Who was your celebrity crush when you were growing up?

[Ellabella989]

Mine was the Hanson brothers (wtf was i thinking?!)

@Rainbowknickers I met his brother at a festival and he added me on Facebook. I used to get all "oooh, Chesney wrote that!" about his wall. I have never been into Chesney Hawkes in the slightest

@Yogurtcoveredricecake Saw Paul Nichols once is real life. He is surprisingly shorter than you would expect. Cracking smile though

In primary school, Shaun Cassidy, the girls from Abba.
Then Debbie Harry.
Billy Idol
Prince
Mel Gibson, I loved him.
Al Pacino in Serpico.
Jacko from Brush Strokes

I liked Hanson too ohhhhhgooodwhhhyyyyyyyyy. I got invited to a private gig they were playing a few years back and was like no thanks but 12 year old me would have LOVED it

I wanted to book tickets to see them back in feb but the baby was too little and still bf a lot I was so upset 🤣

David Soul
David Cassidy
Plus I had a thing for Christopher Plummer (but only the Sound of Music Christopher Plummer).

I'm surprised how many posters want to get their mmmmmm bop on.

Honestly ! Look at their Instagram they seem to have it all in their favour, extremely good looking (well one maybe not as much but he looks like he’s good fun), they run some kind of charity/food bank, lots of kids/look like they are all happy etc
And Taylor.....did I mention Taylor he is actually beautiful

The guy from the Athena poster with the baby.

Wibi Soerjadi.

Rod Stewart
Marc Bolan so shocked at his early death
Brian Ferry
George Michael
Still love em and listen to their music

I’m chronological order:

Philip Schofield
Jason Donovan
Joey Lawrence
Ryan Giggs

They were the main ones but I pretty much fancied everyone when I was in my teens.

Kurt Cobain.

Still somewhat obsessed.....

Pierce Brosnan.

Followed by Roger Taylor of Duran Duran, then George Micheal.

Christian Slater

Gary Cady from Brass. Just googled him and still would tbh

Johnny Wilkinson
Ben McKenzie aka Ryan on the OC
Duncan James
Charlie in Busted
Johnny Borrell from Razorlight

Nick Kamen

Oh yes and Michael Praed - he was gorgeous!,

Also an Italian footballer who played in Italia 90 called Giuseppe Gianninni!

Illya Kuryakin - The Man from UNCLE. I would like to point out that this was the repeats in the 90s.

I normally preferred characters in books, though. Patrick Pennington, Mr. Rochester. I’m not sure they provide models for healthy relationships, but gosh, they were sexy.

Sean Bean (in Sharpe)
Rufus Sewell (in Middlemarch)
Russell Crowe (in Gladiator)

Basically, I was interested unless they were in historical dress...

Another Corey Haim fan here. Poor man.

George Michael friend has since made me rewatch the Faith video while saying "HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW??"

Donnie Wahlberg NKOTB
Judd Nelson (still love The Breakfast Club)
Christian Slater
Keanu Reeves

God I feel old having to think back that far

David Soul

Keanu (I still go all funny when I think of him) and Luke Perry 😢
