I am frequently haunted by the fact that Norma jeane was sexualized from the moment she was known, she never was taken seriously, they bombarded her with photos, some even flew over her house with a helicopter just too sour on her. She said in an interview “I’m not just generally happy, if I’m generally anything, I’m generally miserable”

To many people she wasn’t a person in fact a photographer, Leon shamroy, saw her and the first thing he said was “sex on a piece of film” and since then she was a sex symbol. A colleague of hers remembers walking down the street and no one notice Norma Jeane and she asked, “do you want to see me become her?” her colleague said yes and suddenly she just turned it on and everyone was asking for a picture. Norma lived an unstable life with her mom so much of her life was spent through foster homes, when she was sixteen she married Joe DiMaggio as a way to escape.

Once she died she left all of her things to her father figure including the rights to advertising and through his life she was only advertised once for a song ad. Once he died he left all his and Norma’s things to his wife. His wife let poodle use her for advertising like Pepsi, Sony, etc. She auctioned off her personal items, even a small piano that Norma Jeanne’s mother gave her, that Norma adored. All auctioned off to strangers who never knew her, we all see her the blonde wig, Ben Lyon suggested the stage name because it reminded him of Marilyn Miller, actress who died tragically early.

The grossest part is that when she was buried her ex husband asked to be buried face down and with his case on top of hers. She was never buried as Norma Jeane, instead Marilyn Monroe.

Norma Jeane Baker was swallowed up by Hollywood, by the paparazzi, and by every man who laid eyes on her but she was not a symbol she was a person who had feelings and she wanted to be more than just her body. Norma Jean Baker hasn’t had rest since the day she died nor has she ever truly rested during the time of her life
