So I have been wondering, is it okay to have celebrity crushes? In a pure way, not lustful or sexual. I am a big fan of this group, BTS (you should check them out, their music is amazing and they run this anti violence campaign and spoke at the UN) and the members are me and my friends celebrity crushes. We pray for the members too, asking God to bless them and stuff, but we are unsure if being a fan/having celebrity crushes are acceptable.

I will break it to you, you are never gonna just meet your future husband or wife and never think anyone else is attractive ever again. It’s ok and normal. Just remember to keep things in balance
 
It’s fine as long as you don’t get obsessed with the celebrity to the point where you fantasize about them all the time, follow them around, and actually have some idea you are going to be together.

Like anything else, people always take it too far.
 
Just don’t try to marry your crush on the astral plane
 
Just remember to remind yourself that you don’t have a deeper connection with them, they don’t actually know who you are. It’s healthy to have that emotional chastity, a bit of a separation between you and them. Don’t get too attached or else it hurts when the attachment is broken
 
You don’t say how old you are. But yes, it’s normal to have crushes on celebrities. They’re “safe” because you’re not going to marry them or anything. At best, you may have the opportunity to meet your heartthrob at a meet and greet, get an autograph and a photo op.

Be realistic tho and don’t close yourself off from meeting someone you can have a real relationship with.

It’s natural to a point as long as you don’t live in a fantasy world and also don’t put people on pedestals and realise that all people are created equal.
Think they are cute,inspirational or whatever but don’t make them into an idol.
 
I have a massive crush on my favorite actor!

But he’s married and so am I, and I’m pretty certain things are going to stay that way for both of us.
 
im 16! and sadly i wont ever meet them bc they live in a whole other country 😦
 
When I was a teen, I had a massive crush on another actor who was in his 40s. I dreamed of meeting him (and of course he would love me!).

I didn’t meet him until I was in my 40s and went to a convention where he was one of the guest celebs. I was actually breathless and gasping for air when he entered the room! He was super nice, and autographed my Bible in two places. I’m so glad that I was able to meet him, because he died a few years ago, and whenever I see his autograph in that Bible, I say prayers for him.

So don’t give up! You might meet your crush someday, too. I am really hoping that some day, I’ll meet my current celebrity crush! My organ teacher met him, and I’m so jealous!
 
Ah i hope that you get to meet them! And whats the name of your first celebrity crush if you dont mind telling me? I would want to include him in prayers today. Also i doubt that i would be able to meet my celebrity crushes because they speak a whole different language:(((
 
Lol I didn’t think I’d see another BTS fan here. I quite like them too but holy moly are they timewasting. I can spend quite a lot of time watching their performances and the like. They’re very interesting and talented. As long as you don’t think you’re going to marry them or anything! Or even want to. You shouldn’t want to. They’re not Christians as far as I’m aware. We really don’t know what celebrities are like behind closed doors no matter how nice they seem on camera. Just try to appreciate their talent. K-pop really feeds of the fantasy of celebrity crushes, way more than American music. They don’t just sell music, but a fantasy. That’s why they recruit people primarily based on how they look. So just keep that in mind. Also, their lyrics and the general message should be good. E.g I think Ariana Grande is pretty talented and I like her voice. But some of her songs glorify sin. So I can acknowledge that she’s talented and has a nice voice, but I won’t make habit of listening to those songs.
 
From what i heard i think taehyungs at least Christian, from all the songs on his playlist and the signs he does during concerts for his grandparents (gesturing to the sky) and Yoongi went to a Catholic school. And i agree their a big waste of time but their songs are so good and prefromances

I would do some reading on emotional chastity just so you know the type of boundary you should have in this case. This is the same with tv shows and movies, it’s not good to be too attached to characters because we will always be disappointed by them (because it’s not real). These celebrities are real but to a certain extent they aren’t. Jason Evert has some good YouTube videos on Emotinal Chastity

That’s kind of how it did work for me. So it could.
