famous virgins
As someone who stayed a virgin until she was junior in college, I have a soft spot in my heart for any celeb who roils against the urge to get it on. For me, waiting to go all the way wasn’t about religion or fear of STDs–I just wanted it to be special..and frequent! And alas, that didn’t happen until I was 21. But no two virgins–not even famous virgins–are alike, girls.
Take a look at these 10 stars who are famous for their celibacy and tell me which one you identify with the most!
1. Jonas Brothers
A few years ago, Nick, Kevin and Joe couldn’t talk enough about their commitment to their purity rings. Kev got hitched to his long time GF (presumably without going all the way first) but girl-crazy Joe and Nick, who’s new girl Delta Goodrem is 25, have been suspiciously quite about their infamous virginity lately. Do you think they’ve given in to temptation?
2. Jessica Simpson
Back before she sold super sexy shoes and clothes, Jessica Simpson was the ultimate good girl, vowing to stay pure until she said “I Do” to long term boyfriend, Nick Lachey only to divorce him a few years later. If virginity is a gift, let’s hope she kept the receipt.
3. Lisa Kudrow
Yep, the Friends star refused to go all the way until she married her husband—when she was 32! Could you hold out that long?
4. Tim Tebow
SWOON! The straightedge, Jesus-freak football star is just as famous for his commitment to virginity as he is for kicking butt on the field. When you look at this sizzling hunk of boy, do you think his prudishness is a waste…or totally wonderful?
5. Tim Gunn
Ok fine he’s not technically still in possession of his V-card, but the fashion guru recently confessed that he hasn’t had sex in 29 years—and couldn’t be happier! Don’t you think we should give him a born-again badge? Or is it just kind of sad that he’s been so alone for so long?
6. Jordin Sparks
The newly slim American Idol star reportedly travels with her grandma to make sure that boys don’t try to get into her pants. Nobody gets past Nana!
7. Taylor Lautner
In a YouTube interview, the Twilight star revealed that he practices abstinence. Could that be the reason that his Hollywood relationships don’t last? Who should we set him up with??
8. Adriana Lima
When people find out I was a 21-year-old V, everyone says “We’re you ugly or something?” Um no I was not, thanks. And neither was Victoria’s Secret supermodel Adriana Lima, who dated Derek Jeter and Lenny Kravitz but didn’t do the deed until she married NBA star Marko Jaric…at age 27.
9. Matthew Morrison
Oh yes, Mr. Schu was pure as the driven snow until he was 21. The Glee star says that he managed to wait to lose it until he moved to Manhattan to pursue stardom…and apparently, more than a few lucky ladies.
10. Venus & Serena Williams
Unlike Jordin, these sexless sisters don’t need to tote a purity body guard. I pity the fool who tries to put the moves on these strong-willed women!
What do you think about celeb virginity? So cool or kind of preachy? Tell me in comments!

He Said What?!
I am 18 and still a virgin. I’ve never rellay started thinking about sex until now, but I’m not in a hurry to lose it. My three best friends scared me out of having sex; they both lost their virginity when we were in the 8th grade. Two of them just had babies, and the other one is six months pregnant. The two of them slept with so many guys they don’t know who their baby’s father is, and one of their boyfriends broke up with her because she wouldn’t get an abortion. All I’ve seen around me is broken hearts and tears, so for a long time I felt that nothing good could come out of sex and wondered what the big deal was. Now that I’m older, I know that sex isn’t the terrible thing that I thought it was, but I’m still not eager to lose my virginity anytime soon.
haha I get your point but I guess it doesn’t really matetr to me. I say people should do whatever they want however, I do plan to save myself. I’m 16, though, so don’t respect me or whatever if you don’t want to just saying. Planning to
I’m 18 and still a virgin,it’s hard but worth it!!I’m a muslim with no hijab!or something!!
Im 15 and im a christian i strongly believe in keepong my virginity until im married because i believe that my body is a temple of the Lord. This is my opinion and i believe that all young girls should live by this policy….abstinence is the best protection!!!!! God bless
way to go girl im only 13 but ihave the same values as you and im a strong Christian as well its refreshing to see stars not give a piece of thier heart to everyone that they meet
TAYLOR LAUTNER?!?! there is hope after all…i would have NEVER KNOWN! lol his poster is for sure staying on my wall now.
I am going to stay a virgin until I am happily married
I prefer a guy liking me for me not because he wants to get in my pants
I AGREE!!!
I’m 15 and I’m still a virgin. I alosmt had sex 2 times before with my ex-boyfriend but I wasn’t ready so I just let him touch me a bit. I’m proud of having made that choice, and I will wait until marriage, even though I believe that having ex before it is ok as long as you’re 100% sure and won’t regret it.now I’m single so I don’t really have someone to have sex with lol.. but I’m proud of being a virgin.. I’m kinda scared of it, because I don’t wanna get pregnant or have any STD and I’m happy to know that I won’t decieve my family because I’ve been taught to wait for the right guy and he hasn’t appeared yet lol..
i’m sixteen and still a virgin, but my best friend since sixth grade who turned 16 two weeks ago lost hers over summer. it doesnt make me look at her any different. i mean at first it was a little wierd sleeping over her house in her bed, but over the last year i’ve matured a bit as well, just not as much in that way. i’ve always been afraid of sex, almost in a mean girls “dont have sex, youll get pregnant and die” sort of way. but really, sex isn’t something to be afraid of, it’s a wonderful thing, and as long as you’re being responsible and mature, and you trust your partner completely, (and monogamy doesnt exactly hurt either) i think it’s okay to be sexually active
It is a rare thing to a find someone that is a virgin these days. I’m 18, still a virgin. Not necessarily waiting for marriage. I’ve had many opportunities to lose it, but the thought of getting an STD or ending up pregnant kept me away. It still does (lol). I just feel like people are not going to go around showing you the doctors papers confirming they’re clean so I might as well not risk it. I don’t think I’d mind losing it for a long while though, there are more important things in life.
I’ll be 21 soon. I lost my virginity at 14 and I’ve never regretted it–wouldn’t change it even if I could. However, I really respect when people decide to wait. I was with a guy who waited, and it didn’t effect the relationship at all. The guy ended up being a flaming paranoid d*ckbag, but whatever; now I know what to avoid. One thing I liked about him was that he wanted to date me because he had strong feelings for me, not for my body. As someone who’s been taken advantage of a lot, I really appreciate it. I’d date a virgin any day…but I might buy some new toys too (:
i feel the same way i lost mine at 14 to a guy that turned out to be a summers eve product and i dont regret it at all
You have to start making checios at some point. If you grow up knowing that you will be a virgin bride/groom start planning when you are young.BTW, I did this! We were both virgins when we got married and were glad we waited. My daughter/son-in-law were also virgins. It can be done.
I’m a 20 year old virgin I am religious but i’m not saving myself for marriage per say just for true love. I am a proud virgin though, I have many opportunities but graciously have turned them down. I do regret sometimes telling ppl that cuz it seems like they might watch and wait for me to mess up. I’m glad there are celebs who put their virginity out there.I recently told a guy I was a virgin he told me he didn’t believe in virgins, Like i was a mythical creature! I just wish celebs would wait until they lost it to really share so we know they were actually serious. PS Ive never heard about Venus and Serena being virgins. Serena was with common after all, I wouldn’t pass that up! lol
I laughed so hard at the ‘mythical creature’ comment…. It’s awesome that you’re so true to yourself, even if some people categorize you with unicorns XD

I believe that it a wonderful thing to keep your virginity until you are with someone that you love, trust and want to be with for a long time. Marriage is not necessary thought! The article makes it seem as thought sex is something you should be ashamed of. Who can stay a virgin the longest is not a contest! Just make sure you think before you act and use protection.
Pingback: Sex On The Wire: Don’t Let Rejection Screw You Over
Also some of the comments with the pictures make it seem like virginity is a bad thing. “Is that why his relationships didnt last?” Seriously? I thought this was about being a proud or atleast content with virginity. your dissing it.
I beg ur pardon but what the heck is wrong with young teens hiavng values like that at a young age? You yourself might not have been able to take the pressure but maybe they can! And where do you think those who started out with their beliefs? They were once that age too. As a matter of fact you probably were that same way once before. So don’t go around streotyping young people who actually have good values. They might be setting good examples for the younger generation in a few years. If you dont have respect for the young ones, then don’t have respect for the “mature” ones.
Usually I love everything on this website, but not this. I was looking for 10 celeb virgins. Virgins! You didn’t show many. Being abstinent like Taylor is not being a virgin. He may be, but most likely is not. Showing celebs who were virgins until marriage? Nope not virgins. Ones who waited a while to lose their v-cards? Yet again, not a virgin.
I’m upset you put people who are clearly not virgins on here. As a 20 year old virgin I get the question “Why not?” all the time. I’m in the same position as the writer. Its just not time for me yet. It looked like this article was going to show virgins for us to connect with. Yes you can connect with the no-longer virgins, but that’s not what it looked like it was supposed to be.
As a virgin the only one I can identify with is the author, who is also not a virgin.
Dude, stop bitching. The article is talking about past and present people who practiced or are practicing abstinence. And what the hell do you mean if Taylor is practicing abstinence that isn’t exactly being a virgin? What does that even mean? You’re delusional, get a life idiot.
Don’t be mean. She’s just stating an opinion.
I though this might be a good place to share my story. I’m 19 and will be 20 in October. Last month I had sex for the first time. I coeisdnred any sexual touching a loss of virginity and so I stopped considering mysef a virgin a month before I had sex. Because my boyfriend touched me sexually for the first time.Anyway, I was one of those abstinance chicks. I even wore a silver ring as a symbol of this. I wa all about waiting for marriage, and I’d still encourage people to wait for marriage.But I was fully and completly sure that I was ready. I’m completly in love with my boyfriend. He and I had been dating for 6 months beforeI even let him get his hand up my shirt,7 months before I let him touch me sexually and le myelf tuch him sexually, and 8 months before we had sex. We knew each other really well,knew each others dating histories,religious beliefs, ect. We discused everything in detail, th pros and the cons. We are both adults and feel that we could handle it emotionally, physically, and possibly financially if the need be. We went about it in a safe manner and used protection. We value each other and both of us are independent and secure in ourselves. We were completly ready and neither of us regret our decission.But had we done it earlier, whether with each other or with other people, I think we both would have regreted our decision. Neither of us was fully ready for it until recently.If anyone is thinking about having sex for the first time, they should really think about it. It’s not something to take lightly. It can change your life. And never let anyone make you think that you have to. You never have to! You can say no at any time. You can both be nude and standing in front of each other and say no. If a guy won’t take no for an answer, he isa jerk and not worth your time. And if you say no and he forces you, it’s rape. And if you are raped, it is not your fault and you should report it to the authorities. It will help prevent others from getting raped.I know this ended up turning into a rant. I’m sorry about that. But I know a girl who was raped and ast winter I was almost raped. But the girl I know blames herself. She never reported the guy and he still walks free. He abuses his girlfriends physically and emotionally, probably sexually too.Anyway, you virginity is special. You can only give it away once. Make sure you are fully ready before giving it away.
I think it’s great that their are celebrities out their who are open to admitting they kept their virginity! I think it’s important that both teens who are having sex and teen who are not having sex have people to look up to.
