Notice how they look healthy and not like skeletons with skin stretched over…
Yea really, you know Marilyn is probably not the poster child people on here people want to use for what a wholesome, good, sex kitten should be. She was the “other” woman. She did drugs. Slept around like Paris Hilton.
We like to romanticize how good things were back then but forget the bad things.
BTW – plenty of hot, “healthy” sex kittens out there today who don’t do drugs or sleep with married men. Much better role-models then the above. Oh wait your limited vision is targetting Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchie and that other tramp who lives in rehab. But we ignore people like Scarlett Johannson, Jennifer Aniston (I don’t find her particularly hot, but others do), Halle Barry, Angelina Jolie, Teri Hatcher (for someone looking at late 80’s early 90’s stuff), and the list goes on.
The above picture is as played out and boring as all of the anti-bush/pro-obama pictures.
While I agree, I’m not sure Angelina is a good example. She was, as you put it, “the other woman” and has joined the stick-insect brigade.
And most people seem to forget, Angelina’s been “the other woman” more than once. Billy Bob Thornton was still with Laura Dern when he and Angelina ran off and got married. So I’m with you, I don’t think she belongs in that category.
I did not know that about Angelina. OK strike her and put in someone else. How is Sandra Bullock?
mmmmm Sandra Bullock!!!
Lolzers why is it Jolie’s fault that these guys can’t commit? I love that people hate Jolie for “breaking up the marriage” but isn’t it more the fault of, I dunno, the man who was actually in the marriage? The whole concept of “the other women” is stupid. Men can make choices. Stop blaming the women. Also–why Monroe is a superhero I have no idea.
True, but women can also make the choice to NOT get involved with a married man!
It not one person’s fault, its both. So he had the choice to stay faithful. So what? Going after a man already in a relationship is very whorish thing to do.
That makes no sense. It takes two to tango. (Yes, I know that phrase is over used, but it’s true.) Just because the man chooses to cheat, it doesn’t make his mistress blameless. If she didn’t know he was married, or commited, that’s one thing, but sorry, as soon as she finds out, she should dump him. And considering both Brad and Billy Bob were in high profile relationships, I highly doubt Angelina can claim ignorance.
It’s the fault of all three people involved really. The man for being unable to commit, the wife or girlfriend for allowing herself to be treated that way,and the “other woman” for doing the guy who is involved in the first place. If the two women were to tell him to go screw himself it wouldn’t be an issue.
Sandra Bullock, good choice.
You’re so right. if she wasn’t Lara Croft, she’d just be another homewrecking whore. That said, I realize that NO WOMAN CAN MAKE A MAN CHEAT if he doesn’t want to. But, really, when you can have any man in the world, don’t be so damn cheap.
Hee hee, well said.
She’s done way better work than that though; Gia in the biopic, deserved best supporting actress Oscar for “Girl, Interupted”, even her roles in “Gone in 60 Seconds” (Nick Cage remake) and Wanted…
The point was they were *sexier* “way back when”, and not anything to do with personal mores.
And they all bow to Rita Hayworth, the true goddess of all the pre-1950 sex kittens.
Halle Berry? The hit and run driver?
If we’re going to go back that far, then Rita should call Marlene Deitrich “Goddess” too.
“sexier” way back then is arbitrary. I find todays girls hotter then the way back then category. If I were to take my ideal “hottest girl of today” and put her againstm y ideal “hottest girl of yesterday” today would win. But again – that’s preference – and that is fine.
My original comment is how these posts picture tags are 1) Unoriginal 2) played out and 3) really really arbitrary and often times wrong.
I think these ladies have hot and class at the same time. I don’t see too much of that in today’s crop.
Yeah Angeleana is wholesome…she did break up brad and jen you know
Only according to the covers of supermarket tabloids. Only Brad, Jen and Angelina know the real story and they, appropriately, are not telling.
Very true. I keep hearing about how ‘classy’ they are. NO! They were the postergirls for all things trashy back then. Being hot doesn’t fix that. I’ll bet if they were ugly, they would have been taken out by the wives and cops many times over.
Not to mention that the very profession of *being* an actress was looked down on as akin to being a high-priced call girl.
“Beatrice Lillie was having her hair coiffed at Elizabeth Arden when the wife of the founder of the Armour meat-packing company entered, noticed her, and complained loudly that she didn’t realize there would be chorus girls present or she would not have come. Soon thereafter, as Lillie was leaving and saying goodbye to the manageress in the waiting room, she said, “You may tell the butcher’s wife that Lady Peel has finished.”"
THESE DAYS not the 80’s not the 90’s I did not say they were role models only that they were SEXY. And the reason why MM would be spinning in her grave in the 80’s is a reference to all the exposes on Ms. Monroe.
BTW all the “sexy” women you mentioned would have been considered “Skinny” by the definition of the 50’s NOT voluptuous and sexy ;P
Angelina Jolie is not a role model, she’s an attention monger!
There is a vast armada of women in the modern media who are not emaciated drug whores. Stop looking at supermarket tabloid covers and your life will be more enjoyable.
Michelle Obama, a really classy lady!
That’s Jane Russell, not Rosalind.
Identification FAIL!
Uh, folks? that is JANE Russell, NOT Rosalind! Aside from that, great caption!
jane russell , howard hughes girlfriend (and he was the designer of the underwire bra …. thx howie)
Does that mean she had floppy boobs? Neccessity is the the mother of invention.
Oh, hell no, her boobies were not at all floppy. Hughes wanted to emphasize her assets (and they were his, too, I guess) on the movie poster for “The Outlaw”, so the bra functioned more as a push-up than a support type.
Ivan LOVES healthy sex-kittens. Soft and round and cushy…round butts and full breasts…
Um…BRB *fap fap fap*
… I share the sentiment but you can handle the fapping.
I love the smell of Bacon Lube in the morning….
“IvanTheExtremelyAnnoyingWomanizingPig” would be a more appropriate title.
That’s JANE Russell…not Rosalind.
Deja vu; em no, this is just repetition!
I think the point is that they didn’t have to show it all to be sexy, unlike today’s starlets
Um, dunno if you realized, but that’s how at least Marilyn got famous. Sleeping with top celeb photographers, doing the most risque photo-shoots and getting her knees…err…hands dirty. She would have been hot without all that, but she wouldn’t have been famous.
Is there an article somewhere that says if she did that because she wanted to, or she thought she had to?
Any woman with integrity would have walked away if they thought they ‘had to’ for a movie role, fame, etc.
Yes, because women were loaded with rights, options, and self esteem at that time period… If memory serves she also had clinical depression which further skews things.
Any woman with LOW self-esteem would hardly get naked in front of the shower stall, let alone strange men.
Logic FAIL. You think hookers and call-girls have high self esteem? Do you know what it’s like to take off your clothes and dance in front of drunk strangers to make a fucking living? Seriously. Marilyn Monroe COMMITTED SUICIDE. Get off your high horse and suck it’s cock you wholesome condescending whore.
Or she was murdered by the CIA because she was schtupping John Kennedy.
On a slightly unrelated note, Stephen King killed John Lennon too!
And… sniffing anthrax helps prevent cancer!
I love the combination of Marilyn’s facial expression with what she’s saying! Made Oi larf, this did
I’m looking forward to making one of these in 2059 with pictures of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie saying the same thing… :3
A woman’s place is either in the kitchen, laundry room, or bedroom. Unless of course she’s outside, tending to the garden and her flowers or running errands for the man of the house… the same goes for now as the time in which the above captioned picture was taken.
You know what happens when you let women do what they want? They either become fat pigs or they get their fat asses on a treadmill and get in shape.
For shame.
Lllloooossseeerrrrr
lololol. that’s a good one! tell us another!
Q. Why don’t women go skiing very often?
A. There’s not much snow between the kitchen and the laundry.
There you go
The Truth, if you say something in jest, you’d better make it funny, or you’ll trigger an insane barrage of indignant replies…
In three, two, …
this. failure at 1. being intelligent 2. being funny. NO SOUP FOR YOU!
w’evs
lol trollllllll
To my knowledge, Jane Russell is still alive and living in North Dakota.
According to wikipedia, she’s in the Santa Maria Valley.
Er, California. = )
they look the same as most models today just in black and white…I mean honestly models that look anorexic aren’t actually popular the only people that think that are obnoxious old people like the person that made this
ACTUALLY Maralyn was apx size 12 when this photo was taken & Russle a 7-8
Today’s models would have been what was then and unthinkable size 4 (today’s 2)
Click my name for a look into the shape and size Monroe really was, there seem to be quite a few misconceptions about it.
The sizes in the article are British dress sizes so you may have to do some conversions. I’ll edit the most revealing paragraph to use American sizes:
After all these years, mystery and conspiracy theories still surround her death, but when it comes to her physical attributes, I can put a few facts straight. Contrary to received wisdom, she was not a voluptuous size 12– quite the opposite. While she was undeniably voluptuous – in possession of an ample bosom and a bottom that would look at home gyrating in a J-Lo video – for most of the early part of her career, she was a size 4 and even in her plumper stages, was no more than a 6. I can tell you this from experience because a few weeks ago, I tried to try on her clothes.
MM was actually various sizes throughout her career. yes a 6 at her thinnest (somethings got to give) but also a 12 (our 14) at her biggest. ALSO don’t forget “foundation garments” aka girdles would have accented her figure and nipped in her waist.
I call BS on your “trying to try on her clothes” bit. No one would allow it and anyone with sense knows it. Those dresses would sell for very high prices at auction block. No one would risk their invest letting people try them on. Find a new lie.
I think ceefax just failed at quotation marks.
If we post a bunch that it’s actually
JANE RUSSELL
will the cheezes fix it?
this one tells the god’s honest truth
i’d hit it… or them…
FINALLY!!!!! Someone who agrees that a woman doesn’t have to look like she’s feenin for a friggin cheezburger.
Wait.. How come Audrey Hepburn never got a mention in this thread?
Talk of beautiful AND classy!
*crushed*
