There are many, ''many'' good-looking and famous people out there who are also [[geek]]s and [[nerd]]s. Most of them keep their geekish tendencies hidden. [[Proud to Be a Geek|Some don't care]].

The literal version of [[Hollywood Nerd]]. You can take the most vicious and dangerous badass action hero and when they go on a talk show to promote their new movie, a line slips that they hadn't been getting much sleep because of them playing the latest video game.

See also [[Ascended Fanboy]] and [[Promoted Fanboy]]. Also see [[Comics Rule Everything Around Me]].

It probably isn't necessary to list every single genre fantasy or sci-fi writer here, though. Yes, we can ''assume'' that, say, [[Terry Pratchett]] or George R. R. Martin are gigantic fantasy geeks; it isn't necessary to say it... in fact, listing the fantasy or sci-fi writers who ''aren't'' geeks would be shorter. Probably because such a creature likely doesn't exist (except [[Sword of Truth|perhaps]] [[Terry Goodkind]]).
