Marilyn Monroe
Was it too much to ask of Hollyweird too cast a cuvry girl to star in the new Marilyn Monroe movie? I like Michelle Williams okay, but she dosen't have curves. Is this not just another slap in the face to us curvy girls, that they would select another slender chick, once again, for the part? I mean, we have very few celebrities out there that us well endowed gals can relate too, and then they are often reffered to as fat. I want to see a curvy Marilyn and stand proud of the curves God gave me, cause honey, they ain't going anywhere no matter how much I diet! My junk in the truck is solid, so I gotta except it and move on!

Depends on what country sizes you're talking. At her smallest she was North American size 4, and largest no more than a 10.
Here's her measurements:
Height: 5 feet, 5½ inches
Weight: 118-140 pounds
Bust: 35-37 inches
Waist: 22-23 inches
Hips: 35-36 inches
Bra size: 36D0 -

I'm old, so I remember the curvy women like Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, and Raquel Welch. Those are the kind of curves women had back then and where proud of. And back then men were crazy about those women.0 -

Don't forget though a size 14 then is NOT the same as a 14 now. Vanity sizing has really changed things - even in the last 20 years.0 -
I would like to see at the very least a medium sized curvy woman. I think Michelle is curvy but on a much smaller scale....:flowerforyou:0
-
Just to mention, Marilyn Monroe had much of her clothes custom made for her because of her super hourglass figure.0

I dont think michelle williams is curvy. she does HAVE small curves but in my opinion curvy is J-lo, Beyonce, Nigella Lawson, Kim K...If that makes sense...it makes sense in my head though lol
Just my opinion...dont shoot.:flowerforyou:0 -

Not shooting you, but your picking out thicker curvy girls, I'm 113 and pretty curvy.0 -
Sophia Vergara is curvy! I love her! Very funny too!0
-
i love women from "old" hollywood. they were curvy, healthy looking women. hollywood women today emphisize on being anorexic looking and i cant stand it- to me its not sexy.
we need to bring back more women with curves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

She would be perfect! Great suggestion, she is gorgeous!0 -
I think she looked pretty good. I do agree that she is a lot more slender than Marilyn...and I had heard that she had to wear butt pads to give herself a few more curves...
If I had to recast though...maybe Scarlet Johansen. She has some curve appeal. Although not a good actress in my opinion.
Christina Aguilera has some new great curves too, but again...don't know if she could pull off the acting side of things...0 -
Marilyn Monroe's size varied quite a bit throughout her career. In early pictures, she is downright skinny.
She was blessed by having a body and face that somehow never looked fat or fatter at least.
Christina Hendrix would have had to lose quite a bit of weight to play her.0 -
I for one think Christina Hendricks dying her hair blonde would have been perfect for the job!0
-
Someone already posted Marilyn's stats
Michelle is 34C-26-34
And Marilyn's today equivalent size I believe is a 0.... FAR from a 14.0 -
I saw the film and thought they padded her figure, especially in the opening scene-0

Which is why i said that she does have curves but small curves. & correct me if im wrong but i believe that Shakira is only 105 lbs or something close to that
Beyonce...only 130...curvy
THAT is curvy to me. Shes not fat at all..and doesnt weigh alot, but she has curves..0 -
I agree. Its nice to know that back then you didn't have to be a size 2 to be considered sexy. I would like to see someone who is about the same measurements to play the part. But this just my opinon.0

Agreed 100%. How did i miss Scarlet when i was going on my rant!? lol0 -

Christina Hendricks is too big for this role. Watch her in the movie Drive. In "regular" clothes you would walk right by her.0 -

I can think of quite a few 'well endowed gals' that are extremely popular right now. And Marilyn's physique is OBVIOUSLY something that is easily easily attainable.

5’4″ or 162.5cm

That's really not that far off...0 -
I'm sure they based their decision mostly on the fact that she looks fantastic as Marilyn and she is a very good actress. Women don't really have the same hourglass look women had back in the day because we don't wear girdles and torpedo bras anymore. Not saying they weren't fabulous but times change.
I do like that I am noticing a lot of different figures on tv lately. Christina Applegate looks great on Up all Night. Penny is so cute on Happy Endings. Maybe we are starting a nice shift in what is expected of body types...0 -

I totally agree, Beyonce doesn't weigh a lot but she is a thicker girl. Shakira, at 105 lbs is pretty darn curvy too lol. I'd kill for her little body.0 -

I don't think Marilyn was as curvy as everyone is saying she was...She weight about 140 at her highest. She had an hourglass shape and to me, that isn't curvy. Beyonce is curvy. Marilyn just wasn't stick thin. Her tummy was flat, her arms were skinny, her legs were not fat either. And Scarjo's stomach is way bigger than hers and her hips and butt.
Why does everyone think she was so curvy, I don't get it. Yes, she wasn't Kiera Knightley skinny, but jeez, she was skinny!0
