10 Celebrities Who Started As Models

N6. Marilyn Monroe

When it comes to Marilyn Monroe as a model, everyone knows a thing or two.

Born as Norma Jeane Mortenson, Marilyn had grown up most of her life in foster homes. But years later, she changed her name into Baker because of the legitimacy of her father.

In 1956 she changed her name officially to Marilyn Monroe after she had been acting for several years.

Marilyn was known as the “blonde bombshell” in many movies that she had appeared in, back in the 1950s and 1960s.

But unfortunately she died at the young age of 36 in 1962.
