Childhood Celebrity Crush ... ?

[Earth 2 Chris]

^How could I forget Mary Anne? She always trumped Ginger for me. No contest.

I mentioned Heater Langenkamp earlier...here's something that endeared her to me even more. A shot in the Warner Bros. catalog pamphlet given out in theaters for Batman in 1989:



And Elizabeth Shue



I tended to go for the wholesome, girl-next-door types.

I second (and third) many of the names already listed. I'd have to add a really cute girl from Zoom (anyone else remember that PBS show? Or was it just a New England thing?) though I have no clue her name.

[El Hombre Nuclear]

You know, these puppy love crushes are cute and all, but I think it's high time that someone finally says what, deep in our hearts, we all know to be true. Because when it comes to 70s sex symbols, there's everyone else...

Yeah, we had Zoom. So which girl? Was it Bernadette, who did the arm thing?

When I was 12 it was Dorothy Hamill, after that it was Lynda Carter.
I also liked Maren Jensen.

[Mongoose1983]

Well, my 1st celebrity crush was Agnetha, from the Swedish group ABBA.

I was kinda mesmerized when I 1st saw her on TV, and to date I think I owe her this thing I have for blonde women.



Then I turned over to Catherine Bach, the succulent causin of the Duke boys



...She must be one of the hottest females to ever grace TV sets around the world!



And the other one I never forgot was Ursula Andress. I have this memory of a videotape at home, which I was not allowed to watch. It was an Italian movie from 1976 called L'Infermiera, or The Nurse I think it was in the States. Fortunately, I found a DVD set on eBay about a decade ago and I finally got to watch the movie complete and uncut. You could say the 1st time I saw Ursula Andress as the nurse she left some serious impression on me.

Sigh...........................

She wasn't my 1st crush, but aww man Lisa sure was HOT!

Here's something for you, EMCE

[TomStrong]

Holy crap! Me too. I thought she was amazing. I couldn't look away. To this day I remember next to nothing about the show except her.
