GTKY: Celebrity Crushes -- Then and Now

Ziegeficker

A somewhat recent thread on another board got me thinking....

Who was your celebrity crush (or crushes) growing up?

Who is your celebrity crush (or crushes)* now?

 

* I know it's goofy to call someone a crush into adulthood, but bear with me for alliteration's sake :-P

Growing up, I had a huge crush on JTT.  And that transitioned into the even more embarrassing crush on Taylor Hanson (wtf...).

Currently, I have a huge intellectual crush on Neil deGrasse Tyson and Jon Stewart.  But Henry Cavill is pretty hot.  Which I didn't realize until after I chose our baby's name, and now that's creepy.

This was my BFF's crush growing up.  And it's still her crush today.  

I make jokes that she manages to always pick the winners who really stick it out over time, whereas I pick guys who apparently disappear into obscurity.  Her other crush was Leonardo DiCaprio.

I guess Taylor Hanson is still making music and has like a million babies now, so there's that...

Growing up, I had a huge crush on JTT.

I was even in his fan club :X

I used to write him letters (like, BY HAND) and decorate the envelopes and mail them off in hopes that he would some day reply.

He didn't.

I wonder what happens to all of those letters?  Because I bet they would be pretty hilarious to read.

My mom drove me and my cousin all the way from Fort Worth, TX to Golden, CO to see them perform.  People laugh at me for that, but how can one regret or laugh at the chance to see a concert (any concert!) at Red Rocks Amphitheater?

I am fairly certin Joseph Gordon Levitt is gay.

so crush away but realize he's probably not interested

Then...as a younger girl it was totally JTT. I had the 'Wild America' poster, like a huge one, in my room. Middle school thru high school it was Justin Timberlake. I was a HUGE 'NSYNC fan. I'm talking every inch of my walls were covered in posters, pictures, etc... I even had the marionette dolls. Lol

Now...Bradley Cooper, Gerard Butler and Channing Tatum. Yum to all three!!

Showing my age but Mel Gibson, google him young and you'll see he was a hottie then he went crazy and downhill.  Now man I am more likely to go for women.  Catherine Zeta Jones was it for a while then Scarlet Johansson. I'd have to think a while now.

I should have definitely mentioned Jon Hamm. Tasty. But I threw him into the hot guy gif dance party for good measure. Sure, he wasn't dancing, but he's Jon Hamm.
