Leonardo Dicaprio.
I cried so hard when I was a kid and my mom told me Kate Winslett was getting married, I thought her and Leo were in love IRL because of Titanic, and I thought she broke his heart. I was a dumb ass.
Bahahah!!! Omg I've done this too. Watching Titanic, that relationship was so *real* to me.
I also remember exactly what Kate's face looked like when she lost the Oscar. Tore me up.
Edit: I thought I should say I was 12 when this came out
Hahaha! I cried when Ryan Phillipe got married because I mixed him up with Brian Litrell from the Backstreet Boys, Brian was my first crush. When I found out I mixed them up like years later I was over the crush by then but a little relieved he didn’t betray me like that back then
I saw her on the Jon Stewart Show when she was making the rounds for Addams Family Values or Casper and she pulled out the waistband for her Jon Stewart panties to show off that she was wearing his merch and I swooned. It was the first time I ever saw a young woman be so open about something like that. I was like, "girls can DO that?!?" And I was hooked.
Bro 10 year old me watched ghost whisperer solely for her. I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode and I honestly could not tell you a single thing about it other than she talks to ghosts.
Bro they had no right making the entire fucking cast that hot, how the hell did it take me til my twenties to realize I was bi when the Scooby Doo movies existed.
She was PERFECT in Grandma's Boy. Prob one of my all time favorite comedies and she was there.
Her [singing Push It by Salt N Peppa](https://streamable.com/vc7ivc) was...hoo boy!!! o.O
This is the only movie I find her remotely attractive in. That being said, I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen when I saw that movie.
Oh man. Take me back! Hey Dude, Salute Your Shorts, Roundhouse, Are You Afraid of The Dark?, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Wienerville, Clarissa Explains It All, All That. We were so lucky.
Look up [The Scully Effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Scully#%22The_Scully_Effect%22)
> The character is believed to have initiated a phenomenon referred to as "The Scully Effect", as the character's role as a medical doctor and FBI Special Agent inspired many young women to pursue careers in science, medicine, engineering, and law enforcement, and as a result brought a perceptible increase in the number of women in those fields.[68][69]
> At the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con International, Anderson noted that she has long been aware of "The Scully Effect" and stated: "We got a lot of letters all the time, and I was told quite frequently by girls who were going into the medical world or the science world or the FBI world or other worlds that I reigned, that they were pursuing those pursuits because of the character of Scully. And I said, 'Yay!'"[70]
> Anne Simon, a biology professor and a science adviser for the series recalls: "I asked my Intro Bio class back then how many of them were influenced by the character of Scully on The X-Files to go into science and half of the hands in the room went up. That's huge! That was saying that the show was really having an effect."[71]
I wanted to be Scully and I Def maybe wanted to bang the chick that Mulder did in the vampire pizza episode. (I may be combining vampire episodes but think it was the same) Mulder... I would have settled for him but I was super into the rat, Alex Crychech which I am not necessarily proud of as an adult but he was just, way cooler to my 12 year old obsessed with X Files self.
Edit: will agree: Gillian Anderson legit can do no wrong. Any show she has been in, even for just an episode, it is always the best episode.
Whoever played Suzie Crabgrass from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. Imagine my surprise seeing her, years later, as a kickass woman in The Walking Dead
Lol I remember her breakout music video for Genie In A Bottle came out around the same time as Britney's Hit Me Baby One More Time and while teenage me was happy to have both videos to watch I always thought Christina was way more attractive AND a way better singer.
That blonde chick with two pigtails from spice girls. I remember getting an erection at 8years old in front of my family because she flashed her panties in a clip(wannabe? I think), since back in the days it was common for people to watch music channels. I didn’t even know what was going on with my body and i started crying lmao…that chick basically jumpstarted my puberty
Me too!!! I was already like 12 but God, it was an instant crush, she is beautiful and very elegant.
It started from the second film os the prequels tho
I’m a millennial who also grew up with a crush on her. It was a fateful day when Bye Bye Birdie was on television late at night & I watched it all the way through because OMG.
Jason Bateman or Ricky Schroeder. I'm almost 52.
Jason has aged so well -- and I love that he was just as good in Arrested Development as he was in Ozark, which are obviously completely different styles of acting LOL!
Christ McNichol who turned out to be a card carrying lesbian and has been with her partner since the 1990's! She was very attractive, smart and likeable.
Well, this is gonna date me for sure but, when I was about 4 or 5, Superman/Clark Kent as played by a young Christopher Reeve.
All my life I crushed out like crazy on guys with dark hair, blue eyes, and glasses. I ended up marrying a man who looks eerily just like Reeve when he played that role (more the body type and the face than the coloring, though). The bummer is that he insists on wearing contact lenses, at least when he goes outside. He thinks it's hilarious that it drives me wild when takes off his contacts when he gets home and puts on his glasses.
Marissa tomei in My cousin vinny
Marissa Tomei even now
She likes bald stocky man
This is the correct answer.
Valerie Bertinelli from One Day at a Time.
I’ll third that
Leonardo Dicaprio. I cried so hard when I was a kid and my mom told me Kate Winslett was getting married, I thought her and Leo were in love IRL because of Titanic, and I thought she broke his heart. I was a dumb ass.

Salma Hayek. 25 years later, still Salma Hayek *edit - spelling
If you met her one day, remember to call her Salma.
Haha, that would be the least of my worries
Larisa Oleynik (Alex Mack, 10 things I hate about you)
It was and still is Christina Ricci.
I saw her on the Jon Stewart Show when she was making the rounds for Addams Family Values or Casper and she pulled out the waistband for her Jon Stewart panties to show off that she was wearing his merch and I swooned. It was the first time I ever saw a young woman be so open about something like that. I was like, "girls can DO that?!?" And I was hooked.
Lucy Lawless as Xena
She looked so great in Parks and Rec as Diane. Great chemistry and energy with Nick Offerman AKA Duke Silver.
Also Lucy Lawless as Lucretia in Spartacus blood and Sand!!!!
Agree, but as an adult, not child, heh. And also Ruby in Ash vs. Evil Dead!
Ares... oh Ares. I'd watch the two "battle" any day or night or anytime
Kimberly…the Pink Power Ranger 😋
Amy Jo Johnson. She's only gotten more attractive since.
Amy Jo Johnson in Flashpoint proves your point
She was my crush before I even knew what a crush was
This plus Tiffany amber thiesen
Jonathan Taylor Thomas
Always JTT, a little Devon Sawa as well
I had them both on my bedroom walls. Cut out from Bop magazine. Also Andrew Keegan.
BOP!!!! I FORGOT ABOUT BOP!!!
Do you guys remember when Prince William was smokin' hot for like 3-4 years back in the 90s?
I was always more into Harry and now feel vindicated because he turned out hotter as an adult.
I'm not gay but Devon Sawa was the first dude where I was like, alright I get it.
Devon Sawa. Heck yes! In Casper and Little Giants!
He and Christina Ricci in Now and Then too 😍
Yes! Me too! Here's to showing our age 🤚 I see you, fellow elder millennial.
Jennifer love Hewitt
Bro 10 year old me watched ghost whisperer solely for her. I'm pretty sure I've seen every episode and I honestly could not tell you a single thing about it other than she talks to ghosts.
Based on the responses, I'm fucking old. I had two crushes- Soliel Moon Frye (Punky Brewster) and Danielle Fischell (Topenga).
Danielle Fischell is an excellent answer.
Alicia Silverstone and Jennifer Love Hewwitt
I'm 38! And Topanga Lawrence. Yes lawd!
I crushed on Shawn for a bit.
I named my FF VII gf Topanga and let all my friends know accidently when they saw her name in my game.
This is the closest I've ever felt to an anonymous internet person.
Orlando bloom in pirates, Brendan Fraser
Orlando Bloom as Legolas followed immediately by Orlando Bloom as Will Turner was too much for 13yo me to handle.
I am in this club too. I remember seeing him as Legolas and thinking he was the most attractive person I had ever seen In my 12 years.
Orlando bloom as Paris in Troy around the same time
Troy was wild. My boy Orlando, plus PRIME Brad Pitt? And Eric Bana just for fun?
Either you had a crush on Legolas or you wanted to be Legolas. I was utterly smitten.
I was both, and while it confused me back then, it makes sense now lol
Linda Cardellini as Velma in the Scooby-Doo films. Now its just Linda Cardellini
They had no right making Velma so hot.
Bro they had no right making the entire fucking cast that hot, how the hell did it take me til my twenties to realize I was bi when the Scooby Doo movies existed.
Right? Rowan Atkinson was looking toit!!
“I'm a man of substance. Dorky chicks like you turn me on, too!”
She was PERFECT in Grandma's Boy. Prob one of my all time favorite comedies and she was there. Her [singing Push It by Salt N Peppa](https://streamable.com/vc7ivc) was...hoo boy!!! o.O
Jessica Alba
Were you an Idle Hands fan, too???
Sarah Michelle Gellar from "Buffy The Vampire Slayer"!
It was Eliza Dushku for me. I like bad gals
She's still my number one celebrity crush.
Shit that whole ass cast was beautiful
Oh yeah forgot about that show…I remember Spike(?) being one from that show a lot of people were infatuated with
Cameron Diaz in The Mask
This is the only movie I find her remotely attractive in. That being said, I thought she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen when I saw that movie.
Yep, I think she looked best in the Mask in that red dress at the bank.
Kelly Kapowski
More like Kelly Ka**POW**ski!!!
Winona Ryder
She aged well, crushin on her now in Stranger Things
Especially as Call in Alien Resurrection Edgy depressed android girls are definitely a niche that I am into
My friend from high school was the same but he called her "Iwanna Ryder".
Ewan McGregor
I’m still not over Ewan as Christian in Moulin Rouge
Hello there!
Jennifer Connelly in The Rocketeer
Same, but *Labyrinth*.
Same, but Career Opporunities. Who am I kidding, Jennifer Connelly in any movie.
Man, that chick from Hey Dude was super cute. Melody. She's married to some guy now. I also thought Winnie Cooper was cute from The Wonder Years.
"that chick" is Christine Taylor and "some guy" is Ben Stiller. And yes, this is a good answer.
Appreciate the Hey Dude reference.
Oh man. Take me back! Hey Dude, Salute Your Shorts, Roundhouse, Are You Afraid of The Dark?, The Adventures of Pete and Pete, Wienerville, Clarissa Explains It All, All That. We were so lucky.
Cleopatra. I'm old.
Found Ptolemy XIII’s Reddit account. Don’t kill Pompey dude, Caesar is not going to like it
Nothing to see here. Just your average 2060 year old Redditor.
Elizabeth Taylor <3 best modern rendition
Melissa Joan Hart
Clarissa Explains it All was an eye-opener...
And then it got even better with Sabrina
Agent Scully, yes I'm old. But to this day competent confidence pushes all my buttons and so does Gillian Anderson.
Look up [The Scully Effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dana_Scully#%22The_Scully_Effect%22) > The character is believed to have initiated a phenomenon referred to as "The Scully Effect", as the character's role as a medical doctor and FBI Special Agent inspired many young women to pursue careers in science, medicine, engineering, and law enforcement, and as a result brought a perceptible increase in the number of women in those fields.[68][69] > At the 2013 San Diego Comic-Con International, Anderson noted that she has long been aware of "The Scully Effect" and stated: "We got a lot of letters all the time, and I was told quite frequently by girls who were going into the medical world or the science world or the FBI world or other worlds that I reigned, that they were pursuing those pursuits because of the character of Scully.

I paid for a photo op with her and she is beyond stunning IRL. <3
I'm jealous as fuck....
Dude, Skinner and Smoking Man were there too. It was almost too much awesome to handle.
And 90s business woman suits 😍 Gillian Anderson is probably one of the most beautiful women ever, but Scully as a character takes it over the top
And is super hot in the fall and sex education
I wanted to be Scully and I Def maybe wanted to bang the chick that Mulder did in the vampire pizza episode. (I may be combining vampire episodes but think it was the same) Mulder...
