We all have them. Our dirty little secrets. Those famous people who we know we should find repulsive but we just can’t help thinking they’re hot. Go ahead. Share. We won’t judge.

For me it’s:

David Hasselhoff. You have no idea how embarrassed I am by this.

Prince. You _really_ have no idea how embarrassed I am by this. and

Wakko Warner. Yes, I know he’s animated. Yes, I know he’s supposed to be a little kid (but in my defense he was per the back story created in the 30s so he’s legal). And I know how ridiculous it is, but I think he’s sexy.

I found Rafe Fiennes sexy _even in Schindler’s List_. At least jarbabyj will back me up.

I used to crush something fierce on Jan Michael Vincent during the Airwolf days.

And Richard Dean Anderson as MacGyver…yum!

And whoever played The Mountie on Due South.

I will. I will back you up. It really was the worst comment I ever made: “That one Nazi was hot”

:: hanging head in shame::

But, I also have a big crush on Lou Ferrigno…and come on, that’s embarrassing.

I’m surprised I’m admitting this, but here goes (takes deep breath):

Mike Stone, the lead singer, I believe, of _Flock of Seagulls_.

This is only recently, now. I was watching that VH1 special **Top 80 of the 80’s** and they had the video of _I Ran_ and I thought that he was cute. Of course I’m about nineteen years too late in this, but I don’t care.

I had my eye on Bill Bixby. “Don’t make me angry…you wouldn’t like it when I’m angry.” Grrrrrrr.

Why are you embarrassed by lusting after Lou Ferrigno? He’s muscular, handsome, with an endearing speech impediment stemming from his deafness (I think it’s adorable and a turn on.)

An embarrassing crush would be Richard Simmons or Carrot Top.

I guess the celebrity whose lustability most disturbs me is Conan O’Brian. He’s such a dork, and yet I’d do him in a New york second.

Gobear…he’s a big dumb oaf. And he was the HULK. I mean, come on.

I think he’s a sweetie. An f-ing sweetie and I want to hug him and love him and pet him and call him George, but it’s sort of weird.

It always freaks people out when I tell them the guy I find the most attractive on the planet is Montel Williams. He is just incredible.

Hey, at least you’re gay. I’m straight, and I find His Purple Highness kinda sexy.

My choice: [Kitty Bartholomew](http://www.hgtv.com/HGTV/show/0,1102,DEID_show_67,FF.html). Yeah, I know she’s old, but something about that white streak in her hair just gets me.

I’m a freak.

You’re suppossed to find Ralph Fiennes sexy in Schindler’s List. And you’re also supposed to feel sick about it. It’s one way the movie forces you to confront the fact that you’re morally bankrupt. (Not that you are, but it enhances Schindler’s heroim.)

Monica is a very pretty girl who can get chubby. No shame there.  
Cary Elwes is beautiful!  
Milla… now come on!  
Jeremy Irons is gorgeous and insanely sexy.  
\*\* Amp \*\* Delta Burke is a beautiful woman and an ex-beauty queen… what is the standard you normally have that you’re embarassed by that?

For me…  
My biggest shame was when I realized I thought Robby Benson was sexy. I’ve since recovered.
