Monroe was ahead of her time in many ways and was keen on practicing yoga. She even took lessons from Swedish-Russian Bollywood film star Indra Devi who also taught Greta Garbo and Gloria Swanson.
Monroe used a hormone cream to whiten her skin, and one of the side effects was the growth of a blonde peach fuzz on her face. She didn’t mind this however, as she believed it gave her face a soft glow on screen. This was because of the quality of the film and cameras back then, so the fuzz probably helped to soften her features.

It was a known fact that Monroe enjoyed being in her birthday suit and was notorious for wandering around all of the costume assistants, make-up artists, and hairdressers completely naked.
Although Monroe had a considerable fortune, she only ever owned one property – in Brentwood, California, where she was found dead. This property has recently come back on the market, in April 2017, with an asking price of $6,900,000.
Just before her death in 1962, Monroe was in the process of reading two books: Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird, and Leo Rosten’s Captain Newman MD, which was actually based on the life of Monroe’s psychiatrist, Ralph Greenson.
