Incredibly Smart Celebs Who Played Really Dumb Characters
20. Ellie Kemper
Ellie Kemper is most recognized for playing Erin Hannon on The Office. The somewhat ditzy character is an exaggerated version Ellie’s real life persona. However, Ellie is far more intelligent and put-together than Erin Hannon. Ellie was very dedicated to her studies and graduated from Princeton with a degree in English in 2002. She then went on to the University of Oxford to continue her English studies; however, she left school after a year to focus on her acting.
