50 dumbest people in Hollywood

<< < (8/8)

TOoP/Bruce:
A big part of the criteria for selecting the 50 "dumbest" people in Hollywood was stupid life choices and bad career moves.  No matter how shy or inarticulate both Andy Garcia and Robert Deniro may be, neither of them seems to have committed unrecoverable blunders in choosing their work, or living their lives.

Based on that criteria, it is easy to see how "Lilo" rocketed to the top of the dum-dum list, with a succession of bad life choices, and dreadful careers moves.

Have you ever seen him interviewed on TV? He can barely get a sentence out. It's painful to watch. He may just be shy, though.

I've read critical comments about DeNiro. That he can't say a thing without having it scripted for him.  Lots of people are not very articulate.  This also applies to movie stars.  This is a failure of learning to communicate effectively for whatever reason.  Many stars never finished high school or went to college where one learns to communicate and are not dumb per se, but they just cannot effectively get out coherently what they are trying to say, so they come across as blithering as Miss Teen USA or they just don't say anything and so appear dumb.

However, having said that I have also read many stars say how "smart" Keanu Reeves is...then I start to think, OK consider the source.  8)   In some cases, it's like Britney Spears saying how 'smart' Jessica Simpson is.   ::)

He certainly is a cutie and I don't think he's dumb at all.  I mean he's done quite well for himself, if one considers smart career decisions and life choices as criteria he's a frikkin genius, lol!   He manages to have an amazingly lucrative and rewarding acting career and all while pretty much stayiing out of the public eye.  I mean what do we really know about him?  He surfs, rides a motorcycle and plays in a band nobody's ever listened to and every now and then gets to be on the covers of major magazines.  The guy's a genius I tells ya!  I want his life, lol!

I can't decide between the first four. So, I'll say, first four.
