The beautifully brainy!

Call it what you will, geek chic or maybe sexy smart, but there\'s something about a man with intelligence - be it through cleverness, sensitivity or humour - that really turns us on. Take a look at our 10 favourite sexy celebrity smarties.

 

George Clooney

You can\'t deny his smouldering good looks, but his smarts are what makes George one of the sexiest actors around. On-screen we couldn\'t help but swoon over him as the brains of the operation in the Ocean\'s films, and we were wowed by his writing and directing skills of the Oscar-nominated historical drama Good Night, And Good Luck. If that\'s not enough, George is also passionately dedicated to both political and environmental issues.

Edward Norton

With his shy smile and boyish good-looks, the former squeeze of Salma Hayek definitely works the geek chic ticket in our book, and no wonder – Edward Norton is a grad of history at Yale and also contributed to a Japanese language textbook.

Sacha Baron Cohen

Mr. Baron Cohen\'s absurd ways have managed to fool many a world leader, and though we wouldn\'t go as far as wanting to see him in Borat\'s neon green thong, we wouldn\'t mind trading places with Isla Fischer for a day and having a little \'sexy time\' of our own with the funnyman himself. Although we\'re not too sure about Ali G or Bruno.

Louis Theroux

Louis\'s naivety and thick rimmed glasses have made him another geek chic pin-up we love. No matter how ridiculous or absurd the subjects of his documentaries are, Louis never mocks or criticises. We\'d like to think if we were his girlfriend he\'d never mock our obsession for ridiculously high shoes either.

Jeremy Paxman

A secret guilty pleasure for many women, Jeremy Paxman\'s authoritarian style and ruthless passion on both Newsnight and University Challenge makes him utterly sexy in our book.

Hugh Grant

As Liz Hurley and Jemima Khan can attest, Hugh\'s quick wit and public schoolboy charm (finely honed when studying English at Oxford) have made him the king of British rom-coms.

David Duchovny

With brooding good looks and the will-they-won\'t-they relationship with Scully, David\'s character of Mulder in The X-Files almost made us want to have aliens land in our back garden. However the smart act isn\'t such a stretch as David fluently speaks French, Hebrew and Latin and is a grad from both Yale and Princeton universities, where he wrote a paper entitled The Schizophrenic Critique Of Pure Reason in Beckett\'s Early Novels. Oooh, yes, David - we like it when you talk smart to us.

Zac Goldsmith

Yes, he may be incredibly rich and good looking but in this day and age those type of men are a dime a dozen. Zac Goldsmith\'s ultimate trump card is his passion for the environment. Along with editing green magazine The Ecologist, Zac is a keen campaigner for the environment and prospective Conservative party candidate. It may not be easy being green, but it sure is sexy.

Tom Anderson

You may be wondering, "who the…?" but with over 180 million friends, Myspace.com founder Tom Anderson is one of the most popular guys in the world (see, he\'s probably one of your friends). Not only that, Tom has helped make the internet a friendlier place for women to reach out to friends, date, chat and have fun.

Will Smith

If Will Smith were an Austin Powers sort of fellow we\'d hear him say, "success is my middle name." He\'s a happy family man with a blinding sense of humour and has also conquered the worlds of music, film and television, doing everything from sitcoms to hard-hitting dramas. See that, ladies, some men really do have it all.
