Remember this guy?
He was my first celebrity crush, back in the late-80’s.
I also loved Corey Haim, Scott Baio, Joey McIntyre, and Kirk Cameron, and, of course, I hung their photos from 16 Magazine and Tiger Beat all over my bedroom. I probably stared at them while listening to my Pocket Rocker. I was cool like that. š
Breakfast
For breakfast, I enjoyed a lovely jar of oats this morning.
Again, I had to rescue this mostly-empty peanut butter jar out of the garbage. I had a little “talk” with my husband this morning.
In the mix:
- 1/4 cup oats
- 1/4 cup spelt flakes
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed meal
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/2 cup non-fat milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 scoop peanut butter
And, as always, I enjoyed a glass of iced coffee with vanilla soy milk.

kirk cameron for sure!
Jonathan Taylor Thomas – Home Improvment ; )
Haha…didn’t see #100 until now. He was such a QT!
Jon Bon Jovi, I cried hysterically at school when KIIS fm reported he got married. You know, because I really had a shot with him at 10 years old. In college I was OBSESSED with Dave Matthews, posters all over my walls, ceiling, etc. In college my roommate had a poster of JTT on her wall (kind of as a joke but we both thought he was hot), which was AWESOME considering he’s a good deal younger than we are.
My first celebrity crush was actually the guy from Early Edition. I don’t even know his name now. I had a thing for older men…
And my first girl crush was, of course, Xena Warrior Princess.
Totally JTT. He was hot stuff!
ralph was my first crush too – and i’ll know you’ll be jealous when you hear this – i met him a few years ago. we were at an awards show and i babbled like a teenager. he was very sweet. i was also in a play with tamilyn tomita, who played his love interest in karate kid II, which was so surreal b/c all i did when i was a kid was wish i was her so i could kiss ralph macchio.
i did a whole post recently about the new karate kid movie and how i’ll refuse to see it.
I loved Jonathon Brandis and JTT. I guess I’m showing my age there. š
Johnny Depp! 21 Jump Street!
Joey McIntyre. HANDS DOWN. I remember sitting on my front porch when I was young and blowing a kiss out into the air and saying “send that to Joey!” mmm I wonder if he ever got it š
@Tracey @ I’m Not Superhuman: I still channel my inner 8th grader too when it comes to leo. what a hunk. ha.
If we’re being honest here…Billy Ray Cyrus. I had SUCH a crush on him when I was, like, five years old! After that I really had a crush on the son from the John Candy movie “The Great Outdoors.” Then I moved on to greener pastures, with JTT. Obviously.
jonathan taylor thomas!!!
and slater and zach from saved by the bell!
Ralph Macchio was a little before my time, although when I discovered him in my later years, I found him quite dreamy. My first celebrity crush was a tie between three (I can’t remember which I liked first!): Leonardo DiCaprio, Devon Sawa and Jonathan Taylor Thomas (JTT!!). I’m surprised my mom let me buy the magazines with the pin-up posters, but she did. Probably because she remembered what it was like to crush on Shaun Cassidy in her teenage years. š
Zach Morris from Saved By The Bell!!! Definitely!
JTT and Devon Sawa for sure!
Brad Renfro!!!! (RIP)
some guy from The Mighty Ducks movie. dont even remember his name. i dreamed that he let me wear his letterman’s jacket.?!?!?
Oh I totally loved JTT! He was my absolute favorite. Loved his hair. Now…not so much lol. Funny how tastes change!
Leonardo DiCaprio — the Titanic years
‘Nuff said
3 letters: JTT. Droooool!
Leonardo DiCaprio (I saw Titanic 11 times in the movie theater for him!) & Lance Bass from N’SYNC (before he came out)
I can’t believe no one’s said Neil Patrick Harris/Doogie Howser! Not only was he adorable, but he was smarter than adults, was a doctor, AND was an early blogger. (Remember how he used to write in his diary on his computer at the end of each day? Oh yeah, Doogie was a blogging pioneer!)
But yeah, I may or may not have drawn several pictures of him when I was 9. And I may or may not have hung them all over my room.
My first celeb crush was Joey from friends! I remember having a YM (yep so old lol) and he was on the cover. I’d bring it to school everyday and all of my friends and I would drool over the pictures lol! Oh to be a little girl again would be so fun! No work, all play lol!
I don’t know if he was my first celebrity crush, but I distinctly remember having a mild obsession with ANDREW KEEGAN. I really thought he was the cutest boy E V E R.
Jonathan Brandis. ahh the memories!
Jonathan Knight, Edward Furlong, Jason Priestly, Luke Perry and Adam Beach
AJ from Backstreet boys š
My very first celebrity crush was A-Rod when he was on the Mariners, but it soon developed into the very handsome Chad Michael Murray! Too bad he suddenly disappeared off One Tree Hill! noooo
Ohhh, this is hi-larious. So many good choices here … but I think my first celebrity crush was Leonardo DiCaprio when he was in Romeo and Juliet. I was in seventh grade. I was a late bloomer when it came to celebrity crushes, I guess! š But, oh, I loved him for awhile! A group of about 15 girls and I went to see that movie for someone’s b-day sleepover and we spent hours before hand pretty-ing ourselves up to go to the moive theater. Cause, yeah, Leo was going to see us through the screen and all … ha ha, too funny!
Oh man, I think I had a crush on Nicholas Cage for awhile too, yuck! Ha ha! City of Angels, what can I say? lol
Elijah Wood was my first celeb crush! I think I actually gave up on my real-life crush in favor of Elijah!
My first celebrity crush was Andrew Keegan… I can’t even remember what show he first starred in, but he eventually had a role on 7th Heaven (by then I’d moved on to Justin Timberlake – who is still my crush to this very day). I, too, would cover my walls in posters from Teen Beat! š
This is so going to date me….Leif Garrett was my one true love.
Elementary schools was Cory Hart and Matt Dillon. University was Mark Wahlberg when we was with Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch!
My first I think was Micheal J Fox…when i starred in thoe Return to the future movies. One of the biggest crushed I had was Jordan Knight. And I also had my walls plastered with their faces all over.
Haha – you are clearly a few years older than me. I was all about Rider Strong, Elijah Wood and a touch of JTT!
