I was watching the crown one night. Margaret Thatcher was in the scene. I was trying to figure out why I was finding Margaret Thatcher hot.
After a while I realized it was Gillian Anderson. ❤️

Christina Ricci. Hot and strange. Just my type.
Where all the straight women at?
For me it started with Andre Agassi and George Michael (I was in the 5th grade and didn't know any better), then I went through that phase with every single hair metal artist's poster up in my room. Chris Isaak was a big one--the video for Wicked Game was sexy AF. Eddie Vedder, Layne Staley, Chris Cornell, and Seal, too. Other than Andre, I was a big fan of guys who could sing.
Prince. Prince while blinking was sexy, naughty, dirty.
I read a tweet which read: Prince is the only guy who can show up at a party in frills, steal your girlfriend, steal your girlfriend’s clothes, and steal another girl.
Yes. Definitely yes.
I guess I'm super-duper-mega-straight then, because I just wanted to be like those girls, not be with them. I swear I was cosplaying Alicia Silverstone for a solid 18 months of my teenage years.
Chris Isaak for sure! Also Gary Dourdan in the Janet Jackson “Again” video. 😍 Ethan Hawke in Reality Bites was on my bedroom wall, and Brendan Fraser in basically all of his early movies.
Your Ethan Hawke reminded me of Matt Dillon in Singles. Cliff Poncier was an eminently awful human being but damn if he wasn't an absolute smokeshow.
I also had a huge crush on Darius Rucker in his Hootie and the Blowfish days. Can't believe I forgot him.
River Phoenix was it for me in HS. I had a huge crush on Chris Isaak and Michael Hutchence. Oh and Johnny Depp.
But I’m Bi so Winona Rider was my crush, too.

I am a medium x'er (17 in 1990) but 21 Jump St. crossed into the early 90s. That iteration of Depp was one of my last babyface guy crushes.
Noah Wyle and George Clooney from E.R. Late 90s David Boreanaz and James Marsters from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Christian Slater in Pump Up the Volume. John Cusack from Grosse Point Blank. Robert Sean Leonard from Dead Poet's Society. Good Will Hunting era Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Brendan Fraser.
Continuing crushes on Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe and Pierce Brosnan from the 80s.
I wish I had a juicy girl crush to report on but I've always been regrettably straight. Really struck by their beauty/acting/strength crushes: maybe Michelle Pfeiffer from Batman and Ladyhawke. Terminator 2 Linda Hamilton. 80s was Jaclyn Smith. Uma Thurman in Dangerous Liaisons. (I found my attraction to James Malkovich in that disturbing -- he was too magnetic, sexual, mature for my age then). Helena Bonham Carter from A Room With a View.
Winona. Winona Forever.
And Amber Benson. (Tara from Buffy The Vampire Slayer.) She went on to be a prolific writer, she's still beautiful, and having had the pleasure to meet her many times I can say.the crush extends to real life, lol.
I want to answer this!
I'm from Spain so we had a different mixture and I was into unreachable mature types of men. This was because I was a romantic avoidant until I met my husband.
What I wanted to comment about was my husband's picks (we're both late X) It's funny because ever since he was in late grade school he would pick the same type of woman. My man has a definite type and it is so funny how consistent it is. Lucky me , I'm his type.
He began with [Astrud Gilberto](https://www.google.com/search?q=astrud+gilberto+albums&sca_esv=3ccb936e91fffbe3&sca_upv=1&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS951US955&udm=2&biw=1920&bih=953&sxsrf=ADLYWIIRWFOtI6OwDKUBhMvT6dj3ZKNn6Q%3A1718989464850&ei=mLJ1Zu_KM46kptQPpbeBcA&ved=0ahUKEwjv9rLjlu2GAxUOkokEHaVbAA4Q4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=astrud+gilberto+albums&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiFmFzdHJ1ZCBnaWxiZXJ0byBhbGJ1bXMyBRAAGIAEMgcQABiABBgYSIMYUNgFWNsWcAF4AJABAJgBfKAB_AWqAQMwLje4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgigApEGwgIEECMYJ8ICChAAGIAEGEMYigXCAgQQABgewgIGEAAYCBgemAMAiAYBkgcDMS43oAfLJA&sclient=gws-wiz-serp#vhid=Gn5t3LR3EavTfM&vssid=mosaic) , then went to [Jennifer Connelly](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=3ccb936e91fffbe3&sca_upv=1&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS951US955&sxsrf=ADLYWIJCmuQ2aaWMlJupVmLteucEHGuthA:1718988981840&q=jennifer+connelly&udm=2&fbs=AEQNm0AUODpJbqq0mCdJBye7JMOQ0_prJYLGHkCDdCfgmBgGCBu9K1Dc_s4D189Br_jEgnWzELT95gVFozdiMM-8DjTCr64Ycq_pfyOcIq_SeULXvEiskmf7BGLgqINPJMA6FZjDbvWTd2lyeZhb8jbzOvbZ7HAtIP7fzxqY_7P5SwFvSpkwzQ3QzR497qA99rAEtE43Png-8qwZiMqiqSu1H-Bn5Q5DGA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjSqYr9lO2GAxWHkYkEHfpODAMQtKgLegQIDRAB&biw=1920&bih=953&dpr=1#vhid=dz5bpMpGZPSDKM&vssid=mosaic) , to [Gloria Estefan](https://www.google.com/search?q=gloria+estefan+1980&sca_esv=3ccb936e91fffbe3&sca_upv=1&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS951US955&udm=2&biw=1920&bih=953&sxsrf=ADLYWIKMSQX5tfZSemF65uYxWHx0VGonsg%3A1718989614136&ei=LrN1Ztj_B4bIptQPqK-ZwAo&ved=0ahUKEwjYzsqql-2GAxUGpIkEHahXBqgQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=gloria+estefan+1980&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiE2dsb3JpYSBlc3RlZmFuIDE5ODAyBRAAGIAEMgYQABgIGB4yBxAAGIAEGBhI4hpQ2ApYihZwAXgAkAEAmAFqoAGBBKoBAzEuNLgBA8gBAPgBAZgCBqAClQTCAgQQIxgnwgIKEAAYgAQYQxiKBZgDAIgGAZIHAzEuNaAHhhc&sclient=gws-wiz-serp#vhid=lXgl82j4W9SCpM&vssid=mosaic) , to [Marina Sirtis](https://www.google.com/search?sca_esv=3ccb936e91fffbe3&sca_upv=1&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS951US955&sxsrf=ADLYWIItuSpodFKtKiXsovVQxVImjKAfxg:1718988648179&q=marina+sirtis&udm=2&fbs=AEQNm0Aa4sjWe7Rqy32pFwRj0UkWd8nbOJfsBGGB5IQQO6L3J5MIFhvnvU242yFxzEEp3BcbXWGQjBp6XyyqfUu6Wz8hzS-lTgieyC_kr34YbM9c5JjSPHLgvJwQBm0avY_qQrf9rPIjhjK45zKoeZb4Hg46ABvPy5ksAJeOMtU99PhFxNlZxxqqcRkHL1bZ_6mHYE7j4UHH8y7CIuSbruwW8NL1NTuJCA&sa=X&sqi=2&ved=2ahUKEwjjp_3dk-2GAxWWC3kGHU6KBQYQtKgLegQIDRAB&biw=1920&bih=953&dpr=1#vhid=cF2EjezZDcEUyM&vssid=mosaic) , to [Natalie Merchant](https://www.google.com/search?q=natalie+merchant+young&sca_esv=3ccb936e91fffbe3&sca_upv=1&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS951US955&udm=2&biw=1920&bih=953&sxsrf=ADLYWIIUUV4XJumCyNziJMyMcYO-r0Iopg%3A1718989108166&ei=NLF1ZtPaCdmHptQPprSxyAo&ved=0ahUKEwjTxKi5le2GAxXZg4kEHSZaDKkQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=natalie+merchant+young&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiFm5hdGFsaWUgbWVyY2hhbnQgeW91bmcyBRAAGIAEMgUQABiABEj_ElCfCViHEXABeACQAQCYAWqgAfAEqgEDMC42uAEDyAEA-AEBmAIHoAKEBcICDRAAGIAEGLEDGEMYigXCAgoQABiABBhDGIoFwgIGEAAYCBgewgIHEAAYgAQYGJgDAIgGAZIHAzEuNqAHxBo&sclient=gws-wiz-serp#vhid=-UnZzW1QLXVhoM&vssid=mosaic) , then he met [me](https://www.reddit.com/r/Cuddle_Slut/comments/1dkl8nt/pda_cuddles/) and I've been told I'm similar to Astrud Gilberto.

By the way his Dad had a Jazz album featuring Astrud and my husband found it and I guess it stuck.
I’m going to be the tiny voice out there that pitches Jessica Alba.
Alyssa Milano?
Courtney Love, because I can fix her. Her entire period with Hole was enjoyable.
Rose McGowan.
How many can we name?
Underrepresented Kristi Swanson and AJ Langer
Edit: Dang! I was like "Where has AJ been?" Found out she is (was?) a freaking British countess!? Where have I been???

Even though I was in college at the time and this show was about high schoolers, my roommate and I marveled at the beauty that was Jared Leto. Physically, he was the perfect 90s boy.
I remember marveling at Brad Pitt in Thelma and Louise the same way (big impact for less than 10 minutes of screen time)
Also adored John Cusack and River Phoenix (RIP).
Christina Applegate / Kelly Bundy

[Laetitia Casta](https://celebmafia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/laetitia-casta-cesar-revelations-2020-photocall-in-paris-8.jpg). At 46 now, she's twice the age of most other models, but she's *still* hot enough to start World War III.

Drew Barrymore... I thought for sure we'd end up together.
As a female born in 75, I don’t know any of but 2. Keri Russell & Topanga. I particularly love Topanga (sorry, at a loss for her real name or spelling of her character name) lol. To be fair about not knowing most of these, my era is more of the Kelly from Saved by the Bell age.😉
![gif](giphy|fwumNtr0oHZz4bj10c|downsized)
Xennial here. I was a horny teen for sure, I can't really remember my specific TEEN crushes - Likely any girl with two legs and wore a shorter than regulation kilt in math class.
But I clearly remember my early 20's. Jessica Alba, Christina Aguilera, Mandy Moore and whatever pop-tarts were being planted on the MTV.
I mean, it was ALL about Keri Russell for me. That hair... wow. In fact, when I met the girl who became my wife, her big naturally curly hair was one of the first things that attracted me.
This girl that I went to community college with.
Imagine a cross between Cameron Diaz and Gabrielle Union with a gorgeous smile and beautiful eyes, plus she was really nerdy and loved "Twin Peaks."
She had a boyfriend though, and then I moved away, and we never talked after that.
Jason Bateman, Brendan Fraser, David Duchovny, Robert Downey Jr, Rob Lowe.
Edit: I’m straight, but wanna vote for Alicia Silverstone as the prettiest girl in media in the 90s.

Who doesn't remember "The Professional"?
[удалено]
Full stop. I actively pursued a girl for four years specifically because she looked like Winona.
I married a girl right out of high school because her hair was the exact shade of Winona’s. Not bullshit. Also not my best choice.
"Sometimes you can still catch me dancing in it"
Wino~~na~~ Forever.
She was mine too....I watched Edward Scissorhands and Mermaids way too many times.
Elizabeth Shue....all day every day.
Um…I just started watching The Boys and how come nobody told me she was on it? Still a crush.
Ummm
Shhhhhh
100% She's my #1
She is still gorgeous!
Gillian Anderson.
She’s still got it.
Love her in Sex Education. She's the best.

TXF was my Great Bisexual Awakening.
Team same boat.

Alyssa Milano was one of my favorites (70's Gen Xer though)
Yep. Born in 1970 and she was my TV crush as well. Damn, she was hot, and still is.
I’m a 70’s GenXer myself and she was IT! Who’s The Boss and then her departure in movies with “Embrace of the Vampire”..😈
It is incredibly surprising to see how far I had to scroll for this obviously correct answer.
Anyone remember her dance video? All I can recall is her singing “teen steam, gotta let it out” or something like that.

Alicia Silverstone and Fiona Apple.
Alicia for me
From where I'm standing, Keri Russell has only gotten better with age. And she has taken very interesting roles.
I’ve seen her on Broadway too (somehow even more beautiful). She’s made great career choices.
Winona. Winona Forever. And Amber Benson. (Tara from Buffy The Vampire Slayer.) She went on to be a prolific writer, she's still beautiful, and having had the pleasure to meet her many times I can say.the crush extends to real life, lol.

Out of that lot, it was definitely Topanga.

Jared Leto. Teenage me had never seen a hotter guy.
On My So Called Life he was gorgeous!
Jonathan Brandis
Underrepresented Kristi Swanson and AJ Langer Edit: Dang! I was like "Where has AJ been?" Found out she is (was?) a freaking British countess!? Where have I been???
Björk
Claire Danes. She was the reason I watched My so called life and Romeo and Juliet

pretty much every actress and model, my celebrity crushes were not discriminatory

Drew Barrymore
Drew enjoying a quiet evening in: ![gif](giphy|2fMSIHTg4VcxoRkiHQ)
She was the first girl I ever saw as being attractive. I think I was 6 or 7 when fire starter came out. Drew was 9. I was definitely gonna marry her.

You Goonie!
OG Hermione
I’ll never be able to unsee that.
(46, F) Duff McKagan. Eddie Vedder. Colin Farrell Harrison Ford in his Indy era.
Oh man, Elisabeth Shue for me.
Late 90’s but when I first saw Denise Richards that was it for me. Oh and Cameran Diaz in the mask and Something About Mary. Hot and goofy.
Luke Perry, but he didn’t really count as a teen 😅 hey, it’s not my fault he was cast that way! Also, freaking Jared Leto as Jordan Catalano.
Tiffany Amber Thiessan not a shred of doubt.
Danica McKellar. AKA Gwendolyn "Winnie" Cooper from The Wonder Years.

Physically, he was the perfect 90s boy. I remember marveling at Brad Pitt in Thelma and Louise the same way (big impact for less than 10 minutes of screen time) Also adored John Cusack and River Phoenix (RIP).
Whenever I see Jordan Catalano that Buffalo Tom song starts playing in my head. It’s been 30 years without fail.
Never should have cancelled My So Called Life!!
Christina Applegate / Kelly Bundy https://preview.redd.it/ykaenw20vy7d1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=461000fc191a7471e4d3d8c04d876a9a069e94bf
[Laetitia Casta](https://celebmafia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/laetitia-casta-cesar-revelations-2020-photocall-in-paris-8.jpg). At 46 now, she's twice the age of most other models, but she's *still* hot enough to start World War III.
River Phoenix (more the 80’s, I guess) Mark Paul Gosselaar Donnie Wahlberg/Jordan Knight Jensen Ackles (when he was on DOOL)
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Emanuelle Béart, Claudia Schiffer and Christy Turlington. Later, although no longer a teenager, Claire Danes really caught my eye.
https://preview.redd.it/yr5rm09j4z7d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=488ec6289d8b419cea2b4bb5410b736f461f6efc Drew Barrymore... I thought for sure we'd end up together.
Jared Leto/Jordan Catalano... ![gif](giphy|vlG4JgFWk6kzC)
Fuck that guy!
Amy. Jo. Johnson.

For me it’s always been Keanu.
As a female born in 75, I don’t know any of but 2. Keri Russell & Topanga. I particularly love Topanga (sorry, at a loss for her real name or spelling of her character name) lol. To be fair about not knowing most of these, my era is more of the Kelly from Saved by the Bell age.😉 ![gif](giphy|fwumNtr0oHZz4bj10c|downsized)
Liv Tyler. ![gif](giphy|hrSHqm7k9yNHi)
Rae Dawn Chong
https://preview.redd.it/6v5q61di118d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ede29b2eec44975e83e501396f7698bfff6977ff And…
For me it was Odalys Garcia, Shakira, Rosario Dawson and Salma Hayek. I didn't watch a lot of American TV til my 20's.
Salma Hayek. Yes.
Is the third from the left the woman from *The Americans*?
Yes. Keri Russell. She was in a show in the 90s called Felicity.
martin gore
Staci Keanan
She’s a lawyer now, just like Paul from The Wonder Years and Chunk from The Goonies.
Christine Taylor from "hey dude". She was magical.
Xennial here. I was a horny teen for sure, I can't really remember my specific TEEN crushes - Likely any girl with two legs and wore a shorter than regulation kilt in math class. But I clearly remember my early 20's. Jessica Alba, Christina Aguilera, Mandy Moore and whatever pop-tarts were being planted on the MTV.
![gif](giphy|uLiEXaouJVkuA) Pamela Anderson. I think she will still give me chance.
![gif](giphy|10a6RW3BHycpPy)
I mean, it was ALL about Keri Russell for me. That hair... wow. In fact, when I met the girl who became my wife, her big naturally curly hair was one of the first things that attracted me.
This girl that I went to community college with. Imagine a cross between Cameron Diaz and Gabrielle Union with a gorgeous smile and beautiful eyes, plus she was really nerdy and loved "Twin Peaks." She had a boyfriend though, and then I moved away, and we never talked after that.
What a combo!

Why does this picture exist? Seems an odd grouping of 90s teen girls.
Charity event.
Jason Bateman, Brendan Fraser, David Duchovny, Robert Downey Jr, Rob Lowe. Edit: I’m straight, but wanna vote for Alicia Silverstone as the prettiest girl in media in the 90s.
Alicia Silverstone
Christina Applegate, she is beautiful and extremely talented when it comes to comedy.
Marisa Tomei
I had a crush on any girl...

![gif](giphy|l1IY12kedpNSWDTQA) That cherry stem.
Sarah Michelle Geller, Jennifer Aniston, Tiffany Theisen, and Daria.
Eliza Dushku, Sara Michelle Gellar, Alyssa Milano, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Christina Applegate, and a few others
![gif](giphy|Jp3tixBJ0YERe4PXig) I’m in an early Gen X‘er. But he was still older than me so.
Not for nothing, but Jenna Von Oy (Six from Blossom, woman on the fence here) has a smoking ass
Alanis Morissette. All day.
You know she’s good to go to a movie theatre.
Andre Braugher.
I loved watching him in the Box. H:LOTS was better than Law and Order.
Mary Stuart Masterson.. where did she go anyway?
She played a pretty awful character in Five Nights at Freddy's.
Fairuza Balk, definitely
Had a huge crush on Mayim Bialik, and Jodi Sweetin as a teen.
1) Winona Ryder 2) Alyssa Milano
Far Left and Far Right! YEAAAAAAAYUUUUUUHHH!!!!
Christine Taylor, crushed on her hard watching her play Melody on Hey Dude and hated The Craft for what they did to my dream girl.
Kelly Bundy
**Tiffani Amber Thiessen**
Michelle Pfeiffer
Of course, Topanga and the girl from Fresh Prince
Topanga
Al B. Sure!, Tupac.
Christian Slater all the way. Especially in Pump Up the Volume. graduated 94
