These are celebrities who I just love. Totally. And I just had to share.
Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs. The girl can sing and act. I saw her in Wicked as Elphaba and let me tell you – she’s amazing. And he HAS to have the greatest smile on the planet. When he smiles – I smile. Plus he sings, and dances. Geez. I LOVE THEM. And they just had a baby. That kid is destined to be perfectly beautiful.

Bono – he writes beautiful lyrics, his voice is fantastic, he loves Jesus, and he is making the world a better place. And I kind of have had a bit of a crush since the late 80s/early 90s (I may or may not have a poster of him rolled up in a closet somewhere).
