Retro Crush of the Week: Belinda Carlisle

This week's Crush is actually the first ever Retro Crush, a blast from my past. The honor goes to singer Belinda Carlisle. I classify her as a "Retro Crush" because I haven't seen what she looks like lately, although if she still looks like she did in her 2001 Playboy spread, she's still got the goods. But man, I had a huge thing for her when I was younger.


Mad about her. Lost in her eyes.

Oh, what the heck. Here's another:


Ooh, baby. Do you know what that's worth?

Posing Rule #26: When you use wine, scotch, or a cigar as a prop, you automatically look even hotter.

Well, I don't know when those pics that I posted were taken. I'm guessing mid to late 90s. But as of 2001 she was lookin' F.I.N.E., as Steven Tyler - another ageless beauty - would say.

This is very odd, but I've always had a thing for her eyebrows. I think they totally make her face.

Strange, I know. But I am a strange bird.

Thanks jackass. Now I can't concentrate at work. Too many re-visited fantasies concerning Belinda...

I like the prop advice. I'll keep it in mind!

How funny.

When I was little, my friend Natalie and I would make our Barbie and the Rockers, Belinda. Nothing like "Ooh heaven is a place on earth" sung to a Ken in leather pants.

KtG - I'm reminded of that episode of "Seinfeld" where George is set up on a blind date. When describing his potential paramour, Jerry says "she's got great eyebrows - women kill for these eyebrows." George's reply: "who cares about eyebrows?" Exactly. Well, as long as they are Dukakis size.

George - That's what I'm here for.

Helen - It works! I should've specified that the rule only applies to women, but I'm sure y'all inferred that.

Kristen - They made a Ken with leather pants? Guess there wasn't a Tom Jones-esque bulge.
