For the record.
In case anyone was wondering, I am (perhaps surprisingly) not vehemently anti these Lindsay Lohan photos by Bert Stern copying his final photo shoot with Marilyn. I know, I know, I hate hate HATE LiLo, but that's not the point. All these so-called Marilyn "purists" are saying it besmirches her memory and other such tripe. They seem to be forgetting the fact that Norma Jeane was an emotionally and mentally unstable starlet, addicted to drugs and alcohol, prone to self-destructive behavior, public indescretion, and not wearing underwear. Sound familliar? Marilyn, in her day, shocked her world more than Ms. Lohan could EVER shock ours. I don't know if Lindsay reads Joyce on the sly, or has desperate aspirations to play Grushenka one day, but I'm sure she has depths nearly equal to those of Norma Jeane that nobody cares to acknowledge.

I just didn't like them because I thought she looked flippin' ugly in them.

By the way...the London Times online had this interesting little segment were they published these pictures of Marilyn as a little girl and teenager. Seen it?

I found it when reading this article about Perez Hilton. It doesn't have a link, it's just on a sidebar and it opens a slideshow.

i don't think lindsay lohan has any depth at all.
i think we'd like to think she does.
OR
SHE'D like to think she does. or at least have us think so.

i feel there was a genuine truth and gracefulness about marilyn when it came to her own demons and how she embraced/dealt with them - i think lindsay absolutely loves the image. attention seeking bore. blonde wig forever. its pathetic and fucking yawn.

as for the photos, i don't really care. its imitation in all its glory.

sorry, i just HAD to get it off my chest.
celebrity brats get tiresome after awhile.

i am 100% there with you and marilyn though.
