Double Vision

Jayne Mansfield & Mariska Hargitay

I thought we would kick off the first day of July with some of that ole' Double Vision. 

Here we have a side by side of Mariska Hargitay of Law & Order: SVU fame with her Mother the legendary Jayne Mansfield.

Notice anything? If you said they are Dead Ringers for one another except for the hair color you would be correct!

I first went WOW when I spied this image. I would have never seen the resemblance unless these two phtos of Mother and Daughter had been placed side by side.

File it under: Things That Make You Go Hmmmm

It's time to July!

Just Because

Atomic Blondes
Jayne Mansfield & Marilyn Monroe

Just Because weekends were made for fun, Just Because glamour used to be a thing and Just Because two Hollywood icons are better than one here is a image for the ages of Marilyn Monroe & Jayne Mansfield.

There is some historical debate as to how close these two actually were, or weren't. Some say they were good friends, while others say they were casual acquaintances i.e. friendly in public, nothing past that.

All that being stated, the one thing that those in the know seem to agree on is they were not rivals. They were cordial and always wished the other well.

One take I read is that Marilyn never felt threatened by Jayne as she felt they were not in competition and there was room for everyone.

Hooray for Hollywood!!!
