I am obsessed with marilyn monroe

About three years ago, I started really getting into Marilyn Monroe. I began to collect her films, her posters, her memorabilia, and now I almost feel as if she and I are simpatico. Like her, I have a tendency to hide behind who others think I am rather than just let the real me shine through. As a result, I consider her almost sympathetic character. There's something about her appearance and her knack for comedic timing that really strike me as well. I would go as far as to say that I love her. Does anyone feel this way about Marilyn or any other old Hollywood celebrity?

    Personally, I'm in love with the band "The Arctic Monkeys" and Lily Allen aswell. It's 100% normal to have thoughts and desires either sexually or just non-sexually, ex. To meet and talk with Marilyn Monroe would be a dream for you. It's quite normal to love a celebrity to near death (don't take that literally please) and to want to know everything to do and about them.

    I am obsessed with Marilyn too. It started... 4 years ago, I believe. Of course, at first I was really into it, reading everything about her, watching her movies continuously, collecting dvd's, books, cd's etc. Now I am more toned down, maybe because I already know so much about her and have so many things spread around my room, I don't have that strong curiosity anymore. Still, I do love her, I am mesmerized by her beauty and amazed by her personality (perhaps because it's so different from mine).
    I'm happy to see someone so interested in Marilyn. It's pretty rare, as I've learnt over the years.
    (I also believe we both share a deep hatred when it comes to Arthur Miller - just saying)

    Sometimes I feel like that, but not Marilyn. I actually feel like that about the singer Neko Case. Just so happens that we're opposite genders. it's not romantic at all, but I just share a very similar story with her, and her music just blows everything out of the water in my opinion. Everyone's got a hero. That's pretty normal. Simpatico is something we seek. Just don't get creepy about it, and don't put it out of your mind that you might feel the same with someone you could ACTUALLY MEET.

    I read that Marilyn Monroe was approached by a preacher and he said that Jesus sent him to her to save her, and she replied "I don't need your Jesus" soon after that she overdosed... I don't know what to think about that. All i know is your not supposed to Mock God. She was very pretty tho...

      That's just one theory. I don't think anyone knows for sure what really happened in the events leading up to her death.
