Tom Cruise - no

Slightly older than teen:
Mel Gibson - no (although a different brain in the same body, yes)
Harrison Ford - yes

Once upon a time, Johnny Depp.

Now? Absolutely no fricking way. Not least because of his lovely record of domestic violence...

SciFiFan2015 · 08/01/2018 14:06

1989 - Patrick Stewart (Captain Picard) I was a mere 12, he was 49.
2018 - Patrick Stewart yes (though it might kill him!) he's 78 this year.

His wife is younger than me...

Morten Harket, in the 80s and now!

Same goes for Bruce Willis.

Barabajagal · 08/01/2018 14:20

Sam Elliott then and now. Best white hair ever.

PutYourBracesTogether · 08/01/2018 14:21

The queue for Keanu is behind me.
Kiefer Suntherland.... probably still would

Trinity66 · 08/01/2018 14:21

Christian Slater - He still looks really good but I did hear he spent 59 days in prison after assaulting his girlfriend at the time a good few years ago, that's a big turn off :/

Kurt Cobain - Well he's dead now so no lol

Eddie Vedder - Yes, Yes, Yes (if I wasn't married of course Wink )

FannyFifer · 08/01/2018 14:25

David Duchovny then & even more so now.

RhiannonOHara · 08/01/2018 14:29

My first real crush was beautiful River Phoenix. If he were still with us Sad I totally still would. He used to take my breath away.

Also Chris Packham. Was a bit too young at the time to understand why I found him so fascinating but am ancient plenty old enough now Grin.

Royalcoronation · 08/01/2018 14:32

Keifer Sutherland

Totalyl still would

Trinity66 · 08/01/2018 14:33

RhiannonOHara

Oh yeah totally agree, he was perfect :(

RhiannonOHara · 08/01/2018 14:39

Trinity.

NoFuckingRoomOnMyBroom · 08/01/2018 15:07

Keanu was my massive crush-he is still looking good now as is Christian Slater-my other teenage obsession Blush

SilverySurfer · 08/01/2018 15:28

My teen crush was Adam Faith. I would still, if he was still alive Sad

AnnabelleLecter · 08/01/2018 15:45

Timothy Dalton
Bruce Dickinson

Yes to both

Notreallyarsed · 08/01/2018 15:46

Sean Moore (drummer from the Manic Street Preachers) circa 1994.

Not so much now.

Oysterbabe · 08/01/2018 15:48

I see they've been mentioned already but Jon Bon Jovi and Jason Donovan. Yes and yes.

FoofFighter · 08/01/2018 15:52

Rick Astley, I think he's aged well, yep!

londonpia · 08/01/2018 15:54

Christian Slater- then and now!
Corey Haim- sadly no longer with us. Poor guy, looking back now, he was so tortured

Trillis · 08/01/2018 16:00

Blimey - there's quite a queue for Keanu - I thought it was just me! But I have to agree with romany4 - Roger Taylor was my absolute schoolgirl crush.

Jayne35 · 08/01/2018 16:05

Late 80s - Kiefer Sutherland (Loved Lost Boys) and Marti Pellow (Wet, Wet, Wet)
Now - Definitely still would with both Grin

Strangely I used to quite like Sean Connery, As he looked in The Rock not as Bond but I think he is probably a bit too old for me now! so no on that one.

AccioWine · 08/01/2018 16:06

Ethan Hawke and yes please!
