Lindsay Lohan is annoyingly comparing herself to Marilyn Monroe. Sure, they’re both troubled blondes. I guess they’re both actresses. But c’mon now, lets get real. I wouldn’t put Marilyn and Lindsay in the same category – to say the least.
Lindsay’s comparison came in the forward to “Marilyn: Intimate Exposures,” a book by Susan Bernard. In it she writes, “people in their mind have created who I am and act as if there is no real person inside of me. Just like Marilyn.”
Many, however, would beg to differ, Lindsay. A lot of people see the person inside and that is the real problem. That shows a spoiled little brat who wants what she wants with no thought of the effect to others.
She goes on to write, “Marilyn never wanted to be just a celebrity. Neither do I … I had always thought that movie stars were in films that would last forever in your mind. But now the films don’t. I don’t want to be remembered as someone who just wanted to be photographed, who goes out at night, and gets in trouble.”
Perhaps the answer is staring Lindsay right in the face. She could just stop doing the things that get her into trouble in the first place. If she doesn’t give people a reason to be upset with her, their feelings might change over time.
She also reported, “Marilyn said she had no foundation. But she said she was really working on it. I’m trying to do the same thing…I believe in myself and I’m a good actress.”
Lindsay Lohan at least got that part right. She is a good actress when she sets her mind to it. She could even be a great actress one day, but first she has to take responsibility for her actions and she needs to make some amends so that people can see she really means it. It can’t just be lip action.
Maybe then, Lindsay Lohan will get the chance to prove everybody wrong. Everybody deserves a second chance!
I don’t believe for one second that Lindsay doesn’t want to be “just a celebrity”. Are you kidding me?
Here are photos from a 2008 photo shoot Lindsay did with the New Yorker, in which she channeled the late actress.
