bro do you even shoedini?

Lead woman in the last movie I saw.

Maybe the most consistent was Hermione Granger, I say Hermione instead of Emma Watson bc I never saw her as anything else and had a crush on the book character too.

The other option might be Anna Kendrick.

Winona Ryder
Heathers changed my world in more ways than one.

The painfully obvious: Jennifer Connelly.

First saw her in Labyrinth when I was like 12, and she awoke something in me, and that continued when I saw The Rocketeer when my parents rented them from Blockbuster. Later when I was a little older she solidified that awakening when I saw Career Opportunities rented from Blockbuster myself once old enough to have my own account.

Diana Rigg, but only because I was a big Bond nerd in high school.
Catherine Bach from Dukes of Hazard 1979-1985
Oh man, yeah. One of mine for sure.
Erin Gray from Buck Rogers in the 25th Century!

Oh man! Erin Grey in Buck Rogers… Still has an effect!
Alyssa Milano. She could have been my boss.
Erika Eleniak and Tiffany Amber Thiessen.
Christina Ricci
Ricci circa Buffalo 66 was peak. Then she got all Hollywood skinny and she lost all appeal to me.
Scott Baio in the Happy Days era.
Mine was seeing Cameron Diaz in the Mask when I was like 6. Her walking into that bank for the first time completely changed me.
Queen Latifah in Chicago
Paul Rudd circa Clueless
Giving away my age a bit but Jane Fonda.
I don’t know, some things are timeless.
Still quite attractive.
Alyssa Milano
Yvonne Craig
Eartha Kitt
Julie Newmar
Happy to be the first one to say Avril Lavegne
Janeane Garofalo circa Reality Bites.
She’s even better in Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion.
Jennifer Connelly in The Rochester
Christina Ricci
Astronema from Power Rangers. 😁
Jonathan Taylor Thomas.
Danielle Fischel and Rider Strong (Topanga and Shawn from Boy Meets World). Trying to understand how I could be attracted to both led to some important realisations as a young teen…
Man…what 12 year old me would have given to explore Alex Mack’s secret world…

Anyone remember: Kristy McNichol?

My boyhood dream.

Candice Bergen I’m the Wind and the Lion
Candice Bergen as Murphy Brown. I think halfway I wanted her and halfway I wanted to be her.
Adrian Paul in The Highlander TV Series.
  • Hudson Leick (Calisto on Xena)
  • David Yost (Billy on MMPR)
  • Toni Braxton (that Unbreak My Heart video? Come on!)
  • Tyson Beckford (speaking of that video!)
  • John Henson (Talk Soup)
  • Tiffani-Amber Thiessen
  • Siddig El Fadil
  • And of course Terry Farrell
Lindsay Wagner, the bionic woman. I had no fear of strong women.

Valerie Bertinelli

Blondie

Linda Hamilton circa Beauty and the Beast

Michelle Pfeiffer circa Ladyhawke

Eddie Vedder circa Ten. Sigh…
The earliest, specific crush on a celebrity I can remember was Lindsay Lohan in as early as 2003, but maybe 2005 or so. I was a middle schooler.
Lilu Multipass & Ruby Rhod

Fran Fine from The Nanny.

It was one of those ‘I don’t know if I fancy her or want to be her’ type crushes and was basically the foundation for my love of fashion and personal style, and my predilection for annoying voices.

Also my mother hated her, which made me like her even more.
