CONFESS!!!! Post a photo of one of your stranger childhood celebrity crushes

[LynneSin]

Yes, I was a Horshack fan - go figure

[seabeyond]

1. ah haha. no way. not even. that is funny. lol. it is the dimple, huh? nt

[racaulk]

2. OK, I'll admit it.

I'm totally embarrassed by this. Knowing that he's a Republican makes me even more embarrassed.

:hide:

[BurtWorm]

3. Wow! What would Kinsey have made of that?

:wtf:

Ok. Here's one of mine:

[Tobin S.]

4. I lived for Saturday mornings

[BurtWorm]

9. You have that crush in common with R. Crumb's older brother Charles.

Have you seen Crumb? Great movie!

[Tobin S.]

11. No I've never seen the movie

I'll have to check it out sometime.

[Crankie Avalon]

18. That's ROBERT Crumb...

...and HE had the crush on Bugs Bunny. Charles Crumb had the crush on Bobby Driscoll.

[BurtWorm]

19. I caught the first point.

(George Crumb is a weirdo in his own right, but not the subject of the movie named Crumb.)

And I was trying to remember if it was Robert or Charles who had the crush on BB. (The rabbit, not the French star.)

[Hell Hath No Fury]

82. I thought I was the only freak --

with a crush on Bugs?!?!? :D Nice to know I am not the only one. :crazy:

[Brickbat]

5. OK, I'll play.

[GoCubsGo]

89. You got my fave there...

I had a MAJOR crush on Randolph Mantooth. Heck, I still do. He looks damn good for 60-something:

[RobinA]

107. Another Vote

for Randolph Mantooth.

[mcctatas]

6. the only reason to watch Captain Kangaroo

[racaulk]

10. OMG!!!

I totally forgot about him! For some reason, the only thing I can remember about Captain Kangaroo was the moose in the bathtub and the falling ping pong balls.

:shrug:

[csziggy]

69. Whoa! That was WAAAAAAAAAY after I stopped watch the Captain!

I liked Mr. Greenjeans - he was into taking care of the earth even back around 1960.

[Chan790]

7. I think half my middle-school class did.

[motely36]

8. 2 of mine

[Brickbat]

13. I like your Burt Ward picture better.

Mine, he looks like Lee Harvey Oswald.

[motely36]

14. I missed that you had already posted him.

Yeah, he was hot.

[pgodbold]

17. I think a squid got his legs!

[motely36]

21. Could be

He was always getting into jams where batman would have to rescue him.

[MiddleFingerMom]

12. Say something in French.

16. I don't find that strange at all.

:thumbsup:

Florence Henderson would be strange. Alice B. Davis. Shirley Booth. Aunt Bea. But not Tish. (even the name!)

[MiddleFingerMom]

23. M-m-m-m-m-m-m... Aunt Bea.

[BurtWorm]

24. Now you're talkin'!

I thought her friend Clara was mi-T fine, myself. Especially when she let her hair down in Ole Mexico! Arrrrriba!

[Crankie Avalon]

15. The MOM from the Partridge Family...

...never the daughter. :shrug:

[tigereye]

99. David Cassidy, yes. It was the times.

[KamaAina]

20. The middle sister on Gimme a Break!

played by Lauri Hendler:



Mmmm... glasses... :loveya: From the same era, Sarah Jessica Parker as Patty on Square Pegs, but an SJP jones would hardly be considered strange nowadays!

[Dr. Strange]

22. Here's my crush.

It's not freaky, though, 'cause she was hot.

[frogmarch]

25. Jack Elam!

When I was 12, I wrote him fan letters and even invited him to our house to ride our horses. All I ever got back was an autographed photo of him

It was his cool eye that fascinated me. Still does.

[NewJeffCT]

26. One of my first crushes

Though, probably not so strange...

[mcctatas]

27. one of the few women to make bloomers look good

:P

[NewJeffCT]

38. Lynda Carter made just about anything look good

Most actresses these days that are built like her have been surgically enhanced...

[Moondog]

28. I thought Diana Rigg as "Emma Peel" was very, very hot.

[BurtWorm]

30. If that's one of your stranger crushes, what do you consider a normal one?

:wtf:

[Moondog]

32. Excellent question.

I tended to lust after the live and unattainable, as opposed to the illusory and unattainable.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

96. You and every boy in my high school

Not so strange.

[TheMightyFavog]

29. The only reason I ever watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers when it came out...

Yes I am aware that Johnsotn is still on TV, starring in CBS's Flashpoint, the show that's so Canadian, you can smell the back bacon coming out of your TV.

Shame what happened to Thuy Trang, there should be a three strikes law for DUI. On your third strike you are forever banned from being behind the wheel of ANY motor vehicle.

[Crankie Avalon]

31. Now we delve a little deeper...

Edith Prickley...IRRESISTABLE.

[BurtWorm]

33. You twisted bastidge!

:thumbsup:

[Crystal Clarity]

34. Lee Majors from 'Big Valley'

pre-'Bionic Man'... although I liked him then too.



ETA: Hey, I was like 8 or 9! :shrug:

[Hassin Bin Sober]

86. Speaking of that show, wasn't Barbara Stanwick always getting the living shit beat out of her?

I'm talking like 2x4s to the back of the head type fights/beatings.

What a bizarre show.

I remember reading (and laughing) at one time, that show's reruns and The Rifleman's reruns earned The Christian Broadcast Network (CBN) the rating for the most violent channel on TV.

[BurtWorm]

35. Bonnie Prudden

I don't know why...

[texanwitch]

58. Why is the guy bending over like that.

That woman could flex.

[Mr. Ected]

36. I loved American Grafitti, and had the hots for Mackenzie Phillips

Earlier, though, I used to have strange dreams (for a 6 year old) because of this woman:


Yvonne Craig

[MorningGlow]

37. Ooookaaayyy...you asked for it

Name that TV show...

[seabeyond]

39. huff a puff or something. i remember this. wow.....

takes me far far back. was a favorite.

[MorningGlow]

47. Close! But not quite. n/t

[eShirl]

40. HR PufNstuff (sp?)

[MorningGlow]

46. Very good!

Donut for you. :donut:

[seabeyond]

49. ah, i dont even win the donut hole.... geeesh. nt

[MorningGlow]

51. Okay, you can have a donut if you answer this question

Who was the villain on the show?

Bonus points for the lyrics to the character's famous song about fruit. (Hint: there are very few words to the song.) ;)

[seabeyond]

53. smilin

Witchiepoo

Oranges Poranges

http://hrpufnstuf.blogspot.com/2006/07/new-pufnstuf-theme-song.html

ok, really i cheated and dont remember the fruit song. sheeeit, i dont remember much of anything. but... i found this site with the theme song and was wonderful listening to again. use to see it everytime it came on

fun fun

thanks for the memories.

[MorningGlow]

54. EXACTLY CORRECT on both counts!

Congratulations! :applause: Here are your donuts: :donut: :donut: :donut:

[sinkingfeeling]

41. Any of you recognize him?

[Demoiselle]

60. Doug McClure?

One of the many players in the slew of TV Westerns in the '50's, but I can't think of the name of the show..

[csziggy]

70. Travis from The Virginian! n/t

[eShirl]

42. this is so embarrassing

http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/26369351/William+Shatner+captain_kirk_fit.jpg

I'm going to go crawl under a rock now.

[REP]

44. Not if you'd posted this one:

If you haven't seen him in 'Brothers Karamazov,' see it and wonder what happened.

[TK421]

50. The Shat! back in the day....hey, nothing to get embarrassed about there!

unless you listened to his album, that is

[LynneSin]

52. No THIS is embarassing and what's worse he's a republican

[stuntcat]

84. omg, HAWT

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[REP]

43. I was a strange child

[struggle4progress]

45. When I was in middle school, I thought Gloria Steinem was really hot

http://www.askdrding.com.nyud.net:8090/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/gloria-steinem.jpg
<from http://www.aaymca.com/gloria-steinem-aaymca-dot-com-20100828/ >
Soul-searching conflict resulted: I liked her feminism, so I was confused that I wanted to indulge in sexist thinking about her


<from http://www.nndb.com/people/185/000024113/ >
Back then I also had a terrible crush on Angela Davis, but we never met -- and so yet another of my youthful eternal loves remain unrequited

[jcboon]

48. I was a VERY strange child

I loved both of 'em.

[monmouth]

98. Francioso (sp?) got the crazy notion, back in the day, of marrying

Nancy Sinatra. Frank had a word, the romance was off....LOL.

[Tikki]

55. When I was under 12 y.o. or so, I wanted Oscar Levant to be a..

family friend and come over and play the piano.


I wanted Larry Fine to be my dad...(didn't have one)..


Rosemary Clooney to be my mother...


Troy Donahue to be my boyfriend....and I did marry a blond...



Tikki

[Duer 157099]

56. This is the only one I'll admit to:

[tigereye]

100. yeah, me too. I thought it was because i was a swimmer, but probably not!

Had the poster on my bedroom door for quite a while!

[woo me with science]

57. okay.

[carlyhippy]

59. ok, I don't know if I would call him strange, but I still have a crush on this guy

Peter Tork of the Monkees :)

[kwassa]

61. Sophia

not a strange crush, an enduring one.

[Common Sense Party]

63. It'd only be strange NOT to have a crush on her.

Homina homina.

[BurtWorm]

62. I just remembered a few pretty strange ones

Diane Arbus
Patty Deutsch (strange very nasal redhaired comedienne)
Michelle Loud (of the first reality Tv show an American family)
The darkhaired one (not Rita Moreno) on Electric Company who played Jane of the Jungle.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

64. Ross Martin

better known as Artemus Gordon

[XemaSab]

65. I win! I win! Louis Reukeyser!

:D

[lunamagica]

66. My first love...

I had such a big crush on him....

[csziggy]

67. I actually liked his horse better

Gene Autry and his horse Champion.

Gene was much cuter than Roy Rogers - besides, Roy had Dale to hang around with.

[sakabatou]

68. Melissa Joan Hart

That was back a while.

[wickerwoman]

71. I had a huge crush on Kevin Spacey and John Malkovich.

Part of my creepy, balding older man phase.

[Mad_Dem_X]

75. I freaking LOVE Kevin Spacey

I had a mad crush on Verbal Kint.

[blue_roses_lib]

101. ...

I still have the major hots for Kevin Spacey and John Malkovich.

Hot. Damn.


:9

[pamela]

72. I had a bunch...

A lot of the ones already mentioned like Heath from Big Valley (Lee Majors) and Robin of Batman and Robin. Plus...

Bobby Sherman


Michael Cole


Leonard Whiting
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/archive/8/80/20080507214904!Leonard_Whiting.jpg

I guess these aren't really strange, though. I had a crush on David Steinberg but I can't find a good picture of him from back in the day.

I had girl crushes on all the women that played opposite of the three pictured: Bridget Hanley, Peggy Lipton and Olivia Hussey. I really wanted to be them.

[pamela]

73. Oh, and, all of the Monkees except Mike.

[LynneSin]

77. I had a crush on all the Monkees but Mickey Dolenz

I thought there was something really creepy about his smile.

[Sugarcoated]

91. Ha!

I was going to post Mike Nesmith! The other three were funny, but not attractive. to me.

[begin_within]

94. Here's Bobby Sherman today...

He's a sherriff in San Bernardino, California, and is justifiably proud of his music career. Seems to have aged barely a day in 40 years. In his spare time he built a model of Disneyland's Main Street in his backyard. Many more photos at http://www.bobbysherman.com/

[RFKHumphreyObama]

74. OK some of my weird ones

Belinda Carlisle


Sigourney Weaver


Also Betty Buckley from Eight Is Enough and Marcia Clark when she was the OJ Simpson prosecutor

[Chan790]

76. I don't think either of those is that odd.

Well, Sigourney Weaver would be odd if you were me. She's the same age as my mother and not so much anymore but Aliens-era Ellen Ripley and my mother were freakishly-identical. Enough so that random people would stop my mom on the street and ask her for her autograph.

[deutsey]

78. Melanie from the cartoon "Josie and Pussycats"

She's the drummer. :loveya:

The crush was strange, imo, because she was a cartoon character. Same with my crush on the cartoon teen Pebbles.



I watched way too much TV growing up.

[Burma Jones]

79. Uhhh......OK

[qb]

80. Mr. French

He just seemed so warm & huggable!

[BillStein]

81. I searched for a picture

of Donald Hollinger.... Only reason I watched that show

[begin_within]

95. Here ya go

Handsome dude

[valerief]

83. Mighty Mouse

[Sugarcoated]

92. dupe

[Sugarcoated]

93. Me too, when I was 5 or 6

I distinctly remember crushing on him. And Mickey Mouse also, strangely.

[valerief]

103. Mickey didn't have any muscles, so he didn't hit my radar.

Although, at puberty I had a crush on Jerry Lewis. I'm not even French.

[NewJeffCT]

85. I'm not sure any of my crushes were that strange

Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, Jacklyn Smith from Charlie's Angels, the hot young babe of the week on Love Boat, Jan Brady from Brady Bunch, Joanie Cunningham from Happy Days as she got older.

I guess it was a bit odd that I like Smith over the more popular Farrah Fawcett...But, strange, I don't think so

[TommyO]

87. Never smoked a single cigarette, but these ads on the back of Popular Mechanics did it for me

[jobycom]

88. Tia. It was a weird crush.

From "Escape to Witch Mountain." I was too young to really know what I was feeling, but I was so obsessed with her character that I wanted to be her brother. :) I used to lay in bed at night and stare at the light switch, trying to turn it on with my mind, thinking if I tried really hard enough I could be like her. When they did the sequel I almost fainted from joy. :)

BTW, she's Paris Hilton's aunt.

[lunamagica]

104. Kim Richards was really, really cute. I wanted to be like her. nt

[BuddhaGirl]

90. Lee Majors - when he was in The Big Valley

I watched the reruns as a kid, the first runs were before my time!!

He was hot!!! :-)

[Lydia Leftcoast]

97. Mike Connors of "Mannix"

Ah yes, my late teenage years...

[blue_roses_lib]

102. This guy.

David Bowie in Labyrinth.

[WinkyDink]

105. Cubby the drummer:

[jberryhill]

106. The Sour Grapes Bunch

[BlueJazz]

108. She was my long-distance heart-throb >>.
