Tim Curry lol

Aubrey Plaza
Still is
Earliest is Christina Ricci. I was 10 and the movie was Casper.
That crush continues to this day.
Anyone remember: Kristy McNichol?
My boyhood dream.
I think my first was Linda Carter.
Definitely on my list.
- Hudson Leick (Calisto on Xena)

- John Henson (Talk Soup)
- Tiffani-Amber Thiessen

Lilu Multipass & Ruby Rhod
Candice Bergen I’m the Wind and the Lion
Candice Bergen as Murphy Brown. I think halfway I wanted her and halfway I wanted to be her.
Jessica Alba then Emma Watson and then Megan Fox 💀
But I was more grown up for the later two. My child child crush was Jessica Alba 😂
Christina Ricci. I was maybe 5 or 6 the first time I saw the Addams Family movies, I was already extremely into everything scary and/or Halloween adjacent, and she was only a few years older than I was, and she was both pretty and scary, and the boy she gets paired with in Values reminded me of me. The overall effect of this was to fill me with a deep-seated lifelong fondness for spooky women in general and her in particular. A few years after that I saw Casper, which only reinforced the effect, and Sleepy Hollow showed up just in time for me to hit puberty.
By look, Milla Jovovich in the 5th Element.
By sound, Tim Curry in Ferngully.
Danielle Fischel and Rider Strong (Topanga and Shawn from Boy Meets World). Trying to understand how I could be attracted to both led to some important realisations as a young teen…
Eddie Vedder circa Ten. Sigh…
Man…what 12 year old me would have given to explore Alex Mack’s secret world…
Linda Hamilton circa Beauty and the Beast
Michelle Pfeiffer circa Ladyhawke
