Boy George, George Michael, Adam Ant, all incredibly pretty.

@x2boys I remember my first significant ex styled himself on Jon Bon Jovi. We met in a rock club and I was just captivated by him. We ended up living together and sharing eye liner and hair styling stuff! Didn't work out for the best because he was actually an abusive narcissist but he was beautiful (and good at dtd Blush)

Four pages and nobody has mentioned Dave Gahan? I'm honestly disappointed with you all.

Also, Eddie Van Halen was a complete babe during the 1980s.

My mum's 70s popstars were prettier I think. David Bowie,David Essex, Marc Bolan

I used to work in retail in the late 70s and David Essex came into the shop I worked in. He had such fantastic blue eyes, you could tell what colour they were from 50 paces.

He looked so familiar, I thought he was someone I knew. I was trying to work out where I knew him from when I realised everyone else was staring at him too.

I don't think Eddie Van Halen was at all pretty. David Gahan is okay. I think we have very different tastes.

Boy George - just lots of make up and odd looking rather than pretty or attractive. George Michael was pudgy and unnattractive too, IMO.

But Adam Ant .... swoon.

angieloumc · 01/06/2019 14:09

Nick Heyward, wow, he was gorgeous.
I can remember the first time Haircut 100 were on TOTP singing Favourite Shirt. The next day at school all the girls were raving about 'that fit lad'!
He's still very attractive now as well.

Glittertwins · 01/06/2019 14:12

Definitely Seb Bach, Nikki Sixx, Duff & Slash. Bret Michaels too 😉

Fruityb · 01/06/2019 14:31

Adam Ant in that video is lush! Puss in boots was my favourite!

Nick Heyward is still gorgeous now; agreed!

Cinders12345 · 01/06/2019 15:31

I just Googled Nick Heyward now and have fallen in love all over again!

abbiecloud · 01/06/2019 22:08
