After reading all the varied replies in the thread on body type, I'm curious as to which women all of you would prefer from these pairs (when they were in their prime, of course)? Since I could only do a poll for 1 pair, you'll have to write in your other choices.
Who do you find more attractive?
A) Grace Kelly or Marilyn Monroe?
B) Ginger or Mary Ann?
C) Angelina Jolie or Megan Fox?
D) Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey?
E) Christie Brinkley or Cheryl Tiegs?
__________________________________
My choices:
A) Grace Kelly without a doubt (Marilyn is way overrated)
B) Mary Ann (never cared for Ginger, though it's probably more because of her attitude)
C) Angelina Jolie (Megan has the youth advantage, but she's an Angelina wannabe who still pales in comparison)
D) Mariah Carey (they were both attractive in their prime, but I gotta give Mariah the edge)
E) Christie Brinkley (this, admittedly, was a tough one)

I agree with all your initial choices. I could never understand why Ginger was supposed to be the hot one when Mary Anne was cuter.
Beyonce over Hallie Berry by far.

B.) Mary Ann, she's cute, they sure packed a ton of lipstick for a three-hour tour.

You'd be wrong. Those who knew Marilyn in the mid 50's,
at her prime, say she was stunning is person, took your
breath away. As was Vivian Leigh. Someone who's under
rated is Liz Taylor. She never did much for me until I saw
her in a seldom seen movie a few years ago. She was
about 22, and holy cow, she was gorgeous. Violet eyes
that jumped off the screen, gorgeous. She also was known
to leave men speechless by just entering a room when she
was in her 20's.

Sinatra had an on again off again thing with
Marilyn in the 50's. He knew she was a basket
case though, and never took it seriously. Frank
and Joe Dimaggio had a constant feud going because
Joe knew he Frank was 'doing' Marilyn. She
lived in Frank's apartment in LA off and on and
it drove Joe nuts.

Super, thanks for posting the link. Every one of
these women could stand next to any of the
beautiful women of today. I was glad to see Liz
was number 1. Maureen O'Hara and Olivia
De Havilland are still alive. Olivia was beyond
beautiful when she was in her early 20's, just
a living doll.
You have to understand that to come across as
beautiful in the movies, you have to be even more
so in person. That's why you always hear people
go on and on about these women when they meet
them. I once read an article about Vivian Leigh
written by a woman. She said the first time she saw
Vivian in person, she was so gorgeous that she
broke down in tears, and couldn't speak. And even
after they became friends, there were times that
a certain pose that Vivian was in took her breath
away.

Axel... I guess its all about natural beauty. EvenBob hits it squarely on the head, you have to be even MORE stunning off-screen.
Its too easy to have augmentations these days. Classic Hollywood had really no such thing, it was you, your makeup, and your accents.
I thought Liz was underated until Cleopatra, and holy cow, its NEVER been close since, by others since. IMHO, Beyonce is 2nd to Liz,
with real natural beauty. Like EvenBob's first pic of Liz, the peepshow T by Beyonce is one of her best.
To be fair, and answer all the choices
A.) Grace
B.) Mary-Ann
C.) Angelina
D.) Mariah
E.) Cheryl
F.) Beyonce
Liz has always been my favorite, there's a beautiful mind to go with her looks, simply kind, and certain. I do miss her.

What I see is mere packaging. I don't even know some of the names such as Ginger (Ginger Rogers?) and Anne something or other.
