i hate catie but this is not that bad..

If someone showed me this picture I would just assume it was Marilyn and never think twice about it. The resemblance is shocking.

Wow I'm shocked by the harshness against Marilyn Monroe. I love classic cinema and Marilyn is one of my all-time idols. That said, I don't think Catie looks like her here. Aside from the body, Catie being straight and skinny and Marilyn being curvaceous, Marilyn's pictures always exuded a certain twinkle in her eye, a charm, a smile behind them that Catie lacks. Catie is pretty, but she does not own the look. And DAMN, if you're not SKINNY, a person is not FAT by default - especially not Marilyn Monroe

^ Thank you.

Hahaha, I hate this picture.

AMAZING shot! She IS Marilyn Monroe in this! One of the best photos in ANTM history, BRAVO Catie!!!

^More like Marilyn MANson

^ Manson is more attractive than Catie. But Bryan, you're one of the few to think she nailed it...I guess I can't expect people who've never seen Marilyn Monroe before make an accurate compairison.

^I meant she looks like a MAN by that comment. Of course this looks NOTHING like Manson. And opinions change. I think she did terrible.

^ Finally someone has seen the light.

^Trust me, I am NOT the only one and neither are you lol.

^ But someone never left my bad side with their comments here.

I still think this is beautiful and one of the best of the week.

^I think it looks sorta like a man in a wig. None of the shots in particular this week were terrible, but if I had to pick the worst, either this or Camille's. But Catie has too much potential to go home.

I second David. I really don't see what is so bad about this shot. Ok, sure she isn't the exact clone of Marilyn partly because she isn't Marilyn but Catie! As an impersonation this is very good. I love the attitude and the body looks great.

^ She looks liek she's sticking her ass out for dear life! From a Marilyn lover to you guys, I guess I shouldn't expect you guys to really understand her fan's view points.

I understand what you are saying though. Her pose is a little bit too Jayne Mansfield. But the trouble with this shoot was that you had to either get completely into the skin of the fashion icon. Or at least have repeated viewing of Marilyn on film, Catie needed a little bit more context. She didn't have that 50's sensibility because it is so distant from today. She went with a stereotype, the only thing she knew about Marilyn. The swimsuit didn't help things, so easy to be overtly sexual.

i think this is a good picture

Drag and not Marilyn enough, the legs are nice though.

Bad face. It looks like a man
