10 Reasons Why Elizabeth Taylor is Fiercer (Better for those of you that don’t speak mo) Than Marilyn Monroe

1. Just in case you missed it Elizabeth Taylor’s full title is DAME Elizabeth Taylor. Dame as in knighted by the queen. That’s right, royalty status.

2. In addition to being a dame, she’s also a dime (perfect 10 baby) The woman is stunning.

3. What has Marilyn Monroe actually done for you, (inspiration alone can't pay the bills) or anyone else for that matter?

4. I realize that number 3 isn’t a reason, so now I will list some of the awesometastic things that Dame Elizabeth Taylor has done besides bless us with her presence on Earth:

• In 1991 she founded the Elizabeth Taylor HIV/AIDS foundation

• She makes and sells jewelry. (QVC, honey)

• She’s given our Grandmothers their favorite scent, White Diamonds.

5. She can actually act. She has two Academy Awards and was nominated 5 times.

6. She is on Twitter! Her Twitle is DameElizabeth (We can’t hold this against Marilyn for obvious reasons, R.I.P. Gurl)

7. Liz was biffles with Michael Jackson. (R.I.P. M.J.)

8. She was born with first names to spare: Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor. Marilyn was born with the name Norma Jeane Baker. There’s no comparison really. Really.

9. Charlotte from Sex and the City named her precious doggy after the Dame.

10. Liz Taylor outlived her opponent in this competition, and still looks great.

*They are both icons in their own right, I just think Liz does it better.







Besides, if this was a Whose Image is on the Most Tacky Memorabilia competition, Marilyn would win.  (Unless Lucille Ball was involved in which case Lucy would win by a landslide, naturally)
