I know, rhetorical question. Marilyn Monroe is the iconic sweetheart, yesterday's forever darling. Witness this photo; Marilyn Monroe in sand sculpture in St. Petersburg, Russia.

That's carrying power.Versus our newest "superstar" (by someone's definition, not mine): Lady Gaga on stage yesterday in Chicago.

Can you foresee anyone sand sculpting the Lady Gaga some 48 years after her death? Or even remembering her 10 years from now?
Marilyn Monroe wins the "Classy Babe Forever" contest, dress down. Even '80's Madonna could not keep up with Marilyn Monroe.
Surely there's some better offerings in today's lineup of female "superstars"? Who?
