Marilyn: Elle’s Movie Icon


Actress Elle Fanning, 14, has once again named Marilyn as her idol, reports ONTD.

“Q: Who is your Hollywood icon?
A: I saw The Seven Year Itch at about seven years old. It’s part of what made me really want to be an actress. That Halloween I was Marilyn Monroe in the white dress, with the mole. I went to the vintage Levi’s store in London yesterday, and they had denim from every decade. The lady said that the ’50s jeans were the ones Marilyn Monroe used to wear–not the actual jeans, but the same style. They were high-waisted, and they tapered at the calf. I’m still thinking about them. Maybe I’ll get them for Christmas. Then I can look like Marilyn Monroe.”
