Subject: Your Top Ten Celebirty Date List of the 80's!

Written By: apollonia1986 on 06/14/10 at 11:14 pm

Hi Guys!

I was wondering, if you had the chance to go on a date with ten--not all at once of course-- of your favorite celebrities form the 80s, who would they be, and why?

I just think it would be fun to see who picks whom.

And to be fair, I'll start:

1--Michael Jackson. Of course. I mean the biggest star of the decade, I gotta go out with that. And I don't care if I get the Triumph circa 1980 Michael or Bad circa Michael from 1989, it's all good. Just kindly skip over Michael in 1986 when he was transitioning from Thriller to Bad era. His hair got a little too funkly as he was growing it out.  ::)

2--Prince. Of course. I just want to see how many inches taller than him I really am. And if I could request a special Prince, I'd like the extra dirty Prince of 1981 or the extremely androgynous Prince of the Lovesexy era--1988.

3--Marlon Jackson: With lips like his, I'd just have to see them in person. His lips to me are like the way other people see J.Lo's booty--it completes him.

4--Randy Jackson. Michael’s brother was cute back in the day. And I just don’t think people mention him as much as the others. Tito gets mentioned more than him! LOL!

5--Morris Day. I know you think I’m clear out crazy, but as annoying as heck as the man is, back around 1983, Morris was pretty good looking. And as long as he doesn’t mention a brass waterbed, I won’t have to slap him.

6--Michael J. Fox. I always found him kind of cute and nowadays, I’m proud of him for being a spokes person for Parkinson’s Disease.

7--El DeBarge. He was just so incredibly cute in the 80s. And his hair was amazing.. And it would be nice to see him BEFORE he had the 10 kids.

8--Johnny Depp. Oh yeah. Mr. 21 Jump Street. Need I say more?

9--Rockwell. He was a stunner. Plus he was tight with the Jacksons till Jermaine broke up with his sister.

10--Eddie Murphy, just because he was wickedly, outrageously funny and I LOVE to laugh.


Everybody please add on. Let's have some fun! And you don't have to just stop at ten!

Good choices!  I STILL think Sting was h-h-h-ot in "Fortress around your heart" video and in "The Bride" movie.

I also liked David Coverdale from Whitesnake.
