She ignored his pleas and went to the studio, beginning filming despite believing the film could be a "career-killer". However, she found that the film's title had become Pasta in Paris, a commercial for the "noodle product" Chicken Auteur Soup, directed by the Noodle Man. She witnessed a stagehand consume the contents of a can of the bone "soup", causing him to lose all of his teeth and his carotid artery to burst, and the Noodle Man eating another stagehand whole.

When Space Pilot 692 7896 was going to die in a solo spacecraft after a total systems failure, she thought of Marilyn Monroe. Dying that way was not the glorious exit that she had expected, but she had an in-flight recorder on board of the spacecraft. She thought that she would be immortalised on camera like Monroe, James Dean and River Phoenix. (HOMEVID: Scout Ship)
Navigator Lucien Ryne believed that Marilyn Monroe was a 20th century political figure who'd been assassinated with her husband, an Earth president. Based on images in holobooks, he thought she was the most beautiful woman that had ever lived, so he programmed BABE to look like her. (PROSE: Deadfall)
Behind the scenes
In Good Night, the Doctor calls a farewell to an unseen River Song and asks her to "tell Marilyn she'll have to use the biplane".
In TV: Death in Heaven, Missy sang "Happy Birthday" to the Twelfth Doctor the same way Marilyn Monroe famously sang it to US President John F. Kennedy.
