Movie Star Crushes

[poky]

Heh. OK, I already mentioned Christopher Reeve in the other thread.

I suppose since so many of you admitted to Donnie Osmond, I can admit to my childhood crush on Jimmy Osmond.

Others, in no particular order:
Jon Cryer
James Spader
Andrew McCarthy
John Cusack (Better Off Dead's one of my all-time favorite movies ever)
Daniel Abineri (he played the kid on "Bless Me, Father", an old Brit-com - so FREAKING adorable in that!)
Ewan McGregor (anyone seen the Nature he did about Polar Bears from Churchill? - very very cool)
Kenneth Branaugh
Patrick Stewart (I still have "the quest for king arthur" on my TiVo from *2 years ago*, because it's two hours of him narrating about the arthurian legend - I put it on in the background when I'm working on other things - he's not IN the show, but oh, that voice...)
Hugh Laurie (and I was a huge fan *way* before House - I'm a total britcom junkie, and have loved him forever)
Alan Rickman (mostly the voice, but oh MAN, what a voice...*melt*)

I'm going to stop now before I embarrass myself any further..

No one liked Scott Baio?

I've had a big crush on Harry Connick, Jr. for many, many years. However, his current hairdo doesn't do him any justice. (The front of his hair just flops around weirdly.)

The front of his hair just flops around weirdly.

I'm glad that I'm not the only woman to notice this! It's just such weird hair!

Colin Firth
Andrew Dan-Jumbo

Yes! Collin Firth! And Anderson Cooper and the weather guy, Rob Marciano.

[Sheherezade]

Colin Firth!! Love those bad boys!

If thread continues, I'll never get anything done.

You know that I love you all, but I just can't get on board with all these skinny English guys: Ewan McGregor, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Hugh Grant, Jude Law. (Caveat: Sting, although skinny and English is HOT because he writes unbelievable songs and I hear he is tantric. In fact, I think that "Roxanne" should hereforth be changed to "Kelly". Although I have to admit that if he were to sing this to me, I would hang up my tarty ways and become his lover).

I like a man to have a little meat on his bones. If we're gonna do the whole continental thing, how 'bout Colin Firth, Liam Neeson, and Pierce Brosnan? As far as good Yanks, I would have to include Mel Gibson (former Aussie come Yank), Chris O'Donnell, Matt Damon, and Mark Wahlberg.

If I were ever to switch hit, I'd have to go for Charlize Theron, Tea Leoni, Salma Hayek, or Eva Longoria. They all stylish, gorgeous and seem like they'd be fun to hang out with.

But this is just off the top of my head. I haven't spent too much time thinking about this or anything.

No reason to be embarrassed! Tea Leoni would be on my list too!

Am I the only one that thought Michael Jackson was cute back in the day (you know, when he was still a black man)? I'm almost embarassed to admit that--but I had the poster where he was dressed in yellow with a bowtie and thought he was the most gorgeous thing ever. (I guess my panache for darker skinned men started at a young age .)
I also liked Antonio Banderas (before he hooked up with MG) and still have a thing for Eddie Vedder. My newest crush is Heath Ledger. I know he is younger than me, but that boy is hotter than fire!
And Kelly, if I were to switch teams, I'm pretty much with you--I have always admired Salma Hayek, and Tea Leoni (loved her on Naked Truth), and I think Eva Longoria is gorgeous as well. I also think the girl who was on Love Actually, Pirates of the Carribean, and Bend it Like Beckham (can't remember her name) is one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen.

On a side note, my dh has noticed that all my crushes have long hair--kind of odd since my dh is bald!

[alison]

Hmm... I can't agree with you on Keira Knightley. I thought she was pretty, but couldn't figure out what was bothering me about her until I realized...: she's got a bad underbite.

And I'd have to say Salma Hayek over Eva Longoria, because... she's got enormous breasts.

[alison]

Did I just scare everyone off!

...I just can't get on board with all these skinny English guys...

I too am not into skinny boys (except Jonathan Rhys Meyers - his accent and crooked smile). It's my calf complex - a guy's calves can't be smaller than mine. I think the same goes for the girls... Eva Longoria and Keira Knightly, while a beauties, are too skinny. I've had my share of girl crushes, but I'd switch hit for Sherryl Crow. As for the boys, Taye Diggs gives me chills.

totally amused by this but too tired to really think it through. I'll just say that Sting is MINE, has been since I was 10, and I'll throw down with ANY of you over it.

my early crushes involved pasty British guys who wore eyeliner (um Duran Duran), and I'm still a sucker for an accent. I thing Hugh Grant is adorable, among others ...

I've got to get these children to nap!!

she's got a bad underbite

I can't find a decent picture showing this ... she has beautiful teeth from everything I have seen before.
