 To be honest, i think you're thinking childishly.
there is pretty much no way you could have an actual relationship. This is like a bunch of old ladies loving brad pitt, or johnny depp. you could never have a celebrity as a g/f b/f (well there is a 1/1000000 chance).
having celebrity fantasies is a kind of waste of time. time to come back to the real world, and find yourself an actual guy (if you want), who actually knows your name.

 You remind yourself that fantasy is OK, but fantasies aren't real.
If this guy is a celebrity of any sort of standing, he'll have hundreds, perhaps thousands, of adoring fans. Each one of those fans will be thinking along the same lines as your fantasy. So, in practical terms, the competition would be impossibly stiff!
How'd you like to apply for a job where there was just one vacancy and 10,000 qualified applicants?
So, enjoy your fantasy, enjoy your crush. Appreciate whatever the guy has that you like. But keep yourself realistic because you have a slim-to-none chance of even meeting him; the chances of becoming his Significant Other are infinitesimal!
Just analyse what it is that you find so compelling about him, then start looking around at other boys and trying to find that trait or traits in them. That way you get the best of both worlds.
