Celebrities love self-identifying as nerds. They just love it! Put a microphone in front of a celebrity and I’d guess there’s a one in five chance that celebrity is going to work in the fact that they are a nerd. There are two explanations for this:
- They want to seem relatable to people who aren’t rich and famous and beautiful.
- They are actual nerds.
Whether or not they are actual nerds is up for debate, but these are just some of the many celebrities who love shouting it from the rooftops.
