How did Hollywood create a myth around Marilyn Monroe?

Hollywood turned Marilyn Monroe into a superhero using stories and pictures, just like how your favorite cartoon makes their hero look cool and powerful.

Imagine you're watching a show where your favorite character always wins, even when things get tough. That's what Hollywood did with Marilyn. They showed her in shiny clothes, smiling brightly, and acting happy, like she was never sad or tired. It was as if she had a superpower to stay beautiful no matter what happened.

But here’s the fun part: behind the scenes, it wasn’t always easy. Just like how your favorite cartoon character might be crying in their room after a big fight, Marilyn sometimes felt lonely or worried. Hollywood used cameras and lights, tools that make things look perfect, to hide those feelings and show only the best parts.

So, it was like making a dream come true, but with some help from the camera!
