The Role: Jackie O
The Actors: Katie Holmes or Rachel Weisz
And The Frisker Goes To: We'll have to wait and see who will look better rocking Jackie O's signature sunglasses, pill box hats, and Chanel suits. Both actresses are set to play the icon in upcoming projects. Katie Holmes will play the country's most famous First Lady on the small screen in "The Kennedys," an eight-hour miniseries to premiere on The History Channel in 2011, while Rachel Weisz will star in a big-screen feature, directed by hubby Darren Aronofsky, which focuses on the days immediately following JFK's assassination. Even though everyone is eager to compare the two performances, Rachel insists, "It's not a competition ... It's great that [Katie] has the opportunity to play her as well." How very diplomatic of her. Maybe she's already in character. My money's on Rachel Weisz all the way. Everyone knows she's a better actress. Although Katie has so much experience being a Stepford wife. [People]
