost. When I removed it, it was a feeling that the photograph published. Marilyn radiated power. It was like the wind, like a comet. She was a goddess.
Still, Marilyn dreamed of something else: "I want to grow and develop and play serious dramatic role."
In the film Negulesko "Marry a Millionaire" (1953) Monroe appears as a short-sighted girl who is not from coquetry points and then gets into funny situations. Her mates were celebrities - Betty Grable and Lauren Beykol.
Later the director told: "During filming, she half-seriously, half jokingly came to the set at 16 hours instead of 10 o'clock. It said that she could not find the film studios. And this is after eight years of work in the studio! "It is not I'm late ... It is late for others "- to protect MM At times, it was not for three days, was rude and aggressive, not with me, and for staff who could not object to it. Sometimes she had difficulty with the text ... There were difficulties with itself. But when she took herself in hand, when the "airplay", it was wonderful. And what is it in those moments was a sense of dialogue. She exude an aura of inspired actress. Such an atmosphere, few were able to create. This, perhaps, could only Greta Garbo ... "
SEX SYMBOL
When Marilyn signed its first contract, she exclaimed: "Here is the last term, which I still have to kiss!" Allegorical meaning of these words might have received some confirmation can not be said about their literal meaning. It was hard to ignore Marilyn men. With his girlfriend Shelley Winters Marilyn once, as if in jest, has compiled a list of famous men she would like to seduce. Later, Shelley accidentally found in the house of Marilyn photograph of the scientist. On the reverse side pictures hand Einstein had written: "With respect, love and gratitude." 13 or 12 abortions, more than 20 operations, 7 of voluntary attempts to withdraw from life. Lovers count no one bothered. It's no joke - one shy Norma begins to live like that every night he sleeps with a new man. Sex - this is what hurt me to the quick - she writes in her diary.
This suggests a "girl, able to melt the ice of Alaska, she is actually similar, thus ice, tragically incapable of loving neither herself nor anyone else. That is the main misfortune of her life. She thought that by appearing in school with lipstick and penciled eyebrows, and immediately became known as a fatal seductress, but neither then nor later, as she claimed she did not want someone to kiss or touch. "I never dreamed kept seduce some prince or a movie star. With all their makeup, pomaded lips and developed for his age forms I remained cold as the fossil. But the people I gave the impression of the opposite. She did not dream about anyone, she by no one dreamed.
Joe DiMaggio, American baseball star, became the first real hero-lover Marilyn. He was 37 years old. He had just left the sport, was in great shape and is an excellent complement to Marilyn, who in the mid 50-ies the real star of the screen. Even the appearance in the sale of such sensational calendar in which Marilyn posed nude (the calendar has been placed in difficult times when she absolutely had no money), it seemed only helped her career, prompting her interest from the public. DiMaggio, however, did not want his wife remained a film star after their marriage. DiMaggio was a strong, stubborn, silent and proud man. He hated Hollywood and the public display of sexual virtues of his wife. Trying to get rid of the stereotype of sexual blondes, imposed upon it by the studio, Marilyn left Hollywood and moved to the east coast of the country, where she met a man who asked how she felt, not just her body. This man, the playwright Arthur Miller, was known in the radical literary circles as well as DiMaggio in the world of baseball. They married in 1956. Lena Pepitoun, who worked as a maid in the house Millers, later described as Marilyn spent time in New York in the breaks between filming, rehearsals and sessions of treatment by a psychiatrist. Arthur Miller was in her bedroom. She drank champagne and listened to hours of Frank Sinatra records. Often, it is also a long time chatting on the phone or admiring his reflection in the mirror naked body. Marilyn was absolutely a free man, without any whatsoever complexes. She has never had his underwear (she wore it simply does not and therefore did not need it), she rarely took a bath, love is in bed, wiping her hands on the sheets that had to be replaced often, especially at a time when Marilyn was critical days. After one night of almost continuous sex Marilyn did not allow the maid to replace the sheets, stating: "I want to lie to them all day."
Soon, Marilyn was about two miscarriages, despite the fact that she was made a special operation. She lapsed into a state of deep depression. Films with the participation of producers treated more expensive, because Marilyn was chronically late for shooting or even pluck them, not appearing on the site. Suffering from insomnia, Marilyn started using a great number of potent sedatives. Miller repeatedly saved her from certain death, not giving her poisoned by the drugs because of an accidental overdose. Millers divorced in 1960, the day when John Kennedy became president of the United States.
FROM Yves Montand to his brother KENNEDY
Marilyn was already almost 35 years. She was alone and terrified rapidly approaching, as it seemed to her age. She had to convince myself that it is still young and beautiful. She began her highly publicized romance with the press Yves Montana, with whom he starred in the movie "Let's make love" (1960). Directed by George Cukor for a long time could not find the actor in a leading role in this film with Monroe (1960). All Celebrity - Cary Grant, Rock Hudson, Gregory Peck, Yul Brynner - under one pretext or another refused to participate in the filming. And when the director has already started to panic, came to the rescue of European acquaintance Miller - Yves Montand. Together with his wife Simone Signoret, he arrived in New York concerts.
While working with Yves on set and in Monroe's life was collected, quiet and compliant. In a charming Frenchman, MM found that women are referred to as "the man of my dreams." Filming was "Let's make love" (in Europe it was called "Billionaire") has never been thwarted. She held them in one breath. Marilyn distinguished excellent performance of song and dance numbers.
Romance with Yves developed rapidly. "It's natural - said Monroe - we were made for each other. Arthur needed an intellectual with whom he could talk. Like Simon. And Yves need me. "
However, he stunned her by the fact that soon interrupted their love affair, not wanting to leave his wife Simone Signoret. Marilyn had hoped that their romance will not be just another, in a meaningless affair for both of them. It turned out that it is not. Yves Montand, told her that he would never abandon Simon. What are they with Marilyn just had a great time. These words of his brutally insulted Marilyn. I should also mention the fact that, despite an affair with her husband, Simone Signoret, in his memoirs very warmly of Marilyn - "Mass of people who passed through her life, hammered into her head that she - who is anything but an actress. That without them it can not even pronounce "now it starts to rain." They found a baby Marilyn just a "cute". And as soon as she began to Monroe, they hate it.
As if there was not, after an affair with Yves Montana, she began meeting in filthy hotels with a Danish journalist Hans Iorgenom Lemburnom whose hands, as she claimed caused her to fall asleep, but not excited. Marilyn was having sex with her masseur Ralph Roberts, as well as with his driver. Sometimes in her house at night and stayed DiMaggio, but they still had quite opposing views on the future career and life of Marilyn. Frank Sinatra also became a close friend and lover Monroe. His sexual needs and his care for her so admired Marilyn that she began to dream that they someday may become husband and wife. Then Sinatra introduced her to the Kennedy family.
In 1962, Marilyn once asked his friend Bob Slattsera: "Can you introduce me as the first lady?" Она тайно встречалась с президентом в доме мужа его сестры Питера Лоуфорда в Сайта Монике, в гостинице "Биверли Хиллз" и на борту президентского самолета. Она купила дом в Лос-Анджелесе и опять стала жить в этом городе, поскольку там в любой момент мог "показаться сам Господь Бог" (Джон Кеннеди). Рассказывая своим друзьям о своих сексуальных отношениях с Кеннеди, Мерилин, хихикая, говорила, что поведение президента в постели "очень демократично" и "глубоко проникающе". Мерилин также рассказала, что Кеннеди любил ласкать ее, но отказался однажды убедиться с помощью собственной руки в том, что на ней и в этот раз нет нижнего белья, когда они сидели рядом за столом на каком-то банкете. Кеннеди также стали раздражать постоянные опоздания Мерилин и ее частые телефонные звонки. Был известен факт ее телефонного разговора с первой леди Америки Жаклин Кеннеди, где две дамы в весьма высоких тонах выясняли отношения. Дж.Кеннеди опасался совершенно ненужного ему скандала. На праздновании 45-летия Джона Кеннеди — сквер Гарден в Нью-Йорке — Мерилин оказалась в центре внимания, исполнив на сцене песню "С днем рождения". Примерно через месяц Джон Кеннеди решил закончить свою связь с Монро. Стараясь смягчить удар, он познакомил Мерилин со своим братом Бобби. Ходили слухи, что первый сексуальный контакт между Бобби и Мерилин произошел в машине около дома Лоуфорда. Мерилин опять начала строить планы относительно возможного замужества. Когда она поняла, что ни о каком замужестве не может быть и речи, и после того, как Роберт Кеннеди поменял номер телефона, чтобы она ему больше не звонила, Мерилин даже подумывала о том, чтобы собрать пресс-конференцию и рассказать на весь мир правду о ее отношениях с обоими братьями.
СМЕРТЬ
Была ли смерть Мерилин самоубийством или убийством? Летом 1962 года психическое состояние Мерилин было неустойчивым, а ее настроение быстро менялось от веселья до отчаяния и наоборот. Она опять стала употреблять большое количество всевозможных медицинских препаратов и ежедневно посещать врача-психиатра. Ее сняли с ее последнего фильма за то, что она, практически, не появлялась на съемочной площадке. Мерилин была в отчаянии еще и оттого, что не могла удержать около себя надолго ни одного мужчину. Ее жизнь стала бесцельной и беспорядочной. Весь мир был шокирован известием о том, что в одно воскресное апрельское утро Мерилин Монро была найдена мертвой в своем доме. Причиной смерти стало отравление от употребления слишком большого количества медицинских препаратов. Позже появилась версия о том, что Мерилин стала жертвой подготовленного убийства. Не будем вести следствие, которые к тому же безрезультатно вели многие и многие до нас. Отметим одно. В то время быть на виду, быть звездой, быть идолом было делом весьма опасным. Недаром говорят, что Голливуд убивал своих актеров. Перед Монро и после нее при трагических обстоятельствах погибли молодыми такие ярчайшие звезды, как Джин Харлоу (скончалась от желудочной инфекции в возрасте 26 лет со словами: «Я не хочу жить, оставьте меня в покое!»), Рита Хейворт (сошла с ума, ее заперли в клетку в сумасшедшем доме, она беспрерывно выла), Билли Холлидей (сошла с ума), Грейс Келли (погибла в автокатастрофе), Натали Вуд (утонула возле своей яхты), Джуди Гарланд (покончила с собой), Френсис Фармер (сошла с ума) и так далее.
Жизнь такой яркой и неординарной личности не могла иметь банального финала. Вот, что о ней сказала знаменитая Констанс Кольер. Одна из ведущих шекспировских актрис Англии, Колльер считалась педагогом высочайшего ранга: она занималась только с профессионалами, которые уже стали звездами. В ее доме часто бывали супруги Оливье, чета Лантов. Ее постоянной ученицей была Кэтрин Хепберн. Одри Хепберн и Вивьен Ли, считались ее протеже. Мерилин Монро смогла стать ее ученицей. Поначалу старая дама боялась заниматься с ней, видя в молоденькой блондинке с обнаженных календарей малоподходящую глину для серьезной совместной работы.
Спустя несколько занятий с Монро 75-летняя Колльер была озадачена: со свойственной ей манерой говорить все напрямик, она призналась Грете Гарбо: «О да, тут что-то есть. Она вовсе не актриса, во всяком случае, не в традиционном смысле этого слова. То, что в ней есть, — эта внешность, этот свет, эти вспышки интеллекта — никогда не проявится на сцене. Это так хрупко и эфемерно, что может быть поймано только камерой. Поэзия. Вроде полета колибри. Но если кто подумает, что эта девочка — просто шлюшка, или что-нибудь там еще, то он ненормальный. Она может стать изысканнейшей Офелией. Мне почему-то кажется, что она не состарится. Странно, но у меня есть ощущение, что она умрет молодой. Я надеюсь и молюсь, чтобы она прожила достаточно долго, чтобы освободить этот странный красивый талант, который мечется в ней, словно дух, заточенный в темницу».
Но лучше всего о Монро сказала сама Мерилин : «Моя беда известна: я опоздала родиться. — писала Монро в неоконченной автобиографии “Моя история” — Я чувствую, что не могу включиться в эту бешеную американскую гонку… Надо бежать все быстрее, без всякой разумной цели. Это хорошо когда с тобой все кончено. Не раз я слышала, что с Мэрилин все кончено. Это как бежать по дорожке и увидеть перед собой, наконец, финишную ленту. Ты горд, потому что взял дистанцию. Но надо бежать снова. И ты снова бежишь. Но я знаю, что человек бежит до тех пор, пока он может бежать. Приятно заставлять людей мечтать, приятно мечтать самой, но… в сущности, всему есть конец, который должен приносить облегчение».
***
Она все таки снялась с Кларком Гейблом. В своем последнем фильме «Неприкаянные». Это история прелестной, но несчастной женщины с тонкой душевной организацией, страдающей от внутренних противоречий подобно самой Мерилин. Роль давалась ей очень нелегко. Мерилин поглощала мощные дозы нембутала и по утрам никак не могла растормозиться. Опоздав на съемочную площадку часа на два, она требовала внимания Миллера, пресс-агента, своего педагога Полы Страсберг, двух парикмахерш, гримера, косметички, дублерши, массажиста, секретарши, гардеробщицы, портнихи и горничной, устраивала скандалы, придиралась по мелочам. Однако, все менялось, когда появлялся Кларк Гейбл, человек которого она в своих детских мечтах видела своим отцом. Мерилин сразу же становилась тихой и виноватой девочкой. Она смиренно просила прощения у Гейбла за опоздание, а он нежно обнимал ее, приговаривая: «Ты нисколько не опоздала, солнышко». Она прижималась к его плечу… Господи как же ей было в тот момент хорошо… как хорошо…
