Aishwarya Rai
The Bollywood beauty and star of dozens of hit films such as Action Replayy, won the 1994 Miss World Pageant. She's been declared the most beautiful woman in the world by countless publications (and Oprah!) but this star doesn't rely on just her good looks. She attended the prestigious Ruparel College in India where she was an A student. She's also fluent in several languages including Hindi, Marathi, English and Tamil and her native language, Tulu.
Hedy Lamarr
The 1930s film star was often cast as a seductress because of her stunningly good looks. But she was also a brilliant mathematician. Hedy's idea for a secret communications system led to a joint patent, with composer George Antheil, for an early version of spread spectrum communication technology -- a concept that served as the basis for modern technology such as Bluetooth, wireless telephones and Wi-Fi internet. Watch her in the classic Algiers where she meets a jewel thief in the mysterious Casbah.
2PM's Taecyeon
Taecyeon isn't just satisfied topping the K-Pop charts with his group 2PM. The idol recently was accepted to Korea University's Graduate School, which is considered one of the 'Big 3' prestigious schools in Korea. Check out our exclusive interview with the guys of 2PM:
