Famous women with Brains and Beauty

Lindsay Lohan
In this day and age where most women who are celebrities make the news for ridiculous and scandalous behavior, (Lindsay Lohan anyone?) more and more people are beginning to think that celebrities are just a bunch of eggheads who really do not do much other than make a fool of themselves. Ah - do not be fooled! Believe it or not, there are some very smart cookies in the entertainment industry.
They are beautiful, funny, witty, classy and are brainy too. They also some of the highest paid entertainers in the industry - they really do get showered with money for their appearances. (I wish I got 1/10000th of what they got - surely I my bank accounts will be happy and I will not have to worry about student loans and mortgages and what not.) This hub is a tribute to those who show the world that brains and beauty do exist in the same package. Why they are beautiful is obvious, and the credentials that back up their smarts are listed in this hub. Of course you do not have to go to Ivy League schools to be considered smart, but it is surely a fantastic indication! I hope that you enjoy this hub, and leave a comment below if you feel that there is another hottie that should make this list.photos
