"NubianNewYorkers" our Yahoo Group. The 24,000 plus members have vast knowledge and experiences and our group is a place where we discuss all sorts of topics. Recently, I asked the members about their first celebrity crushes..

QUESTION:Think back, when you were a little kid growing up - As best as you can remember, and speaking HONESTLY, Who were your first MALE and FEMALE celebrity crushes?

Here is just a small sample of how others have answered.. did you have the same? Is there somebody you need to mention? Post a comment below to add your own..

@NUBIANNEWYORKER (I) said:

FEMALE- Were LINDA CARTER, because Wonder Woman was sexy to me for some reason and JANET JACKSON because I liked "Penny" (Her character on good times), she was the most popular girl of color around my age on tv and in entertainment at the time.. In my adult life I had the pleasure of meeting her and she was even MORE sweet and down to earth than I expected and I still thinks she's adorable today.

MALE- TODD BRIDGES, when I as a kid was a pretty cute kid.. the boy could sing and dance and I liked him. LEIF GARRETT- I probably spelled his name wrong but when I was a kid there used to be really androgynous pics of leif garret and b4 I really knew what my adult tastes would be, he was cute to me.

PETER BRADY- that's the character's name, I dont even know the actor's name.. I liked him because I watched Brady Bunch EVERYDAY.. I saw those people more than I saw my friends and PETER (the middle son) was the best looking person in that family.. everyday I would say to myself.."How did he get into that family" .. and he seemed to me, the most likely character to end up becoming gay.

-----@Uncluttered said:FEMALE- Natalie Cole! Her voice. Her eyes. Her journey. Her style. Her voice. Her wordplay (RECTIFIED MY MIND...INSEPARABLE...UNPREDICTABLE...I was going crazy listening to a Black woman use those words!)
MALE- John Amos AKA James Evans! This thick, sexy MOUNTAIN of a man used to make me crazy EVERY TIME HE ENTERED THE ROOM on "Good Times!" Corduroy pants. Velour shirt. TIGHT! And his nose, especially when he was pissed, that STRONG SNARL...MY MY MY!

@bbetcamus said:

Female- the little girl who used to play Archie Bunker's niece on All In The Family after Edith left him/the show. Don't know why, but used to have the biggest crush on her and those bangs and pig tails of hers, LOL!!

Male- can't recall even having one growing up, as I didn't "grow" into my same-sex identity until I was a teen-ager. By then, my only crushes were my classmates, LOL!!

@ricasdean33 said:

FEMALE: Teresa Graves -"Get Christie Love"; it seemed as if the introduction to the show, was like she was being coy, and sweet, but if you fucked up and got arrested, "You were under arrest, Suga!!!"

Angie Dickinson - "Police Woman"; I don't what it was---wait, I know, her breast back then wearing those tight pullovers & blouses would turn me on, bi-curiously, but that faded eventually. LOL

MALE: Greg Morris - "Mission Impossible"; his swagger back then was a turn on, and for me to see a Black man as a covert operations comrade with Peter Graves, showed me strength that I could look up to(on T.V., that is, Dad was #1).

John Amos - "Good Times", & "Roots"; his strength turned me on in both the show and the T.V. Movie(and I actually saw him in a hotel lobby in Jersey where I worked---he didn't "tower" over the folks he was with). LOL

Fred Dryer - "Hunter"; his macho(or better yet, his machismo) stance as Sgt. Rick Hunter was a turn on at my young age, though erections may have came few in numbers---wasn't old enough!!! LOL

And to all the crazy Republicans who will vote for Romney because they think he can beat

President Obama. The Obama campaign will eat this idiot alive.

... Republican politicians will be in WORSE shape if Romney wins because there will

be no Obama to blame anymore.

Romney doesn't have core values... He's not some conservative hero. He would end up being a disappointment to right-wing nuts &

a unifying force for all of us on the left who oppose him.

Don Cheadle Gets "Cheeky" In HOUSE OF LIES

noreply@blogger.com (NubianNewYorker Creator Of "NubiaNewYorkers") — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 04:45:00 +0000

You remember my Blog post on Sept 4th 2010 about DON CHEADLE's nice ass..

You can check out that old post [HERE]

Well, Sunday Jan 8th 2012 was the start of his new show HOUSE OF LIES on SHOWTIME

Where, we saw THIS....

He's getting older.. but still got a nice butt in my opinion.

And its a cute TV Show.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another culturally interesting thing about the show is the fact that he has a gay son (pictured below in a skirt)

House of Lies is an American comedy television series created by Matthew Carnahan. The show, which premiered on Showtime on January 8, 2012, is based on the book, House of Lies: How Management Consultants Steal Your Watch and Then Tell You the Time, written by Martin Kihn, a former consultant at Booz Allen Hamilton. It follows a group of management consultants who stop at nothing to get business deals done, even if it calls for extremes.

THE REAL MITT ROMNEY
