Tell me your first celebrity crush

[Catsandcannedbeans]

Mine was Richard Hammond. I walked in the living room at my nans when I was about 5 and he was on the screen with a seashell necklace on. I audibly said “wow” and my brother to this day makes fun of me for it relentlessly. My husband genuinely despises Richard Hammond which is pretty funny, he sees him as competition.

Also I used to really really like the Scottish engines from Thomas the Tank Donald and Douglas I think.

You said he was in NCIS 🤷‍♀️

Stephen Gateley

Probably Donny Osmond when I was about 9 in 1972. Then it was David Soul (of Starsky and Hutch) a few years later when I was 12/13.

Michael J Fox in Back to the Future

George Michael and Bruce Willis ( moonlighting era )

John Travolta.

Marc Bolan
Adam Ant
Queen’s Roger Taylor

I loved Kevin in the Wonder Years and remember writing a letter to him once but then having no idea where to send it 😂. Him and Joe McIntyre from New Kids On The Block 💕

Phil Collins…early 80s….I was absolutely obsessed with him
Bruce Willis…Moonlighting era
Michael Caine…a definite older man thing going on…
My woodwork teacher at school
My first “grown up boss” in the office where I started in 1989*

*I am married to him now though….

I went to see NKOTB in 2014 (after previously seeing them in 1991 and 2009). Jordan reminded me of Steve MacDonald from Corrie the last time though 😂😂😂. As mentioned above, I was a Joey Joe fan though!

David Soul from Starsky and Hutch

Honestly, mine was Marlon Brando! When I was at primary school in the 80s our teacher showed us the film of Mutiny on the Bounty as we were studying it, and I was transfixed! I remember wanting to hug him really tight, I must have been about 8 or 9. So innocent. One I got to my teenage years it was Keanu Reeves and Hugh Grant, but Marlon will always have a special place in my heart….

I forgot to mention Corey Haim too. So sad when you found out the full story

Oliver Tobias. He was in a thing about the Anglo Saxons back in the mists of time. I was absolutely swooning.

Terry Duckworth

Billy Idol
Adam Ant
The fox from Disney’s Robin Hood

A few years later, to my eternal shame…Brian Harvey from East 17. Really puts the embarrassing ‘fancying animated wildlife’ thing into perspective.

Stand back ladies. David Cassidy was mine. Had a poster the size of the bedroom wall of him. Was very sad when he died a few years ago a shadow of his former self.

And David Soul singing Silver Lady. Takes me right back.

Ben from A1 🫣

Lee Majors (Fall Guy) Michael Praed and character Dex Dexter (Dynasty)

Wayne Morris as robin hood in Maid Marian and her merry men.

Buck Rogers

Early 90s, Jon Bon Jovi and Jason Priestly.

Adam ant and Paul young now it’s Nitin Ganatra who is absolutely yummy

My first - at age 4 was Paul Darrow who played Avon in Blake’s 7 - I just looked him up and now (haircut aside) is not unlike my mother 😂
