Being an alcoholic who uses tons of prescription drugs and who sleeps with anyone who will give them the least scrap of attention does NOT make one "Marilyn". Marilyn was more than the sum of her problems, and her problems are not what endeared her to her fans. Her talent as a serious actress, comedienne, and singer, not to mention being one of the most beautiful women ever are what made her an idol.
Ask any Marilyn fan out there, not one of them will be thrilled about her nervous breakdowns, miscarriages, divorces, drug and alcohol problems, or her death. Ask them if they want to watch "The Seven Year Itch" or "The Misfits", though...

| | | Lindsay's body is looking much healthier and hotter these days.
I don't think those photos are THAT bad, but Marilyn had a much more gorgeous face and I just think they're sorta hard to compare because Marilyn had a MUCH larger body of work than Lindsay has had or probably ever will, and Lindsay's films have been aimed at preteen girls and little kids, well the ones that lots of people saw anyways. Though I heard Georgia Rule wasn't that bad. Plus, Lindsay is more famous for rehab, not wearing panties, the number of men people say she's been linked with and rumours of her being a huge bitch then her career. Marilyn obviously was involved in lots of Hollywood rumours and scandals, but her films were also notable and she had a much better image of sexuality.
Scarlett Johansson would have been a better choice, in my opinion, to do a photoshoot like that with. She's been in more notable films and her style and overall look is much closer to Monroe's. And I'm saying this without even being a HUGE fan of her. |

...  | yup those are the very pics, in some of them she scratched the trannies and put tape on them.
marilyn was a true icon. beautiful and not someone who planned and machinated and calculated her career as much as lilo thinks she is (for example madonna and to a lesser extent kylie do but they work their arses off at doing it and surround themselves with very talented people to work with and collaborate) .
these pics are a poor poor imitation, no homage at all. hell when madonna did the naked in bed shot for vanity fair that was at least something a million times better than these crappy pics.
i'd be embarassed if i were the photographer.
