Curt from Tears for Fears with David Byrne from Talking Heads a close second.

After that James Spader and then David Duchovny.

Oh one last one, Gray O'Brien from Casualty. Evidently I was into the emergency services as a young teen!

Closely followed by David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly in Labyrinth. Still got the Jennifer Connelly crush actually.

David Hirst, Sheffield Wednesday footballer. And I would still run away with him. As I repeatedly tell my family, I loved him and I still love him.
Also Keanu Reeves in Bill and Ted.

Harry Potter when I was 3. Apparently I didn’t stop talking about him and waited for him to knock on the door.

I would love to say it was David Bowie but sadly it was Woody from the Bay City Rollers.

This made me lol 😂
Mine were Eric from the Rollers and Lee from the Brotherhood of Man 😶‍🌫️

Davy Jones of The Monkees.

Atreyu 🥰 I was eleven so I thought the fact that he had his shirt open was scandalous.

Toolardy · 19/01/2025 16:41

Marc Bolan

CheesecakeOnTheLanai · 19/01/2025 16:41

Lee from 911, Robbie Williams and I loved Robin Hood (the Disney Fox version) - not that I actually fancied the fox, I just thought he was dashing 😅

Funkyslippers · 19/01/2025 16:41

George Michael but I also had a massive girl crush on Madonna, both around 1984

CitizenZ · 19/01/2025 16:41

Simon LeBon. I would buy any magazine that had a picture of him in it, even if the picture was the size of a stamp.

MenopauseSucks · 19/01/2025 16:48

John Taylor from Duran Duran.
I even have his autograph!

Saw them live two years ago & he's aging like fine wineWineSmile
