Marylin Monroe, Grace Kelly, and Lucille Ball are just a few of the names that really stood out during the 50s. These three, very popular, ladies influenced 50s housewives in a tremendous way. Marylin Monroe was one of the biggest sex symbols in America at the time and women all around the U.S. watched her every move trying to, in a way, imitate her and her ways in order to grab their husband's attention. Grace Kelly influenced women and young women of all ages in the United States by being a fashion icon. The women would always keep their eyes peeled for any new fashion tips or any new outfits or trends. Lucille Ball was the typical 50s housewife, in the show "I Love Lucy." In this program she was the main character, Lucy. Although Lucy was a housewife to her loving husband Ricky Ricardo, Lucy stood up for herself and did not let anyone tell her what to do or push her around. her character stood for what women should be like, independent and not pushed around by their husbands or men in general.

The most influential person out of these three would have to be Marilyn Monroe. I still notice girls my age idolising her. Also, many famous people till' this day idolize Monroe. A great example would be Anna Nicole Smith. Anna would always state who her idol was, Marilyn Monroe, and even shot the famous "dress blowing over the legs" shot. I don't predict Monroe becoming forgoten any time soon...
