Frivolity Break: Madonna Vs. Marilyn Monroe

The other night, The Other Half called me into the TV room for a pop culture moment. He had the DVR paused at the beginning of Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend, Marilyn Monroe's iconic song and dance number from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Of course, after watching it, I had to go to the YouTubes and watch Madonna's homage to the piece, her video for Material Girl. Both are pretty fantastic, though Madonna wisely limited the bad "grey jobs" on the guys' hair, compared to the movie.  So first, here's the original:

And the Madonna take, Material Girl
