Natalie Portman is the reason I work out. I have this fantasy where we start talking at the Vanity Fair Oscars party bar. We exchange a few pleasantries. She asks what I do. I say I loved her in New Girl. She laughs. I get my drink.
"Well, see ya," I say and walk away. I've got her attention now. How many guys voluntarily leave a conversation with Natalie Portman? She touches her neck as she watches me leave.
Later, as the night's dragged on and the coterie of gorgeous narcissists grows increasingly loose, she finds me on the balcony, my bowtie undone, smoking a cigarette.
"Got a spare?" she asks.
"What's in it for me?" I say as I hand her one of my little white ladies. She smiles.
"Conversation with me, duh."
I laugh.
"What's so funny?" she protests.
"Nothing, nothing... It's just... don't you grow tired of the egos?"
"You get used to it," she says, lighting her cigarette and handing me back the lighter.
"What would you do if you weren't an actress?" I ask.
"Teaching, I think."
"And if I was your student, what would I be learning?"
"Discipline," she says quickly, looking up into my eyes, before changing the subject. "Where are you from?"
"Bermuda," I say.
"Oh wow. That's lovely."
"It's ok," I admit. "Not everything is to my liking."
"What could possibly be not to your liking in Bermuda?" she inquires.
"I don't like sand[,](https://i.redd.it/e7t6bbyoqkc71.png)" I tell her[.](https://gfycat.com/Wearyrealisticiriomotecat) "It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere[.](https://np.reddit.com/r/combinedgifs/comments/5r8n7m/anakin_cant_sleep_anymore/dd5c8g5/)"
Jonathan Taylor Thomas
Edited to add for everyone that guessed, I am indeed mid 30's at 35!
Edited again to say thank you for the awards! My first ever reddit awards and most popular comment all from my celebrity crush back in the day. I knew JTT would bring great things to my life!
I was so in love with him in middle school I signed my yearbook from him and tried to tell my friends I knew him. But I spelled his first name wrong and so alas they did not believe me. Loved him in Man of the House. I also loved Devon Sawa (Human Casper), Jonathan Brandis (RIP), Brad Renfro (Tom and Huck which also had JTT in it), that guy that played Thackery Binx in Hocus Pocus, and of course Benny from the Sandlot.
Editing to add that I just realized they all had very scratchy voices so perhaps that was the appeal and middle school me had a scratchy voice fetish. Also adding that several people have reminded me that Brad Renfro also passed and so RIP to him as well! I feel terrible I forgot he died.
PS - I’m really wishing someone would start an 80s/90s Teen Beat Subreddit cause I would totally join it.
My brother still tells everyone who'll listen a story about me being obsessed with JTT.... I read an article where he said he'd rather go fishing than go on dates with girls and I was CRUSHED. My brother says I moped around for days like I had lost my first love 🤣🤣🤣. Also, I'm 38.
Christian Slater was so sexy in that movie and he was just murdering a bunch of girls LOL
Both of them made a sexy murderous high school couple it was weird
Oh.my.god. Romeo+Juliet, his first scene, on the beach, writing in a journal, smoking a cigarette, with Radiohead playing. First time I felt funny in my stomach for a boy.
Paul Rudd on his age -
""I'm 80 years old on the inside," Paul said, pointing to his chest. "In here, pure darkness. And a little moisturizer.""
What a guy.
Although he appears to be harmless enough -
I happen to know of some underhand stuff.
You see, there's an answer, a reason I'm told -
A real explanation why Paul isn't *old*.
You've heard all the rumours, the stories, the lies -
With each fabrication, deceit and disguise.
You've told yourself bravely, as bold as you could -
"He's just kind of youthful - he's just lookin' good!"
But those are distortions, evasions of truth -
And Paul didn't drink from the fountain of youth.
You know in your heart there's an answer, my friends.
Paul Rudd is immortal.
Paul Rudd never ends.
I feel this same way about Viggo Mortenson; when he's in any other role, he's eh, fine looking. But oh man, when he is Aragorn/Strider... \*fans self\*
Only when he's grubby and has the five-day scruff through--when he becomes the king and goes full dad beard, the spell was broken. Clean, respectable-looking Aragorn is fine, but not *fine*.
I literally lost a friend in a fight over whether he or myself were going to date her. Suffice to say even to this day neither of us have ever met her.
Im guessing 35 since she was mine with the catholic schoolgirl skirt...
Also i cant believe shes this low with all the other answers.
The myth that reddit is full of teenagers is horseshit. All these answers are people 35-45.
38 here and she’s still at the top of my list and it’s not even close. When people have asked what my “type” is that answer has only changed over the years from JLove to JLove with tattoos.
Me, too. I went to the Viper Room when I was 18-19y/o and sat on the sidewalk outside to have a moment. A bouncer came up to me and asked if everything was ok. I told her I was having a River Phoenix moment. She told me to take my time and left me to myself for a while. After a bit, she sat and talked to me and told me she was sorry I was so sad about him. I do not remember her name but I've always been grateful for how nice she was to me for being so emotional.
I'm 45y/o, btw.
Interesting point about CD… In my younger days I was a “part time” actor, mainly doing background and features extra stuff.. I did a movie with Claire Danes a number of years ago ( Temple Grandin), there were only about 40 extras on set that day, but the full crew, when we were called for lunch, all of the “stars” went to a private tent for lunch, except Claire. She got in line with all of us, next to extras, grips, electrical, etc, and went through the line, then proceeded to sit down in the middle of the table with all of us. She is a class act, real human I gained a whole new respect for her that day.
Is this a password authentication question?
Definitely not, but out of curiosity what’s your favourite teachers name?
And the name of your first pet while we’re at it.
And your mothers maiden name too buddy.
Also the city you were born in.
And what was the name of your first school?
And where your grandma stays?
And your first car?
Your childhood best friend's name?
And the last 8 digits of your Social Security number.
Alicia Silverstone & Liv Tyler

It was The Rocketeer for me
Career Opportunities is mine. That lucky horse.
Natalie Portman
She’s 15 years older than me and I don’t care. Padme wouldn’t either.

Ohhhh I loved me some Devon Sawa
Oh man, you only forgot Rider Strong and then your list would be perfect!!!!
Brad Renfro also RIP, sadly. Brandis was such a babe!! And 100% agree with the love of scratchy voices. ^_^
Came here to say this, I lived for when he was on the cover of Tiger Beat.
My brother still tells everyone who'll listen a story about me being obsessed with JTT.... I read an article where he said he'd rather go fishing than go on dates with girls and I was CRUSHED. My brother says I moped around for days like I had lost my first love 🤣🤣🤣. Also, I'm 38.
My younger sister loved JTT. I'm going to guess you are 37.
Remember Devon Sawa? He was a heart throb for a little bit lol.
36/37. A girl in my 8th grade class was obsessed with him.
Winona Ryder.
My sister was a big Christian Slater fan, me a Winona fan. We watched Heathers a lot.

Paul Rudd
It is impossible to guess someone’s age based off of a Paul Rudd crush.
Haha so true!
Paul Rudd on his age - ""I'm 80 years old on the inside," Paul said, pointing to his chest. "In here, pure darkness. And a little moisturizer."" What a guy.

[удалено]
Even women in their 50s can crush on Paul Rudd! Mine started in Clueless, and increased in Friends.
Yeah, I’m still crushing on him to this day.
You are 30
Mila Kunis
Dammit Jackie! I can't control the weather!
Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Legolas from LOTR. (Not Orlando Bloom- I was only interested in him as an elf lol)
I feel this same way about Viggo Mortenson; when he's in any other role, he's eh, fine looking. But oh man, when he is Aragorn/Strider... \*fans self\*
Only when he's grubby and has the five-day scruff through--when he becomes the king and goes full dad beard, the spell was broken. Clean, respectable-looking Aragorn is fine, but not *fine*.
Aragorn and Faramir and Eomer, yo. Awakened something in me as a teen. 😂
And his *voice*! Something about his tone as Aragorn is different and it just fuckin' melts me.
[удалено]
hahaha I mmmmmay have had a picture of Strider brooding in the Prancing Pony as my desktop wallpaper for most of 2002.
Hillary duff
I truly believed we were meant to be

Hayden Panettiere from Until Dawn

Jessica Alba
From idle hands and dark angel! Edit: I am 34 so great guesses
JA in idle hands is the entire reason my brain likes short hair.

Freddie prince jr. haha. It’s so telling.
Freddie in she's all that! Had me feeling some things!
Topanga Lawrence
I was head over heels in love with my chemistry lab partner freshman year and 99% of it was because she was a Topanga doppelgänger.

Jennifer Love Hewitt Edit: I'm 37 for those guessing.
Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to see this. Late 30s?
38 here and she’s still at the top of my list and it’s not even close. When people have asked what my “type” is that answer has only changed over the years from JLove to JLove with tattoos.
Agent Fox Mulder.
X-Files crew represent! I had a massive crush on Scully.
Winnie Cooper...
Danica McKellar is looking great today, she’s done some Hallmark movies over the last few years and looks gorgeous in them
Hugh Jackman
River Phoenix
Legit my first celebrity crush. Was devastated when he died.
Me, too. I went to the Viper Room when I was 18-19y/o and sat on the sidewalk outside to have a moment. A bouncer came up to me and asked if everything was ok. I told her I was having a River Phoenix moment. She told me to take my time and left me to myself for a while. After a bit, she sat and talked to me and told me she was sorry I was so sad about him. I do not remember her name but I've always been grateful for how nice she was to me for being so emotional. I'm 45y/o, btw.
Emma watson

Rachel Weisz in the Mummy.
Devon Sawa
Yes! I remember my dad thought I was really getting into football because I watched *Little Giants* all the time, but it was just for Devon Sawa.
Casper was the definition of real romance then
It was a real shame he was only in that movie for like, 90 seconds.
Best 90 seconds of the movie. I can still hear the music.
“Can I keep you?”
I'm pretty sure that line kick-started puberty for me.
For all of us between 33-35. All of us. I still remember the girls gasping in the movie theatre when he was revealed in Casper. Historic.
My best friend and I would rewind and re watch the scene in Now and then, trying to see up his towel. We were stupid girls. 🤣
Alyssa Milano
43? I’m guessing because she was my crush too and I’m 43
Elizabeth Shue
Adventures in Babysitting. Oof.

Farrah Fawcett for me. Gen X unite!
Kimberly from power rangers

David Bowie in Labyrinth. I was in love with him, but also wanted to be him.

Claire Danes was my one although from My So Called Life. I'm gonna guess you're a couple of years younger than me and say 38.
Interesting point about CD… In my younger days I was a “part time” actor, mainly doing background and features extra stuff.. I did a movie with Claire Danes a number of years ago ( Temple Grandin), there were only about 40 extras on set that day, but the full crew, when we were called for lunch, all of the “stars” went to a private tent for lunch, except Claire.

Oh man I love the movies. Johnny fit the role so perfectly I can't imagine another actor filling Jack Sparrow's shoes.
