My Inappropriate Crush of the Week
I kind of have a crush on Jedward. Yes. John and Edward: The twins from The X-factor. Shocking.
I know, I know, I’m probably old enough to be their mother (I’m 5 years older than them… that counts as a whole generation in my native Swansea! haha) and I’m definitely old enough to know better.
But I just can’t get enough of cocky guys with funny hair and questionable taste in trousers… Probably why all the boys I fancied at school turned out to be gay.
It’s the ‘boyband type’ that are my weakness. Mass exaggeration. The ‘boy band’ type are my fatal flaw; an obsession that will inevitably lead to my timeless death by cheesy music. So when I turned on the TV a few months back to discover these two blond lovelies singing classic Backstreet Boys songs and infectiously grinning away like they were High School Musical extras, it was love at first sight.
It didn’t matter that they were tone deaf or that they had hair like my aunty. All that mattered was that they were fun, and that there was two of them! Score!
Since then Jedward have totally made me reassess life and wonder: Why don’t all fun things come in twos? Imagine how much better New Moon would have been if there were TWO Edwards and TWO Jacobs to gawp at. How much better would life be if there were TWO Christmases a year? TWO Summer holidays! TWO weekends a week!
Now I see a hot guy walking down the street and think “Oh but there’s only one of you! Shame! Why can’t all boys have twins!?” One hot guy just isn’t enough anymore, and probably never will be again.
Yes, the boyband types have been ruining my life since 1996 and continue to do so even now that I'm in my 20s.
So, who are your inappropriate crushes of the moment? Please make me feel better about mine!

Justin Bieber, I'm 5 or 6 years old than him :(
I don't think it's a crush of the week though, it's been going on a few months now.. lol
Ick....I DON'T like the hair! Not at all!
@shillykins - lol, glad i'm not the only one
@HollowTendencies@xanga - LOL, there's just something about him <3
My always inappropriate crush- Johnny Depp. Him- late 40s, Me- not quite 20.
I wouldn't say this is a crush of the week, but I've had a long time crush on Alex Pettyfer *drools* and I'm like 5 years older than him, haha. I think he's 18/19-ish.
@MsKittyCatty@xanga - Same. x__x
@MsKittyCatty@xanga - I AGREE, Johnny = MMMmmmm MMmmmm good. Haha.
As for John and Edward...ew, lol. Not because they're too young, but because, well...just look at them! O_o
Good god, they're ugly.
SUPER JUNIOR lol (minus a few ugly ones)
hawt guys come in 13s.
nah i like straight men
@cornyonacob@xanga - i thought i was over boy bands when i realized the n'sync and bsb of my childhood were now *old*. then my friend introduced me to korean music.
super junior is amazing.
Wow. Like, I understand that girls might choose Matt Damon or Johnny Depp over me, but THEM?
All hope is lost.
@cornyonacob@xanga - LMFAO.
Jedward as much as i dislike them, they're pretty cute. Minus the pineapple resembling hair, they're even cuter :P
Two weekends a week would be great...
Don't have any crushes right now. Would be nice to get one though heh.
@MsKittyCatty@xanga - @TakingxOverxMe@xanga - @LauraG0929@xanga - Yesss!! Johnny is def my boo! These boys are too pretty...I like my inappropriate crushes to be grizzly and chiseled, rough and tumble looking and whatnot. I'm bizarrely terrified that Johnny and Angelina Jolie are set to film a new chock-full-of-sex-scenes movie and she'll steal him just like she stole Brad! (I don't really see what all the fuss is about that chick but apparently people love her) (also I don't know why I'm "terrified" since he's taken already...)
Hayden Panettiere. mmmmmmm
Boy bands don't get my juices flowing.
Oh wow, those boys are cute!
Taylor lautner!!! ufff i love him but he´s 17 and i´m 25 =/
jedward doesn't do it for me.
HMMMMMMMM. yeah, probably johnny depp.
he's a heartbreaker, that old kid <3333333
