Megan Fox vs. Lindsay Lohan: Who's More of a Marilyn Monroe Wannabe?

Sept. 26, 2009— -- Today's reigning tabloid queens, 23-year-olds Lindsay Lohan and Megan Fox, have more in common than being sometime-actresses and all-the-time trouble-makers.

The two starlets claim to be the biggest Marilyn Monroe fan out there.

It seems the two Irish-American celebs are in direct competition to be crowned the next Marilyn.

Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, we don't know, but IrishCentral decided to take a look at the stars' stats and decide: who's more of a Marilyn wannabe?

Tattoos:

The most glaringly obvious sign that Lohan and Fox are mega-Monroe fans is their body art.

Both girls have many tattoos, but their most famous ones are their tributes to their idol.

Lindsay has two tats of famous Monroe quotes. The newest one, which she sports on her right arm, reads in cursive: "I restore myself when I'm alone," and is surrounded by multi-colored stars.

This marking matches the one on her other arm, which reads: "Stars, all we ask for is our right to twinkle," a play on Marilyn's famous saying: "Everyone's a star and deserves the right to twinkle."

Megan, meanwhile, went a step further with her devotion to Marilyn's memory and had a large photo of the legendary starlet's face tattooed on her right forearm.

Of the body ink, Fox has said: "I committed to having her face on my arm for the rest of my life, so I have to be a pretty big fan."

Megan is the clear winner in the Marilyn tattoo war – having someone's face etched into your skin is way more hardcore than committing to a quote or two.
