Honestly so true. The closest anyone comes is Queenie's character from Harry Potter's Fantastic Beasts series. And even then, the actress is nothing like her.
marush yeah I know all that.. I meant everything about her.. her personality too. Not the fake persona..she created that dumb blonde character. There’s just something about her that I don’t see in other people. Personal opinion.
marush I’ve seen all of these pictures. I’ve been a fan since I was 14. I’ve seen the pictures before her surgeries too. I’m only comparing her to modern actresses today. Not every woman on the planet. Again it’s my personal opinion.
Marilyn was so terrified to make this appearance. It was live on television, so there could be no re-takes. She always strove for perfection and was afraid to make any mistakes. She was just so lovely in this appearance and at this time of her life.
@@Missditabomb In the video jack said she’s 25 at 3:35 and I don’t know why if she was 27, do you know why? That’s why I was wondering if she lied about her age 🥺
The truth of Marilyn's sharp and inquisitive intellect is become more widely recognized, but even in a clip like this, you can hardly miss it. Dumb people do not have comedic timing like Marilyn. She dazzles in all ways.
Exactly, Reginald. You have to be very smart to be able to do a parody of yourself, and yet it’s still her unique sexually-charged charm - and the comedic timing with her priceless facial expressions, yes, it takes real intellect and savvy! I love that Marilyn - one the one hand, we know out of any man’s reach - always allowed us to think she’d like us! I love when she pulls Benny in by both lapels- like she’s in charge! It’s like- okay, Jack, you just got more woman then you bargained for! lol
She was so classy, beautiful, smart, one of her own kind, there is no one could even come close to her. Someone you can die for. She was perfect in many ways. She is a miracle and timeless.
I love watching the characters played by Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn is so unique and original at the same time. Marilyn will always be in my heart. God bless her beautiful and sensitive soul.
She is just so heartbreaking sweet and endearing in this. I bet if you were a man and Marilyn Monroe looked at you with those big blue eyes it would make your knees weak. How could a woman be so beautiful?
She's probably the only woman ever that could make men literally faint. She had a power in that beauty that could not only bring world peace but destroy the world as well. Unearthly beautiful she was.
@@annebrookes5779 I'm 51 and just getting to know of MM , who are these other women you speak of? I think in this era there aren't many, I've seen pics of today's starlets w/o make-up and while still pretty they just didn't have that "GOTCHA"!!!! about their appearance.
@@johnpetty3574 True! There are videos on youtube that show Marilyn with no make up - she was exquisite. Without makeup she also had an innocent, playful, girl-next-door look. Breaks my heart that she suffered so much in life.
Lovely piece of fun. Marilyn stayed in character the whole time, sang live and was unbelievably beautiful. The dress she wore is the dress she wore to the premiere of How To Marry A Millionaire
She played the character of MM so well that people believed it was her. She was a fantastic comedic actress, just starting her dramatic career when she did the Misfits (1961). And then she died and never got to live out her full potential.
She was a genius.She knew her craft . 10 years of study and work .Then you are like a genius .Captivating .The greatest actor ,entertainer ... of all time .Stunning .
✔That look on Bennys face is priceless. I've watched All his movies, tv shows , guest appearances, tv specials. I never saw a look like that on his face when M.M. was singing to him. LOL He was in heaven. 💞💕😁 She was amazing.
To me Marilyn was never more beautiful than in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" and I'm do glad she did this live show just right after it! She was at her peak here! Do you guys think she sang "Bye, Bye Baby" live here?! She's sounded amazing!
There was no re-take in this live show and I won't be surprise she did not have acting coach next to her signaling their approval or disapproval, yet she looked more natural and just as funny here than she did in some of her movies.
So talented, a great comedic actress, beautiful, charming and glamorous, with a sweet singing voice. She was a supernova, i wish she had more truly supportive people in her life, not the bunch of jealous energy vampires and users she seems to have found often in her path, she was perfection and deserved better
Marilyn's essence transcends eras and time, like a great beauty who launched a thousand ships, the images of her are plentiful and eternally gorgeous x
Marilyn était une merveilleuse actrice, sensible ,féminine et avait une soif de vivre .....C'était une icône qui malgré une enfance perturbée elle s'est accomplit dans son rêve.Elle nous a quittée trop jeune ,son passage n'aura durée que le temps que vive les roses mais elle demeure et reste la seule et unique Marilyn.Elle est intemporelle.Merci du partage
anyone that says that Marilyn didn't pay her dues and can't act or sing is just out of their minds.... Shes been taught by the best there is in Hollywood. Shes a star . hands down comic !! Her drama acting and singing is stellar. Marilyn Monroe was born & died in Hollywood. It was her town. Outstanding singer actress.
Thank you for posting this, I’ve never seen it! Marilyn is sizzling and sexy 🔥 and Jack is the perfect foil - those looks at the audience get me every time! It’s hysterical! This is such a classic! Marilyn is the ONLY one who can be so alluring and sumptuous with every breath, and her breathless delivery is so sexually charged and yet she’s funny doing a good hearted parody of herself as the audience simultaneously laughs at Benny, and falls in love with Marilyn with every expression! God, she’s every man’s dream girl ! ❤️ At least in my day!
Damn no wonder men was chasing her!!! Look how gorgeous she is.. and the way she stares at them.. I’m melting just looking at her lol her voice is smoothing. I can watch her and hear her all day
She had such an awful childhood and became the most famous woman in history. She was so incredibly talented and the most beautiful woman who ever existed. She will always be relevant and our perception of her will never change because we never saw her grow old. She's the most fascinating woman who ever graced this world.
Its amazing how fragile and sweet you can tell she is but at the same time knows EXACTLY what to do to grab everyones attention. Yet she was always so unsure of herself. ;~;
God damn she was amazing and yet she thought so little of herself... goes to show how our inner thoughts and what ppl close to us say to us, about us, can wreak havoc on our self-esteem and how we see ourselves. She was absolute perfection but saw herself as a fraud, as if she had somejow convinced ppl she was an actor and shed be found out at any minute when she was an amazing actress who more than deserved her name in lights. It kills me that she never saw herself in true light. I will never believe she killed herself purposely or accidentally. Her death was due to someone else and its heart breaking that only she and a few ppl truly know what happen that night.
I believe she was killed, too, but even if she did kill herself, that doesn't make her a bad person. She was horrible depressed and troubled, poor woman. She had the most horrible childhood.
The gag is similar to a narration George Jessel did on a radio episode supposedly dramatizing Jack's life: "In his youth, Jack had a younger sister named Florence. Today, he has an older sister named Florence."
It may sound odd but when she sings "Bye, bye baby" on this tv show, it is almost like she is saying goodbye to us (bc she would die young) but also reassuring us she would be back.
Norma Talmadge was one of the biggest movie stars of the 1920s. Many baby girls were named after her. Norma's younger sisters, Constance and Natalie,were also film actresses. In fact, Natalie was once married to Buster Keaton.
I watched the Jayne Mansfield 1963 version first. Then I found this version. Jayne was fantastic! But there’s no one like Marilyn Monroe. Just stunning, and you can’t take your eyes off her the entire time. ❤️
this is a great example of marilyn's comedic timing and overall acting ability. she even slipped in a 'dumb blonde' joke that seemed to be missed by everyone at the end. 'cinnamon scope'
One of Jack's character traits, in addition to his "cheapness", "lousy violin playing" and his supposed age of "39", was that he also considered himself a "ladies' man". That's demonstrated here- but only in a FANTASY could he ever get "that close" to Marilyn Monroe! He later said her performance in this sketch was "wonderful"...
She adored Jack Benny. He was 33 years older than her and happily married, but if he were single, I think she would have dated him. He was funny and the most popular man on the planet.
I am her fan from India ,I find her very fascinating❤️ someone who belongs to a different world ,she looks like a Doll ,I m so very much inspired by her dat I have dyed my hair to blonde ,I have seen all of her movies for more than 50 times atleast ,I wish if I had seen her once , if she was alive she would have been of my grandmother's age somewhere around 80 I guess ❤️ God has been so unfair , I have seen so many videos of her ,her few interviews she seemed to be so natural, calm ,good ,softspoken ,sorted not even once I found her arrogant , throwing attitude or tantrums ,she greeted fans so nicely always laughing ,smiling, cheering , doing her things so well but wat happened? wat happened on that fatal black night wen she left us ☹️
I agree. I never really how talented of a comedic actress Marilyn was until I saw the Jayne Mansfield version of this sketch. It doesn't even come close to this one.

I don’t care what people say about who is the “modern Marilyn” there is no one like this woman.
Honestly so true. The closest anyone comes is Queenie's character from Harry Potter's Fantastic Beasts series. And even then, the actress is nothing like her.
Kiera Haggarty I haven’t seen that yet, But I’m going to soon!
There was only one Marilyn .All the rest who came after are fakers

she is like a dream, a fantasy, like a Disney princess, a beauty symbol...forever.
her first husband said she was a real Person. i understand that and what he meant.
3:56 ...and into the song: wow that is sexy.
She was only 27 in this sketch. Amazing talent and magnetism for one so young.
This is hilarious, how could anyone say that she wasn’t great at acting, she is an amazing comic actress
and she could really sing.
Seems like the problems came later.
Who ever said that?
@@ronniebishop2496 dumb critics from her time didn’t take her seriously despite her outstanding talent :(
They were jealous. When you start laughing in the first few seconds watching her, it shows how convincing she was. She was great in Niagara.
Marilyn was so terrified to make this appearance. It was live on television, so there could be no re-takes. She always strove for perfection and was afraid to make any mistakes. She was just so lovely in this appearance and at this time of her life.
The more I see of her, the more I realize how amazing she was.
She was not 25, if this was aired in September 1953 then she was 27, did she lie about her age back then?
My beautiful angel marilyn ❤️

It was LIVE and they did not use cue cards then. I know somebody who did a Benny at that time.
Her singing voice is wonderful!! ♥️
And also when she speaks
She had golden vocal cords
She played the character of MM so well that people believed it was her. She was a fantastic comedic actress, just starting her dramatic career when she did the Misfits (1961). And then she died and never got to live out her full potential.
I am so jealous of Jack Benny. She was so damn beautiful. Jesus, what a beauty.
Gorgeous lady in any era
Yes
@marush :
You're a fake nasty female.
Her beauty is magnificent in its sheer flawlessness!
That is called cosmetics and hair stylists. :)
@@fairybitsEnvy and jealousy is a terrible thing!! ;-)
@@fairybits surgaries too but no matter what she was beautiful other woman does more crub and they are not pretty no where near as Marilyn's beauty
@@fairybits TH-cam is full of videos of Marilyn with no make-up; her hair messy and undone. She was more innocent looking, but just as stunning.

Simpathy, sense of humor, intelligence, sweetness, magnetism, sensuality
trasgression and sadness... This is Marilyn Monroe
The most beautiful woman there was and will ever be. 💗
There was no re-take in this live show and I won't be surprise she did not have acting coach next to her signaling their approval or disapproval, yet she looked more natural and just as funny here than she did in some of her movies.
This is the Natasha Lytess era, so probably yes.

I like how she smiles while grabbing Jack's hand, after her punchline and Jack's usual response.
Love Marilyn 😍
So damn beautiful. Mr. Benny was one lucky SOB.
Marilyn Monro was so Beautiful
she could play very funny...🙂
This was hilarious 😆 I love this type of comedy lol it was like a tiny movie clip
Huge sense of humor and she's so pretty, gorgeous i mean.
and look, Benny took exactly the same scene with Jayne Mansfield ......after years ! tasteless !!! Marilyn was the Ultimate !!! R I P dear Marilyn

An accidental overdose. She had a pharmacy in her home with prescriptions from multiple doctors.
you got that fucking right.
@@charleshousman3570 Sadly true.

Definitely!!! she was born in 26, my Mom's name is Norma Jean..she was born in 29..very popular name then I suppose.

Hollywood does not have performers like them anymore. Sadly.
This is hilarious she’s so good at acting 😂😂

Sexiest woman ever known. Such grace and sweetness. I am speechless
Other clips where she is doing comedy, I genuinely laugh out loud. Comedy is not so easy.
What a lucky man
her studio tried to replace her just from the beginning, even before she peaked her fame in 1953
When he says “goodbye Marilyn” the words just have a different meaning now 😢
"Well in my picture, they could have taken out all of the seats!"
Brilliant. Jack Benny at his best.
She was actually a great comedian!!!
She's adorable. Especially here.
She was just amazing! So brilliant.
Marilyn Monroe charismatic Eternal Beauty and intelligent woman! Nobody can REPLACE Marilyn Monroe 💔💔💔
She is so great here and playing so well off of Jack's many comedic pauses is not easy
She was just so lovely! Lovely, lovely, lovely...
this is a great example of marilyn's comedic timing and overall acting ability. she even slipped in a 'dumb blonde' joke that seemed to be missed by everyone at the end. 'cinnamon scope'
Funny she was the complete opposite of this character. She was a BIG NERD. Love her very much.
Her comedic timing was incredible. I wish she saw it . 💜💜
I don’t know what it is, but I can’t think of anyone through history more beautiful than Marilyn Monroe.
@NPC 1337 nope

She adored Jack Benny. He was 33 years older than her and happily married, but if he were single, I think she would have dated him. He was funny and the most popular man on the planet.
She’s so cute and funny in this!
For the duration of that brief, lighthearted sketch, Jack Benny was the luckiest man in the world.
Really funny!.Thanks.J B is so hopelessly unsuited to M M 's stunning presence,good looks & allure to be her leading man.
She IS unique
She articulated love effortlessly with the eyes of Aphrodite. A true vixen of her time who charmed many hearts. 🎟
An example of Jack’s genius.
We miss you sweet girl
Definitely a plug for the movie. I bet this made a stir!
Marilyn was perfection
Still a very nice video, thank you very much !!
wonderful!
je suis impressionnée par son jeux d'acteurs qu'elle retiend, elle a un énorme potentiel qui aurait pu être mis en valeur en France à la même époque.
I am her fan from India ,I find her very fascinating❤️ someone who belongs to a different world ,she looks like a Doll ,I m so very much inspired by her dat I have dyed my hair to blonde ,I have seen all of her movies for more than 50 times atleast ,I wish if I had seen her once , if she was alive she would have been of my grandmother's age somewhere around 80 I guess ❤️ God has been so unfair , I have seen so many videos of her ,her few interviews she seemed to be so natural, calm ,good ,softspoken ,sorted not even once I found her arrogant , throwing attitude or tantrums ,she greeted fans so nicely always laughing ,smiling, cheering , doing her things so well but wat happened? wat happened on that fatal black night wen she left us ☹️
You can't take your eyes off of her.
If you compare MM's performance here with Mansfield's in the same sketch, Monroe I think is clearly better. Much more vitality and overdone style.
I agree. I never really how talented of a comedic actress Marilyn was until I saw the Jayne Mansfield version of this sketch. It doesn't even come close to this one.
That's why Billy Wilder (Some like it hot) denied Mansfield for the role and said she was good for truckers ;)
