- solemnraven, on 10/12/2007, -12/+126It's so easy to be well educated when you come from a wealthy family.
and fyi going to a fancy school and/or getting a fancy degree does nothing to measure how smart you are.
Remember G.W. Bush has a MASTERS from YALE.
not saying all/some of these women are not smart or anything,
I just won't make the judgment unless i see some good interviews or meet them in person. - dominasian, on 10/12/2007, -11/+125dumbass
dugg for natalie portman - Twoodge, on 10/12/2007, -18/+103IQs*. Plurals shouldn't be denoted by apostrophes. Never ever ever!
- WiZZLa, on 10/12/2007, -6/+75A more accurate title would have been "Hotties that received high grades in school" as no IQs are listed.
Actual "hotties" with high IQs would be Sharon Stone with an IQ of 154, Geena Davis with an IQ of 140, Jodie Foster with an IQ of 132, and Nicole Kidman also with an IQ of 132; all four of whom are in Mensa. - wild, on 10/12/2007, -6/+49"And he's not exactly the retard you guys seem to think he is"
I dont think he is retarded. Bull headed, ego-centric, lying, manipulative, vindictive, decietful, out of touch, and thinks he is accountable to no one, sure, but I would never argue he was a retard. - ersatzphi, on 10/12/2007, -4/+42If Cindy Crawford finished her degree in chemical engineering, she would be about 50 lbs heavier and have a serious cholesterol problem from living off of ramen noodles. But that's still impressive!
- wild, on 10/12/2007, -2/+37"AM I ALONE HERE GUYS"
Your looking at a list of hot women and their education. On digg.
You probably are alone. - hiPpymIck, on 10/12/2007, -0/+26right
...and shes a very smart playmate...FTA
"Skipped high school and attended college instead. Graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor's degree from West Chester University (Pennsylvania) at age 18. Obtained a JD law degree in 1997 as well as a Ph.D. in psychology from Villanova Law School and Drexel University. She most recently completed post-doctorate work in sex therapy at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School." - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+25This said nothing about their IQs, only that they are "smart". By "smart", they were all somehow able to go to a nice school. There are people with average IQs at MIT. The person with the highest IQ in America is a bouncer who lives in a trailer.
Marked as inaccurate. - lazyrussian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16OMG @ #5. Dr. Victoria Zdrok
A genius and a pornstar :) - mastercheif, on 10/12/2007, -2/+17Having a Masters from Harvard does not mean you know how to run a country.

Let's ban the user who hacked this category into the site! - majeo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15"She most recently completed post-doctorate work in *sex therapy* at the Robert *Wood* *Johnson* Medical School."
Nothing about this sentence sounds made up (yes, I am aware it is an actual institution). - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -38/+52"Remember G.W. Bush has a MASTERS from YALE."
No Bush has BACHELORS from YALE. He has a MASTERS from HARVARD.
And he's not exactly the retard you guys seem to think he is. - UNEXPLODEDduck, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16dugg for the natalie portman rap!
- saritate, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Maybe this is just because I'm female, but does anyone find it sort of depressing that several of these chicks ended up dropping out of school to pursue careers in modeling/porn? It makes me sad to see that even the most intelligent women can find more money in objectifying themselves than in careers that would actually use their intelligence.
- bytor4232, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13They fergot Geena Davis. She's actually a member of Mensa.
Plus, Lisa Kudrow is a very smart person. She worked as a medical researcher before she became an actress. I've watched interviews with her in it, and was always amazed at how brilliant she was. Whenever Jay Leno or someone like that interviewed her she always wanted to talk about marine biology. - Splizxer, on 10/12/2007, -7/+20Whatever, I'd park my meat into a lot of girls from my university.
- swordedge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Wizzla,
Add to your list Asia Carrera. Porn star, widow, and as much as they don't want to admit it, a member of Mensa. - striderelite, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12IQs (Intelligence Quotient) are subject to change. They do not reflect "natural abilities" at all. They are more likely subject to change by repetitive stereotype threats:

Basically what that means is that when a person is repeatedly told that he or she is a "smart" person or a "dumb" person, he or she will perform accordingly. The subconscious mind is conditioned by repetition.
By the way.....the list forgot to include Shakira. I hear she has an IQ of 140+. http://www.celebopedia.com/shakira/. Plus she's ultra hot, in my opinion. - Vimo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11intelligence is sexy!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11I'm sorry, but I'm just too full of myself at the moment to enjoy anything but the thought of myself and how great I am.
I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night! - mwmwmw, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Whoever earlier mentioned Sharon Stone as having an extremely high IQ is incorrect. If I remember, Sharon Stone claimed she had an extremely high IQ but later admitted that she had been lying the whole time. She's pathetic.
- pavvy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12geena davis? lisa kudrow? wtf ... you're forgetting that they have to be attractive
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11The 60 minute interview with Aishwarya Rai is awesome! digg up +
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9I had a huge crush on Elisabeth Shue when i first saw Adventures in Babysitting, I was all of 8 at the time, but some crushes never really go away
- lowerlogic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9I had a crush on a girl once, then I got a Nintendo 64.
- cyranthus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10they never mentioned pornstar Asia Carrera is quite a distinguishd member of MENSA.
- asauterChicago, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Hot chicks are cool. I'm going to go play with my Wii...
- gaiden2k5, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11wow that gives me a whole new perspective on Natalie Portman, she's in my top 5 actress now
- jstanden, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9"So basically this list is actresses or other celebrities who also went to college? ... How is that proof of a high IQ?"
Exactly! Though "Famous hotties who went to college at some point" probably wouldn't have 200+ diggs -- well, actually... ;) - soccerkidjp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8There should be an "extra credit" section for Victoria Zdrok. Maybe a video or pics?
- userundefine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Famke Janssen also speaks somewhat broken French. I saw her on television in France once promoting a new film... once in a while she deferred to a translator.
- drlha, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Way too high gum to tooth ratio, that's why.
- superal1394, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6idk, maybe its the Mythbusters nerd in me, but what about Kari Byron?
- gregmo, on 10/12/2007, -4/+9this is a tech news site ONLY. If I so much as see a comedic video or a Daily Show or Colbert Report clip I will be irate!
- Tacgnol, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6No, not really.
Having money =/= Being smart or hard-working - Sivvy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Kate was great in Underworld.. actually she's great in just about anything :p, .. she makes me *tingle* :D
- skyhighrockets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5@ pureeviljester
You mean Idiot Savants?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autistic_savant - Superthug, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Natalie Portman never stops getting sexier.
- therearenorules, on 10/12/2007, -5/+9natalie portman and kate beckinsale... yum
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+11"I dont think (Bush) is retarded. Bull headed, ego-centric, lying, manipulative, vindictive, decietful, out of touch, and thinks he is accountable to no one, sure, but I would never argue he was a retard."
That's a fair opinion, though one I don't 100% agree with when you put it into context. I don't think he's that bad for a politician, but like all politicians who make it as far as he did you can fairly call him any one of those things...
But, how many people on here say that Bush is an "idiot", a "retard", or even a "chimp"? How many political commentators say this guy is an idiot? I once saw a discussion between Al Franken and Tucker Carlson on CNBC, with Russert at moderator, sometime in the early days of the Bush Presidency. Franken said something he'd never say today that I'll paraphrase, "I met (Bush) a few years ago and, while I don't agree with his politics, I can safely say he is the smartest man I have ever met in my life". The man can't speak because of a learning disability that is exasperated by the pressure that mounts on his psyche with every gaffe. It is hard for him to make prepared or coached speeches. I always thought the left was so caring and would bend over to accomodate a person with disabilities. I guess I was wrong. - verynegative, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6And she's got the most horrible and annoying voice ever. I hate her.
- tonton2012, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Buried for inaccuracy. GPA != IQ. Those are two entirely different things.
- surasshu, on 10/12/2007, -6/+10That MUST prove that on average, beautiful girls are stupid! Am I right! AM I ALONE HERE GUYS
Yeah, that really is some great deductive logic there. Maybe you should stop commenting on digg and get a job with the FBI, I mean you could be spending your time solving murder cases... - newevilmind, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4what about MIT Prof. Cynthia Breazeal???
- Metasquares, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4It's interesting that the two most intellectually impressive people on that list did not attend ivies.
- youngexec, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Why oh why the smartest of them all is not mentioned here. Utada Hikaru[http://kotaku.com/gaming/top/utada-queen-of-tetris-hikaru-is-defeated-193905.php] More Info [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utada_Hikaru]
- Chasuk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3 @twoodge,
> IQs*. Plurals shouldn't be denoted by apostrophes. Never ever ever!
Wrong. It is no longer common practice, but it used to be the norm. Some editors and professors still prefer them. Further, apostrophes always denote a plural when using lowercase letters, as in "mind your p's and q's." - Herolint, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I wonder what their individual levels of fluency in all these languages are. I lived in Tokyo and studied Japanese for about three years and have been married to a Japanese person for 15 years, yet I still do not claim to be fluent. When Japanese is as accessible to me as English is, I'll change my opinion. Until then, I can speak Japanese and communicate with Japanese people quite well, but I don't consider myself fluent.
I wonder what the criteria is for these people. -
