The diva of yesteryears and Playboy’s favourite back then, Marilyn Monroe left too young? An inspiration for sure, Marilyn Monroe stirred the silver screen with her unique abilities in acting and the sassiest of skills as well.

While her counterparts burned green with jealousy and envy, Marilyn left no stone unturned to make heads turn around and grab a look!
