Who's your celebrity crush?

Starting with: Sara Quin.

Liv Lisa Fries, German actress

Um, yeah …

Why cant I ever fall asleep with my boyfriend?

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

Right, some MTV UK VJanes during the 90s.

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

There is any scientific evidence that we live in a sphere. Why do others say that we lives in a flat Earth but there is no evidence that they have proven the existence of a flat earth?

Miriam Stein, Swiss-Austrian actress

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.

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).

Why would Joseph Smith say that polygamy was God's law?

Nicolette Krebitz (German actress)

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

Her eyes. Her style. Her voice.

What misfortune led to an important discovery?

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

Klara Deutschmann, German actress.

Wow.

What is the reason that Worcester, Massachusetts is not as well-known as Boston and Springfield, even though it is a large city with many neighborhoods?

Kim Deal

This album cover by her former band also fascinated me:

(MTV days)

How do you feel about the impending end of what Donald Trump calls "the Green New scam"?

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.

Milena Tscharntke, German actress:

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 ;-)

What is the reason behind the Russian government's negative view on foreign travel?

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.

“Bow down to me”

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.

Had strong anxiety, heart palpitations, headaches and fear randomly over twin flame presence, 20 mins later he didnt acknowledge me saw a photo of a girl on the back of his phone faced up. Assume it was a new gf. Was this a warning of seperation?

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

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

Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Can it be true that people know your name, not your story, they’ve heard what you’ve done, but not what you’ve been through, so take their opinions of you with a grain of salt?

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

And, yes, the Aerosmith videos… Alicia Silverstone.

This video:

Do "flat-earthers" attempt to sail around the world to prove their theory? Would this support their belief in a flat Earth?

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. …

A force of nature.

Lovefoxxx

What is the most gay experience with your dad?

(from 30:40 on)

Well, actresses as well, of course:

Vanessa Paradis

What baseball stories from the early days of the sport seem too bizarre to be true?

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

Carolyn Lilipaly

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

Artificial Intelligence Is Unlocking the Secrets of Black Holes - WIRED

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?

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.

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

What is the reason for the high number of stray dogs in Thailand? What measures are being taken to address this issue?

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.

Then: Louise Post (to the right):

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.

Why can’t the British eat or drink anything unless they place a table cloth on the table first?

Almuth Schult, German football goalkeeper and TV expert:

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:

Then the second film, where she was 15:

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.

Right, Nora Tschirner, actress and former MTV host:

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

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!

Still so pretty:

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

And watch The Petko Dance:

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.

And Justine Frischmann:

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

“Ey, man!!!” (in that voice)

(Meike Droste, German actress)

Karen O

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

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

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.

Sinéad O’ Connor

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.

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

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.

Itsaso Arana, Spanish actress

Altogether: Her style and her attitude. Wow.

Jasmin Tabatabai (German actress)

Shirley Manson

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

Aylin Tezel, German actress.

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

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.

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 ;-)

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

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.

Just watch a few seconds here:

(more recent)

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 ;-)

Some examples:

Incredibly pretty.

Shaved head, boots. Fierce.

Susanne Bormann (German actress)

Zia McCabe

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

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

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.

Abi Tucker

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

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.”

Wanda Perdelwitz, German actress:

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.

Also: Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes

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).

(Cortnee Vine, Asutralian football player)

(Alli Neumann, German actress and singer)

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.

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

(Paula Beer, German actress)

Ashleigh Johnson, water polo:

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

Cat Deeley

Sophie Verbeeck, Belgian actress and singer:

Brody Dalle:

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

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

Bélén Vosseberg (water polo):

Kim Kulig, a former German football player.

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

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

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.

Ekaterina Gamova (volleyball):

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.

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

“I’ll feed your obsession”

Andreya Casablanca, German musician (Gurr):

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

Britta Hammelstein, German actress:

Edina Gangl (water polo):

Those were all as a teenager.

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…”).

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.

Sharleen Spiteri. Wow.

(Leonie Benesch, German actress)

Gotta love her as a person as well.

Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes

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 had to google pictures.

(The reason why I watched Heartbreak High)
