Celebrity Crushes…

Filed Under Babbling 

Alright, I came clean yesterday and I mentioned my celebrity crushes. Yeah, I’ll own up to it.

I mean come on, who else would say that they have even the slightest crushes on Mika Brzezinski or Alison Stewart? Most likely before now, you’ve never even heard of either. I mean, who really has crushes on news anchors? It’d be like me admitting to a crush on Barbara Walters or Connie Chung or something, right?

The fact of the matter for me is that there’s something about the power that they have and the way they present themselves that draws me in that I’ll admit to a “crush.” Its not even as much of a “crush” as it is an awe with their presence. Well, not awe. I’m not drooling on the couch, but I like their collected personas and how they can present the news in such a fashion that its intelligent, to the point, and yet at the same time, they retain that sense of self that makes me feel that even though they’re an unbiased newswoman, they still have a strong opinion that they would tell you, but they’d have to kill you.

Of course, I’m not imagining either of them as a Bond girl coming out of the water in a bikini or anything, but I’m just sayin’ that looks aren’t everything: its all about the charisma and the way you wield it for me.

I really wasn’t going anywhere with this, but I’ll leave it as your Saturday question:
What sort of “off color” celebrity crushes do you have?
No, we’re not talking about Estelle Getty or Angela Lansbury, but something that’s maybe not someone that someone else might find the next “it girl.”
