Michael is a cutie, but my inappropriate crush is
MR. SHIA LEBEAUF ( I don't think I spelled that right) I'm 13 yrs older, he's so fine tho!

Tracy Thu, May 1, 2008 at 06:15 AM EST

Im 11 years older than michael, and normally i dont go for younger guys but hes just so adorable

I understand that this is all about Michael Cera, but my truly inappropriate crush is the actor who play Tim Riggins on Friday Night Lights. I think the actor is 19 while I am 32! I think we need a column devoted to HIM. He just might be the hottest thing on the small screen right now.

dudees i dont know what your talking about i am crushing on MR.CERA. he is pretty adorable and every movie and show is ten times cuter when he is in it. superbad, he was hilarious and cute. Juno, even cuter and a great actor. I DONT THINK you know what your talking about if you dont think that Michael cera is plain old adorable.

RE: Where's the stick puppet?
I think he might be deserving of something more than a stick puppet. I may spend the weekend crafting a papier-mâché bust.

ceci Fri, Jan 4, 2008 at 12:21 PM EST

So glad I'm not the only one!!! :) "You keep reminding yourself that it's still technically 'legal'"...and I am also more than 10 yrs older..sigh...

You wonder when it would be considered a "cougar" relationship.
You have a list of all the significantly-older men/young-enough-to-be-a daughter list of couples as proof that it "would be OK if it were the other way around."
You tell yourself you can hang around 15-20 years and be perfectly fine with being the second wife.

misty Fri, Jan 4, 2008 at 08:01 AM EST

Ok - I'm 25 - Daniel Radcliffe = yummy. Michael Cera = I would not even look twice at him if I was his age and he was the only guy around. He is so blank. Quite quirky, but not much else.

Quick question - what does the age gap have to be to determine if said crush in inappropriate or not? Also, I'm from the UK, so anyone over 16 is pretty much fair game.

Emily Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 09:29 PM EST

After Superbad came out all of my friends kept talking about how cute and adorably awkward he was and I kept yelling at them saying that I had dibs on him since I loved him first and thought he was cute and awkward first when he was in AD before they even knew him! I wish I was Juno! I never thought I would be jealous of a pregnant teen, but if he was the one who knocked me up, I'd be down with that! But, like other who have responded, I am 19, so its totally ok...right?

Jaime Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 07:54 PM EST

I have a crazy crush on Michael Cera which dates back to his Arrested Development days, but I'm 21 so I like to think it's okay.

Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 07:53 PM EST

You kind of wanted to date him even when he was wearing those HIDEOUS shirts in Arrested Development. Younger guys are generally banned from my celebrity crush list, but my crush isn't that inappropriate- I'm only 22!

Hey furry_tom! Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 07:53 PM EST

Where's the stick puppet? Your fans are waiting....!

Margaret Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 07:12 PM EST

I'm seconding Jean's comment. I'm more than 10 years older than Michael Cera (yes, MORE than 10), and I would never really go back to high school, but I sure would if Michael Cera would be my boyfriend.

Jen Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 06:54 PM EST

-You found yourself trying to look up into his short-shorts in Juno.

Nic Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 06:31 PM EST

I've got 10 years on Michael...don't care...here's my entry:
-You have seriously thought about what kind of technology would be required to shrink him in to miniature form so you can keep him in your pocket.
-You're thankful that you live in Canada...he's over 18.

Shirl Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 06:03 PM EST

Kissing cousins!

Lola Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 05:12 PM EST

Sorry, but that kid is not attractive to me.

Joan Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 05:05 PM EST

Thankfully I'm also 19 so it's not inappropriate that way. But...

1. You celebrated your four-year anniversary of said-crush in November.
2. You ate a "Happy Anniversary Joan and Michael" cake.

Gretchen Weiners Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:48 PM EST

1) You voted for him to be "Hot Slut of the Month" for December on DListed.com.

2) You plan on voting for him for "Hot Slut of 2007."

monica Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:47 PM EST

lol you guys are really funny, in that creepy stalker kind of way. I scored a 5 (out of 15 or so) for Cera. But if this was about Shia I would most certainly be certifiable.
*I day dream about being a PA on set and him falling madly in love with me. lol But I'm 22 so it's a little bit more kosher. ;P

Dave Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:44 PM EST

I don't even need to bother to determine a score because I definitely have an inappropriate crush on Michael Cera. I'm 25, he's 19, and I'm totally smitten. In fact, Zac Efron, Daniel Radcliffe, and he currently represent my ultimate inappropriate celebrity crush trifecta. Um, I think I need a boyfriend....

Laurie Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:28 PM EST

-You wondered if his racecar bed was big enough for two.

-You thought he must be good with his hands if he can play guitar.

Ruby Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:24 PM EST

OMG, I love that this up! I happened to watch Superbad and Juno within a few days of each other and fell in love with Michael Cera. Now, I am counting only 3 weeks since I saw Superbad, and have still developed a very strong obession in a very small amount of time. So I guess I would score very high on this quiz. I would also add;
*Have pestered every single fam member & friend who'll listen, including my boyfriend, about how adorable is and why.
*Tried to convince anyone to go see Juno again with me, for what I fear has nothing to do with the movie (though great) and everything to do with seeing him again.
*Did something I haven't done in years, and imdb'd him in strange, misguided hope that he was older.
*When I found he was 19, wondered if a 5 year difference in age really matters in life, despite a previous stance that it did.

n'Jeri Eaton Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:19 PM EST

14. You wanted to watch him hook up with Maebe even though you knew they were cousins.
15. You bought "Anyone Else But You," his duet with Ellen Page, from iTunes and listen on repeat and pretend that he's serenading you.

I don't think my crush on him is inapprorpiate. It's down right mandatory.

Sarah C Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:07 PM EST

13. You've thought about kissing him to teach them a lesson. Isn’t that what makes it funny? I’m laughing. Go fish. Uno.

Ames Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 04:00 PM EST

You've thought about working in his banana stand.

Lauren Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 03:15 PM EST

When Arrested Development premiered, you said to yourself "that kid is going to be so cute in a few years."

And you were right.

(Now I'm saying the same thing about Jake Zachar, aka Rusty on ABC Family's Greek, who is actually a friend of a friend.)

Back to MC: I cannot WAIT for Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist!

sophia86 Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 03:06 PM EST

10. You've watched every internet video you can find featuring him.
12. When you heard his band was playing in a little LA club, you seriously considered flying across the country to see them.

Annie B. Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 02:56 PM EST

YES, furry_tom, YES!

krikky Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 02:55 PM EST

9. Your heart dropped just a little when you read in the comments below that he has a girlfriend.

Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 02:36 PM EST

8. You'd make love to him, but only if he called it "pop-pop."

Cassie Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 02:09 PM EST

- You've wondered how you can get your hands on a copy of the portrait of George Michael that was on the nightstand next to Michael Bluth's bed.
- You want to learn how to play the guitar so you can jam together.

furry_tom Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:54 PM EST

RE: you compared yourself to Ann on AD
Her?

tiff Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:52 PM EST

3. you compared yourself to Ann on AD, and you knew George Michael could do better.

4. You convince yourself he's over 21.

5. Clark and Michael.com

6. You google him when you hear he has a girlfriend (and she's adorable).

"That sounds like some mild fun."

Jean Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:47 PM EST

Although it was the worst years of your life, you daydream of being in high school again with Michael Cera as your boyfriend.

Red Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:45 PM EST

LOVE LOVE LOVE Michael Cera!!!!! George Michael Bluth lives on!

Martha Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:42 PM EST

Eek, no. I could never have a crush on someone who would probably call me "ma'am" while bagging my groceries at Market Basket if he weren't famous. Guess I get a point for being over 21, though.

krikky Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:41 PM EST

OK, I totally missed the point on this. Clearly the question was supposed to be ABOUT Michael Cera... Ok... here goes:
- You force your boyfriend to say the following when you're in bed together: "Yeah, they said that would happen in health class".

As PS: disregard my now-rather-embarassing confession about Shia.

BF Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:39 PM EST

Sorry - should be watched Juno.

krikky Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:38 PM EST

3. You have a picture of Shia LaBeouf's mugshot from his Chicago Walgreens arrest as your computer's background picture.

Yes, this is true. And I am TOTALLY with you, Mandi, on Michael Cera. I can't wait to see Juno tonight.

BF Thu, Jan 3, 2008 at 01:37 PM EST

-When you washed Juno, you couldn't keep your eyes off those yellow shorts for fear of missing a possible pork sword sighting.
