Celebrities seem to have it all and then some. Looks, talent, big houses and big bank accounts. But for some smarty pants celebrities, they even have one more thing that is more impressive than all the fame. It’s a college degree! And as Judge Judy always says, beauty fades, but dumb is forever.

Not for these celebs. When the curtain closes on their acting careers, they will still have their diplomas to take them to the next chapter of their famous lives.

3. The Webs We Weave

It takes a whole bunch of talent and special effects to take on Spider-Man, but boy, oh boy does handsome James Franco take on the challenge and do it extremely well as Spidey’s backstabbing, two-timing villain, and best friend, Harry.  But there’s more to James than meets his beautiful movie star eyes. He’s extremely educated too.

He has a list of degrees as long as his intelligent arm including an undergrad from UCLA, a Masters in Fine Arts from Columbia and a soon to be Ph.D. from Yale.

Hold on to your diploma!  Handsome, smart and talented! That’s a trifecta!

2.  “Fascinating” Side Kick

Spock, co pilot to Captain James T. Kirk on the Starship Enterprise was smarter than the average space traveler.

He was in true life too. Leonard Nimoy, rest his intelligent soul, earned more than one degree. He had a Master’s in Education from Antioch College, an Honorary Doctorate from Antioch University and an Honorary Doctorate from Boston University. But best of all for his pointy ear loving fans, Spock is immortal and will live on forever in popular culture. “Fascinating!”

1  From Neuroscientist to Big Bang Beautiful Nerd

Mayim Bialik is a real-life scientist complete with her Ph.D. from U.C.L.A. and plays a scientist, Dr. Amy Farrah Fowle on the television hit, The Big Bang Theory.

Her love interest in the comedy is Sheldon Cooper, who is also an ultra-nerdy scientist on the show throwing big words and mathematical theories around. But he’s met his match with Mayim because unlike Sheldon’s real-life actor,  Jim Parsons,  who isn’t a real-life scientist, she actually knows what she is talking about. So put that in your big bang pipe and smoke it!
