Monroe was awarded the Henrietta Award for World Film Favorite – Female, a special recognition for her popularity and impact on Hollywood, despite not being as active in films at the time. She had been facing personal struggles and hadn’t starred in a major film for a couple of years. That night, Marilyn made one of her final public appearances. She wore a glamorous white gown and appeared fragile but still stunning, embodying her classic Hollywood charm.
The event was also marked by Marilyn’s somewhat reserved demeanor. This would be one of her last major public moments, as she tragically passed away later that year in August. The Golden Globe award was a recognition of her status as an icon of the era.
