I know it seems silly, but seeing Marilyn hold that baby doll, and knowing how much she wanted a baby, she just looked like a natural. she would have been a great mother, and it's a shame she had endometriosis when there wasn't much for treatment back then.
Hm... Every baby does need a daddy tbh... 😢😢 Aww man, I feel so bad... Ik I never want to experience that, but I could imagine what it feels like to not to become a parent when they want one.
She tried to contact her real father, her mother had confided to her who he was. Marilyn's mother worked at a film editing studio & had a brief affair with a man who worked there, she kept his picture & the resemblance is there. Her father didn't want to respond to Marilyn's overtures to meet, he was afraid apparently what his wife & family would think. Perhaps the timeline of the affair ran parallel with him being married, I don't know.. what I read didn't explain that closely. But yes, children need their parents involved or there's an emptiness, a type of void that can never be fully filled, or cured of the longing to make oneself whole. To unfortunate for her father not to have embraced a relationship with his daughter..she was a tribute to any man to be a child of his. It seemed almost as if Fate wanted to make up to herself the loss of mostly an ordinary experience we all have & give her splendor instead. Her fans, who then & still now love her would of settled for her happiness, she really deserved that after making so many others happy ..a joy to watch her entertain. It's true only the good die young.
@@kingdomfreedom8323 No. It is not at all the case that the good do pass away young. Only the Gods art apparently Good. Those that do follow the Gods do come secondarily. Additionally I hath known outstanding people that hath passed away - rather fortunately so - at a ripe healthy deservedly elderly age. The Wise do live upon the Earth unto an Elderly age, as doth Religion make rather clear. Elderly age is rather a sign of Wisdom. A True Survivor doth oft live on unto an Elderly age upon the current Earth. The Strong as such do Survive.

WICKED!! if she kept singing like that through out her career, she could have made it big as a singer alone. every note, Marilyn perfect. Way ahead of her time.
Take out those stupid baby dolls and it would have been perfect. Her voice coach told her that she really couldn't sing but she gave the impression she could because she was on pitch and she knew how to use inflection. He was always making her feel inferior from what I've read. She wanted to marry him but he told her she wouldn't make a good mom for his kids. Can you imagine how that made her feel? Anyway, he wasn't much himself if he couldn't see the value and talent in her voice; that when using it all as far as what she did have, it turned into something amazing. Norma Jean as Marilyn, a true and absolute talent. For those who don't get it, I almost feel for them, those who don't get MM are really missing out. She endures and that says it all.
+Teresa Gib Wow. Where did you read this? Not doubting you, but I always heard that Marilyn Monroe's main vocal coach was jazz musician Phil Moore, a black man, who also coached Dorothy Dandridge and Ava Gardner. Marrying him would have completely sunk Monroe's career at that time, and she had to know that. If it wasn't Phil Moore, then who was this voice coach?
I really prefer the way she's singing here than how she sang in many of her other musicals - It's beautiful! Sounds much more powerful and in control :)
it's because marilyn have insomnia it makes her harder to breath with super tight corsett. You can understand about this if you watch the body of marilyn monroe, here, on youtube. Of course she is hard to hit a few notes perfectly. This is happened 12 years before the misfits i guess....
Here she is singing as Marilyn, in many of her movies she was singing as she put it herself, the "stereotypical dumb blonde". The companies and people that were in charge of her never let her be herself, even off the screen she was acting. A very beautiful woman both in looks and personality whom was used and then thrown away like a piece of gum. She will however be a timeless legend and she deserves to be just that.
@@di7209 "The women in the second half are singing and playing with baby dolls." I realize that. I was merely attempting to be funny by pretending that the girls were so pretty, I didn't notice the baby dolls. Thanks anyway for caring enough to explain it to me.
@@emmanuelbravo6852 Marni Nixon was 18 years old when this film was shot, and while she had sung in a movie soundtrack chorus at least once before this, I don't believe her dubbing career had really started yet. I think this sounds like Marilyn's real voice
Marilyn was looked at as a sex symbol. But I see and will always see her as a beautiful woman who went through so much and deserved better. I barley know anything about her and haven't been a fan for that long but I still love her. 💕
she is one underrated history symbol. she made history and was ahead of her times with her fashion sense and acting, but people only acknowledged her for her looks and it's so sad. until now people still won't let her soul rest even though she's already dead.
She wasn´t "herself" here just yet. She gave off the Rita Hayworth vibe more than her own vibe. Funny how apparently they tried to make her somebody else before realizing that letting her be herself would be the best thing that could happen to her as a star - and their box office as well.
I’m not sure she was ever able to fully be herself. Everyone wanted to poke and prod and mood her. Everyone wanted their slice of the pie. I appreciate her. I like her. I have a great deal of empathy for her. I think it’s toxic that so many people find her aspirational & wish to emulate her.
Actually I also thought the same that it had “Put the Blame on Mame” vibes, but then I remembered that Rita Hayworth was actually dubbed by Anita Ellis.
I watched a documentary on Marilyn Monroe's life and she was never ever allowed to fully be herself,she wanted to do so many things but was always shoved around and disregarded
@@eqfs9455 Dude, yes, you're incredibly insightful! I thought I was the only one who thought this. I admire her work as a beauty model, for she certainly was striking but part of her instabilities happened because she was forced to repress herself in order to become Marilyn Monroe. People forget Marilyn Monroe really was a character or an alter ego of sorts. That's part of why she had issues retaining a husband and friends. Men went in for Marilyn and she thinking she could trust them, allowed Norma Jean out. Men couldn't handle or wanted the realities of Norma Jean. She had too much baggage they'd say I imagine. And women who probably wanted friendship wanted to relate to Norma Jean but couldn't handle the negative, seedy attention she would get as part of Marilyn. Quite sad really. If anything Marilyn should be a warning to all women AND men, to be more than a pretty face and to control your destiny. If you end up depending on others for survival threaten the wrong crowd you'll end up like her. Living a short, miserable life with nothing to show for it but a few pretty pictures.
it was cold outside of Tiffanys I was shivering in the storm I walked in and asked a gentleman Could I plea-ease keep warm He asked me how come a baby doll Has no comfy place to go So I told that kindly gentleman My tale of woe Every baby needs a da-da-daddy To keep her worry free Every baby needs a da-da-daddy But where's the one for me Rich or poor I don't care who If he hasn't got a million then a half will do Every baby needs a da-da-daddy Could my da-daddy be you Every baby needs a da-da-daddy With silver in his hair Every baby needs a da-da-daddy Who has some gold to spare Some sweet softy who enjoys Bringin' home his baby little diamond toys, oh ho! Every baby needs a da-da-daddy Could my da-daddy be you Every baby needs a da-da-daddy In case she runs aground Every baby needs a da-da-daddy To keep her safe and sound Yes we feel just like Red Ridin' Hood Cause the wolves are awful hungry in our neighbourhood Oh every baby needs a da-da-daddy Could my da-daddy be you Could my da-daddy be you
I like watching Marilyn Monroe sing and dance here but am I the only one who thinks this is really weird and creepy? How did they go from a Rita Hayworth, Gilda-esque dance number about sugar daddys to creepy dancing baby dolls? And the guys are turned on by it. Whoa...
Trey Stephens Arthur Miller, John and Bobby Kennedy, and the Rat Pack, among others. She may have been killed by the Deep State for threatening to reveal her affairs with the Kennedys.
The tongue in cheek character of the song is so characteristic of the era - you see a hint of what was to come in her most famous performance in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes of Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend. Great performer, naturally gifted and timeless music.
Early days for Marilyn. She looks so young. Well she is only 22 years old here. So gorgeous and her voice is very pleasant. A lot more talented than the movie people liked to make out. Sings, dances, acts and what a beauty. She had the whole package. What a shame she wasn't more confident and had felt really good about herself.
Marilyn showed so much potential and range in this and 'Don't Bother to knock'. Then she was pigeonholed. She's mesmerized me since childhood. The Best! ❤
@@emmanuelbravo6852It is her voice alright. In this movie she wasn't dubbed. In most of her movies she wasn't dubbed. Only if the song had really high notes like the "No no nos" in Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend. People assume she didn't have that rich tone because in several movies she had to talk in a breathy baby talk voice

Deeper implication of the song is that Marilyn Monroe's childhood had a mother to upbring her for a while, but father... well it was a mystery then. Have to say that she had a humourous way of expressing her childhood grief in such a sexually teasing manner. ARTIST LEVEL 1000000000000000000000000000000000
I remember being a kid listening to this song, my mom always watched Monroe or Presley movies she just was a big fan. And with my own troubled relationship with both my mother and father, this stuck with me through the years. I guess you can say before I was married to my now the one I call "Daddy", I was looking for one smh daddy issues oh what it does to a person
I wish she had kept that singing voice throughout her career. She was the total package, but her life ended too soon due to her lack of confidence and how she was misunderstood, abuser and exploited by those around her.
this is my favourite singing voice of hers. at the peak of her career, she was forced to have that baby squeak talking voice and a husky one for sexy effect whenever she's singing. of course, that isn't how Marilyn would naturally sing, so sometimes someone who could register a note while still sounding like 50's Marilyn would have to fill in (listen to Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend, you'll hear some parts of it) 1940s Marilyn singing is much more in control and beautiful
The "Queen Of The Silver Screen," Marilyn Monroe met fame and fortune, but true love she never met. Very sad, I have visited Marilyn Monroe's tomb at the Westwood Cemetery in LA several times, and I even brought 🌹 roses.
everyone is saying this is about ddlg or some kinda kink, well actually no. its about how every woman needs a man to protect her and keep her feel safe and worry-free. "daddy" back then would mean man, and "mama" would mean woman.
