Default Classic Hollywood Beauties

Ok, since we have been talking about hot people, let ask you who is your favorite beauty from old Hollywood.
I know there is a lot I'm forgetting, so feel free to mention if your fave is not included in the poll.

Btw, mine is Elizabeth Taylor, followed very close by Vivien Leigh.

And yes, many of classic beauties are still hot, like Sophia. She is 70 and she was very HOT for her birthday

Lightbulb Hmmm...

Out of the ones on the list, I chose Grace Kelly. She was a Princess, after all. Also, she's the most classy, IMO. She was terrific in High Society, one of my fave musicals.

Catherine is a classic Hollywood beauty? She's rather contemporary. Gorgeous, nonetheless.

I voted Greta Garbo just for inspiring 2 Stevie songs. Unfotuntly both are mediocre at best but still she made 2 Stevie songs.

Had to go with my gal Marilyn, whom I've adored since birth practically. Other women were more beautiful (Grace Kelly, etc) but she just had something special. I loved that she combined sex appeal with humor.

Audrey is gorg. most expressive eyes. I had a good sized obsession with Marilyn between ages 13-15 or so. knew everything about her. Couldn't rightly pick a blond for most beautiful. Also, some of her performances brought embarrassment to my cheeks.(bus stop, mainly) Plus, i really thought Vivien was most beautiful.

Vivien Leigh!

I thought I'd be the only one to vote for her.

I have been obsessed with her since I was 13 and first saw GWTW, she had green eyes and she was a scorpio and when I was young, I was told I looked like her TWICE by two different people LOL. I do NOT look like her but that was THE highest compliment ever. I don't even ever mention it because I could never be in that realm of natural beauty.

She is the epitimy of gorgeousness to me.

The rest are amazing too.

If Audrey were there, I might have voted her, since , basically, I have seen ALL of her movies and I thought she was stunning in every single one.

Out of the choices available I chose Marilyn. However if it was an open choice I would've chosen Joan Crawford. There's something about her I find absolutely mesmerising.
