Behind a Painted Smile

"Being sex symbol is a heavy load to carry, especially when one is tired, hurt and bewildered." - Clara Bow

Gypsies, Tramps and...

Classy Brass

"I thought Alice Faye had more class to her looks." - Marilyn Monroe on Betty Grable

Let's Get Physical

"We're not really alike...She is a much bigger girl." - Mamie Van Doren on Marilyn Monroe

Twinkle, Twinkle

"Some movie stars don't seem like stars when you meet them, and some seem more like stars off the screen than on. I don't know which type is better, but Miss Crawford [is] definitely the latter type." - Marilyn Monroe

We're Back...

...with a challenge for you! Meet our Divine Dozen:

These broads -- and we use that term with the utmost respect and affection -- are the most frequently-posted on SSUWAT. But only one, by way of your votes, can be named Queen of the Lot. Tell us who should wear the crown, and why. We can't wait to hear from you, darlings -- and, needless to say: we've missed you.

Attention, Music Lovers

Bless the Beasts and the Children

"I've always admired Miss Crawford for being such a wonderful mother -- for taking four children and giving them a fine home. Who better than I knows what that means to homeless little ones?" - Marilyn Monroe

Excuse Me, Myth?

"You have a nerve saying that Marilyn was a myth, and I'm just a lousy legend! I'm more beautiful than Marilyn Monroe ever was, and I'm certainly a much better actress. What the hell do I have to do to be a myth? Die young and at my own hand?" - Elizabeth Taylor
