1.) Serena- Marilyn Monroe


This pick was extremely obvious because everytime I see Serena, I think blonde, head-turner, and extremely beautiful. Marilyn was ALL that. Serena and Marilyn were sexy and seductive- making any man fall in love with them. They both have this quality where they can bring attention to people and make their heads turn when they walk into a room.
2.) Blair- Audrey Hepburn


Blair Waldorf is the modern Audrey Hepburn. They may have some differences but they are very similar. Even though Blair isn’t as kind as Audrey, they both have fab, vintage style, making them known icons. They always have cute hairstyles and accessories. They also have classic etiquette and behavior. For goodness sake, Blair reacted a scene from one of Audrey’s movies!
3. ) Chuck- Rhett Butler (Gone With The Wind)


Rhett Butler, known as Clark Gable, must have reincarnated in Chuck Bass. They are exactly the same! They both are filthy rich, womanizers, dark and handsome, say the best comedy lines and want ferocious women- Scarlett and Blair. This was pretty basic.
4.) Nate- Paul Varjak (Breakfast At Tiffany’s)


I chose Nate to represent Holly’s love interest, Paul Varjak from Breakfast At Tiffany’s because I could see similarities in them. They both have that guy from next door look and they both had affairs with older women. They both also look hot in wet trench coats.
5.) Jenny- Lizzie Maguire

Jenny and Lizzie make a pretty good match. They’re both wannabes- doing anything to be popular like their rivals- Kate and Blair. They’re blonde, cute and extremely annoying- not so much Lizzie.
6.) Vanessa- Andie Walsh (Pretty In Pink)

This is also a good match because they both are the outsiders of the scene. Having great, unique style, they share a I-don’t-care-what-you-think-of-me attitude which defines their personality.
7.) Dan- Brian Johnson (The Breakfast Club)

Dan Humphrey and the “Geek” from the Breakfast Club make a funny duo. They are the nerds of the scene and the sweet, reserved boys too. They are silly and cute in a nerdy way.
8.) Georgina- Kathryn Merteuil

The flawless couple- the two meanest bitches of the Upper East Side. Both beautiful, they are manipulative, rude and fake. They want to destroy people. But hey, we all love them both.

Wow, thanks for this, that’s so cool!
and buffy played georgina’s sister in Buffy the Vampire Slayer
wow, that’s really cool, you have a great look for see these semblances between these past icons and the cast in gg
great job, thanks a lot!!
Blair did 2 Audrey scene’s (maybe even more…) just a few episodes ago she also did a My Fair Lady scene what also a Hepburn movie is… And I really love this article! It’s very good (although Blair was easy
)
ok wait a minute lizzy maguire is NOT a past icon! so the title of this post is wrong cause taylor momsen can’t be compared to any classic beautys cause she can’t pull that off
i LOVE the post! it’s SO COOL!
nice article
two thumbs up for YOU!!!!
very nice post
I thought Blair would be Jacqui Onasis. Then its Marylin and Jacqui fighting over their man. (Nate-President JFK)
nice post, interesting choices && concept in general. the only thing is a shame you picked lizzie maguire for taylor m. (lil j).
i see that as a dis. . .really.!?
Kim..love your post! I’ll be looking around for more…welcome to the team!!
xoxo

Great post eventhough I’m not too happy with Lizzie & Audrey. You reflected everyone SO well – as well from the looks as the character but when you came to Blair you only judged by the style.. there has to be someone else for Queen B I think. (Eventhough I have no idea who,.. haha.)
And as for Lizzie… well, Past Icon? Icon at all!? Haha.
Great Idea though!!
whoa…. first of all, Lizzie McGuire is not a past icon… let alone and icon herself…. besides even if she was, there is no way anyone can compare jenny humphrey to her… Lizzie is soooo NOT fashionable. I mean not in a Jenny Humphrey way, definitely not. And Jenny may be a social climber, she totally fits in anyway. She has the looks, the style, the attitude… the only thing missing is a really rich family. Don;t get me wrong tho, i love the Humphreys…
Anyways, besides Jenny Humphrey as Lizzie McGuire, i love everyone else on GG as posted here… Cheers to Kim!!!
The most fitting couple are Georgina & Kathryn Merteuil, absolutely brilliant!
i know that Blair really wants to be like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly…but i really don’t think she’s like them that much. To me, she’s more like Vivienne Leigh as Scarlett O’Hara (Gone with the Wind). It goes with Chuck as being Rhett Butler. Blair went after Nate for a long time. And for a long time Nate didn’t want her back the same way. she was chasing something that was (then) unattainable. It’s sorta like Scarlett wanting Ashley while Rhett wanted her…yeah wow..complicated lol!
