When blonde and beautiful actress Katherine Heigl stepped up to the podium at the recent 80th Annual Academy Awards at the Kodak Theatre I was taken back by how much she reminded me of a modern version of the beloved Marilyn Monroe - aka - Normal Jean Baker.Yes, I know, Lindsay Lohan has claimed the current rights to Marilyn clone as per her recent appearance channeling the blonde bombshell for New York magazine. Reportedly Playboy founder Hugh Hefner offered the actress the chance to pose nude in his magazine as Marilyn.
I personally don't agree that Linds has a lock on Marilyn but I really think if you stop and look at Katherine, she definitely is a gorgeous version of Marilyn.
Digging through some old black and white photos I found one of the celebrated Marilyn in her famous role of How To Marry A Millionaire.

In a photo from The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts the famous Marilyn Monroe was wearing a long form fitting red dress with one strap over one shoulder.
Her platinum blonde hair was worn chin length with a soft wave cascading down from the sides along her face and around the back.
