Rare Footage Of Marilyn Monroe Entertaining The Troops On Stage In Korea 1954 

it's time to stop. k? Yes, he did speak with her a couple of times. He said that him and all of his army buddies would just drool over Marilyn! They were all so excited to have a beautiful woman there to entertain them and give them a refreshing piece of home in America. She spent a lot of time getting to know the soldiers. She was human just like us. It's hard for people to understand that. She was and still is an idol, but she was not much different than us. :-)

What a wonderful story, thank you for sharing!!!

Newlet Msp lol why the I lie about that? Goodbye

Love that story

Beautiful story!

I am reading Mark Shaw's book now, and it's wonderfully written, with full explanations about Marilyn, JFK, RK and THE remarkable Dorothy Kilgallen!

That’s amazing 🥲

I’d love to see that pic omg

Bella y muy graciosa, nunca cayó en la vulgaridad. Un icono del cine. Jamás será olvidada.

his 90, soooo cute🥰💖💞

Why don’t you post this photo somewhere for all to see it? It’s amazing! It would also be worth of money a lot if you decided to sell it at an auction

I believe it.

Thank you for sharing this intimate episode, as what's mundane but true in life is genuinely precious.. (so rare in showbusiness where all is projected as fantastic)

@@valentina-gracemaclean9736 she didn’t lol but ok

Thank you for sharing. Seems to me it's the sensitive souls that give so much.

blackattackcat pun intended?

Not only she sang her heart out. As I understand from a documentary, the weather was cold. With the dress she wore, it must be chilly for her. Someone had suggested she wore thick clothing, but she said the servicemen would love to see her dressed the way she always did. She went the mile to perform for the troop.

I love Her!!!!!!!

Proto-Porn ..to support the War effort . And WHO started both do you suppose ? Porn & War-mongers..the worst of America ..or of what's infesting America.✌️

On the side view angle you can see the guys in the front row with overcoats on and their arms folded! It was definitely cold.

Actually a friend confessed because she found out she was pregnant at the time but later miscarried, we will never know for sure

marcelaruby84 as i said she stated publicly how good it felt to entertain troops... in fact,she had many photos but ONE particular photo she carried with her everywhere with the caption saying" this is my favorite one"a snapshot of her in Korea!! No need to thank me😉

marcelaruby84 a " freind?" You mean HERESAY LOL

southsyde Sasha you're probably right

southsyde Sasha She was a sweetheart for doing that for the troops!

they managed to record her voice well enough..no muffled noises

Yes , It's like the movie Blonde was made by a group of people who hate Monroe. The most disrespectful movie for a biggest star

i absolutely hate that show. im never watching it. ive only seen clips and decided its probably the most disrespectful thing ive seen.

That stuff doesn't sell, but the drama, drugs and death does.

Remember, Blonde is a work of fiction. Marilyn is a bookmark in history. Neither the book or the movie has much to do about history.

@@hanthartharchan956 Concordo plenamente, parece que o filme foi armado por gente satânica, as mesmas que mataram Marylin , sim continuam a desmoraliza- lá mesmo depois de morta. Porque não focam na grande mulher que ela foi, lutadora , encantadora , talentosa e gentil , amorosa .

That's wonderful!! So, he got to meet her?

Vintage Rose he did!

@@umay1571 Oh wow!!!! That is sooo amazing...to have been able to meet such an icon!!! I bet that was one of the most exciting moments of his life!!! Did he tell you any details?

Wow that's craaazy. Your granddad is lucky! Not a lot of people get to meet such a big legend. In fact she's probably the biggest celebrity to ever walk on this earth because she's still talked about over almost 60 years later after her death. What a sweet soul she was.

My father served with the 25th Infantry Division from the time of the Japanese occupation until well after the Korean armistice. To this very day he speaks about the fearlessness and ferocity that the Turkish forces he knew exhibited. He says they were some of the finest soldiers he ever had the privileged fighting beside.

And also that everyone can vote and we don’t have to worry about catching Polio lol

after the internet, artificial intelligence will be the greatest invention ever, if humans plan to make such a thing, that is.

I think we would probably feel more alive if we lived in the right conditions in the past

@@AmethystEyes fraud in the voting system & now we have to worry about catching Covid

Take it with the pleasure, take it with the pain.

And she was a beauty from head to toe. Say that too. Y era un bellezón desde la cabeza a los pies. Di eso también.

I listen to tape recoding of her and she wasn't soft talking like a whisper..She sounded good ..It must have been her acting voice at times ..

@@michellenolan8626 Yes. She didn't really talk that way.

She’s a great singer! Totally underrated

You're spot on, Angela! Love to see other Marilyn lovers especially the ones who have done the research 💜 I believe she also really sick after this performance as well.

What a woman, her talents are so right. She gave joy to the Soldiers and each of us viewing all Her ❤ ❤ films, videos too. We still love you Marilyn Monroe/Norma Jeane Baker, you did more than twinkle, You were Wonderful 👏 ❤ 💕 💗. We do and did really love you, always.

It is true that February temperatures is very cold like Southern part of Canada. I was grade 2 student of elementary school in Korea just after Korean War ended. At that time our country was among one of poorest country in the world but now South Korea become 20th wealthy country in term of GDP. We Korean are thankful for the support from Western country, particularly from USA and other Western allies, like UK and Canada.

Correction : Korea is now 10th wealthy country in terms of GDP.

YEAH...LOOK @ THE SOLDIERS...BUNDLED WITH EVERYTHING ISSUED!!!!!

Poet Victoria Hunter yes she has all those features but she’s still beautiful

Poet Victoria Hunter no no. She was considered plus sized back then. Sure she smoked and drank, like any other person then. Plus yes she got a bit of work on her face (her nose, but not implants, if u compare, and from what surgeons have said), but her body is natural and curvy, the only thing slim about her is her waist, and that’s just how she was built. It’s natural. Yes she did bleach her hair but with dark or blonde hair both she looked beautiful and iconic. Her IQ was definitely another very beautiful thing about her and for me, her intelligence and personality and sweetness, plus that smile and those eyes, will definitely too my list of things I find beautiful about her. Her body comes after that too though.

Poet Victoria Hunter she is most definitely not my role model but she is still someone I admire and respect because she truly has had a hard life but she still thrived (except her sad later years). everyone and their mother knows she was hooked on drugs before she killed herself - she was depressed. I don’t want to look like her, I’m not white either. Her body is nice for sure though, but I want to be myself. Beyoncé? Ur seriously telling me, a huuuuge fan of Beyoncé (and MJ), that she wouldn’t be respected after death? Honey, she’s respected NOW while she’s alive, why wouldn’t she in death? Also she may have gotten a nose surgery, and who knows what else but it does not take away from her beauty at all, such small things, same w Marilyn. Whitney Houston is also still respected after her death, and same w/ MJ. You could have used a better example because there is definitely a difference between how white and colored people are treated but that doesn’t mean we have to hate white icons. She got work done, but so have so many celebrities NOW, ones people idolize 🙄 all in all, im just saying there’s nothing to hate her about: her beauty, her sweetness, her IQ or her mind. P.S. I love her for her mind too. I wasn’t meaning to come for you, I was meaning to object to the Marilyn slander, but yeah.

Poet Victoria Hunter (heh that’s all you replied to, aight). I’m not even white lmao nor do I like most white people bc I do have a not so good view of them. Ur life was hard but that doesn’t make any other person’s life less hard. She didn’t know her parents, from what I heard, she had a bad foster mother, she was sad for a lot of her life and was constantly emotionally abused by the men in her life when she just wanted to be loved. She was rich and famous yes but she got there herself using her charms, body, grace, singing and dancing. And she was never really happy. can’t hate someone just cuz they got rich with their own merit. She made bad choices but so did any other person. No one is perfect. Anyway, that’s all I have to say. I’ll end it here bye. :)

Poet Victoria Hunter oh shut up

Very very beautiful♥️

Sleeping your way to the top, via Harvey Weinstein ugly old married studio executives in their 70's, in order to get fame and doing that willingly, is not beautiful. Get your head out of the sand about Marilyn, it's all well documented with info available everywhere.

Watch one of her films

not only that despite what people said about her and her troubles she was very sweet and treated everyone fairly i don't know why she used to get so much hate

lmafo

True that😁

LMFAO

Who can blame him what a guy

I think he was waiting for the cue to come closer 😂

She wanted to be a star. But she was destined for tragedy. She was too pretty, too talented, and too nice. She had no idea how high a price they would make her pay for that stardom. The nasty old demons who run Hollywood ate her up like hungry lions. If the studio had left her alone she would probably have enjoyed a long and happy life. They pimped her out and ruined her.

@@FallacyAsPraxis yes💔

@@FallacyAsPraxis увы 😔

@@FallacyAsPraxis I would also add that she had major issues because of a very sad childhood. Her dad abandoned the family & her mom was sent to a mental hospital. Marylin married at 16 but divorced her husband soon after. Hollywood capitalized on her looks and her thirst for ‘wanting to be loved’. Simple as that but so tragic.

@@mona2242 Many blame Hollywood for contributing to her tragedy and they do bear responsibility. However, even if Hollywood was never a part of Marilyn's life, there was no guarantee of Marilyn living a long, happy life as she never appeared to make a choice to confront and deal with her demons - feelings of abandonment and desire to be loved. She appeared not to love herself yet wanted others to love her. She self-medicated with alcohol, drugs and men rather than making the choice to deal with her past trauma. I don't believe that there was no one in her life that could not see the destructive path that she was on and didn't lovingly tell her and try to persuade her away from her soul-destroying lifestyle.

How awesome! My boyfriends grandpa is in his 90s and served as a medic in the Korean War also. Is your grandfather still with you? I should really start asking my bfs grandpa if he saw Marilyn. He met Frank Sinatra a couple times and Lucille Balle once he loves telling stories of his time in the Army, so many great ones

bettiepagebombshell about the show?

Sick 👍🏽

My father was there too. He was a big fan of hers.

Cool lol loes

She is absolutely beautiful! I love her! I just starting loving her! ❤️

Why did you mean 65 years wasn't it 59 years because of you put 1962 + 59 you get 2021

♥️

SHE IS IRREPLACEABLE

She was a deep and intelligent child , this is why..💔💔❤

She was the first hypergamous feemale of her time and many feemales followed her first steps when feminism hit the scene.... Nothing special just ****titution and she capitalized very well, she got with President for money and resources for goodness sake! But lets stop praising these lifestyles of females who use their bodies to get what they want!

Totally agree with all you said, and was thinking the same thing. She did these performances with love (and she was good!) and was titillating but also tasteful.

Yip. They don't make them like this anymore. She was 100% natural to boot!

the word is cheeky :) with class!

Natalie Lina people say she was plus sized because of the way the sizes were back then. she was very slim and in good physical shape. the pictures they use to prove she was plus size was from when she was pregnant

she wasn’t a 10-12, she was a lot smaller than that, sizing just changed from then to mow

T R she was not,you can obviously tell she ain’t that big from looking at this. People believe that because the sizing was different at those times and people think those are the same as today. She was about a size 4

classicarah I'm pretty sure there's a misunderstanding of what I said, but I was referring to her actual clothing thats in collections

She actually was a size zero in today measurements from what a modeling organization she worked with had on her. The times she looked more thick was when she was pregnant which was a few times but she could never carry a baby full term unfortunately:(

she was never considered plus size. when it was revealed her dress size was a 12 people assumed it was a modern 12 but back then it was about a size 4. she was extremely tiny with a 22 inch waist

@@Vexarax I've noticed that too. Beauty standards always come and go in cycles and the curvaceous body type is back in style now, but with more of a focus on ass 😁😁😁 I wonder what will be the next trend for the 2020s.

Like She was the first white woman with hips LOL

Because nowadays plus size means morbidly obese.

Real men like women with some curves, not looking like someone just liberated by the Allies.

So true

shes iconic ............

*she was a real person

Exactly my thoughts while I was watching this..

same 😹

+Aubrey Caraballo Well said, that was such an eloquent and beautiful statement.

+Mike Hudson thank you

Aubrey Caraballo lol that a over statement real talent is Mariah

Missy T Whitney was not better singer the other bitch only had nice whistles but she couldn’t control them Like Mariah can , Mariah is better musician then Whitney, whitney was just cover singer , Mariah MADE music . Whitney was horrible mother and killed her self leaving her child to kill her self . Whitney ruined her self and her voice . Mariah is classily and better

Missy T lol Whitney voice in 2000s was HORRID their video of the news even saying why is she having a farewell concert when she sounds how she sounds , she was younger than Mariah too . Whitney was just cover singer her biggest hit is a cover song . Mariah has Christmas classic she wrote that will live past Whitney and everyone else

How she was destroyed and when?

@@MaknaeYujinNoona she wasn’t destroyed, she was diminished by mainstream society to her looks while she was also very intelligent. However, it is Hollywood

She was drunk as fuck, un profesional, un prepared, another Kardashian

@@Musicienne-DAB1995 and lust

@@fionahamilton7231 She was abused all her life, especially by men. She killed herself feeling unloved, she was only 36. Men's lust is temporary and not deep, they wanted to own her, possess her but not love her.

@@lunalu552 Sorry, she didn't kill herself.

Lou S the crowd were troops. In a time of war and after being trained to kill, I’m pretty certain the majority of those men (that used to think like that) changed their way of thinking. Simply not caring about race anymore after believing any day could be their last.

I was hoping someone commented on this.

Rain Drifter That's Extremely Exaggerated

Antoinette Jolie - Madame Sade Oh, someone sounds a wee bit jealous. I've read your other comments on here. You should watch yourself before you turn into a bitter, unwanted spinster. Or has that happened already?

The Book of Joshua How is That Jealous? You're the Delusional Stan

The Book of Joshua Any Woman Can Put on Pounds of MakeUp & Short Clothes & Make a Crowd Go Crazy. I Would Know. I've Worked in Club/Entertainment Industry For Years. Maybe You Also Didn't Watch Her Interviews on How it Took Her Hours to Get Ready to Become 'Marilyn' or How Ppl Did Not Recognize Her at All When She Went Out in Public 🤷🏽‍♀️ ..That's What I'm Jealous of? 😆 By the Way, I'm Only Watching This Video Because They Mention it in a Book I'm Reading.

Antoinette Jolie - Madame Sade Thanks for your comment... and confirming what I said. You've worked in the entertainment business for years... and you've gotten absolutely nowhere. So you see someone as dazzling as Marilyn and you're probably sitting there wondering how this person with "too much make up and big thighs" made it and you haven't, (as I'm sure you're thinking, judging on your comments). Well listen lady, being a star isn't just about looks; it's about charisma and the way you connect with people. And the few comments I've read from you REEK of bitterness and jealousy. And I don't know why women always cut each other like that. You gals are always claiming men are the sexist ones. But, really, you lot don't have each others backs at all. Particularly if the target is attractive. I've seen this too many times. I wasn't trying to offend you, really. But you absolutely fall into the category of women who see a successful woman and wonder why it isn't you. You WISH you could have this effect on people like Marilyn did - there you are night after night working in clubs / on stage / whatever / trying to make your dreams come true. But you are still in the waiting line. My advice? Enjoy those that can, like Marilyn. And be happy with what you've got. I'm sure you're a nice person. You need to reconnect to that part of yourself and appreciate other women's talents rather than leaving catty remarks on RU-vid, (body shaming??) I get the feeling you're more than that. Take care.

@@kronkspapi4245 No Lana is beautiful, but Mairlyn created her image no producer contributed to her career. She know what both man and women wanted in a star.

Her beauty is different, just like other woman. I guess that’s why she is so liked because she like other woman, has a different aura that everyone prefer. I mean it’s on the person preference on what they like.
