8 Teenage Heartthrobs Today's Youth Wouldn't Crush On Even If You Paid Them

In This Article:

When talking to my sister, who is 11, she had asked me who our teen crushes were when it came to celebrities. When I told her that it was Chad Michael Murray, she had no idea who I was talking about and was quite honestly so confused. I had to show her pictures and videos of him and all the others in order for her to understand.

Unfortunately, I know this isn't only the case for her. Today's youth have no idea what they were missing. Here are 8 hearthrobs teenagers today wouldn't crush on even if you paid them.

1. Chad Michael Murray

Oh my x1000 🙈

Let's be honest ladies, we all fell in love with him when he was Nomad instant messaging Sam in "A Cinderella Story." When he told his father off to run after her, boy did that make us all swoon. Don't forget when he was Lucas Scott in "One Tree Hill" shooting hoops and winning every American teenage girl's heart.

2. Zac Efron

Now this one might be surprising, but I'm telling you today's youth doesn't even know him as Zac Efron from "High School Musical." Like really? We will never forget him as Troy Bolton, the basketball star and musical talent.

3. Leonardo Dicaprio

Young Leo was the heartthrob of all heartthrobs. When he saved Rose, as controversial as that was because there was definitely room for two people, all of us hoped to find someone one day that would risk their lives to save us.

4. Taylor Lautner

The last BIG movie Taylor was in was the "Twilight" Series. He has done some small roles in TV shows and movies, but nothing will compare to when he ripped off his shirt in "Twilight" and made us all basically drool over his six-pack.

5. Shia LaBeouf

Now this one is controversial, especial since his spiral over the past few years. But, the Shia that starred in "Holes" and "Transformers" was one to drool over.

6. Josh Hutcherson

When Josh stared in "The Hunger Games," and we were all still in high school and middle school, he was adorably cute. I remember telling my mom how cute I thought he was. Now, that he hasn't been in any big movies in a while, and he is now older, he is not as cute and definitely not making middle schoolers drool.

7. Nick Carter

Fashion’s always been our thing 😂

A post shared by Backstreet Boys (@backstreetboys) on

This one is a no-brainer! Any girl that grew up in the 90s definitely cried when they heard that the Backstreet Boys were getting back together. There's no way that any middle school even knows who Backstreet Boys are let alone who Nick Carter is.

8. Jonas Brothers

Now you may be thinking, "but they're so big right now?" But, when asking my sister if she knew who they were, she had no idea, which is quite upsetting. Let's be honest ladies, Joe as Shane in "Camp Rock" will be one of my favorite roles he has ever done.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
