Celebrities Question 2
Before They Were Famous Too - It was a relatively short road to fame for this beautiful actress. After guest appearances on the series "Amen", "They Came from Outer Space", and "A Different World", she became part of the regular cast of the 1989 comedy series "Living Dolls". Who is this star?
The correct answer is 'Halle Berry'
The first African American to win the Oscar for Best Actress (2001's "Monster's Ball"), Halle has a reputation for 'living' her roles. For her supporting part as a crack addict in 1991's "Jungle Fever", she reportedly refused to bathe for several days so she could get into character.
Celebrities Question 3
Celebrity Legends: Fact or Fiction? - At her heaviest, what size dress did Marilyn Monroe actually wear in the 1950s?
The correct answer is 'Size 16'
Sizings have been altered throughout the decades to ensure that the "average" man and woman are wearing the "average size" of a particular population. For example, the size of an average woman has increased slightly over the decades, so dress sizings have changed to reflect this. Although Marilyn's dresses were mostly custom made and therefore would not have a size tag inside, her measurements are readily available for comparison. A woman of Marilyn's height and at her heaviest weight would probably wear a size twelve today, but in the 1950s, she would have easily fit into a size 16 or even 18.
