Starstruck

I rarely have a Starstruck. Especially if it’s only because of his/her appearance. I mostly idolize them who has talent. Good acting, good singer, good tennis/football player. When they’re really good at what they do, my heart fall for them.

I think it all started when I was in elementary school. When all my girl friends like the member of a boyband because they’re good looking. Somehow, being a little miss know-it-all back then, I want to be an anti-mainstream person. So when most of us chose Nick Carter, I collected AJ McLean’s pins up. Well, I really do love his voice until now. Remember when there was a gimmick telling us Westlife Vs 5ive? I choose 5ive. Simply because they’re more original then Westlife who just covering some old songs.

When girls my age has a crush over Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise or Ben Affleck, my desktop screensaver playing pictures of Tom Hanks, Nicolas Cage, Denzel Washington, John Cusack, or Will Smith in a loop. When every woman (or man) who’s watching La Casa De Papel falls in love with the Professor, I’m in love with Berlin, right from the very beginning. Oh, btw, I always love Tom Hanks. The only actor whose all of the movie I watched. Even over and over again. I like his movie when his younger, tho. When he played this fictional character, not like most of his movies nowadays when he portrayed a real figure. I always have a thing with Matthew Rhys and Eddie Redmayne, just because I really really love the way they act.

It doesn’t mean that I never have a crush over a celebrity because they’re good looking. Jude Law and Josh Hartnett always make me daydreaming. I really think if I’m a teenager I will be hysteria every time I see Timothée Chalamet in screen. Alessandro Del Piero was the one who made me get into football until now, because I used to like watching him every weekend.

Anyway, I like them not only because their talent or handsome face. I mostly idolize people because they inspire me. Through their way of choosing a character they portrayed, through their dribbling or smashing technic, or basically, through the way they do their passion. I think I really want to see myself in them. Part of myself that quite envy that they can do what they love.
