Hey i was wondering who's better pound for pound? I think Jayne's got it on! She was much more well adjusted and naturally beautiful than Marilyn. That's my opinion.

Depends on fans' tastes. I like them both equally and don't feel that one was better than the other. Marilyn did have her psychological problems that have been well documented. Jayne seemed to have develop some problems too at the end of her life as she seemed out of control in 1967. Jayne did have more confidence in herself than Marilyn ever did. Asi16d0de both being blondes bombshells, the resemblance between the two is a mere passing one. They did indeed have very different personalities.

I like both Marilyn and Jayne
However I think Marilyn's beauty was more under the knife while all Jayne really did was dyed her hair. I don't think she even got implants? I remember one of her biographies that Jayne busted out at an early age. -

Beauty's really just one's opinion, isn't it? Some people like Redheads, some like Blondes, some like Brunettes. Some like curvy gals, some like skinny gals. Some like olive complexions, some like pale complexions. I remember when I was a kid going into Waldenbooks and seeing the book HOLLYWOOD BABYLON with the most incredible looking woman on the cover. I had never seen anyone so beautiful in my life. I bought the book thenand now, almost 29 years later, I still feel the same wayJAYNE MANSFIELD.

I personally believe Jayne was more of a natural beauty than Marilyn. Sometimes, Mariltn came off drag-like, and other times she looked beautiful.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course, but in this case, I think Marilyn and Jayne were equal in terms of beauty and body. They both had the curvy hourglass shape and the platinum blonde hair. But if I did have to choose who was "hotter", I would have to say Marilyn as she seemed more natural to me - especially with her 'laughing' smile, as I call it.

I prefer Marilyn, although I think they were pretty equal, you know? It's all about what you prefer. Though whenever I see pictures of Jayne with darker hair, I really wish she would've done more shots with the darker hair; it brung out her facial features more than the blonde hair.

Marilyn Monroe was never one of history's most beautiful actresses in my opinion, but there's just SOMETHING about her that's hard to pinpoint. I think she and Jayne are about equal, even though I actually prefer Marilyn's body; Jayne's curves are SO extreme and exaggerated I find it less attractive. Facially it's probably too close a call for me (and it's amazing how much Mariska resembles her), they look very different but both beautiful.

Jayne might actually have the sexier body, but in addition to being a much more talented and intriguing screen presence, Marilyn is simply more beautiful in the face. It might be unnatural because she went under the knife (though, how much, really? A simple nose job?), but Marilyn is certainly more classically beautiful, a softer beauty. Jayne could be beautiful in certain poses or shots like in The Girl Can't Help It, but in other photos and films, she's no great beauty to me in the face.

I think with Jayne it really depends on the photo or film. Sure, Marilyn wore a lot of makeup, but even in photos where she's not as heavily made up she looks wonderful. Maybe Jayne just wore weird makeup sometimes, or her weight fluctuated. She just looks eccentric half the time, though always sexy.

I don't understand the difference. It's like she had a big nose and jaw and wasn't being photographed from her best angles or posing well for most of her life.
But I mean if you really want to talk natural (though soft) beauty, meaning someone who (seems like she) didn't have to wear too much makeup, that would be Grace Kelly. -

Jayne's face tended to change because she often did her own make up after she was released rom FOX and also, the alcohol abuse made her face EXTREMELY puffy. FOX really knew how to make her look good though. She was very overweight when she did A GUIDE FOR THE MARRIED MAN but in the filmthanks to the FOX make up departmentshe looks stunning.

She does look stunning, and I am sure you know a whole lot more about JM than I could ever hope to know!
But I just went over to YouTube to have a look, and I wonder. was she really "very" overweight?
I mean, her legs look slender, including her thighs. And her face looks more or less what it always looked (gorgeous). Her bosom, of course, is overflowing, but that's a given.
