Jim's Cafe - Friday, Dec. 27, 2024 - "celeb crush"

[Angie]

Hello SF family, I hope this find you well.

Today's question is:

Who was your first celebrity crush and how old were you?

 

[Reality]

John Shneider, from Dukes of Hazzard. I was probably not even a teen or maybe a young teen I can't remember.

My first celebrity crush was the actor Jason Ritter. I was about 11, and he was then playing the character of Kevin in Joan of Arcadia. It was a good show, but looking back it's kind of problematic. I've heard it said a lot more often recently that disabled actors should play disabled characters, but the character of Kevin is disabled and uses a wheelchair and Jason Ritter is not. But the show came out in like 2003, and that wasn't really something that as many people were paying attention to then.

This is Kevin:

Thank you for posting this cool cafe Angie, and for the tag @Kiwi2016

My first celeb crush was JTT (Jonathan Taylor Thomas, but all his fans referred to him in the abbreviated way cos it was a lot quicker to say, lol) when I was about 9 or 10 years old. I had a big poster of him on the wall in my room and a bunch of smaller pics of him from some of those bopper mags too, lol :p

Some more tags: @MisterBGone @Road to Nowhere @cymbele @puffymilk @Livelife @mosaic hearts @FFurry

PS - Good taste there Baywasp, can see why you liked him, he’s very handsome! 😍🥰❤️

Good question, and one where I do have a habit of mixing up which one was first. Now one I can distinctly remember as striking an impression was Barbara Eden on I Dream of Jeannie. Not only was she a beauty but the character was also a lovable type to folks and the show is still just hilarious.

 

[Inanimate]

One of the first that I can remember is Jensen Ackles. I watched Supernatural religiously in middle school and high school, and so did my mother and aunt, so his face was rather unavoidable and, of course, pleasing to see. I have since moved on, but he was the first.

 

[Chargette]

I'm 67 years old and my first crush was from the 1960s when I was about 9. William Shatner from Star Trek.

 

[Gonz]

Winona Ryder.

Years later, I married a petite brunette with a shoplifting problem.
Coincidence?

 

[Road to Nowhere]

If I had to pick only one it was Meg Ryan when I was 8 years old When Harry Met Sally.

 

[FFurry]

Well, my age was just about the same or so, so I'll have y'all guess 😂 And there are still no bad pictures of her in my mind, so that's the first one that comes up in search:

 

[Lane]

Thanks for opening and the tag Angie and Kiwi. Fun question. I liked Eric Estrada.

 

[pooky]

Hilary duff from Lizzie mcguire. I was a teen then

 

[LumberJack]

I have answered this elsewhere, but I thought of an earlier one. When I was around 10 I remember seeing Tom Selleck in Magnum PI, and feeling a crush on the way he looked.
