France's first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy said in an interview with Vanity Fair that she sees herself as being similar to Jacqueline Kennedy.
Weeeeelllll, I don't think so! The Kennedy's were in the White House well before Bruni was born. Things were different "back then." I did a quick search for pictures of "Carla Bruni." It was difficult to find any where she was wearing any clothes. That's OK, it's just that the modesty thing keeps her a little dissimilar with Jackie. The relationships with Jagger and Clapton et al, well, there was talk of Jackie & Sinatra. In those days, an affair would be a private thing. Carla has a hit album on the charts in France, I don't think Jackie could sing. Yes the two first ladies were young and familiar with fashion and not hard to look at, but that's where (for me) the similarity ends.
Oh - there is one striking similarity - they both did an excellent job of "marrying well."
