When I was a child I admired Marilyn Monroe 's beauty, unsure of who she was, I was impressed by her glamour. I vividly remember Monroe 's beautiful face features, painted in many frames, clothing and accessories of many of the stores where I would go. She always showed confidence with her half-opened red rose lips and her alluring looks. As I grew older, I learned that Marilyn Monroe was an actress, model and one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s. Later I learned that the Hollywood celebrity Marilyn Monroe was a unique artist. Who had a difficult childhood, suffered from drug problems, love conflicts, and was cruelly criticized by foolish people. More than 50 years after her death, Marilyn Monroe is hailed as a positive role model by many women today. Monroe’s seductive eyes, half-open lips and famous “quotes” clutter Twitter, Pinterest and even people’s bodies.

Her legend has summoned many different images, as some women perceive her as a positive role model others distinguish her as the worst role model. But what encourages her followers to show endless love to the artist? And why do others recognize her a sex symbol and nothing else? Is she an appropriate role model for our juvenile today or is she the worst?
