I was looking at the "Your first 'TV star' crush" thread, and I feel that I should do the music version of this particular thread so here's my first "music star" celebrity crushes:


My very first "older man"  music celebrity crushes were Michael Jackson, Jeffrey Osbourne, Kid from Kid and Play, and Bobby Brown.

My very first "boy closer to my age" music celebrity crushes were Hakim Abdulsamad from The Boys (Dial My Heart) and Tevin Campbell.

Anybody who has their very first "music star" celebrity crush, just post it right here.  Thank you.

My first music celebrity crush was Candice Pennella, known simply as Candi.  She was like Canada's version of Paula Abdul, popular around the same time and scored a handful of hits, the biggest of which was Under Your Spell in 1989

Oh ok.  Are you from Canada?

Though I'm now into her music, I actually thought Deborah Gibson was hot about a decade ago (I aready knew she was long already an adult).
Ironically the same time as the 1999/early 2000's pop princesses, which several I don't find appealing.  I

also thought the Go-Go's and Toni Basil were cute.

I've been told that I had a thing for Paula Abdul, though I don't even remember since I was about 5 when she was popular  :D

Toni Basil were cute.




Have you seen her lately?  She has not aged well at all.


My first music crush would be Sean Cassidy.

Even though I was just a little kid, I thought that Simon Le Bon and John Taylor of Duran Duran were so cute!  ;D

My first really big, BIG music celeb crush was Jon Bon Jovi!  :-[  ;D

Olivia Newton-John for sure.
She was my first musical crush. Too bad we never got physical together

Well, at least you get to  fantasize of you and her getting physical even though it may never happen in real life.  Take it from me.  I used to fantasize about me and Tevin making love but I know that it will never happen.  I wanted to though.

I used to have a big crush on Davey Jones from the Monkees. :)

I never really crushed on musians...and all my music crushes were also on TV...go figure.... so I'll just repost the albums here

My earliest would have to be Olivia Newton-John....followed by Carly Simon. Although I did go through a stage where I tried to either wear my hair, walk, sing etc like David Essex...and David Cassidy!

  Rick Springfield!!  :-* He was almost my first concert ever!!

Damn, Jack Wagner was fine as hell back in the 80s.  I remember him replacing Rick Springfield onGeneral Hospital.  I like his song, AAAALLLLLLLL IIIIIIIIII NEEEEEEEEED

Back in the late 70s, my first crush was on Kate Bush. Even an advertising poster of her was banned by London Transport back then.

I can't believe I forgot Rick Springfield....he was also my first rock concert....and of course I used to crush on Shaun Cassidy.

My sister had a big Shaun Cassidy poster in her room.  It was Shaun in football togs.  I think it was one of his more popular posters.  I just couldn't understand when she fell so hard for Steven Tyler.  I thought he looked like a woman...a big ugly gross woman!  How was I to know?  I guess you had to be a female!
:P

Max we don't always agree but you and I definitely see eye to eye on the Steven Tyler thing...especially the gross part  ;D

Same here.  Steven Tyler has always skeeved me out.  I saw Aerosmith in concert and he spit right on the stage...that made it worse.

I used to have a big crush on Davey Jones from the Monkees. :)


You've been holding out on me!!!!  I didn't know you had a thing for the Monkees.

I've been (although closeted at various ages) a fan of Bobby Vinton.  It started when I was 3. :)

  My sis too.  And Leif Garrett and Tommy Shaw...

  My best friend's crush was Pat Benatar...

  First music celeb crush...I have no idea...I don't think I had any.  Only actresses...

Annie Haslam, then not long after, Dale Bozzio.

My friend was into Leif.  Tommy Shaw lived on Niles-Buchanan Rd in my hometown (a LONG time ago)

heck ya..Davey was dreamy! I used to watch the show all the time!

I was more of a Mickey girl myself.....I have always had a thing for drummers. ;D

Daryl Braithwaite and Eric Faulkner  :P

I saw Micky when he played Charlemagne in the off broadway version of Pippin.  I almost had a cardiac because I realized he's getting a little bald.  He's still pretty much the same Micky . . . except for the thinning hair. ;D

;D Dolenz....  you know... I liked Peter... but now when I look back he just always looked goofy....or was he stoned?  ;)

Apologies + K

When I was a younger, it seems like I had more "older man" music celebrity crushes than "closer to my age" crushes.  I guess it's because in the early to mid 80s, the "closer to my age" music celebrites were too young to make a name for themselves in the music world until the late 80s and early 90s when The Boys (Dial My Heart) and Tevin Campbell came along, but before them, it was mostly "older man" music celebrity crushes like Michael Jackson, Bobby Brown, and Jeffrey Osbourne.

Bobby Sherman
David Cassidy
Donny Osmond
Tony DeFranco
Brett Hudson

Peter has Asperger's  which explains his slightly goofy behavior.  Did you hear he has cancer? :\'(

Did you see 'The Price is Right' the other day?  Jack Wagner came out wearing only a towel LOL
He came out several times more, the final of which was to present the last showcase ;D

Daryl Braithwaite


I have one of his CDs.  I forget what the name of it is though

I remember most of the girls I went to school with had a crush on these ones..
Brett Hudson..is that one of the Hudson brothers?

Thanks! I bet Drew would switch teams for Jack Wagner  :)  ;D


Hell, I'd switch teams for Jack Wagner.  He's "All I Need" :D

you get karma for that!  :)

Hey - good man!  :D

Edge, Rise ? He's just released a new acoustic album called The Lemon Tree with brilliant versions of his solo hits and also from when he fronted the band Sherbet. You might remember "Howzat" ?

Yes. He is the youngest of the Hudson Brothers

I saw that.  The look on Drew's face when Jack opened the towel was priceless. ;D

   My sis too.  And Leif Garrett and Tommy Shaw...



Yup, my sister also had a thing for Leif.  She played his "Runaround Sue" 45 until it wore out. 
Hey, hey, hum-da, hum-da, hey, hey....


Toni Basil?

Say now, if you like Toni Basil, here's a tip, you can see her buck naked in "Easy Rider" (the acid trip sequence).  It's only for about 0.5 seconds, but it's all there!

My first music celebrity crush was definitely Deborah Harry!

'Edge' from 1988.  I got it because the hits 'As the Days Go By' and 'All I Do' both qualified for Canadian Content.  Over here, Sherbet had no hits, but they did chart 2 minors in the US with 'Howzat' and 'I Have the Skill' (as The Sherbs)

Jewel is mine.

Donny Osmond

ONJ Forever.  :-*

Just say no, Leif!

ONJ Forever.   :-*

Amen! 

Amen! 


ONJ never did anything for me.  She seemed like she belonged on top of a wedding cake.  Debbie Harry gave me impure thoughts...lots of 'em.  Of course, if my fantasies came true, I wouldn't have know what to do with it.  We're talking the shower scene in "Weird Science" here!
:-[

I can understand a crush with both of them.

However, ONJ always seemed like the type of girl you could take home to meet your parents.

Debbie on the other hand you would not, because you would be afraid she would run off with your dad.  ;D

I forgot to mention Linda Ronstadt as well, she was something back then.  :P

The Queen of rock for a period of time.

Jon Bon Jovi, in all his big-haired glory.

I don't think you ever quite get over your first love.  *sigh*

Good question. :) Mine would be a tossup between Paula Abdul and Amy Grant back in 1991.

Can't think of many around my age that were singers. Then again I was only 9-10, so most of my crushes were on someone older, lol (i.e. teen girls and younger adult women).
