Who's your celebrity crush?
15.06.2025 00:04
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.
Sharleen Spiteri. Wow.
“Cool as Kim Deal” is a song by The Dandy Warhols. Yes, yes, yes!
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.
And watch The Petko Dance:
Aylin Tezel, German actress.
Is it true that LGB should drop T?
Nicolette Krebitz (German actress)
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!
And, yes, the Aerosmith videos… Alicia Silverstone.
And Fiona Apple. Such a good artist. And: Her eyes…!
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.
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).
Vanessa Paradis
Britta Hammelstein, German actress:
I had the following on VHS back then. She was just raw and fierce. Pantyhose, boots, no bra.

Cat Deeley
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).
Karen O
I have found myself not only liking her analysis and her charming ways but also finding her really attractive.
Shaved head, boots. Fierce.
Edina Gangl (water polo):
Can you provide some examples of music with a free form structure?
This video:
Klara Deutschmann, German actress.
Zia McCabe
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.
But Sara… Gorgeous. And I so love the sound of her voice.
Also, Melanie Blatt and Shaznay Lewis of All Saints, in the end of the 90s. That “Black Coffee” video.
If people in the UK hate Trump so much, why does he own golf courses there?
Ekaterina Gamova (volleyball):
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.
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.
Milena Tscharntke, German actress:
(Paula Beer, German actress)
(Alli Neumann, German actress and singer)
(more recent)
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.
Carolyn Lilipaly
Is it common for girlfriends to have close male friends who are single and not related to them?
Liv Lisa Fries, German actress
And yes, she does awesome air kicks and the windmill (the Pete Townshend stage move).
Also: Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes
Why did Sumire's summoning Nue act strangely in response to Kawaki's karma?
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?
Then the second film, where she was 15:
(Klara Bühl, German football player, also seems to be a really cool and adorable person)
What happens when you have paranoid schizophrenia?
Another video where when it came on, I just needed to sit and watch her and admire her.
Miriam Stein, Swiss-Austrian actress
I watched a few films with her just because I wanted to see her. Here a more recent picture, from when she was 51:
Have you had any paranormal activity situations happen personally to you or someone you know?
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…”).
Gotta love her as a person as well.
Wow.
Her eyes. Her style. Her voice.
Altogether: Her style and her attitude. Wow.
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. …
Well, also because I liked the song. But yes, Azealia. Her eyes, her lips, her facial expressions.
And Justine Frischmann:
Shirley Manson
Jasmin Tabatabai (German actress)
Incredibly pretty.
“Lick my legs and I’m on fire…” And that interview afterwards.
And I must have watched that “212” video by Azealia Banks 10–15 times, for sure.
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 ;-)
Almuth Schult, German football goalkeeper and TV expert:
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.
Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes
At the same time also: Anat Atzmon. The first Lemon Popsicle film.
Then: Louise Post (to the right):
Ashleigh Johnson, water polo:
And after that, here some more women I found and find super attractive.
Then also young Lisa Bonet. I liked The Cosby Show, but I could also not get enough of seeing her.
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.
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 ;-)
(Cortnee Vine, Asutralian football player)
Sinéad O’ Connor
With whatever haircut, even though I only give examples of a few here.
PJ Harvey. Just like many of the others here, I admire her as a person and artist.
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.
(The reason why I watched Heartbreak High)
A force of nature.
Kim Kulig, a former German football player.
Right, Nora Tschirner, actress and former MTV host:
Um, yeah …
Itsaso Arana, Spanish actress
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:
Right, some MTV UK VJanes during the 90s.
“Ey, man!!!” (in that voice)
Andrea Petkovic, a former German tennis player. Funny, charming, smart, nice, very beautiful.
Lovefoxxx
Polly is just great. You can only admire her as a person and as an artist. She always stays relevant.
Still so pretty:
(from 30:40 on)
I had that for the first time as a teenager with Mary Joe Fernandez
Just watch a few seconds here:
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.
“Bow down to me”
And they are both just lovely and funny (and very pretty). Gotta love both of them.
Bélén Vosseberg (water polo):
(Leonie Benesch, German actress)
Shirley, to me, while also a really likeable and cool person, it seems (from interviews), was one thing above all: SEXY.
Starting with: Sara Quin.
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 ;-)
“I’ll feed your obsession”
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.
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.
Some examples:
Susanne Bormann (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.
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.
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.
Wanda Perdelwitz, German actress:
God, she is simply just gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
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.
Just to know that if she wanted to do something like that, she should.
To this day, I would count it among my top 20 favourite albums. I saw them again in Sweden then.
This album cover by her former band also fascinated me:
Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Brody Dalle:
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.”
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.
(above she has a striking resemblence to German actress Nora Tschirner, another little crush when she was an MTV host)
(MTV days)
And the short hair. And the style. And coolness.
If I ever have a daughter, she will have to watch this at some point:
Andreya Casablanca, German musician (Gurr):
Abi Tucker
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.
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.
(Meike Droste, German actress)
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.
Those were all as a teenager.
Sophie Verbeeck, Belgian actress and singer:
I had to google pictures.
Well, actresses as well, of course:
Kim Deal
