Which celebs did you have a crush on growing up? This could be movie stars, sitcom actors/actresses, musicians, whatever! Post all of your embarrassing ones too! :D

Well, my very first celeb crush was on Emilio Estevez :rofl: That's pretty embarrassing. I must've been about 9 or 10 at the time (I think the first Mighty Ducks movie came out in 1992 or something, so 10 would be right). Hahhaa, I used to go to the library whenever they were showing his movies and was in fangirl heaven :rofl:

I also had a brief crush on Rider Strong (Shawn on Boy Meets World) and Eddie Furlong (he was in The Terminator, but I didn't start liking him until he starred in 'Livin' on The Edge', the Aerosmith video). These crushes were around 1993 and 1994.

But that all stopped when I became a Pearl Jam fan and had the BIGGEST crush on Eddie Vedder :rofl: I was seriously obsessed with him and my Mom made fun of me because of it. It's pretty embarrassing looking back on it (although I do love their music to this day).

Ok, your turn! ;)

Aw, I love John Ritter too (although not until a few years ago...not as a childhood). I don't really have a crush on him anymore, but I still think he's awesome :)

I forgot to mention Leonardo DiCaprio in my post...I liked him a lot when 'Romeo+Juliet' came out in 1996.

My first celebrity crush was Stone Cold Steve Austin from the then-WWF. Not kidding. I must've been about 9 or 10 at the time.

John Stamos and Mark Paul Gosselaar. And Macauley Culkin. He reminded me of the guy I had a crush on in school; I think that was a lot of it.

I liked the usual teen stars of the day...David Cassidy, Bobby Sherman, Davy Jones, etc, but my first real crush was on Peter Duel, star of the TV western, Alias Smith & Jones. He was also on a TV series with Judy Carne....Love On A Rooftop. I just loved him, and was devastated when he died. I was only 14, and it really bothered me. I still have the newspaper clipping from when he died.

To this day, 35 years later, I'm saddened by his death. I read up on him on various websites. Apparently, I'm not the only one who is still interested in his life. He's sort of a legendary figure to many.

It was a terrible shame. Alcoholism did the poor guy in. He was only 31 when he died. It wasn't just a girlhood crush that passed. Maybe it would have been, had he lived. I'll never know that. I just know that I was in love with him, in my young mind. Those dimples, that twinkle in his eyes. Flipped me out when he died.

Wasn't she Kevin's mom on the 80s Disney movie, Flight of the Navigator? Or, was that Veronica Cartwright? I tend to confuse the two.

My first celeb crush was on Fred Savage when he was on The Wonder Years. I'm so embarrassed about that now!! :rofl:

I also had a thing for Leonardo DiCaprio; he looks a lot like a guy I had a crush on all through middle school. :o

Alias Smith and Jones was better with him than that second guy.
