OK, so she isn't a really MAJOR celeb, but she has appeared in a number of music videos and seems to be making her own music now.

Celestina Aladekoba (official website here)

Words cannot do justice to the hots I have for her. I really want to send her a love note and ask her out, but the contact form on her website doesn't let you attach pictures and I want her to have a clear idea of what I look like before we date. Furthermore, I don't know how to word the love note without sounding really awkward. What am I to do?

What do you hope to obtain by sending her a love note? That she comes knocking on your door? If that doesn't work with everyday run-of-the-mill girls, I seriously doubt it would work with a celebrity, especially one who receives a whole bunch of them already. Your best bet is to meet her in a night club and spin her tops around.

Eh. I've had a crush on Gary Oldman, but I've never acted on my desires and neither should you.

Celebrities aren't real. Well, they are real for their friends and family, but not for us. You're free to have a harmless crush, but be able to distinguish fantasy from reality. Then stick to the real girls and forget about the fantasy ones.

I don't think your going to date anytime soon. But she may feel flattered by the note anyway. I suggest you try closer to home for your nubian princess.

Agreed but perhaps he is attracted to certain physical aspects so another alternative could be to find a girl with similar physical features that resemble her. I have seen a couple of girls who look like this so I wouldn't think they would be too difficult to find.

Yeah, I've given up on her. She is probably out of my league anyway.

Excellent point!

Well, whatever you do, please do not try shooting the President.

anyway...

I'd say just write her a little note. Just don't be a stalker, but just tell her she's cool and leave it at that. Best not to say your unending feelings of her, as well, you've never met her, so you obviously don't really love celebs you've never met. No pics of yourself either. Just talk to her like she's a real person. Oh, and don't bother her too much, or she'll think you're a stalker, and then you'll go to jail. But yes, no undying love, etc.

Post editted for reasons quoted below, and to make it shorter.

By all means, yes, if he's attracted to women who look like this celebrity, he should approach them. I do think physical attraction is important (well, it depends on a person), but the point is, he should approach real girls and not celebrities.

Don't feel bad, BrandonSP. I honestly don't think anybody with a celebrity crush could get their crush to go out with them. Not unless they're rich and famous. That's why I stopped even having celebrity crushes.

I wonder if a crush on a celebrity would be easier to cope with than a crush on somebody you know from real life.

With a celebrity you are unlikely to meet them, and have failed social interactions with them. Also since the chance of a relationship happening is far less than with somebody you know your expectations may be more realistic.

Although my crushes are people I know in real life, there has been points when I stop meeting them regularly which is, emotionally, easier to deal with. Some time after I stop meeting them regularly the focus of my attraction changes to somebody else.

I suppose if the crush is fairly mild then it may be ok to let it simmer in your mind, if it gets more serious then it is more of a problem.

Celebrities are real people, however, that disappoints people expecting to see a celebrity, you know what I mean? Ever see celebs without their makeup?


The crush may well be on the person in their "celebrity" form, not them as a real person. this would apply even more when people get a crush on an actor/actress when they are playing a charter.

Maybe but there's nothing wrong with indulging in your crush as long as you don't become a creepy stalker or start losing your grip on reality. I know because I had a monster crush obsession with Miranda Cosgrove till me & Megz coupled up; crushing on Miranda made me happy. My advice for whatever it's worth is to avoid sending her the love note because you could come off as a creepy stalker. Join her fansites or forum communities if she has any or you could try starting one for her if she doesn't Talking about her may make you feel good & maybe you could figure out a way to meet her or have an opportunity to chat with her

I wonder how such a meme would look...

Not quite crazy enough to be made into a meme, IMO. I'd say this is pretty normal.

I think crushes can be a weakness, it can be unhealthy to fixate on anyone that isn't reciprocating or aware of your feelings for them over a prolonged amount of time since it can be emotionally frustrating. I agree though, the Original poster shouldn't overlook girls that don't instantly meet his perfect expectations of a partner.
