My real life school crush... Yes 😕

Celeb one was all of take that I think, so... No

ViciousJackdaw · 12/12/2020 22:24

John Barnes. Ooh, he was bloody lovely back in the day. Let's just say he's not quite so athletic looking these days.

CardoMondo · 12/12/2020 22:27

Axl Rose - yep I still would

YesPleaseMary · 12/12/2020 22:27

Jon Bon Jovi, hell yeah

CaptainVanesHair · 12/12/2020 22:29

Mine was Seth Green. Still have a soft spot but no... two years later crush was James McAvoy and I absolutely would.

RosesAndHellebores · 12/12/2020 22:32

My heartthrob at 12 was 13.4 hands and called Spero. I loved him very much.

MrsMouse03 · 12/12/2020 22:34

Not sure it was when I was 12 but James Martin or Matt Tebutt , oh yeah x

SionnachRua · 12/12/2020 22:37

Justin Timberlake. Still would tbh.

Drake Bell - eh not so much! Josh Peck on the other hand...

tobee · 12/12/2020 22:37

Can't remember who I fancied that was a celebrity when I was 12. Probably tonnes of them. Could have been Dave Gahan, Daryl Hall or David Byrne. Or Nigel Havers or Robert Powell. I could go on....

The boy from rl who I fancied at 12 probably not. I later learned that he thought spaghetti bolognese was too exotic for him which doesn't really sound up my street.

WhySoSensitive · 12/12/2020 22:38

I think mine was Aaron Carter? Pretty sure he’s trying his hand at porn now...

Leonardo DiCaprio was the other so yassssss

LittleMissBrainy · 12/12/2020 22:40

At 12 I had moved on from Phillip Schofield in the Broom cupboard, to Michael J Fox in BTTF (I am still a sucker for a skate boarding man though!) to the (in my 12 year old mind) far more sophisticated visual aspect of Matt Dillon, after watching The Outsiders. I thought I could heal all Dallas Winston's pain! 😍

Anyway, Matt Dillon is definitely still hot and on 'my list'. Not sure he be interested in a plump, average English mum though!! 😂

Matt Tebutt is delicious. He has a twinkle in his eye.
Theromanempire · 12/12/2020 22:42

Martin Kemp...and definitely still would! That man has aged SO well!!

Lollyneenah · 12/12/2020 22:42

Damian alban. Met him in the flesh 4 years ago and turned into quivering wreck. Yes please!

Theromanempire · 12/12/2020 22:43

Yes he does...love watching Saturday Kitchen, it is my guilty pleasure Wink

Theromanempire · 12/12/2020 22:44

That was about Matt Tebbuts Grin

Jocasta2018 · 12/12/2020 22:47

John Taylor.
He did some online bass tutorials on the Duran Duran YouTube channel which were great fun - his obvious delight & enthusiasm in showing us how the songs were structured.
He's aged well & still makes me go weak at the knees!

Riddikulussness · 12/12/2020 22:49

Absolutely yes!!!
Morton Harket is still bloody gorgeous. I’ve seen A-ha live a few times in recent years, he still wears clingy white t shirts and my god he’s fit 😍😜

ImAKaren · 12/12/2020 22:50

@MonaLisaPiles

Morten Harket

Yes please

Morten was mine too! Now I fancy Mags a lot more. He's aged better I think and looks very rugged. No one fancied Pal did they?
midlifespices · 12/12/2020 22:51

@jellyfrizz

Keanu - still would.
I came on to say exactly this
thecakebadge · 12/12/2020 22:54

Mine was Michael Owen. The money would be nice but he is dull as dishwater so I think I’ll stick with DH.

Mydogdoesntlisten · 12/12/2020 22:55

Yes, another vote here for Keanu. Still comes a very very close second to DHSmile

Harrietsferrets · 12/12/2020 22:55

If mine was still alive then - yes
Can loose hours watching him on youtube
Rudolph Nureyev

Ha ha I said this very thing to my dh. Mags was always pretty gorgeous too tbh. Poor Pal 😆

Gary Linekar
John Taylor
Mike Smith (Late, late breakfast show-RIP).

Gary is ok (possibly) although he's been about and that boyish charm has left the building now.
