| Firstly, we'll need a warning. A caution. I'm a fangirl. Sometimes it's not so obvious, sometimes I even give the impression that I'm a mild-mannered, upright and dignified citizen who appraises an actor merely on the basis of the talent he lends to his chosen profession. I can mingle harmlessly amongst those who would pour scorn on those who would dare to entertain any deviant (and potentially embarrassing!) thoughts about those who we all admire. I can think of a few Alan Rickman sites like that, for a start. But all of this is an elaborately disguised front to conceal the fully-fledged, rabid drooling fangirl that lurks beneath. An apology is offered to those who thought I knew better. And let's begin. I've never really been into superstars. I'm mad on me music, but I've never been into the groupie scene, there's never really been an artist who I'd proverbially throw my underwear at (except maybe Elvis. when he was alive. obviously). Not even, I'm sad to say, Tom Jones. Although that may be because Mr Jones currently reminds me of Jeremy Beadle. Which is bizarre. Lose the beard, Tom. There's never even been a Super A-List Hollywood star who I'm mad on. Even the aforementioned Alan Rickman doesn't see himself as a Hollywood hotshot. And he's the closest. Now, I wouldn't say no to Brad Pitt (c'mon, can you trust someone who can?) but he just doesn't get me into a dizzy fangirl trance (again, I'm sensing beard issues actually). The likes of Leonardo Dicaprio are far too pretty for me. So instead....I surf an alternative wave. The interesting thing is, I tended to fancy the boys at school who I thought were a bit different. that everyone else would look over becuase they hadn't seen the full potential of this particular lad. and then, lo and behold, i find that quite a few girls share the same feeling. One of (apparently) the gawkiest boys in my primary school had at least four girls completely lusting after him. it seems the same applies to celebrities. If he exists, someone out there fancies him, and no doubt you'll find that someone on the internet eventually. Hell, he doesn't even need to exist. |
| You fancy *who*? |
| I won't deny that I have unusual tastes. Here's where I attempt to explain my undying, er, love (ok, lust as well) for particular celebrities. And maybe even convert some people to my way of thinking... |
| Firstly, I may as well discuss the celebrity that brings up the most interesting reactions. The one who requires the most lengthy - and gushing - explanation. Mr Christopher Jonathan Barrie. |
