Who was the celebrity person that got your blood pumping when you were young?
Mine was Simon le Bon from Duran Duran...
1982... Anytime they came on the radio or on tv the heat would rise in me!
I saw them recently on a sky interview and he still has it.
So do tell.. Who got yah...
I always preferred John Taylor, being older now I'd not like any of them, they always seem to come across as arrogant divas. Huge turn off...... Now if I could have him for a night and not let him talk - that's a different story! My first MASSIVE crush would be Matt Goss (Bros.) . My older cousins were mean and said cus I was the youngest I was only allowed have Craig. :sad:
Was and still is Mr Jon Bon Jovi :smitten::smitten::smitten::smitten: the things i would do to that man given half a chance :inlove::inlove::inlove::inlove:
Actually i do remember as a ickle wan having a crush on George Michael during his Wham days...but obviously that was never going to end well
This is an interesting one.
Coming from Art college it was all Talking Heads, Patti Smith, the Pixies and the like, none of your squeekie clean pop shite here I'll have you know. We were art rockers. Debbie Harry certainly got me excited but there is a saying that you should never meet your idols, you'll only be disappointed - how true is that. I met her in Jurys hotel for some work I was doing - words cannot describe how disappointing that was.
On a brighter side, I met the lovely Joan Armatrading, I had always been a quiet fan (I guess I've always had a feminine side). Not only was she stunning, funny, engaging we had a great time - shes a huge fan of the Beano comic!!! It was brilliant.
And finally; Dublin, Christmas 1983 - Blooms hotel. I met my all time rock hero (still is to this day) Rory Gallagher. He was terrific - could I get a sensible word out of my mouth? could I be in the least bit coherent? could I even look him in the eye? - I was a dribbling sap!!!
I still have the guitar pick he gave me thought.
Now check this out with the volume up loud ... FH
Linda Carter aka Wonder Woman .....
I was about 11.... ah the memories ...
In the 80's it was Kylie and I so still would, and have been lucky enough to actually meet her twice and she is even better in the flesh than she is on the telly..
But Linda Carter ... i just cant my finger on why :thumbup:
Mine has got to be Larry Mullen Jnr.. OMG the nights I spent dreaming about that man OMG but before ye all jump on me I mean back in the day of the Joshua Tree!! Sex on legs that man was for me :wink:
Michael Hutchence from inxs was the first big one, pardon the pun. When he said "Come over here" at the beginning of the video for 'Need You Tonight' I suddenly found myself sitting up and paying a lot of attention. Had it in my head he was a very naughty boy and ma wouldn't approve.
Mmmmm....
Quote by Kitten28 The earliest I can remember is Morten Harket from A-Ha think it was my total love of the Take On Me video Aaand Harrison Ford aka Hans Solo
hi5 kitten...and Morten is still as sexy,saw them in brum for their last ever a 3yrs ago..and he hasnt and i lusted after adam ant the make up and clothes..
Tough one this... Sam Fox maybe, or Kim Wilde, definitely had a thing for Martika and that short black hair. The singer from Swing Out Sister was a fine thing too, as was Elizabeth Shue in the original Karate Kid movie. But probably the strongest crush I had though was Wendy James from Transvision Vamp. She made me hard just by watching her on tv
And Jamie Lee Curtis was a close second... You can see where I am going with this ! I have always been partial to sophisticated, confident, independent and "Cat Like" Women. Still am ! xx Top Cat
Hmmm this is a toughie....neither were what you would call celebrities back in their day but they were the best of the best in their respective fields.....I'll probably get the slagging of my life over this but I'll admit to having massive crusheds on.....
