Anna Nicole Who?

Despite the problems surrounding her death and the parentage of her five-month-old, Anna Nicole Smith won't really be remembered all that long.

In the end, she was just a Marilyn Monroe rip-off. Her entire look and brand was based on Marilyn Monroe. And things that are already in the mind aren't replaced by mere substitutes.

There'll be a few months of occasional news spots, and then what will there be to remember her by? A few old pictures, a few interviews, a couple of reality shows no one will rerun. Nothing of substance. Marilyn Monroe didn't just have the look, she was also intelligent, and had a few films considered great, including "Some Like it Hot," which was ranked #1 comedy of all time by the AFI.*

It'll soon be goodbye for Anna Nicole.

* I like it, but it wouldn't be my #1. "Young Frankenstein" takes that honor. That was AFI's #13.

	Aspasia February 12, 2007 05:10 PM PST And Marilyn Monroe can be seen as a Mae West rip-off, presented in a more acceptable, mainstream package (i.e. a silly, naive blonde cupcake). Only Marilyn had serious self-esteem issues, was somewhat intelligent and had some talent. Marilyn's sexuality was as fake as her hair dye and stemmed from her childhood insecurities and not from any genuine passion. In the end, both Marilyn and Anna Nicole had personal issues they tried to medicate, if you will, with shoddy substitutes.


	tralala February 12, 2007 10:45 PM PST Oh "Aspasia" you are such a pure breed, right? So wonderful that you sit in your card bord appartment and throw with shit at American legends. Bitch like an old Norma Desmond...where is your problem? Pathetic awful insensitive fucks! Both of you.
