Our, IT'S CHIC TO BE GEEK poll is over, which off course doesn't mean being geek isn't chic anymore. Geeks remain cool forever! Because it's better being smart, goofy and charming than handsome and shallow. Do you agree? :) And who's the winner? Well it's no one else but that 70's guy Topher Grace with amazing 41% of your votes.
He left equally charming Christopher Gorham in the second place with 24% of votes. The list continues with Zachary Levi (10%) and Adam Brody and John Krasinski (both with7% of votes).
Now, I'm guessing it was kinda expectable that Topher would win this poll. THAT 70'S SHOW, with him as the main star, really was hugely popular all around the world and after the show ended Topher has continued with the successful movie career. Being always adorkable and charismatic, seducing the ladies with his green puppy eyes and winning over guys with his humour, Topher Grace had great romantic roles in IN THE GOOD COMPANY (with Scarlett Johannson and Denis Quaid) and VALENTINES DAY, but he was also an action hero in SPIDERMAN III and PREDATORS. We will be watching him in KEEP COMING BACK with Milla Jovovich and in Curtis Hanson's TOO BIG TO FAIL next year.
It's interesting that Topher is exactly three months younger than your HOLLYWOOD SPY :), that he started his career in musicals, Topher is just the short form of his real name Christopher, actress Chloe Sevigny was his babysitter when he was a kid, he gained 24 pounds of muscle for the role of Venom in SPIDERMAN.
Now since we've proclaimed our favourite geek, let us find THE BEST LIVING ACTRESS. Next two weeks you can vote as much as you like for these four ultra talented, heavenly gifted, breathtakingly expressive, mind-blowingly gorgeous, stunningly omnipotent, otherworldly almighty thespians: Judi Dench (AS TIME GOES BY, NOTES ON A SCANDAL, CHOCOLAT, IRIS, MRS BROWN), Cate Blanchett (ELIZABETH, LORD OF THE RINGS, NOTES ON A SCANDAL, BENJAMIN BUTTON, CHARLOTTE GRAY, THE GOOD GERMAN), Meryl Streep (JULIE AND JULIA, CRAMER VS CRAMER, DOUBT, OUT OF AFRICA, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, THE HOUSE OF THE SPIRITS) or Kate Winslet (TITANIC, THE READER, LITTLE CHILDREN, QUILLS, IRIS, HEAVENLY CREATURES, HAMLET). Those are the four ladies who deserve an Oscar for each and every of their roles. Who's your favourite among them?
Topher! He's so cute.
ReplyDeleteThat's some tough competition for the ladies. Hmm...
Ah, geeks are going global....
ReplyDeleteMy vote would have gone to John Krasinski.
Kate Winslet gets my vote for the actress poll.
Congratulations for finding the one picture in the entire universe that makes Cate Blanchett look even remotely attractive.
ReplyDelete@Mesmerix
ReplyDeletehe is :) and the competition is the toughest ever :)
@Andrew
Krasinski is great and has the most gorgeous wife - Emily Blunt, they were actually voted the best couple in one of HOLLYWOOD SPY's last year's polls :)
@MJ
Cate Blanchett is the most beautiful woman in the world. She is one of the rare actresses which have the refined and ethereal physical beauty combined with the refined, enlightened and profoundly charismatic inner charisma.
Yay for Topher! I loved his character Eric on That 70's Show. Always smart and funny.
ReplyDeleteyay indeed, Kelly :)
ReplyDeleteCool! Now I'll vote for the other.
ReplyDeleteCD
I voted for Topher! LOVE that 70's show... I watch the reruns all the time! In Good Company was a great movie. And I actually liked Valentine's Day too :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Dezz, Cate Blacnhett is pure beauty, one of the most beautiful actresses. This is such a though poll, I don't know for who to vote, they are all such great great actresses.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I almost didn't recognize Kate Winslet.

DEZMOND - Topher is ta winner!
ReplyDeleteAnd, Kate B for the win in the next poll. =D

ReplyDeleteYay for Topher :)
Topher had major appeal from the 70's show, though he wasn't well liked by the cast. He was
ReplyDeletequiet and kept to him self. I saw this on the a
"Behind the Scenes" type show! I think he is adorable! Wow, tough on the women's poll.
topher does have that geeky charm! good pic!
ReplyDeletethe new one will be a hard choice!
@Shells
ReplyDeletetha big winner :) I see Cate B. is already leading
@Lynda
it's my favourite word ^_^
@Ella
well, being quiet is a characteristic of geeks :) I'm guessing Topher is the total charming opposite of Ashton Kutcher :)
@Vics
glad you like the pics :)
He didn't get my vote but he was pretty funny in That 70s Show.
ReplyDeleteWow, tough choice on the poll this time Dez, it came down between Judi and Cate for me... but of course in the end I voted for the later :)
ah, I'm guessing you voted for Zachary :)
ReplyDeleteIt IS the toughest choice ever!
I think Topher Grace is so hot, quite like his recent movies, loved him as Venom in spider man too just wish he got more screen time as venom.
ReplyDeleteIndeed he is, Dempsy, and I wish they made a VENOM spin-off! But they didn't :((
ReplyDeleteNope, Zach is a close second... I voted for Aaron ;)
ReplyDeleteoh, silly, silly me, I totally forgot Aaron!!! :)
ReplyDeleteTopher's cute but that dog is cuter!
ReplyDeleteBest actress? Judi, Judi, Judi! Equally amazing? Meryl. Wish there could be a tie.
ah, yes, the dog is indescribably cute :)
