Your Celebrity Crushes: As A Kid, Teenager And Today

Kid: Elizabeth Sladen. There’s a Dr. Who story where she wears this tight bodice and pants throughout that probably inspired the first tinglings in my pubescent nethers.

Teen: Samantha Fox

Adult: Salma Hayek

As a kid: No one.

Teenager: Jimmy Page

Late Teen/Young adult: Johnny Rotten and Yassir Arafat

Adult: Not sure. There was one crush but he wasn’t exactly a celebrity and anyway he was dead.

Now there’s some imaginary pron I don’t need to see. :eek:

Teen: John Cusack
Now: Alice Cooper

Ooh, I forgot about Alice. Yeah, I kind of have a crush on him too. :slight_smile:

I guess I should add Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Of course one of us would have to be lobotomized, so I wouldn’t come in contact with the actual man.

Oh, and I also forgot Leonard Nimoy . . . unconditionally.

I forgot about Erin, the only possible reason to watch Buck Rogers.

You know I look just like him, right?

As a kid, the only girl I had a crush on was Becky Thatcher in Tom Sawyer. No, not the movie, the Mark Twain novel.

As a teenager, I secretly adored Deborah Walley (Beach movies), Sally Field (The Flying Nun), Yvonne Craig (TV’s Batgirl plus a couple of Elvis movies), and Diana Rigg (Emma Peel).

As an adult, I crushed on Valerie Bertinelli, Marie Osmond, and that girl from the Rosetta Stone commercial.
