her eyes were blue green but photographed dark. and shes very charismatic in both film and pics - hard to say which is better. i personally love to watch her pics because its only in stillness that u can really watch her up close and not "miss" anything that u would with her moving around on camera.
They were more grey, which is why they seem dark in some pics. Again, I'm sure it depended on the light. On her 1946 modeling resume--not written by her--it reads: :Eyes: blue...Bust: excellent, Teeth: perfect."
Her eyes were gray/blue but more gray. So unless she was very brightly lit in color photos her eyes registered darker. The old color process wasn't very reliable back then either. You can really see the color of her eyes in "Bus Stop"
@safarigurl150 according to various biographies and some friends her eyes were cobalt blue not grey or green, according to the coroner were definetely blue.
Maybe Jayne and Marilyn had very different personalities, but she based her career and her image on Monroe--Jayne came to fame in a play that was based on MM's struggle to be taken seriously. Jayne was mocking AND hijacking MM's image. Of course, poor Jayne would quickly turn into the joke Marilyn feared becoming. MM made movies with Gable and Olivier. Jayne? "The Loves of Hercules" with Mickey Hargitay. Jayne was lots of fun, and not untalented, but she burned herself out with crazy publcity.
Shame as I thought she and Brando were heavenly together. I know they remained close friends but WOW. Fox seemed to throw Jayne in Marilyn's face when she broke from them to start Marilyn Monroe Productions with Milton Greene . I am assuming Marilyn was not liking her too much.lol
I think this was perhaps the only time Marilyn encountered Jayne Mansfield. Jayne is clearly trying to get her attention and perhaps trying to talk to her. And Marilyn is kind of blanking her, but in her defence, at that time, Jayne was blatantly trying to steal Marilyn's public persona.

How was Jayne trying to 'steal' Marilyn's persona? She repeatedly stated in public that her contemporaries had nothing to do with her success and that she and Marilyn were very different.
actually she portrayed rita marlowe....meaning monroe in the play that got fox interested in her. they wanted her to be bigger and better than marilyn, thus explaining the comparison....and yes jayne did steal marilyns image, she just spiced it up....she was the sex kitten, while marilyn was sexy but in a innocent kind of way.

She portrayed a character that was a parody of the bombshells, including Marilyn, but that does not mean she imitated her. Jayne also portrayed Betty Grable in The George Raft Story, did she imitate Betty too? There was nothing "kittenish" about Jayne as there was with Marilyn, she was over the top and cartoonish in her image, she had much less in common with Marilyn than MM did her predecessors, like Lana Turner and Betty Grable.
Chill out, i love jaynie...you seem to always lash out for people statinq their opinions on how jayne imitated MM. Its not a crime to wanna be like someone else, especially if you admire them. Jayne just seemed to want to follow behind MM. thats all i meant. I knew neither bombshell, this is just what I hear from older relatives/ people around during that time.

Wow, you call that "lashing out"? It is that unreasonable to ask people to elaborate on their statements when I suspect they are nothing more than hearsay?
No that was far from lashing out at ME. But i have seen you go heads up with others about this subject. If you knew Jaynie personally, then my deepest apologies, but if you're just a fan, you have every right to disagree. Plus you didnt ask me to elaborate,your reply saying she didnt imitate anyone, which is not asking anything. But hey I adore them both and I refuse to be another over emotional fan going back and forth on a vid that has nothing to do with MM vs. JM. good day Pinky
I have never 'lashed out' at anyone because they believed Jayne imitated Marilyn, but I have lashed out at a particular person who preferred name calling and immaturity to reasonable discussion. I asked you to elaborate when I questioned whether playing someone on-screen equals to stealing their image. Youtube comments often divert to subjects irrelevant to the actual video, but if you have an issue with that I recommend replying to the person who originally brought up Jayne.
you are so boring honestly ... cant you just let these people enjoy these old film stars for what they were to them....... everyone is diffrent and has diffrent opinons remember? or maybe you just enjoy "arguing the toss"?

Funny you call ME boring yet I never bring up Jayne on Marilyn related videos nor do I turn discussions about her into senseless school yard bickering like yourself.

No one "begs for it", that's just how you rationalise having nothing better to do than search women you have a clear disdain for and annoy their knowledgeable fans when they put you in your place.
I know things are tough for you right now, but give it time, once youve had the "transgender operation" to remove your male genitalia that have been getting you down for so long, YOU will be put into your "rightful place".
Then maybe you will die a tragic death, just as your Idols did. All the best bitchBOY, dougie xxx

Oh sugar, is that the best you can do? You can't stand to see a girl who isn't ashamed of her femininity, can you? No wonder you single out the most attractive female sex symbols to spew your diatribe upon.
Pink, you and I have had our back and forth over MM vs. Jayne, but this guy isn't worth your time. Blanked him out as soon as "bitchboy" came into the discussion.
This vid is great, by the way--a couple I haven't seen before.
What a wonderful set of pictures of Miss Monroe and Mr Brandon, notice that he left early that evening!!
Thankz!!
