Emmy Rossum lusts after Prince Harry
Emmy Rossum has a secret crush on Prince Harry and dreams of dating the bad-boy British royal.
The Phantom of the Opera star, who last month (Jan13) released her second album - a compilation of classic standards titled Sentimental Journey - has been keen on the party-loving prince since she was a child.
However, Rossum doesn't see the third-in-line to the British throne
as potential marriage material - she just wants a steamy fling with
him.
Rossum tells British magazine Live, "I've always had a bit of a
thing for Prince Harry. Growing up I used to pretend I was married
to him in an alternate universe. Like any other seven year old I
had a fairy tale notion of growing up and marrying a prince.
"I still think he's pretty cute. He's also very boisterous, which
is a good thing in a man. I'm not saying I want to marry him, but
he's more than welcome to invite me out on a date. I know in my
heart that this is one of those impossible never-to-be realised
crushes. But I've always been a hopeless romantic."
Prince Harry is not the only British star to have made an
impression on 26-year-old Rossum - she also has a soft spot for
fiery chef Gordon Ramsay but admits he is too old to date.
She adds, "I find him fascinating to watch on television. He's
wonderfully entertaining... I think he's great but I don't feel the
way about him that I feel about Prince Harry, who is a little more
age-appropriate."
