I’m working my way through **The Sopranos** again and am finding myself very attracted to the actress that plays Big Pussy’s wife, Angie Bompensiera. Her name is Toni Kalem, born 1950. I was born in 1957. ---

Not having read the thread, I’m just going to assume Christopher Lee is everyone’s #1 crush (regardless of gender or sexuality), because honestly… the man _is_ an evil overlord. 😃 > [@Pandoranoid](#): > > No one ever gets my Christopher Walken crush, and I don’t find that too odd. What, seriously? What kind of weirdos do you hang around with? He’s awesome! Just that voice… ---

30 here. Roy Lonnen is pushing 70, IIRC, and I can’t really see myself kicking him out of bed. ---

I don’t know if she’s the oldest, but Kristin Davis is the only over-40 person I can remember being attracted to recently. Particularly the way she acted on [The Late Late Show](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW8AOmNHbrE). She was even great after [Joel McHale](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P86YJvsxTBI) came out. I started looking for everything she was in. Oh, and she’s 45. [sub]all links are videos[/sub] ---

Line me up for David Bowie (63) and Alan Rickman (64). I’ve been fortunate enough to meet both in person (albeit five and almost nine years ago, respectively) and they did not disappoint, especially Bowie’s charming smile. Homina homina. I’m 40. ---

I came in to mention Christopher Walken (67), Sting (58) and Alec Baldwin (52), but after reading the rest of the thread I’m gonna have to throw in David Bowie (63) and Rick Springfield (60) as well. \*\*Yum. \*\*No big secret to anyone that I love older men- I’m 24. ---
