I mean sort of semi-obsessed?
I have this thing for Claire Forlani. I get all her movies (which tells you right there what state of mind I’m in when I’m buying them - they’re her movies). Even though a lot of them are shite.
I’ve convinced myself that the missus looks a lot like her. Oh commoffit, she does, I tell my friends. She has brown hair, green eyes and slightly pale skin with a “sweet Mediterranean” look about her (my wife has Italian blood in her). Needless to say, my friends believe it’s wishful thinking.
But in any case, I sort of am hooked on Claire. I mean sort of coz in the end, I love my wife far too much to really become one of those obsessed losers who spends all his time downloading movies/pics of her off the net.
But seriously, I think if I was single I might be one of those guys. I just think for me that Claire is the closest thing to physical perfection a woman can get (the PERFECT is reserved for my honey :)).
Do you have any MAJOR crushes like this on certain stars/starlets?
Well… Johnny Depp. I mean, the guy is a terrific amazing actor, he makes shitty movies watchable all on his own, and he turns good movies into amazing movies, and what he does to amazing movies cannot be described in any human language living or dead.
He also seems a really nice down-to-Earth kind of guy, who does little movies just because he likes the script or the director or the writer or whatever, and appeared on The Fast Show because he liked the show (so apparently we have the same sense of humour too; can’t hurt).
Plus, he’s fucking gorgeous. He’s hotter than the center of a supernova that just won the Hottest Supernova award for the third year in a row. I can’t really decide if he is the hottest or the second hottest human being alive, but I’m damn sure he’s in the top two.
Hm. Well, I’ll agree with you on Johnny Depp. (What can I say – there’s something about a man who’s not afraid to wear eyeliner. Except for Bob Dylan, of course.)
In all fairness, it’s difficult to see exactly how hot Peter is in a still photograph. I didn’t fall for him until I saw him on a talk show. The way he moves, the way he talks, that gorgeous smile of his, the sound of his voice… not to mention that he has a divine gift of song and is really bright, kind and interesting.
I have had a crush on Keir Dullea ever since I saw him in David and Lisa in the early 1960s. A few years ago I finally got to meet him. He was every bit as intelligent and charming as I had hoped. A good hugger, too.
I’m rather fond of Alyson Hannigan, especially from the earlier years of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That show showed that she could both be a good girl and a bad girl (hellooooo Alternate-Universe-Vampire Willow )
Other than that, I have a crush on Audrey Hepburn Circa The 1960’s. I maintain to my friends that she is the Most Beautiful Woman On Earth. Something about the eyes. And the eyebrows.
I used to have a huge crush over Patricia Tallman, who played Lyta Alexander on Babylon 5 (especially in the 4th season, where she started wearing lots of leather for some reason.
Lessee… other than that, I tend to obsess over Catharine Zeta Jones and Salma Hayak whenever I happen to see them on screen.
Since we’re admitting quilty secrets…I once went through a Cybill Sheperd phase when she was doing Moonlighting. I don’t usually go for blondes. I couldn’t explain it then I can’t explain it now. It did entertain my coworkers though.
I would say Alysson Hannigan but I am infatuated with Willow Rosenberg, her BtVS character, and honestly don’t care much about the actress one way or the other.
I’m definitely infatuated with Audrey Tautou though. She singlehandedly made me appreciate foreign films after years of antipathy towards them.
I’m pretty sweet on Alyson/Willow as well, even though I’m only three seasons into Buffy so far. I love the character, and Alyson is absolutely gorgeous, in that perfectly understated way. She’s a super-cute redhead, and her character is sweet, funny, brilliant, loyal, quirky, and even happens to be Jewish! Can’t go wrong with any of that. As an alternate-reality bonus, the leather-clad vampire Willow from “Wish” and “Doppelgangland” was beyond sexy.
However, even though she’s in them and I know she has some scandalous dialogue, I can’t bring myself to watch the American Pie movies. They just seem too stupid and annoying, and I hate the emphasis that the “good-looking teen sex comedy” subgenre places on losing one’s virginity and having sex as the most important thing in the world EVAR.
