Who had a crush on Alex Owens? (Jennifer Beals) FLASHDANCE

I wanted to marry Alex! I was so in love with her... love mushy

Jennifer played that character. I was hoping she (Jenn) was more like Alex, than Jennifer. Everything she's done after Flashdance was dissapointing for me, because I kept looking for Alex.

She was shy, vunerable, confident, bold, independent,...she was the whole package!!

AND FINE!! razz

I went to see this with my (then) girlfriend. She wanted to see it. After the movie, I swear I wanted to kick her to the curb!!! I was so mad that she wasn't Alex. We broke up shortly after! lol

I would watch the movie and not hear a word or a song, I just wanted to look at Alex (Jennifer).

I still love you Alex, I mean Jennifer. wink

my dad took me to see that movie at the cinema, and he LOVED it way more than was appropriate, he also borrowed that one on VHS when VHS was invented!!

I liked her too, I was 11 when I saw it mushy

I still love her. The L Word rocked and Chicago Code rocks because of her. (Jennifer, that is). I did love Alex though. I made one of the outfits she danced in at the club to wear in a fashion show. boxed

I had a bit of a crush on both Alex and Jennifer back in the day.

As an aside, this old news, but supposedly Jennifer Beals was considered for Vanity's replacement in Purple Rain before Apollonia was ultimately rewarded the role. Beals turned down the part due to academic obligations.
