Which celebrity do you (respectfully) thirst for? (Title edited by MNHQ at request of OP)

Help me, in my perimenopausal, disturbingly sex-crazed state, by telling me which celebrity you find the hottest.

Mine is Pedro Pascal. I would let that man do terrible, terrible things to me.

Surely the less you know about slebs the more attractive they are? Their hotness lies in their mystery. I followed Brie Larsen because she was hot as hell playing captain marvel and had to very quickly unfollow, as it killed the illusion.

I actually named my 8 year old son Cillian because of Cillian Murphy!

Ed Harris in his circa aged 46 incarnations.
Professor Snape (the character, not AR neccessarily)
Lucius Malfoy (same)
Gary Oldman (although I suspect he's quite difficult to be around considering the 37 ex wives and all that)
Isabella Rossellini

Pronounced 'specifically' as 'pacifically'?

Google “28 days later”. Went to see the film and thought he was the most beautiful man and loved the name - swore I would call my first born son Cillian. 12 years later I did 😆

ILookAtTheFloor · 13/04/2023 17:03

My DH has been told lots of times he looks like Pedro Pascal, I didn't even know who he was and had to Google him! I'm obviously a lucky woman 😂

I reported to MNHQ to say that these comments would come and they said they're looking into it but left the thread standing.

I'm sure it'd have been pulled in a millisecond if men were here talking about which women they'd shag.

Gordon Ramsay for me. Not everyone’s choice but 🤷🏻‍♀️

now that would be a stone cold crush killer. unless English isn't their first language. So you could forgive Pascal that one.

Leonard Cohen in about 1976.
Mel Gibson at the time of the first lethal weapon films.
Agree Jason Statham - in the garage fight in the transporter.
When I was little Richard Chamberlain in Dr Kildare, was sad when he turned out to be gay as I'd wanted to marry him when I grew up.
Steve van Dyke wasn't bad.

James Norton

Either in full rough Tommy Lee Royce mode or as a posh boy, I don't care!

That picture of him in the paper eating toast in bed is seared upon my memory. I definitely wouldn't kick him out for dropping crumbs 😍

Oh my goodness, same. 😍

GloomySkies · 13/04/2023 17:08

Nothing pacifically (😂 ) and I'm sure she's very nice if a bit navel gazey like many slebs. She's just very definitely Not Captain Marvel. The hair and makeup are such that she doesn't even really look that much like Captain Marvel.

I had to unfollow Chris Hemsworth before I went off him as well but I think that was more jealousy over his ridiculously perfect life than anything else.

WAIT Richard Chamberlain was GAY??!!

I had quite the crush as a young'un too. How did I manage to miss that?

Love Sam Neill- but not as Mr MacGregor (or indeed the Badger) in Peter Rabbit. Everything else though. In Dead Calm..... ooooooohhhhhhh.

Neither, it doesn't mean him at all.

I know the fan fic reference, which is also an odd choice for someone complaining about objectification

@EggyBreads I hear you on the three decades of fancying Keanu. High five. It helps that he seems to be a thoroughly nice man.
