I'm strangely attracted to, (FILL IN THE BLANK)
You can't explain attraction, sometimes it just HITS. You're walking along, minding your business and BAM! the next thing you know you're checking out the odd shaped hairy UPS guy and you're totally swooning. Alright, maybe not that extreme but you know what I mean. Some people call it chemistry, fate, "sparks", crushing....and sometimes I just call it strange. As you get older it's easier to deal with your offbeat love interests, so tell me, who are YOU strangely attracted to?? Or maybe, WHAT are you strangely attracted to???
I'm strangely attracted to ANDERSON COOPER
Is it the salt and pepper hair? Is it the pensive face he makes between sentences? The passion? The fact that I’m not even sure if he’s straight….I don’t know! Whenever I’ve mentioned my Cooper crush, I receive faces of shock and horror. Come on, he’s a babe…look at those baby blues.
APPARENTLY, I'M NOT ALONE!!!
Nate from Gossip Girl
Why am I attracted to a clean cut Upper East Side high school student? God knows. He’s not even my type! But all I know is that he’s ridiculously good looking. And the whole subplot of him having an affair with an older woman seems to justify my attraction. I think.
Broccoli
Lately, I’ve really been trying to get back into shape (if you can even say that I ever was "in shape) step up the exercise routine and replace the chips and beer with a healthy well-balanced diet. Lately I’ve found that I can’t get enough of fibrous vegetales, namely aforementioned broccoli. So great is my affinity for Broccoli, that I seek it out in everything from salads and soups to the producer of the sexxxcellent Bond films, who is the namesake of this magical vegetable.
Barbara Broccoli
What a name!
I think I started having a crush on her when everyone used to tell me that I looked like her when she was in Interview with a Vampire… Plus, she’s hot.
Red Sox manager Terry Francona
Yep. Even the nose.

DEVENDRA BANHART
I know this picture is EXTREMELY odd. But! My love for Devendra Banhart is undeniable, and he could possibly be the most beautiful hearted person i’ve ever wanted to meet. One day we will, and then we’lll get married and it will be a dream come true!
Natalie Portman seconds your strange attraction....
and so do I.
I'm strangely attracted to JOHNNY KNOXVILLE
Johnny Knoxville makes a (handsome) living wearing aviator sunglasses and injuring himself. This should be a complete turn off, but I cannot get enough of him & his antics. Yum.
I'm strangely attracted to DONNY OSMOND
I’ve never taken so much crap for anything in my life, but I just can’t help it. Ever since I was a little girl I have loved Donny Osmond. Always have and always will. No shame. I swear.

I'm strangely attracted to, JOHN MAYER
Yes, that’s right, John freakin’ Mayer. I feel bad saying “strangely attracted” as I don’t see it as strange, really. The man is HOT. My husband and I have the supposed “laminated list” and his has 2 Russian tennis players and 2 leading ladies. Mine has one man, in bold, all caps: JOHN CLAYTON MAYER (I added the middle name to show you I mean business people!).
I have seen this man 6 times, thus far, in concert, I am a paying member of his Local 83 fan club, own all of his CD’s and I have his picture all over my desk at work (ok, I can’t really claim that as it was a birthday joke from my co-workers – I didn’t remove them though if that tells you anything!).
I dream of him one day telling me that my body, is in a fact, a wonderland and he’s purchased a ticket to ride the rides. (Oh, shame on me!)
President-Elect Barack Obama
How is it that no one has added him to this list yet? I know I am not alone here. I found myself questioning my attraction to him after his 2004 U.S. Senate election. But the last four years and certainly the last 22 months of his campaign have confirmed it: Obama is no strange attraction- just a cold hard stud (and after tonight, an especially powerful and inspiration one to boot.) Go Obama!
I'm strangely attracted to Zachary Quinto as Spock
It’s quite logical, really.
Any corporate-looking man with a full head of gray hair
And glasses. I seriously have no idea where this comes from. It’s like a Daddy complex of some kind, except my dad doesn’t look like this AT ALL.
I'm strangely attracted to JASON MRAZ
This one isn’t AS odd. Talent makes a lot of people attractive. Not to mention his lyrics make it very clear that he thinks of women as magnificent creatures. He’s part hippie, part foodie, part lover, part….elf maybe? He’s very elvin like. Pointy nose, ear, impishness.
I’d like to point out that I’m even more attracted when he’s holding a large butcher knife, in his underwear.
The Cure understands. I’m sure they’ve had many people “strangely attracted” to them.
I'm strangely attracted to MEN CARRYING YOGA MATS
I almost hit a man on a bike with my car the other day who was happily toting along a yoga mat….and I almost did it on purpose. So we could meet. Plus, they have to have clean toes if they’re exposing them, and clean properly groomed toes are attractive.
I'm strangely attracted to BARBARA PIERCE BUSH
This one is a given because she’s unquestionably hot (and single). However, she carries 50 percent of the genetics of her dad, President George W. Bush. God, this is not fair. Sure, you could ride off into the sunset with her… but would you really want W as your in-law? Or have kids that are inclined to drunken power trips? It’s like a depressing version of the sci-fi/horror movie SPECIES.
I'm strangely attracted to...Ari Fleischer?
Don’t ask. No really, don’t ask. I cannot explain this one. He’s a bald Republican Yankees fan. What’s wrong with me?!?
Julia Allison
I think the sun is setting on this one – but until then, I continue to follow her completely narcissistic (yet oddly addicting) “lifecasting” blog daily.

Totally hot – no matter how messed up he is I have always had a crush on this too skinny long haired man.
I HAVE A NEW ONE....
Last night while watching CNN, I acknowledged my big crush on Donny Deutsch from The Big Idea. Maybe the idea of never being in debt turns me on?
I'm strangely attracted to CRISS ANGEL
Ok, this one might belong in the “Confessions” guide, actually. He is so douchey and greasy and wears way more makeup then me, but I just…can’t…look…away…
I'm strangely attracted to Michael Cera
Before any of you start giving me nonsense about robbing the cradle, Michael is 20, and last time I checked that was legal. I loved his hot legs in Juno. He can knock me up any day.
Neck Tattoos
Yes, they’re tacky and unclassy, but hot. Kinda makes me wanna make out with it, kinda makes me wanna strangle em’. Either works.
Thick Calves
I have a thing for people with thick calf muscles. However, this is the image that came up when I Google “thick calves.”
