Who's your celebrity crush?

But well, that’s it from me. Yes, I am quite fascinated with female beauty. Mostly, it’s the eyes, definitely. The eyes and the face. But it’s even more fascinating when personality fascinates you as well. That’s the real deal. In real life. And on TV or in videos, you can just admire looks and personality. Without anyone knowing, for my part ;-) I would only share this here, where I am anonymous.

Karen O

I remember having a discussion, one night out when I was 20. Me, my two best friends and the girl I was in love with (but never told her), who had started studying dentistry. She said “teeth gaps are awful, I cannot look at that!”. Me and both of my friends: “Vanessa Paradis!! Sorry, she’s only complete with tooth gap, and very pretty.”

Shaved head, boots. Fierce.

And check more YouTube videos. This one, from 2:27: I could watch again and again and again (I don’t, but I would enjoy it).

And the short hair. And the style. And coolness.

All the ways Apple TV boxes do—and mostly don’t—track you - Ars Technica

Starting with: Sara Quin.

Shirley, to me, while also a really likeable and cool person, it seems (from interviews), was one thing above all: SEXY.

Edina Gangl (water polo):

How can I get my ex-husband to love me again?

I actually put images of her on many flyers I created when together with a friend I hosted a monthly punk rock club night as a DJ. One week before, we would plaster the city with homemade flyers.

But Sara… Gorgeous. And I so love the sound of her voice.

Her eyes. Her style. Her voice.

How can we become the best humans? How can we trust each other?

(Paula Beer, German actress)

Susanne Bormann (German actress)

Wow.

My landlord just sold the house I’m renting from her. She included all fixtures, that I bought and installed. Does she have this right?

Also: Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes

Miriam Stein, Swiss-Austrian actress

Zia McCabe

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

(Cortnee Vine, Asutralian football player)

Gorgeous. Gorgeous. Gorgeous. So my type, looks-wise. So reminding me of a big love in my life, who looks-wise would be in between Shelley Duvall and Fiona Apple, and whom, of course, I admire in a different way because I actually know her ;-)

Right, I also had a Jewel Kilcher poster (which I thought was OK to have because I liked the music as well). First album period. Before her style changed more to glamourous. It was this song and the video to it that got me.

Why do women have sex with dogs?

And they are both just lovely and funny (and very pretty). Gotta love both of them.

And nowadays I still have this thing when watching sports. Athletes I like to see. I can easily name a few I find very pretty, whom I like to see:

And, yes, the Aerosmith videos… Alicia Silverstone.

Wanda Perdelwitz, German actress:

Aylin Tezel, German actress.

But there’s another aspect, I can also find someone physically attractive. In that respect, among other, I have a thing for plus-size women. And when thinking about it: How many famous actresses would classify as plus size? I cannot think of any right now. I am sure I would have had a crush on a plus-size actress. But there do not seem to be any. At least not a lot, for sure. Which is a bit unfair, I have to say. A bit discriminating. TV and films should show more plus size women.

Polly is just great. You can only admire her as a person and as an artist. She always stays relevant.

Altogether: Her style and her attitude. Wow.

Incredibly pretty.

PJ Harvey. Just like many of the others here, I admire her as a person and artist.

‘Tyler Perry’s Straw’ Review: Taraji P. Henson Plays a Woman Well Past the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown - Variety

Itsaso Arana, Spanish actress

Here it was just the music videos. “Not If You Were The Last Junkie on Earth”: You do not even see her that much, on keyboards and tambourine. But every time the video came on, I had to watch, I was waiting for those moments. Wow. It wasn’t more than that though, really.

And Justine Frischmann:

Trump asks Congress to pull $9.4 billion in funding for NPR, PBS and foreign aid - Axios

First row and Nina Gordon (my friend’s favourite) and Louise Post took off their shirts and played the encore in their bras. Oh boy!

Also, Melanie Blatt and Shaznay Lewis of All Saints, in the end of the 90s. That “Black Coffee” video.

Still so pretty:

God, she is simply just gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.

“Ey, man!!!” (in that voice)

Jasmin Tabatabai (German actress)

(Alli Neumann, German actress and singer)

I’ve read some not so nice things about her though. I’d rather not know more and keep her songs I like in mind. And this video ;-)

But I have also always found her really really pretty. And, yes, sexy. During my college year in the US, I had a huge promo poster of her on my door (“Stories from the City…”).

Sharleen Spiteri. Wow.

Um, yeah …

Lovefoxxx

(MTV days)

P.S. An interesting thing. In real life, superficially, it’s faces for me. Eyes. And faces. Although I don’t believe that eyes is a superficial thing, actually.

And: I have always hated watching football and having female friends comment on which players they find attractive. But … I have to admit that when watching sports, me too, I secretly do pay attention to whom I find pretty … Perhaps that is normal. Anyway, it’s just a little “crush” during the game.

Sinéad O’ Connor

“I’ll feed your obsession”

And yes, she does awesome air kicks and the windmill (the Pete Townshend stage move).

Ashleigh Johnson, water polo:

Liv Lisa Fries, German actress

Seems to me I do not stop having small secret celebrity crushes.

The first one, as a teenager, was Sophie Marceau. Perhaps my biggest celebrity crush. Seing the two “La Boum” films when I was 13. She was 13 in the first film as well.

Vanessa Paradis

Klara Deutschmann, German actress.

Gotta love her as a person as well.

To this day, I would count it among my top 20 favourite albums. I saw them again in Sweden then.

I had to google pictures.

Shirley Manson

Andrea Petkovic, a former German tennis player. Funny, charming, smart, nice, very beautiful.

Right, Nora Tschirner, actress and former MTV host:

“Lick my legs and I’m on fire…” And that interview afterwards.

She was really a teenage crush. I had the films on VHS. And I saw as many other films with her as I could. All secretly, I did not want my sisters or anyone else to notice ;-) Would have been uncool, I thought. So no posters or stuff. Interestingly, my first real life big big crush (for 4 years, without trying anything) looked very similar.

(Leonie Benesch, German actress)

A force of nature.

Well, actresses as well, of course:

Just watch a few seconds here:

I had seen this video on MTV Alternative Nation. Not only did I love the song and went to buy the album the next day, I also immediately was focused on Louise Post. I loved Nina as well, but it was Louise.

First of all, for me, per definition, “celebrity crush” means a person I find to be very attractive and I can’t stop watching because I find them very beautiful. I don’t mean an obsession. I never had that. Even as a teenager, I could only have that in real life. A real crush. Permanently thinking about someone. Celebrities were never “real” for me in that sense. And hey, as you will see, there are a lot that have fascinated me, more or less (whereas in real life, it hasn’t been very many). But always just when I was seeing them (or, with singers, also listening to them). So, that’s my definition of celebrity crush.

“Cool as Kim Deal” is a song by The Dandy Warhols. Yes, yes, yes!

(more recent)

Almuth Schult, German football goalkeeper and TV expert:

Then: Louise Post (to the right):

Another video where when it came on, I just needed to sit and watch her and admire her.

So, this one developed into a really big post, way too much. But I felt like writing this down. If not for anyone else, it’s interesting for me to reflect on this.

“Bow down to me”

With whatever haircut, even though I only give examples of a few here.

At the same time also: Anat Atzmon. The first Lemon Popsicle film.

Jennifer Love Hewitt.

And yeah, in more recent years, I still have this, when watching TV or music videos, that I then find someone super pretty and just enjoy watching them. Their faces, their facial expressions.

With my definition of celebrity crushes, I actually keep having small celebrity crushes even at 46. It’s more that I admire someone when I see them. I wouldn’t do what I did as a teenager, then watch entire films just to admire someone. I’m a bit too old for that.

This video:

I had that for the first time as a teenager with Mary Joe Fernandez

Nicolette Krebitz (German actress)

This album cover by her former band also fascinated me:

I had the following on VHS back then. She was just raw and fierce. Pantyhose, boots, no bra.

Some examples:

Her eyes. Her facial expressions. Her style. "The girl who looks boyish is the intelligent boy's choice," she once said, explaining her short hair.

I have found myself not only liking her analysis and her charming ways but also finding her really attractive.

Right, and a few years ago, I watched the Martha & The Muffins’ video “Echo Beach” and was really fascinated by the blonde keyboard player, Martha Ladly.

Cat Deeley

Bélén Vosseberg (water polo):

Abi Tucker

And after that, here some more women I found and find super attractive.

Well, also because I liked the song. But yes, Azealia. Her eyes, her lips, her facial expressions.

I mean, first of all, I love the band. I saw them opening up for Ryan Adams in Philadelphia in 2002. And I was impressed with their music, immediately bought their album If It Was You at the concert.

Seems like I, when watching sports, always find an athlete I find very pretty, where I am waiting for the camera to show her. It’s stupid but it’s true.

(above she has a striking resemblence to German actress Nora Tschirner, another little crush when she was an MTV host)

Gorgeous. And I love her voice. And she seems to be such an amazing person. She lives in an ecohouse she built herself in some small beach town in Brazil (I saw an interview on YouTube).

Milena Tscharntke, German actress:

Kim Deal

Then the second film, where she was 15:

(Klara Bühl, German football player, also seems to be a really cool and adorable person)

Those were all as a teenager.

And, about a year ago, I saw an old Woody Allen film and saw Shelley Duvall for the first time. And I was amazed. How crazy beautiful that woman was. Her big eyes, the eyelid space (interesting thing to notice as attractive), her paleness (yes, one can like paleness!). Her vulnerable expression and in the next moment that glow, that spark.

My very first concert as a teenager was also Veruca Salt then, in Hamburg. Them opening up for Dinosaur Jr. Me and my friend were so impressed that we actually missed Dinosaur Jr. …

Britta Hammelstein, German actress:

Kim Kulig, a former German football player.

Right, some MTV UK VJanes during the 90s.

And watch The Petko Dance:

And I must have watched that “212” video by Azealia Banks 10–15 times, for sure.

And Fiona Apple. Such a good artist. And: Her eyes…!

Ekaterina Gamova (volleyball):

Andreya Casablanca, German musician (Gurr):

Just to know that if she wanted to do something like that, she should.

Carrie Brownstein. Same here, I admire her to this day for who she is and what she does. And will always do. And also: My God is she pretty. I’ll always have a celebrity crush on her.

Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes

I do find this topic interesting, browsing through others’ posts. It really shows one thing: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There is no general standard, really. It’s individual. And that’s quite nice, isn’t it?

Sophie Verbeeck, Belgian actress and singer:

If I ever have a daughter, she will have to watch this at some point:

Then also young Lisa Bonet. I liked The Cosby Show, but I could also not get enough of seeing her.

Carolyn Lilipaly

Brody Dalle:

(from 30:40 on)

I really do love Tegan as well. But yeah, Sara… I wouldn’t tell anyone about it and I wouldn’t watch Tegan & Sara videos just to see her, but my Sara fascination will surely last my whole life ;-)

Back then I have to admit I watched a few of her games only to see her. I liked watching tennis and played myself. But with Mary Joe Fernandez, I more wanted to see her.

I watched a few films with her just because I wanted to see her. Here a more recent picture, from when she was 51:
