First Celebrity Crush?

I am watching a few 80s movie with Steven Guttenburg. Yes, I will admit he was my first crush. I was very young, about 4 or5, and very impressionable. He was also cute back then. Had mad crushes on Keanu Reeves and Johnny Depp, too.
Anyone else willing to admit their first crush?
First ever was probably Leonardo DiCaprio in his Growing Pains days (which was rekindled when he did Romeo & Juliet, but I was pretty much over it by Titanic), or possibly Jonathan Brandis (Neverending Story 2?).
Other really memorable ones include JTT, Johnny Depp, Daniel Johns (from silverchair), Kurt Cobain (another member of Club 27)...I'm sure there were/are more....
Haha now I was never one for age appropriateness...or even generation appropriateness...
I remember telling my Mum that Paul McCartney was the cutest Beatle when I was about 7, so he would have been an early one. Of course I have seen the error of my ways now, Ringo is my real favourite :P
I fell in love with John Lennon when I was 8.
I was a huge baseball fan when I was a kid...I was OBSESSED with players and stats. Anyway, I had huge huge huge stalker-like crushes on David Justice, Steve Avery, and Tom Glavine from the Atlanta Braves. Too bad David Justice became a wife beater. >:( I'd still take Tom Glavine. ^-^
LOL, Tweety! All of the Osmond boys? My best friend had the Donnie and Marie dolls. Donnie wore a white tux with purple shirt, socks and trim. ;D
Is that the doctor from "Emergency!"?
Loved all the Osmonds, but liked Merrill the best. 3rd from the best. "One Bad Apple" is pure pop magic as far as I'm concerned, and he sang the lead. The other guy is Chad Everret from the Show Medical Center.....Lubi got it right.
Ok, super gonna date myself here. Bo Duke, Harrison Ford(I planned on moving to Indiana when I grew up to marry him), Launchpad McQuack from DuckTales. I'm not gonna lie.
it's funny how this thread is taking me down memory lane.. well, the time of being 10. 8-)
I wrote a blog the other day on current crushes/celebs I admire.

ooh, good topic.
My very first was probably Jonathan Brandis, when I saw Stephen King's "IT" at a young age. ...he got even hotter as he grew up, but sadly, he killed himself when he was just 27. :(

OMG!! He was my second crush. Dirty dirty thoughts as an adolescent.
OK, not really a "celebrity" per se....but when I was 4 years old there was this guy on Jeopardy who won 5 times in a row named Chuck. I was super impressed at the time and didn't stop talking about how wonderful Chuck was for a long time. My family still makes fun of of me for Chuck, just like they did through my whole entire childhood/adolescence. Whenever I had a new boyfriend (which wasn't all that often) it was always like "well, how does he compare to Chuck?" LOL.
Huh, so I just googled "Chuck Jeopardy" and he came up!

that's hilarious that you remembered him!
NMPixie, did you have heated debates with your friends about who was cuter--Bo or Luke? I was always baffled when they were Luke fans.
p.s. I just remembered another one--Simon LeBon (from Duran Duran)
When my family first started watching X files, my sister and mom had crushes on David Duchovny. They thought I did too (they wouldn't stop pestering me about this -_- soooo annoying), but I didn't. They had it all wrong. I had a crush on Gillian Anderson.
I bet know one remembers Tony Defranco and the Defranco family........
Haha awesome! I have to second Devon Sawa and Gabriel Damon (in the Newsies of course). Leo DiCaprio in 6th grade or something. And in early high school I had Larry Mullen from U2, Brad Pitt from Interview with a Vampire, and Heath Ledger when he was just getting big all over my binder.

I think all of those three pictures are still taped up on the back of my door at my parent's house. ;D
Why are there no guys reporting in here?
Back in high school I had a huge crush on Katie Holmes. I was a closet Dawson's Creek watcher, with the VCR set to record it each week. I would sneak downstairs late at night and watch it after everyone else was sound asleep. My mom woke up one time and came in to see what I was watching. She took one look and looked at me with this horrified look like I was watching porn or a daytime soap.
I started watching it on the weekends when she was gone to work instead.

I still tend to fall hard for the girls with the greenish/hazel eyes, freckles, and the hair that isn't quite blonde, and isn't quite brunette.
I blame Katie.
In the spirit of hazel eyed sandy blondes, Katie was followed by Eliza Dushku on Buffy.

I will have my revenge on Fox for canceling Dollhouse and her as Echo.
And for Firefly and Summer Glau.
And...
Fox sucks.
I left out my girl celebrity crush.
Jessica Alba!! <3 Because of the show Dark Angel. I was so in love with her. haha.

And for Dark Angel and Jessica Alba.
Fox still sucks.

The Hardy Boys (Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy)
:-D I liked Parker, but not Shaun. Hated Leif Garret.
I was always contrary; so the major heart-throbs were not for me.
It's the black-Irish guys who always get me. Pierce Brosnan, Parker Stevenson, Aidan Quinn...those amazing penetrating bluegrey eyes.
I remember seeing the first episode of "Remington Steele" and thinking "the ideal James Bond."
