Virgins v. Vixens

Darlings, you confuse us. We gave up attempting to predict the outcomes of these little matchups long ago, but we were still a little surprised at how the last one shook out. You see...





JEAN SIMMONS IS DEAD.

Now, don't get us wrong. It doesn't surprise us that she lost; it surprises us that she lost so handily - by an almost 2 to 1 ratio. Certainly, Gina Lollobrigida is fabulous and formidable and you've all demonstrated a fondness for the Vixens over the Virgins, but there's a part of us that just assumes that the actress with the longer, better career is going to be the one most likely to win it. Shows how much we know.

So, with that in mind, we're going to switch things up and haul out one of the Big Guns. And by that we mean those actresses from the period who either had careers that were decades long, sometimes even up to the present day, or are such superstars that no one really needs to be told who they are. This newest entry into the ring is both. We weren't planning on unveiling her until later in the competition but you bitches need something to think about.

Strap yourselves in, ladies. You clearly have a fondness for the Killa from Italia, but she's up against a superstar now.

VS.



MISS SHIRLEY MACLAINE

How do you like them apples?

Strangely, it's a little hard to find period clips of Shirley's work on YouTube. A lot of Steel Magnolias and Terms of Endearment, but no worthy clips from The Apartment or Sweet Charity. Weird. We always try to feature clips from the actresses' heydays because ...well, just because. Anyway, you're going to have to use your memory on this one.
