    some crushes I had in the 80s died before the decade did, like Kip Winger. But others, have grown over the years. Like my undying lust for Jason Bateman.

    ADAM ANT!!!!

    OMG... Yes!

    with or without makeup, but in his pirate outfit - definitely

    He was the johnny depp of our day. I actually heard one of his songs at lunch in a sushi restaurant outside of Detroit last week. weird.

    enjoy:

    Roy Rosello and Ray Reyes from Menudo.... I used to live in Puerto Rico and then visited my dad in my teens when he still lived there. I was so addicted to Menudo and got to see them in concert in San Juan.... People still tease me about that group LOL I can't believe how hooked I was! :tongue:

    Actually who am I kidding. All these crushes still exist. There were also more obscure ones, like Dave Vanian of The Damned and Robert Smith of The Cure before he got fat and boring.

    John Taylor of Duran Duran

    Val Kilmer in Willow

    Harrison Ford, as Indy or Han Solo

    Sebastian Bach of Skid Row, who is still damn pretty

    Davy Jones when the Monkees had their 20th reunion comeback. Funny thing is... at the time, I was about 14 and he was 45. And now he's married to someone younger than me. First I was too young for him, now I'm too old for him! :laugh:

    Corey Haim...first time I saw him was in License to Drive and then Lucas.

    RIP.

    Jonathan Brandis from Seaquest DSV, Ladybugs, Sidekicks.

    Also RIP :(

    Mike Vitar who was "Benny" in The Sandlot.

    My room was absolutely covered with pics from Tiger Beat and Big Bopper of Jonathan Brandis....

    I realize that some of these aren't technically "80's" teen heart throbs...but they were the ones I started falling in love with at the end of the 80's and early 90's ! :tongue:

    For some reason I also had a crush on Lea Thompson.

    Oh yes:

    lea_thompson_3.jpg

    Loved her in "Back to the Future" Just the right amount of girl next door mixed in with a bit of sluttiness. Perfect.
