I too have always thought she looked similar to Marilyn. Especially after seeing one particular candid photo of Marilyn that I thought was Jennie Garth.

No resemblance whatsoever, both incredible women however

Hell not, especially the lips! Yes, she is beautiful, but has nothing to do with MM.

She's kind of cute, but is nothing like Monroe, other than her died blonde hair.

i TOTALLY agree! I didn't even see it until I was watching an old 90210 and my mom pointed out how kelly always reminded her of marilyn monre & i was like DAMNN thats so true! Her voice too..she could pass as marilyn's daughter

Yes, I think so, too. Her profile picture reminds me of a younger Marilyn when she was a photographer's model and before she became an actress.

I personally don't see any kind of resemblance between the two but my mom also thinks they look alike.

You must be kidding OP
Jennie has a rabbit's face with ugly skinny lips -big buck teeth and a small weird mouth and a stick thin figure while Marilyn had nice full lips and a barbie's figure

I don't think she looks like Marilyn. But both are gorgeous.

Ironic, because Poppy Montgomery played MM in a biopic.
I've always thought Jennie looked and sounded like Marilyn. At least when she was younger. She didn't have her charisma or quite as much talent as Marilyn had, but she would have been perfect for a biopic. I never understood why she didn't try for a film career. Maybe she just wasn't stunning enough or womanly enough in a MM-like way for modern audiences.

I always thought she looked like Sharon Stone.
Get a brain, morans!

I think she looks a little like Poppy Montgomery from the CBS show Without A Trace.

I've always advocated the idea that she should play MM, if there was to be another biographical movie about her.
Too bad Hollywood is too myopic for an
intelligently
cast biopic

^It's probably because they're best known for playing 'Damsel in Distress' roles. Other than that, this seems like a far-fetched comparison to me.

I wouldn't say she looks or even acts like Marilyn Monroe but something about Jennie does remind me of Marilyn and I just can't figure it out.

Her voice and her face a little, but they are very different in their styles. Jennie seems more of the sweet, girl-next-door where Marilyn was very stylish and glamorous. I do think Jennie could play Marilyn well, though. She has the voice and smile.

No way, she is nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnarst.

in her dreams Marilyn Monroe was much prettier than her

That's funny because I always thought that too - it's something about the coloring and the softness with sensuality.

She looks, to me, like she could be Meredith Baxter's daughter.
