Me? Bruce Dickinson, whats not to like? Might be over 20 years older than me but He could do anything he wanted! Martin Freeman -can’t quite say why but wouldn’t turn him down

My first ever crush was Patrick Swayze but i was about 5 then. I could't sleep one night and went downstairs to find my mum watching Dirty Dancing.

Nowadays it's Zak Bagans from Ghost Adventures or Sal Vulcano from Impractical Jokers.

Oh and the Winchester brothers from Supernatural are out of this world!!

Matt LeBlanc has aged in the best possible way. I liked him when he was in TV101 I think it was called. And now with grey hair, just lovely.

PhilSwagielka · 24/08/2019 14:23

Tommy Scott (the singer out of Space) can still get it.

Jarvis Cocker 🤩❤️😍🤩😍❤️🤩😍🤩

And if he wasn't dead (and gay) Jeremy Brett (as Sherlock Holmes ❤️🤩)

The80sweregreat · 24/08/2019 15:22

Defo Simon le Bon (although his been happily married for donkeys years and has beautiful children) so that feels bad!

Lifeover · 24/08/2019 19:42

@Retroraver93 omg now I can’t get that image out my head! Think I’ll have to go and pour bleach over my brain now!

Wonder whether he would stand there with his little postcard scribbling random notes like he does in the auction!

marciagetscreamed · 24/08/2019 22:48

Love joy

MrsFiddymont · 24/08/2019 22:50

Rocking....Scott gorham, good call!

Michael Brandon from Dempsey and Makepeace. Was gutted when I realised he’d got together with the gorgeous Glynis Barber in real life as I had to face up to punching above in my fantasies...

MollyWindley · 24/08/2019 23:10

Chris. Cornell...he got better and better looking as he aged, but then sadly he died.

But I am an older Mumsnetter and my first real crush was Paul Robeson!

Persea · 24/08/2019 23:12

In no particular order:
Keanu Reeves
Dave Grohl
Slash

sharpstick · 24/08/2019 23:15

Damon Albarn was all kinds of perfect to teenage me. I wouldn’t hesitate to this day.

David Beckham has aged very well too (just do the business and don’t speak Dave....!!)
Justin Timberlake also still has it.

I’d love to have seen how River Phoenix, Micheal Hutchence, Kurt Cobain and Marc Bolan would have aged, all exceptionally beautiful in their time.

backinblack1 · 24/08/2019 23:25

Bret Michaels 😘

birdandroses · 24/08/2019 23:27

@bionicnemonic, thanks for the AM picture, he has still got it!

INeedToGetHealthy · 24/08/2019 23:55

@Lifeover I'm with you on Bruce Dickinson! He's one of the only rockers that I liked who has not aged dismally. I used to love Sebastian Bach but time has not been kind to him........ Nor me 🤣

willowtree62 · 24/08/2019 23:59

Can't believe nobody has put Robbie Williams. Oh well at least I'll be at the front of the queue!

OvertiredandConfused · 25/08/2019 00:02

I’ve met, properly, Simon Le Bon and Tony Hadley in the last few years. Simon was very lovely and all that, but not sure he’s quite got what he had back in the day. And I find his gyrating on stage with teenagers fairly unattractive.

Tony Hadley was exactly like any one of my male friends. Again, really lovely bloke but, sadly, didn’t quite have what I thought he had when I was a teenager.

Bryan Adams on the other hand....

EachandEveryone · 25/08/2019 00:08

Phil oaky. Ive just got back from seeing them and he has it in spades.

1Morewineplease · 25/08/2019 00:10

Morten Harket ( lead singer of A-Ha)
Mike Oldfield

Glenn Frey Eagles. Just the sexiest man on earth. I'd shag

Colin Firth I'd marry.

powershowerforanhour · 25/08/2019 00:25

Charles Dance. He's old enough to be my dad, but have you heard that voice??

Patrick Stewart is old enough to be my granddad but I would then and I still would now. That voice, those eyes!!

Crinklesmile · 25/08/2019 00:26

Mike Patton
Dave Grohl

Val Kilmer tho.....defo would not do
