Jennifer Aniston channels Kim Kardashian’s Marilyn Monroe Met Gala look

The Marilyn moments won’t stop coming.

Jennifer Aniston emulated Marilyn Monroe’s iconic “Happy Birthday, Mr. President” dress — and Kim Kardashian’s 2022 Met Gala outfit — when she attended a photo call in Paris for her new movie, Murder Mystery 2, last night.

The “Friends” actress, 54, brought back memories of the Hollywood blonde’s gown when she posed on the red carpet in a flesh-colored dress covered in sparkling crystals, with the look coordinating with the golden lights shining on the Eiffel Tower in the background.

Aniston’s version of the dress featured spaghetti straps and a longer hem as compared to the thicker straps and slim silhouette of the Monroe gown Kardashian borrowed for the Met Gala.

Just like Kardashian — who caused controversy when she donned Monroe’s actual historic gown — Aniston added a white fur draped around her arms as she bundled up along the Seine.

The “Morning Show” star wore her hair in her usual straight style and kept her jewelry simple, accessorizing with a gold bracelet and several gold rings.

Aniston joined her Netflix co-stars Adam Sandler, Mélanie Laurent, Dany Boon, Jeremy Garelick and Kuhoo Verm to pose for some on-theme photos in front of the Eiffel Tower, as the upcoming movie is set in Paris.

The “Break-Up” actress isn’t the only star to channel Monroe with her recent look.

Ana de Armas — who played the Hollywood legend in “Blonde” — wore two Marilyn-inspired outfits for the 2023 Oscars, sporting back-to-back sparkling nude dresses for a pre-party and the awards themselves.

Along with the similarities to Monroe’s gown, one fan pointed out on Twitter that Aniston’s frock was actually similar to one her character, Rachel Green, wore on a 1996 episode of “Friends.”

It seems like a nude dress never goes out of style.

Adrien Brody says ‘Blonde’ is supposed to be a ‘traumatic experience’

Actor Adrien Brody jumped to the defense of Netflix’s NSFW film “Blonde”, his latest onscreen venture after initial reviews were nothing if not disappointing.

The release of the Andrew Dominik-directed drama, which is rated a rare and staggering NC-17, has proven to be controversial as many slammed the film for its portrayal of the late Marilyn Monroe.

Brody, who plays Monroe’s third husband Arthur Miller in the film, shrugged off the criticism and instead called Dominik “beautifully brave” for tackling the film the way he did.

“I think that since it’s told in this first-person perspective, it works somehow for the film to be a traumatic experience,” Brody told The Hollywood Reporter. “Because you’re inside of her – her journey and her longings and her isolation – amidst all of this adulation.”

“It’s brave and it takes a while to digest,” Brody, 49, continued. “And I think it’s in conflict with what the public’s perception of what her life is.”

He continued, “And I think that’s where the film triumphs, because – whether it’s an extreme depiction or not – it’s honoring the extreme chasm between the public’s perception of the fame and the glory of Hollywood’s most famous, iconic actor, and the reality of that individual – the loneliness and emptiness and mental turmoil and abuse of that individual.”

“It’s fearless filmmaking,” the Oscar winner concluded.

The film is based on Joyce Carol Oates’ 2000 novel of the same name and also stars Ana de Armas, Bobby Cannavale, Xavier Samuel, Toby Huss, and Julianne Nicholson.

De Armas, who plays Monroe, was so intent on portraying the screen icon’s life story as accurately as possible she visited Monroe’s grave in Los Angeles to ask for her permission.

Dominik, 54, previously said that he knew he found his Monroe when de Armas walked into the casting room.

“It was like love at first sight,” Dominik said at the Venice premiere. “When the right person walks through the door, you know it.”

The Post’s two-star review of the film describes it as “hollow,” and says the film “amounts to one brutally horrible moment after another.”
