Which celebrity would reduce you to a mindless, giggling fangirl?

In my case: Joe Flanigan.

Okay. His winning a downhill skiing event and not telling anyone and not using it to fuel a PR machine has got me hooked.

Then the fact that he calls his role on Stargate Atlantis his "job" and "work."

Add to that the fact that he showed up to interview with just a daypack on his shoulder and no PA or official posse... *sighs.* I like this guy.

That questions about himself get a monosyllabic answer while if you ask him "big questions" like, oh, "tell us about the nature of science fiction" and "let's talk about global warning" he'll expound for a while -- and actually have something insightful to say.

Then on top of that, in the behind the scenes commentaries he's a naughty, flirtatious little boy.

*pats him*

*stares at a photo*

*sighs happily*

This is the real reason I won't go to conventions. ;)

I seem to be able to keep my cool when meeting actor-type celebrities. Perhaps because much of their charisma is based on attractiveness, and I spent the summer of 2000 hanging out with a friend whose scorching hotness puts that of any Hollywood people I've met to shame (giving me lots of practice at not openly drooling). But talented writers, directors, and athletes are a different ball game. A case of non-profane Tourette's has hit me every time I've been in the presence of Joss Whedon or Ray Bourque, and I suspect that Gordie Howe, Jane Espenson, Bryan Fuller, and Todd Holland could likewise reduce me to babbling idiocy if I met them.

Ben Browder would be a double-whammy, wouldn't he? And in light of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5SjJ5_uWa4) collapse might be a real possibility if our paths ever crossed.
