... Harry Styles?

I'm obsessed with his new single. I love the sparkly jumpsuit. I could even make my peace with the nail varnish.

Ok so he's 10 years my junior and I'm getting married next month but a girl can dream eh?

He looks sticky.

He was great in Carpool Karaoke with James Cordon! Worth watching on YouTube.

Oh, I say. *fans self

CockSpadget · 18/05/2022 21:32

Definitely not BU. He's beautiful. I also love the jumpsuit, and his music. However, as I'm in my late 40s I do feel a tad cougarish for thinking like that Blush

He's definitely got something as so many people seem to be under his spell.

I don't personally get it though. His whole showbiz persona seems a bit 'M&S does David Bowie'.

Haha this is brilliant, totally bang on.

He's handsome but not my cup of tea at all. I don't really get all the fuss to be honest.

LetitiaLeghorn · 18/05/2022 22:09

Oh dear. 🤮

He's a bit too try hard for me. He wears normal clothes when he snapped not working. But he puts on a tutu for photos. Feels like a lack of confidence to me.

Meh, my DP sings with a band from time to time and how he dresses to go to Asda is not generally how he dresses on stage.

(I was joking about the stickiness, I hasten to add)

Everyone needs a good crush to keep them amused.

I'm still trying to recover from Oscar Isaac in Moon Knight. Particularly when he's all battered and bruised...

sweatervest · 18/05/2022 22:13

Elon Musk 😍

hangrylady · 18/05/2022 22:15

He has 4 nipples! Good looking guy but I'm not sure I could get past that. I'm sure he'd be gutted that he couldn't have me 😂

OrderofMerlin1stClass · 18/05/2022 22:17

Are you actually me?! I'm also 10 years older and getting married next month. He's so handsome. But I mostly avoid him so I don't fancy him too much Grin

Elon Musk 😍

For me, Elon Musks money. 🤑

ElenaSt · 18/05/2022 22:26

Harry Styles is one of the most creepiest and repulsive individuals I have seen in awhile.

NashvilleQueen · 18/05/2022 22:29

Terrible tattoos. I mean terrible. Angry toddler with a sharpie bad.

ElenaSt · 18/05/2022 22:31

I'm trying to think of a least attractive male celebrity and can only think of Ed Sheeran, Lineker or that other twerp from One Direction, Liam something.

Classica · 18/05/2022 22:31

Elon Musk gives me the heebie jeebies. His big rectangular face that looks like it's been sculpted from cod.

MostTacticalNameChange · 18/05/2022 22:40

I think he a great celeb- genuine, treats people well, has great songs, good to his staff and his fans, engages with in-jokes etc.

But I do find some of his stuff he is lauded for a bit dated. He wears a feather boa and pearls and is lauded for being queer or whatever but Bolan, Bowie etc. did it yonks ago.

Fair play to him maximising on his assets and gimmicks. If I could, I would!

He does seem to be a really good actor, though...he was good in Dunkirk and has a new film coming out.

I am eternally in love with Joaquin Phoenix, though, so will leave you to your Harry.

PipeScatter · 18/05/2022 22:47

I had a really weird, romantic dream about Richard Osman the other night. He was so smart, thoughtful and lovely and had the most amazing huge, protective hands that he wrapped around me as we walked down Piccadilly in London and nosed around Waterstones...!

Wtf?! Where the hell did that come from?! I don't even watch any of his programmes! 😂

WiseRobin · 18/05/2022 22:56

Haven’t got a crush but an admiration on how well he’s done for himself plus the fact that he lived not far from me.

regularly drive past his old home, school and the place he once worked, not in a stalkerish way, it’s local to me. He has been back a few times and has been lovely to the locals.

wildasthewind · 18/05/2022 23:02

I'm 51 and find him gorgeous, i love the curly ruffled hair kind of look , same way as I fancied michael Hutchence in the 80s

EncantoDaisies · 18/05/2022 23:10

I just had to google his age, I didn't realise he was older than me!

But no, I don't see the appeal - I always though Louis and Zayn was the more attractive ones in 1D.

I think my heart will always belong to Chris Evans Grin
