Long time lurker, first time poster (family funeral tomorrow and been on the gin for comfort, please don't judge!) In bed now and cannot sleep so thought you lovely lot could entertain me!

So my weird crush is Noel Fielding. Don't know what it is but he is GORGEOUS.

Friends do no agree - can you enlighten me with your weird crushes!?

@MrsToothyBitch Smile Thank you! And yes, I think you're quite right - James Dean would definitely have been a different kettle of fish (as it were!). He's a heartthrob for quite a lot of women, I know, just not my type Wink. RD is that! (It was The Winslow Boy that set me off when I was 18 -deeply, deeply old-fashioned!)

Richard Osman, Robert Peston. And have also just remembered I used to fancy Charlie Brooker back in the day.

I’d class those as slightly weird, but compared to the Farage and Piers Morgan revelations on this thread they seem positively mainstream.

As for Hucknall - no, no. No

Greg Davies and I have no idea why!

PenguinsOnParade · 18/02/2020 21:36

If we go for older actors etc then I don't think any of mine are weird other than the fact they're now dead (and some passing before I was born).

James Dean definitely
Marilyn Monroe
Marlon Brando
Tony Curtis (I was really upset when he died)
John Wayne
Paul Newman
Frank Sinatra

I think I was born in the wrong generation at times. Grin Anyone with piercing blue eyes gets me though!

Oliver Reed. Legendary sex on legs.

PunishmentSnart · 18/02/2020 22:26

Nooooo - so many of these are so not weird (with the exception of Mr Tumble).

Dancefloortragedy · 18/02/2020 22:29

Not strange but Leonard Cohen
Leonard Cohen and once again, Leonard Cohen. The sexiest man to have ever walked the planet. I would have jumped him with shameless enthusiasm right up until he croaked .
Robert Downey Jr
Foxy from that SAS programme.

LadySlipper11 · 18/02/2020 22:36

Richard Osman! So tall, so knowledgeable!

AgentCooper · 18/02/2020 22:53

@Dancefloortragedy absolutely nothing weird about Leonard Cohen. Oh my God he was beautiful. Especially in the 80s but yeah he still had it right up to the end. It’s funny how everyone thinks of him as being miserable when he was a stone cold fox with a gleam in his eye.

BlueBolts · 18/02/2020 23:16

Martin Clunes. Don't think anyone has mentioned him yet. Have seen him in interviews and on programmes with animals. He seems such a lovely genuine person that I can't help but be attracted to him.

WelcomeToTheMountaintop · 18/02/2020 23:52

Jason Watkins, but ONLY as Herrick the vampire. Creepy, compelling, mesmerising and I absolutely would.

And obviously, in common with a million middle aged women, Claes Bang. But he’s not remotely a weird crush, i think it only counts as a bit odd if you fancy Dracula. And I do. If id been there, the story would have been quite short, whenever he tries luring people out to him, id fall for the charm instantly and have invited him straight in.

I never grew out of my teenage goth phase. (Rummages for black lipstick)

TulipCat · 19/02/2020 01:31

Elis James

Lightline · 19/02/2020 01:59

Martin Freeman

SerenDippitty · 19/02/2020 02:56

Gregory Peck. Handsomest man ever to grace the silver screen.

Greggers2017 · 19/02/2020 03:17

Rupert Grint

My sister has a thing for Jacob Rees-Mogg 🤢🤑

MotherOfAllNameChanges · 19/02/2020 03:20

@PenguinsOnParade Paul Hollywood?

SirChing · 19/02/2020 06:59

I have had several sex dreams about Boris Johnson. And no amount of bleach in the shower will make me feel clean again. Less horrendous than the Trump sex dream though, where he kept his suit on.

My weird crushes are Mark Carney and Jose Mourinho. Ray Winston and (back in the day) Terry Venables.

Also really fancy the tall one with grey hair from the Hairy Bikers.

And Lee Mack, Jason Manford and Rhod Gilbert. And Alfie Boe.Blush

Alistair Campbell is sexy as fuck, but David Tennant is only sexy as the Doctor. Not my type otherwise.

Whoever said Justin Fletcher and Nigel Farage...
I really would prefer to shag BoJo and Trump Grin

EngagedAgain · 19/02/2020 07:31

Sadly I never have sex dreams about anyone, let alone my crushes. The thing about Mick Hucknall, it's not just about his looks, it's the voice, which rates up there as one of the best imo. Weird crushes aren't just about looks it's sex appeal. As far as I'm concerned he's got it. Sex on two legs! 😝😝

SirChing · 19/02/2020 08:04

@EngagedAgain Well, every pot has its lid......Grin I know what you mean about the whole package. My FWB is short, quite plain looking, and has the sexiest Scottish voice ever. He is sex on legs. It's that indefinible "something" people have. Otherwise people who aren't hugely good looking (so 80% of us normal people), would never get together with anyone.

MrsToothyBitch · 19/02/2020 08:21

Well since none of you have contested my original post, I'm keeping Nicolas Cage. Grin.

Oh frabjous day!

@SirChing that's funny because I came back on to post about Jimmy Somerville. He's not your fwb is he 😁 Anyhow I know he's gay but my goodness he's got that certain something 😋 He gets better with age, is in great shape, AND seems thoroughly down to earth. Got the dance moves and I love his style of clothes on him looks great.

@Toothy, he doesn't really do it for me, but there is something cute about Nicholas Cage. same sort of thing with Tom Hanks, I don't fancy him but he seems like a very nice man and he's a great actor.

Anyone mentioned Tom Cruise yet?

This thread was meant to be about weird crushes. I've yet to reveal mine, but I don't know whether to mention the real one or make one up!

SirChing · 19/02/2020 10:15

@EngagedAgain Ha, not Jimmy Somerville but looks like him. Most definitely NOT gay though 😈

And yes, we need to know your real crush. We're on an anonymous forum, just go for it. We won't laugh........much WinkGrin

Tattooedmama · 19/02/2020 10:20

Jon bon jovi, he really does age like wine 😍
