And this is how I started my life long crush on Jared Leto

Claire Danes & Jared Leto in My So-Called Life, S01 E013 ‘Thing People Had’, 1994. Jared Leto, at 21, taught 14-year-old Claire Danes how to make out during My So-Called Life. “There were these stage directions in that scene where it says ‘Angela kisses Jordan’s face,’ and I was like, ‘What? What is that about? Why would she kiss his face?’” Danes recounted on The Howard Stern Show in 2018. “I had that question on set, and he had to try to teach me. It’s ridiculous!” After the short-lived show, which wrapped in 1995, Danes and Leto kept in touch, although she doesn’t consider them to still be close. She does, however, still hold “great affection” for him. To her, he was always “fraternal” and “protective.” “He seemed ancient,” she said. “He was shockingly good-looking, it was alarming.” “He seemed ancient,” she said. “He was shockingly good-looking, it was alarming.” In 2016, Leto opened up about his time during My So-Called Life, relishing in the fact that he was presented as a “lust object.” “Oh, yeah! It was about time,” he told Rolling Stone, as ET reported. “I’m happy to have taken that, uh, baton or whatever.” Leto says that as Jordan Catalano, he barely had his bearings. “I feel like it was such a short period of my life,” he said. “Let’s face it, I barely spoke! I have a lot of gratitude for starting there, but they made such a big deal of the character in the show… I think for some people, especially girls at that time, it mirrored something in their lives. It did make an impact for people, but it’s always been so imbalanced with what the experience was for me in my own life.” #mysocalledlife #90s https://www.instagram.com/p/CM7abd9HohK/?igshid=12u1qfko228y9
