Where are they now?

I decided to start off my first blog by honoring the crushes of my younger years. We've reminisced about many of them in the t.v. room, and because of that I sometimes wonder, "Where is he now?" So here we go...

  1. Jonathan Taylor Thomas aka, "JTT"
  • Where you know him from: Home Improvement, Tom and Huck, and my favorite, the voice of young Simba in The Lion King.
  • Where he is now: At age 27, we don't know if he really is gay. He also crushed my heart when he refused to be in the "Home Improvement" series finale.

     2.  Erik Von Detten
  • Where you know him: Brink, The Princess Diaries, and oddly enough, the voice of Sid in Toy Story.
  • Why you loved him: His hair was always long, but never too long, and he always had that flawless tan. Basically, he looked like he just came home from the beach. After doing some much needed stalking, I learned that he bought his own sail boat at age 12. He can take me sailing any day...

   3.  Skeet Ulrich
  • My first, and only, encounter with Skeet was watching him as the psychotic ghost-faced killer in the original "Scream" movie. I don't know how mentally insane it makes me to have a crush on the psycho killer who's choice weapon is a knife, but then I look at him and think, "Who could blame me?"
  • Where is he now: On a whim, I decided to watch 'Law and Order: Los Angeles' and my heart skipped a beat. There was skeet, looking just as beautiful, and this time he's playing with the good guys.

  4.  Leonardo DiCaprio
  • Let's face it, Leo was the older man in all of our lives. I remember the first time I saw "Titanic." I blushed when I realized he was in the backseat of a car, naked, with a girl. I played the soundtrack on repeat for weeks and weeks...
  • Leo still has a special place in my heart, 12 years later. It doesn't matter that 'Inception' confused the shit out of me, because Leo helped everything make sense.

  5.  Hanson (Zac, Taylor, and Issac)
  • They sang their way into our hearts with their girly voices. Every girl in the world squeeled with excitement when "Mmm Bop" came on the radio. Let's face it, we would settle with any one of the brothers...
