Quote from: AZGiantFan on May 18, 2024, 02:34:40 PMIf you want smart, Mayim Bialik of The Big Bang Theory and Jeopardyshould do it for you. She actually DOES have a doctorate in microbiology in real life.
Mayim is smart, no doubt, but one celebrity with a scary high IQ is Goldie Hawn...who'da thunk it
Goldie was famous for her role playing a ditzy blonde...a role she hated, but it put food on the table. Her IQ is 148 and qualifies for the Mensa Society (must have IQ in top 2% of population).
Even smarter than Goldie, is another celebrity who played a ditzy blonde: Lisa Kudrow with an IQ of 154
Highest IQ measured of a person everyone knows: British comedian Rowan Atkinson (plays ditz "Mr. Bean" who has an IQ 178). That's higher than Einstein and Stephen Hawkings. Another genius is Dolph Lundren (played the boxer against Balboa in Rocky IV) who worked as a bouncer while earning degrees from Royal Institute of Technology (BS chemistry); University of Sydney (MS chemical Engineering); Washington State University (MS) and was working on his PhD at MIT when he quit school and chose acting for a career. His IQ is 165. Another guy who plays an idiot, but has a high IQ is Ken Jeong, who was a medical doctor before switching to comedy and acting. He has his degrees from Duke and the UNC School of Medicine, and practiced medicine for several years as a physician in Oakland, CA at a huge hospital (Kaiser Permanente)
Smart people hide among us...and some of them are getting rich by playing a ditz or playing a brute...or being a model or musician. Must be good money in getting celebrity status, lol
