导读：
Her first big break came when she starred alongside Jane Russell in *Gentlemen Prefer Blondes*. It was a major success and solidified her place among the stars whose handprints are now set in concrete on Sunset Boulevard. In 1954, at age 27, Marilyn married another American icon: baseball legend Joe DiMaggio. Their union seemed like a perfect match. DiMaggio came from a large, traditional family, offering the kind of security she had lacked in childhood. But the reality of fame was far different.
By this point, Marilyn Monroe was essentially a prisoner of her public image. She toured Korea to entertain American troops, and one song she performed seemed to capture everything about her situation. But her heart now belonged to playwright Arthur Miller. Despite personal turmoil, Marilyn continued to work in film, a symbol of glamour and fame. Yet behind the scenes, she was on a difficult and lonely path—from a quiet, obscure teenager to a glamorous but troubled icon, all in under ten years.
She had powerful friends in the highest places. In America, she dated both the President and his brother, Bobby Kennedy. Writers, artists, playwrights, and entertainers all adored her. But amid all this adulation, something darker was unfolding. During the tense political climate of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the FBI began suspecting her of associating with known communists. They opened a file on her, classifying her as a potential subversive.
Then, in August 1962, tragedy struck. Marilyn Monroe died, reportedly from a drug overdose. Her death raised countless questions. For someone who lived so publicly, it was ironic that her end came under such mysterious and shadowy circumstances. Was it murder, accident, or suicide? No one knows for sure. But one truth remains: Marilyn Monroe was a Hollywood giant who brought joy to millions during her short, dazzling life. If there’s anyone to blame for her demise, it may very well be fame itself. 上面就是七彩网帮您整理的关于第三期 第20集 玛丽莲梦露的内容，希望对您有一些帮助！
