[In this thead, people described their age appropriate crush.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=830754) Do you have a crush on a celebrity considerably older than you? (In the spirit of the previous thread, anything over five years older than you counts as “considerably older”.)  
I’m 42. There are many celebrities in their sixties I think are hot, but there are a couple in their seventies I’d totally bed if I had the chance:

Raquel Welch is an android; there’s no other possible explanation.

I’m 44, so this question is too easy. There are a lot of 50ish female celebs who are sexy as hell. I remember back in college arguing with a friend that Julia Louis Dreyfus was way better looking than Cindy Crawford, and she still is at 56. Funny and dayummm hot! Halle Berry is also unreasonably attractive at 50. Really, it’s just unfair. And Christie Brinkley still has fabulous legs at 63.

Another vote for Christie Brinkley (63).

Robert Plant formerly of Led Zeppelin. He’s only 8 years older than me and I’ve caught him in concert a number of times, thrice with Led Zeppelin.

He was a beautiful young feller. Now he looks like Ian Anderson’s Aqualung character. I’d still do him.

I’d totally forgotten Mirren was in her seventies, definately add her to the list.

Michelle Pfeiffer is over ten years older than me. I think the only work she has had done is dyeing her hair, and she looks pretty darn good to me.

At my age, the women too old for me are nearly fossilized.
