Lately my celebrity crush list is a tad bit out of control and a few of them? Well, I’m kind of embarrassed to admit to them.
Crush #1 (and probably most embarrassing one): Vinny, from Jersey Shore. Why? Maybe it’s his attitude on the show (for the most part); or the fact that he comes from a truly authentic Italian family, or maybe the fact that he wears what he wants to the clubs and laughs when his housemates make fun of him.
Crush #2: Tim Riggins, from Friday Night Lights. (This means that I will want to see John Carter and Battleship at some point.) It’s the accent, the hair, the football uniform and his transformation as the show continues.
Crush #3: Taye Diggs. I know I’m late to the party on this since he was a model forever ago but wow, he looks fine.
Crush #4: Channing Tatum. From Step Up! (Yes, I watch those movies) to Dear John and his awesome job on Saturday Night Live, I’m hooked. He can dance. He can sing. He can act and apparently he’s good at being in a relationship. Yes, please.
Crush #5: Blake Shelton. Between listening to country music more frequently and then watching The Voice! I’ve become a Shelton fan. Once again, his accent kills me but his hair, clothes, and overall gentlemenly demeanor? Swoon. (Good thing Knight grew up in a small farm town and has a lot of the same characteristics, eh? He can do a mean Blake Shelton impersonation too.)
Your turn! Who are your celebrity crushes lately? (Embarrassing or otherwise?)
(Updated: my good friend Nilsa is celebrating five years of amazing writing & insight at her blog this week, which means she’s got giveaways going on this week AND a chance for you to nominate a charity that you feel strongly about. Nilsa will pick a winning charity each day and donate money to that group/organization (full rules & details on her blog). How awesome is that for a celebration? Today’s giveaway are awesome sticky notes from Papaya. Go check it out. Suggest a charity and maybe you’ll win!)
I will always love Patrick Dempsey and Matt Damon. My newest celebrity crush, though, is Tom Colicchio from Top Chef. Well, it’s not that new of a crush as I have had a crush on him for the last couple of years. He’s this big, bald guy, but he’s such a talented chef, and he’s such a good host on that show. He has the best facial expressions. And honestly? I kind of have a thing for men who have a shaved head because it just shows this level of confidence or something!
Best part about Taye Diggs? He SINGS like a BEAUTY! I saw “Wicked” opening weekend back in 2003. I was lucky enough that he was the understudy for Fiyero, so I got to see him live
Amazing, sexy man.
Numbers 2, 3, and 4 I’m right there with you!!! (I may or may not be following Channing Tatum on twitter).
TIM. RIGGINS. Be still my heart. Since I grew up in a small town in Texas, he reminds me of all the boys I dated in high school, only better/older/hotter. Love him.
I *love* Blake Shelton. Someone mentioned on Twitter how he’s sleazy he is on The Voice. I don’t get that! He’s so nice and sweet and funny! It was a weird comment, for sure. I’ll admit it was watching Blake that has turned me into a (slight) country music fan.
Other celebrity crushes include Matt Damon and Joe Bastianich, from MasterChef. Oh, and I could give you a slew of NFL football players I have crushes on, including, yes, Tim Tebow. (DON’T JUDGE!
)
Mama loves me some Tim Riggins! And, even though I’m no country fan, I have fallen in love with Blake Shelton. He’s the kind of guy I’d want to hang out with (Miranda, too, of course) for all the reasons you stated! I’m also having a celebrity crush on Adam Levine … hottie and I love how seriously he takes his coaching role on The Voice (love that show!!!!!!!!).
I don’t have a crush on Blake Shelton per se, but I loooove him too! How could you possibly watch The Voice and not love him? I also love his wife.
I don’t like country music, but The Voice has me swooning for Blake. And you KNOW how I feel about Tim Riggins.
Those guys are all pretty good looking but I don’t think I have seen them in action, and I know that makes a big difference sometimes! I like Patrick Dempsey too. There’s something about the hair, the eyes, the dimple. I also like the main guy from Parenthood. Maybe because he just seems like such a good dad on the show. I don’t even know who the real guy is though, so who knows!
seriously Taye Diggs is one attractive man, it’s slightly ridiculous. mmmmm. My list is a bit ridiculous but I’d say the newest additions are Sam Worthington and Simon Baker, so much swoon with those two,mmmm.
I have a secret crush on Vinny, too. He’s the only “normal” one on the show! Such a cutie.
Have you seen The Vow yet? You should, because Channing Tatum was absolutely charming in it. He was never on my crush list, but this movie totally made me change my mind. (But it’s also a really sad movie at times so be prepared to cry!)
Some of my other celebrity crushes: Adam Levine, Justin Timberlake, Bradley Cooper, Ryan Reynolds, and Henrik Lundqvist (goalie for the New York Rangers… so maybe not the most well-known celebrity, but he’s GORGEOUS).
That is a pretty good list! I’ll save teasing you on Vinny, he is a cutie but Jersey Shore?? And I’m more of a Coach Taylor girl but yes, I will be seeing John Carter.
Taye and Channing have always been favorites of mine! Also Eric Dane for me. And always Gerard Butler… But more of PS I Love You than Gladiator. And Bradley Cooper!
I love all the same men you love. Including Vinny, and I don’t even like the Jersey Shore, but he’s always been my favorite. Matt Damon used to be my future husband, but then I realized he’s actually way older than I am and also has, like, several children. I still think he’s pretty, though.
Channing Tatum is tops on my list. He’s so adorable and I find myself excited to watch 21 Jump Street. I’m hoping he takes his shirt off.
Also on my list are Ryan Gosling and Mark Wahlberg.
Alex O’Laughlin
Vinny Lecavalier
Ryan Reynolds
mmmmm such eye candy
I’m crushing on Zac Efron ever since I saw him sing on Ellen with Taylor Swift.
Aside from his recent manwhorish escapades with Snooki, yes, I secretly (now not so secret) have a crush on Vinny. From his untanned skin, to his love for his momma, and his good nature.
No judgement here. My top three right now..
#1 Ryan Gosling
#2 Daniel Henney
#3 Matthew Crawley (Dan Stevens)
And while I’m at it, girl crush on Rachel McAdams and Odette Annable
Someone recently told me that Taye Diggs can’t act. I just stared at them and said “Taye Diggs could stand in the middle of the room and all of the other actors could walk around him and I would still watch the movie”
That man is too fine for words.
My list is long, very long! Here are a few though! Scott Caan, Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Simon Baker…just to name a few!
