... this could be a really, really long list!

My best-soul-sister-friend-in-the-world and I have a 'boyfriend' list and a 'girlfriend' list that we regularly add to ... TOM HARDY is our number one at the moment ...

ORLA BRADY is Irish and Irish genes are from the gods!

To have a massive girly crush
LilacSpunkMonkey · 18/09/2015 18:36

I've never had a girl crush, not even as a teen.

I don't know what that says about me!

Cocolepew · 18/09/2015 18:58

Definitely Ruby Rose

RabbitDeNiro · 18/09/2015 19:43

Zooey Deschanel has always been my girl. I could stare at her face and listen to her sing all day. I rewind 500 days of Summer when she says "he was a rower" many, many times.

Fauchelevent · 18/09/2015 19:47

No thanks to Ruby Rose.

But yes to Dana Delany! I first saw her in two episodes of the L Word and decided she was truly divine! "come to bed with me, bette..." Also, Brody Dalle...

DarkNavyBlue · 18/09/2015 19:48

Jillian Michaels.

GhettoFabulous · 18/09/2015 19:52

Eliza Dushka still burns bright in my heart.

TwistyFyas · 18/09/2015 19:57

YY to Ruby Rose

zippyswife · 18/09/2015 20:02

Gillian Anderson
Debbie Harry
Helen mirren (in prime suspect)

Wearyheadedlady · 18/09/2015 20:03

Juliette Lewis. Coolest, ever. Maybe Noomi Rapace a close second.

Whereisyourblankie · 18/09/2015 20:04

Audrey Tatou or Claudia Cardinale.

IAmcuriousyellow · 18/09/2015 20:19

Helena Bonham-Carter for me

PorcupineNecktie · 18/09/2015 20:21

Gates McFadden! Especially in TNG.

Fauchelevent · 18/09/2015 20:24

Forgot my lifelong crush on Anne Hathaway.

Also really like Daryl Hannah. and oh, Lupita...

DontCallMeBaby · 18/09/2015 20:53

Hannah Fry. Yes, I have a crush on a hot, female mathematician. I don't quite know where that came from, but I saw her at the Cheltenham science festival in June, and then she was on telly last night talking about Ada Lovelace (who is kind of a historic girl crush tbh) and now I'm completely lost.

BriarRainbowshimmer · 18/09/2015 21:03

Is girl crush a heterosexual thing? Does it mean you think some female celebrity is hot despite being straight?

Anyway, I'm into adult women Wink

Raahh · 18/09/2015 21:13

Don't- I hear you. Grin The Ada Lovelace doc was great, and she was on a quiz the other night with Prof Brian Cox.

The combination of them both....Blush

Grin
SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 18/09/2015 21:31

I love Anne Reid, but certainly not in a girl crush way.

I'd have to say Kelly Brook. And I agree, there is definitely something about Ruby Rose.

I really like Sue Perkins too, but more in the way that I'd like to be friends with her than have sex with her.

LaurieMarlow · 18/09/2015 23:04

I'm in love with Giles Coren. First time I've admitted that in public. Can take or leave mostly leave his extended family.

My current girl crush is Samantha Barks. She's a goddess.

LeftMyRidingCropInTheMortuary · 18/09/2015 23:20

I would seriously shoot Zooey Deschanel.
Can't stand her voice. I have to change channels as soon as she comes on.

And she is Not Funny.

darksideofthemooncup · 19/09/2015 02:47

Gillian Anderson.

tiredbuthappyworkingmum · 19/09/2015 04:08

Emma Willis.... Those eyes..

leghoul · 19/09/2015 05:14

I have actually questioned if I really am straight due to having such crushes.
I can't work out if it's an appreciation-thing, or something more than that. Confused

Anyway - mine are
Gillian Anderson
Emma Thompson
an academic I know who is fantastic
Melissa McBridge (Carol from the walking dead)

and less, but a little bit..
Rene Russo
Amy Adams
Alexandra Breckenridge (also from the walking dead)...

I had the same type of thing as around a 6/7 year old child when I was a massive fan of a presenter on a tv show Hmm

leghoul · 19/09/2015 05:14

& Kristin Scott Thomas..

Whereyourtreasureis · 19/09/2015 12:42

Coffee and oranges
I think Cote de Pablo (Ziva) is hotter than Pauley Perette. Sometimes I can't decide whether I'd rather be manhandled by Tony or Ziva... Grin

I'd be more than happy with just Pauley and Gibbs
