9 of my weird celeb crushes that I will never apologise for

Jade Hayden

weird crushes

I have weird taste in men.

Like, really weird.

Like, so weird that I won’t go into the logistics of it right now because we’d be here all day (and this would be a very different article), but it’s weird alright.

And naturally, this weirdness has manifested itself twofold in my celebrity crushes.

They’re not regular, they’re not common, and some of them are even not acceptable. But I will never apologise for them.

This is them.

1. Louis Theroux 

Louis Theroux is a stunning individual.

He was stunning back in the Weird Weekend days, he was stunning when he was checking out all those gangs in America, and he’s stunning now tweeting up a storm on Twitter dot com.

Louis is smart, Louis is funny, Louis knows how to capture a nation’s attention for 50 minutes on a Wednesday night.

The perfect guy.

2. Simon Harris 

Look, the Minister for Health needs no introduction.

People have been hopping off Harris ever since he played an absolute blinder during the campaign to repeal the eighth, but I’ve been there since the start, lads.

We’re talking back in the less than 500 followers on Instagram days. We’re talking the everyone calling him a vampire on Twitter days.

We’re talking old school.

3. Liam Neeson but only as Oskar Schindler 

It’s the black and white filter, it does it for me.

4. Nathan Fielder 

You probably haven’t heard of Nathan Fielder before now but you will have by the end of this paragraph.

Nathan is the star of Comedy Central’s Nathan For You  – a show which you can learn all about here.

It’s funny, it’s smart, it’s painfully addictive, and it features Nathan who is Canadian and adorable and you definitely would, don’t act as if you wouldn’t lads, c’mon.

5. Denzel Washington 

Sorry but Denzel needs no apology, have you even seen American Gangster? 

6. Jeff Goldblum in The Fly

Great film, great man, get transition from a human being into a rather large insect.

There’s nothing not to love about The Fly and the presence of Jeff Goldblum makes it even more enjoyable.

Many would argue that Goldblum was at peak-fanciableness in Jurassic Park but I would argue different.

I would also argue that he is still very much on top of his game in this year of 2018. Unstoppable.

7. Tony Cantwell

Clongowes video. That’s it.

8. David Morrissey 

If you don’t know who David Morrissey is, he’s the governor from The Walking Dead who wore the eye patch and had a stunning southern accent even though he’s painfully British.

Grand.

9. Colin Firth 

IMO, Colin Firth is not a controversial crush.

He’s Mr Darcy, like. Mr Darcy is hot. Colin Firth is hot. He wears glasses a lot in those Kingsman movies and he looks class.

There is nothing questionable about fancying Colin Firth and yet my decision has been long ripped by the Her team and so, he has regrettably earned his place on this list.

Honourable mention for: T.I. 

Have you seen the Life Your Life video?

Watch it.
