It appears that Michelle Williams really can't shake off her role as legendary actress and sex symbol, Marilyn Monroe.
The 31 year-old has taken to the cover of US GQ magazine as we've never seen her before - wearing nothing but a platinum blonde wig and vintage-inspired lingerie to show off her set of dreamy curves - and bearing more than passing resemblance to the late pin-up.

A firm departure from the white, knee-length smock dresses and Peter Pan collars we're more accustomed to seeing Williams in, we're still digesting these pictures of her in smalls - courtesy of Eres, Agent Provocateur and Stella McCartne! y. But W illiams, who just scooped a 'Best Actress' Golden Globe for her performance in the hit film My Week With Marilyn , appears to be revelling in her new-found sexiness.
"I wouldn't say that that would be one of my first qualities as a human being-being sexy," says Williams in the accompanying interview. "And I think because my character on Dawson's Creek was sexy...sexualized...sexual...I saw all the negative attention and connotations that can come along with that. And that those things can keep people from seeing you clearly."
Maybe Michelle's vampish makeover could be the start of a whole new look for her, but if it's okay, can we have the girl next door back soon please?
