Michael Jackson. Pre-WTF, of course. MJ was the only man I thought I was going to marry. I would have been over the moon about doing my tap routine to Thriller in fourth grade (complete with cardboard headstones and black lights), had I not already moved on to my Wilson Phillips stage.
Michael J. Fox. This man is no chicken. He made me a firm believer in time travel. And I think puffy vests are sexy.
The entire cast of Newsies. This is a movie about Christian Bale singing and dancing, surrounded by lots of other hot, singing, dancing boys. I have been aware of Christian Bale since 1992. Well aware. Very well aware.
Jordan Catalano. "I'm in love. His name is Jordan Catalano. He was left back, twice. Once I almost touched his shoulder in the middle of a pop quiz. He's always closing his eyes, like it hurts to look at things."
Butch Walker. Once the lead singer of one of my all-time favorite glam-pop bands Marvelous 3, Butch gave me a little sugar buzz from the way he was flipping guitar picks into the audience at now-ancient-history Trax in Charlottesville. God I love those glasses.
Zack Braff. He's a gigantic dork. I'm a gigantic dork. He's got a crush on Natalie Portman. I've got a crush on Natalie Portman. We're like, brain twins.
Johnny Depp. Do I need to explain this one? I assume you all have imaginations.
Nice list. My list of childhood crushes contains mostly cartoon characters. Is that weird?
ReplyDeleteNewsies! I also was aware of Christian Bales from "Swing Kids" with my other crush at the time, Robert Sean Leonard
ReplyDeleteI LOVED Newsies!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, no explanation is ever required with Johnny.
i think we have very similar taste in men. and by men, i mean girly boys. however, i would never admit to liking jordan catalano because he's in that lame band 30 Seconds to Mars and thinks he's hard as shit.
ReplyDeletechristian bale is still my #1 love, along with ryan gosling- fuuuuuuu... -who was another young obsession i had when i discovered him on an after school show called Breaker High. i even wrote him a fan letter asking him to prom, but then quickly crumpled it up, hid it under my bed, and went with my cousin instead.
true story.
