Cute or Sexy Nerds

Cafe Society

I overheard this conversation, 'cause again I was eavesdropping, but that’s what people get for talking loud on a subway.

Anyway these two girls were talking about sexy or cute nerds. These were famous but the problem I, ahem, overheard was that the guys they listed weren’t really nerds, but famous attractive people who play nerdy guys. Like Paul Rudd for instance. Or Michael Phelps but athletic guys aren’t nerds or dorks right?

So my question is what nerdy or geeky (whatever term you use) famous people do you find attractive.

I found myself thinking this and it was hard, because again most of the people that look nerdy are actually nice looking but dressed down to play nerdy guys or girls. I would use Topher Grace or Toby McGuire as great examples of a nice looking man who is dressed down to look nerdy. Actually they kind of look like the same person

:slight_smile:

How about Stephen Colbert and John Stewart? Both kinda nerdy. Colbert especially: he and Vin Diesel are both admitted Dungeons & Dragons players.

Nope. Still looks like a dork.

That guy Kyle Ensley who auditioned for last season’s AI and got as far as the chair. The perfect Hollywood nerd, and cute as a bag full of buttons.

(I was already meh on that season, and when he was cut, I said “Screw it.” Didn’t even stick around for that Australian hottie, and David Cook was never on my radar.)

5

Get over it, the nerds won.

6

Tina Fey, of course. She’s a nerd goddess.

7

And that person is Jake Gyllenhaal.

8

I dunno, depends on the photo.

It’s true! With enough professional lighting, makeup, styling, and enhancement, they really do a good job of making him look not dorky. :wink:

10

Well, David Tennant? The current Doctor Who. I think he’s sexy anyway :slight_smile:

11

Anthony Edwards - my biggest nerd crush!

12

Nerd couple- Willow Rosenberg & Wesley Wyndham-Price.

(Alyson Hannigan & Alexis Denisof, of course.)

13

Ow, Willow’s back to liking guys again, is she? :wink:

14

Matthew Gray Guber of Criminal Minds is sexy nerd personified

15

I’ll agree with this. He’s adorable.

Barack Obama’s a Trekkie. Does that count?

16

Most definitely. That’s the only reason I got into the show at all.

17

Confession time -

Stephanie Courtney who plays the dorkiest pitchwoman on TV - Flo - the Progressive Insurance girl.

I think Flo is hot.
What the hell is wrong with me?

18

Not a thing. Flo/Stephanie has a cult following here.

19

I can’t believe I’m the first person to mention Kari from Mythbusters. DAYUMN!

Masi Oka (Hiro from Heroes) and Phil Plait (the Bad Astronomer).
