Who was your first celebrity crush?
No Leif Garrett or Sean Cassidy for me, my very first celebrity crush was on James Dean. I can still remember how devastated I was after watching East of Eden for the first time then finding out from my grandmother that Dean had been dead for nearly 30 years. After the James Dean crush ran its course I moved on to Christopher Walken. Watch The Dead Zone it will make more sense, I promise.
Who was your first celebrity crush? Raquel Welch? One of the Corey’s? Maybe Farrah Fawcett or Joe Namith?

@Mr_M you have very unique taste in women, I’m guessing you have a pin-up of Margaret Thatcher in your bedroom.
HAVE YOU BEEN SPYING ON ME???
@SuperMouse C. Thomas Howell and Matt Dillion too! Now I want to watch The Outsiders.
it was Paula Abul… is that ridiculous?
@jonsblond I’m not sure I could get through The Outsiders! I remember I loved that movie so much. I haven’t seen it in years but I’ll bet the cheese factor is much higher than I remember it being when I was 16. I had a huge crush on Sean Penn too. Do you remember Taps or was that before time? Sean Penn was such a tortured soul in that movie – he touched me so deeply I saw it at least three times in the theater (that was waayyy before VCR’s).
Keifer Sutherland in Lost Boys
Or Christian Slater in Heathers and Gleaming the Cube
@SuperMouse My son had to watch The Outsiders for school a few years back. It was a bit cheesy but sure did bring back some fond memories.
I was born in 71. I do remember Taps, that was a good movie, though I preffered Cruise over Penn.
Notice I used the word preferred. :)

Oh boy I completely forgot about Kirk Cameron. Then I moved on to bad boys as listed above.
The first one I can remember is Salma Hayek, but I’m sure there were others before that.
@elijahsuicide Another good boy was Rick Schroder. I had a huge crush on him. I remember when he had his first kiss on Silver Spoons and I was so jealous of the girl he got to kiss!
And who didn’t want to dirty dance with Patrick Swayze? I would only wear keds and tight knee length jean shorts for that whole summer.
@elijahsuicide – I remember explaining to my dad why it was so completely necessary to buy the shorts (gap), and keds – not the knock-offs. Uh…hello…Baby wore them and she got the guy!
