List all the people who play dumb....

[Dumac]

What about the total opposite, like Arcadio?

Dolph Lundgren. I don't guess he plays a bozo, but his characters are usually pretty retarded, kinda like his acting. Has a master's in chemical engineering and speaks 5 languages.

Poor Doplh, if he had only made it to this country before Arnold, he could be the governator right now. I wonder if he can pronounce California.

IMHO she played her cards extremely smart.

Just out of curiosity, how?

Good luck with that.

One example I can think about is Paris Hilton, the gal made a career out of being hated by people eft & right, but we cannot deny the fact she got what she wanted i.e fame.

Paris Hilton is rich...not smart. She is famous because she was born to someone famous.

She had two cards - she's attractive, and she comes from a wealthy, famous family. Don't give her too much credit, all she had to do was show up.

If she's so shrewd and calculating, explain The Hillz.

George dubya Bush.

For the category of people who act smart but is actually real dumb.

Give him some credit as an actor at least, he has been pretending to be a cowboy forever.

Dude... I almost mistook her for an inflatable doll several year ago working with her. She redefined the word airhead for me. Just because she may have some decent business partners does not mean she got smart. Wiser and better spoken, maybe. Smart no.

Someone I always admired who is incredibly smart and talented yet plays not so smart characters is Mira Sorvino. All around incredible woman.

I heard the guitarist Slash on an interview the other day. He is very well spoken, and intelligent, and even came out with a book. While he doesn't exactly play dumb, the whole rockstar attitude he puts on is a mask. He also mentioned he's never done drugs besides weed.

 

[Train]

A lot of people assume Sylvester Stallone is dumb, he's actually a very accomplished writer and producer.

 

[ed21x]

Christina Applegate and of course Marilyn Manson.

 

[JS80]

It's funny so many Paris haters here. She's not as "dumb" as you all think. There are plenty of good looking trust fund babies out there yet they are not celebs. Why is that?

Paris has done an excellent job of marketing herself as a brand. I'm not saying she would do well in Stanford but she is not completely the dumb blonde the public perceives her as.

 

[dennilfloss]

And she has perfect breasts.:heart:

 

[Squisher]

This really isn't on topic, but it seems to be a lot of air headed rolls for actresses lately. I don't know if air headed really describes what I'm talking about, but they act like they've just gotten done smoking some weed.

Three come to mind the first one is obvious:

Mary-Louise Parker from Weeds

Evanna Lynch from Harry Potter

Zooey Deschanel from Failure to Launch

 

[Chiropteran]

Forest Gump
