I know that there’s a lot of threads on this topic, but I’m looking for crushes you might have developed in about a year’s time. Mine is **Kate Micucci** : > **[Kate Micucci - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2177528/)** > > Kate Micucci. Actress: When in Rome. Kate Micucci was born in New Jersey and spent most of her school years in Pennsylvania. As a kid, she focused on playing outside in the woods and playing classical piano. In college, she majored in art, focusing... She’s been around for a while, but she just appeared on my radar after I heard she would voice Webby in the new ‘Ducktales’ cartoon TV series. I knew of ‘Garfunkle and Oats’, the band she’s in with Riki Lindhome who’s also a cutie, but never paid much attention until recently. She’s super-funny and very talented. She’s so damn perfect. _sigh_ Anyone else want to chime in with there relatively new crushes? ---

Melissa Benoist. She was never on my radar until _Supergirl_. Now I’m trying to figure out who I’m a bigger fan of: Supergirl or Melissa. ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Melissa Benoist. She was never on my radar until _Supergirl_. Now I’m trying to figure out who I’m a bigger fan of: Supergirl or Melissa. Oh gosh… I don’t watch the show, but I hear ya. She’s Super Cute! ---

Still Christina Hendricks and Sofia Vergara. ---

I know it’s early in the thread, but I’d like to formally nominate Marissa Tomei for the lifetime achievement award. Otherwise, I’ll say Anna Kendrick. She was great on the Nerdist recently and made a fan out of me. ---

I have a crush on Alexis Bledel’s stunning blue eyes. ---

[Evan Rachel Wood](http://www.speakerscorner.me/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/evan_rachel_wood_15.jpg)…but only in character as Delores Abernathy (an AI robot) from Westworld. What straight guy wouldn’t like to commit egregious acts with a beautiful woman (like forgetting our anniversary, or leaving the toilet seat up) with the opportunity to wipe her memory banks clean and implant new memories of being a perfect mate? ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Melissa Benoist. She was never on my radar until _Supergirl_. Now I’m trying to figure out who I’m a bigger fan of: Supergirl or Melissa. An excellent choice. Also Lindy Booth from _The Librarians_. ---

Leah Remini. She’s a pretty gal, but it more about her personality than it is her looks. Used to crush on her in the King of Queen days. Said crush has since been rekindled watching her Aftermath series. ---

Ruth Negga. Still, but Chrissy Tiegen looks like she’d be a whole lot of fun to me involved with. ---

I can’t say I have one recently formed. One that has been with me a while is Jewel Staite. She is, as far as I am concerned, about the perfect example of the human female. And the woman just keeps getting more appealing with time. What the hell is up with that? ---

Kate Mara…just started watching House of Cards. I’m really going to like it. ---

[Tom Ellis](http://parade.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Lucifer_SC5_0026.jpg) from Lucifer. He’s gorgeous, he’s got an accent to die for, and he dresses great. Plus, he seems like a nice guy with a great sense of humor. ---

Kaitlyn Dever … one of the daughter’s on Last Man Standing. ---

[Adelaide\* Clemens](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2564938/). Tawney from _Rectify_. (Two more episodes to watch and then …?) - With a name like that she has to be Australian. But she’s from Queensland and plays a Southerner. ---

I’ve always crushed on [Kristin Chenoweth](https://s3.amazonaws.com/busites_www/officialkristinchenoweth/pages/accent-photos-discography.jpg), and she’s age-appropriate for me! ---

I just started watching _Man in the High Castle_, and I find Alexa Davalos breathtaking. Like the rebirth of Greta Garbo. ---

Stephen Colbert. The more I learn about him (as himself, not as the character) holy hell, what a dude. And handsome as heck. ---

Mine is [Amy Adams](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0010736/?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm). Seriously talented and seriously good looking. She’s been in quite a lot of things, some of which I’ve seen, but she didn’t hit my radar until I saw her in Arrival and Trouble With The Curve.
