Burns Harbored Crush on Osmond Since Youth

Actor/director Ed Burns has been hiding an embarrassing celebrity crush from his model wife Christy Turlington - he's lusted after veteran entertainer Marie Osmond since he was a child.

The Saving Private Ryan star admits he was obsessed with Osmond as a boy and would frequently be ridiculed for the object of his affections.

He tells People magazine, "Marie Osmond (is my celebrity crush)! I used to watch The Osmond Family Show, and I would kiss the TV set when Marie was on. My own family mocked me! I liked her singing."
