Thanks to the Kennedys I think a lot of people took a lot of things to the grave, one way or another.

I think people always try to imitate people they admire. That's how the fashion industry works. Look at whatever Kate Middleton wears and suddenly everyone wants to buy it. Or makeup artists who have incredible skill can convince the average Jane Doe to invest in hundreds of dollars in dozens of products thinking they can "replicate" a certain look.
Even Marilyn Monroe was "created" and changed from her original "self" and this new glamour image was developed. Howard Hughes was famous for "discovering" beautiful women, but he essentially recreated them. Jean Harlow turned into the original blonde bombshell.
I personally think that Marilyn is an icon, and we'll never see another woman as unique and beautiful as she was. She exuded sensuality as well as fun and playfulness. She's a template, so women will try and use the same makeup, hair colour and style, clothing,…she was such a mystery because I feel like she was always "on" being this image, and I wonder if she ever got to just relax and be herself without expectations, acting, and being used for her sex appeal.

Damaged? Possibly.
She didn't exactly start out with much of a stable foundation.
You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

I don't know how I could have overlooked The Asphalt Jungle.
She was great in that.
Another earlier one that may not be as great, depending on opinion would be Don't Bother To Knock. I personally liked it. She just about broke your heart in that one.

I was reading some article somewhere in my newsfeed a few weeks ago, interviewing salon owners in NYC and they said since the lockdowns, virtually all the blondes disappeared from New York since March!
Lots of bottle blondes. I always loved Marilyn's bit of a widow's peak. She's one woman who seemed to pull off the platinum better than her natural hair colour.
What a loss. Such a beauty, and a national treasure!

Some people pull off the bottle blonde look better than others. For example, I never thought Lisa Kudrow was a natural blonde. But I always assumed Sarah Jessica Parker and Jennifer Aniston we’re natural blondes. However, all three of them are bottle blondes and have naturally brown hair (and quite dark brown hair.)

I always thought Jennifer Aniston was naturally blonde as well. It's strange seeing her with brown hair, because now I think
that
looks fake, lol

Blonde and Black are stark hair colors that can make a person striking. This is why a lot of naturally brunette actresses dye their hair blonde. I don’t think someone like Sarah Jessica Parker would have ever gone as far in Hollywood had she not gone blonde. The blonde makes a huge difference in their looks. Same for Lisa Kudrow.
But someone like Mira Sorvino looks actually better as a brunette.
You couldn’t imagine Anniston as a brunette? Really? She pretty much had brown hair during the first couple seasons of Friends, especially during the Rachel haircut years.
