This just might drop like a steel ball in the ocean...but.

Have any of you had posters, on the wall, that was of any celebrity, singer, or famous person? I'm talking more about during the teen years, when you literally didn't care what others thought of your room.

My walls, while growing up, were filled with Cher and John Travolta posters and magazine cut-outs...later I did have one Prince poster up, it was the one with him all in white, holding a single pink flower.

Even if you merely had a shrine to someone famous...let's share that too.

Let's see who actually admits to this.

Oh, and be nice...

The only poster I ever had on my wall was a Guns 'n Roses poster...

I quickly outgrew that and never had another poster on my wall. My room was pretty much decorated with beads and fish nets hanging around... those big feather plumes tacked up on the wall, etc...

Hmmm...no, I didn't, actually...I had a Picasso print of a line sketch he did, but that's it...

I think it's quite cute.

Today, I walk into the room of a teen, and they are doing the same!

These phases are innocent enough.

there i said it

The famous Farrah poster? I still know grown men who have that in their garage and one who has it in his den... lol

Actually, I don't think I've had any posters ever.

I'm starting to feel like I missed out on something.

I've made poster prints of some of my photography if that counts.

IrishGecko said:

Wow. I almost bought the Lincoln Dali, like 20 years ago...a lithograph, but I wasn't quite sure if it was legit, so I didn't.

Oh yeah, my walls were covered with The Osmonds

AzureStar said:

Funny how popular that poster was! You would think it was the first one ever of an erect nipple!

OMG I had Guns N Roses PLASTERED all over my room. My favorite was of Axl in a thong with a whiskey bottle between his legs

Then there was Tommy Lee and Motley Crue on my ceiling. Oh and I can't forget Sebastian Bach! I had such a crush on him!

Now I have one Prince poster in my closet and I have a couple Olivia Paintings hanging up. And a bondage painting my friend did...it goes with my bed.

You know, that's not a rumor. I dare you to go and check out any magazine picture of a male or female that looks attractive to you...you will find the word SEX all over the picture, literally. But you have to look at the grain, not easy to do for some.

Ha! See? What I tell ya? And you love them, right? I know I used to comb through all the teeny magazines to find pictures to add to my wall.

In highschool the walls of my room were like a scrap book. We had just moved from Germany to North Dakota and I had pictures of everywhere we'd been to in Europe.

I had Prince posters everywhere, that my dad would make me take down when his parents came to visit and I would post up programs to concerts in school and stuff like that.

I loved my room in highschool.

I think the poster I treasured the most was the original Saturday Night Fever movie poster, from the local theatre...I had merely mentioned I wanted it...and then...

I actually got it, and I didn't do it!

LaVisHh said:

thats what it was all about 4 me up until about a year ago

its great lookingback now & seeing how cheesy it was . .. .yet i'll still put a NKOTB cd on if im feelin the mood4it

Yes, and yes..

It started with the Beatles, every single inch of my walls were covered posters..

Then came Paul Revere and the Raiders...

By the way Lav I have met Cher, and she is a really, really nice person.

That's the thing I am trying to get at.

Wasn't your room your castle? I mean it was YOU. Mostly uninhibited, right?

Too Funny..I had a huge G'N'R poster in my room growing up too!! It was one of Slash by himself...I used to think he was so sexy!!!

sag10 said:

That's cool! You know, she is one celebrity I have yet to meet. I hope to lay my eyes on her in person, one day.

I admired her ever since the Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour...mostly because of her strength and of course for the Bob Mackie clothes.

I had all of her albums, used to be her on a daily basis. My mom and dad even bought me a cheesy record player with a microphone that I actually used to sing along with her, and many, many others.

It was in an art gallery...but this place actually was shut down due to "fake" reprints that were passed off as legit, sorry, I should have completed what I started.

His work is just lovely. Lucky for you.
