Not all celebrities are as troubled or vacuous as the current crop of A-listers sometimes seems to be. Some of them have more than just charisma, and are genuine intellectuals, or are prominent in fields other than what makes them famous.
I was reading this article about geniuses in Hollywood:

Of course, it wasn't a comprehensive list...
Two celebs not on that list that spring to mind for me:
Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, guitarist for the Doobie Brothers & Steely Dan --> Defense Consultant & chairs a Congressional Advisory Board on missile defense.
Brian May, guitarist for Queen --> PhD in Astrophysics.
Any other (not neccessarily genius) celeb surprises out there?
