to think grown women, anyone over the age of about 16 actually, expressing lustful thoughts for actors/celebrities or men in the public eye, are just ridiculous?

How can you fancy someone you have never even met?

Surely that is the realm of tweenagers, teenagers or stalkers!

I do find it very hard to stomach when supposedly intelligent adult women go all silly over some sleb or other, whether its Jeremy Paxman or Michael Buble or Robert Pattinson or Brian Cox ... or whoever.

I think if you did actually meet a lot of them, you wouldn't fancy them anymore!

I know for my crushes, a lot of it stems from their on screen characters. I think in real life their personalities wouldn't be half as attractive.

YABU

I go all silly over Richard Armitage. I don't think it's wrong to have a crush on a celeb, I would think it wrong to have a crush on a work colleague or someone else you know if you were married or attached though.
