Moni – If you’ve been in a relationship with a woman (for years), your living with her, your sleeping with her, (going to work with her!), joined at the hip basically 24/7 – You ARE a lesbian … Just because Lindsay won’t publically embrace the label doesn’t mean she’s not a lesbian, or she is “pretending to be a lesbian just to be in the tabloids”. Lindsay will be in the tabloids no matter what. Lindsay loves Sam – Sam loves Lindsay. People need to deal with that.

I think they coulda found someone who looked more like Madonna than Lindsay…. Lindsay doesn’t look anywhere close to even slightly resembling Madonna, to me. I don’t think she looks anything like M.Monroe either.

Yet again, the lack of reporting on the diversity this spread had. What about putting up the photos of Paula Patton as Billie Holiday or Chanel Iman as Althea Gibson? I assume that’s too much to ask.

cool idea, though I don’t agree with all of them (Michelle Obama doesn’t qualify as icon status…yet. She has the oppertunity though depending on what she does next). I also don’t get some of the hollywood starlet choices…Lindsey? Really? She is not even really a singer and she jumps at any chance to portray one. I LOVE the idea of Alexis as Rosie.

WOW I think that this was an amazing idea. I do agree about the Michelle Obama picture, she hasn’t done anything to change history…yet. I think people need to get off that train already (yes, I’m an avid Obama supporter, but I’m not a sheep, either).

I have to agree with some others about Michelle Obama. I hardly think she is an “icon”. Like someone else said, perhaps one day, but as of now she’s barely accomplished anything. She went to Princeton and Harvard Law, which are certainly wonderful achievements, but many other women have achieved that very same goal.

I am sure that she will achieve many things while First Lady, but let’s not jump the gun and call her an “icon” just yet.

Grace – Lindsay perfectly described the influence Madonna had on young girls everywhere – we all danced around the house to her music at some point. Madonna’s music is the soundtrack to my childhood …

PixieBassline – Lindsay is only 22 … The Immaculate Collection came out in 1990. Lindsay could not enjoy Madonna’s early work, as she was not born until 1986.

Do you think the magazine people do research on this kind of stuff before they print it?
Alexis is NOT portraying Rosie, she is portraying another popular figure that is NOT Rosie.

Oh deffo my fave has to be Hayden’s , she looks amazing as Amelia Earhart , is my least fave goes to LiLo , dunno even her message is kinda silly.

Lindsay as Madonna????? *barf* I look more like Madonna than she does!! And “when she was little” she’d dance around to Immaculate Collection? LOL -you mean a collection of HITS, after she’d been around for a decade or more??? When I was “little”, I danced around to Madonna’s FIRST hits – Borderline, Lucky Star, etc.
Lindsay ANNOYS the hell out of me!!

Alexis is adorable. I really need her to be back on TV.

i love the whole idea, and alexis looks the cutest, but i love elisha’s pic the best i think

You know what annoys me the most?
While all the actresses talk about who they are portraying, Lindsay Lohan is, once again, talking about herself —
“When I was little, every day after school I would come home and put in her The Immaculate Collection disc and karaoke to it around the whole house.”
Madonna’s been in the biz for nearly 4 decades now. Can’t you talk about her achievements instead of your karaoke session?!

Wasn’t Mary Tyler Moore a fictional character? I know it’s her name and The MTM Show, but wasn’t that whole thing based in fiction? Carrie Bradshaw is just a more modern version of MTM, if you ask me…

By: anne

anne — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 19:33:29 +0000

Totally agree about Carrie Bradshaw. Even as a fictional character, she is not a strong female (in my eyes) by any means. They could have picked an actual writer, like Gloria Steinam.

@ Trent — Yes! Janis was exactly who popped into my mind; that would have been hot. I wonder who would have portrayed her?
