Brand Spankin' Bought (BSB): Zoe Saldana - My Kinda Woman
So I went to the movies this holiday season and I finally got my chance to see Avatar. After the flick--which I really enjoyed, by the way--I decided to look up some of the actors and actresses in the film. Why? Because I'm a geek and I've always done stuff like that--for the record, I'm a computer geek, car geek, useless information geek, and I used to read the dictionary (page by page), just to name the few of my geeky qualities.
And boy did the celebrity crush meter ping off the charts with miss Zoe Saldana. Ms. Saldana, born Zoe Yadira Zaldaña Nazario, in New Jersey, has also been trained as a dancer (ballet) as well as an actress. The other movie she most recently starred in was the revisionist Star Trek as Uhura.
However, not only did she have an interesting background and experiences (see: Zoe Saldana on IMDB.com), but she's an admitted Sci-Fi fan. Sci-Fi fan? Yes! She has also apparently said, "I am actually! I'm very proud to say I am a geek. But I'm kind of a cool geek." Geeky-cool? Hmmm... sounds good and familiar to me.
And on top of all that, she is credited with this quote:
"I tend to be very picky, so I look for the perfect man! So if Spock and Kirk can mix, they'd become my perfect man. That's the kind of guy I'd go for. I don't only go for muscles, I don't only go for brains. You just need to have a little bit of a bad boy and a geek and then you've got the perfect guy."
Shazam! I think I'm in love!! Or at least as I said at the top, I have a very strong celebrity crush. This is not only the type of personality that usually interests me, this is also the attitude that really gets my curiosity piqued! A hottie-geek who loves geeks too?! I would be all over it, or at least I would get over my initial shyness...
Now, if there were a way to get Ms Saldana my contact information... LOL!
How about you all? Who's your recent famous person crush? And especially you geeks out there, who are your favorite celeb-geek crushes and why?
