Suggested by SMS
Here are 10 celebrities that played nerd or ugly parts either in a movie or on TV. Amazing how these actors and actresses can change their appearances. I will include before and after pictures in each item. Enjoy!!
10. America Ferrera
Betty Suarez has always had one goal in life: to make it into the publishing business. Despite being smart, hard-working, and productive, her dream has always been shadowed by the fact that she isn’t the best looking young woman. However, she is now determined to do whatever it takes to fulfill that ultimate dream.
9. Henry Grubstick
Henry is an accountant on the 3rd floor for Meade Publications who catches Betty’s eye. Although he was introduced in “The Lyin’, the Watch and the Wardrobe,” his first appearance was in the much delayed episode “Swag,” which aired January 4, 2007 as an extended flashback.
8. Sarah Jessica Parker
Square Pegs was a CBS comedy television series that aired during the 1982–1983 season. The series followed Patty Greene (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Lauren Hutchinson (Amy Linker), two awkward teenage girls desperate to fit in at Weemawee High School.
7. Amy Linker
Amy Linker was a child actress, born Oct. 19, 1966, who co-starred on the TV show, Square Pegs (on which she wore fake braces and a fatsuit). She also voiced the character of “Robin” on the animated Mister T series in 1983. After the show ended she went back to school.
6. Anthony Michael Hall
- Movie/Show: Weird Science
Two teenage nerds, Gary Wallace (Anthony Michael Hall) and Wyatt Donnelly (Ilan Mitchell-Smith), unpopular and unable to meet girls on their own, use Wyatt’s computer to design the perfect woman. They feed various data into the computer. Lacking enough computing power, they hack into a US Government mainframe and use its power to create a computer simulation of “the perfect woman” in order to place her in “real life sexual situations” and see how she reacts. A bizarre electrical storm follows, and they find themselves unable to shut the computer off.
5. Steve Urkell
- Movie/Show: Family Matters
For nearly a decade, multi-talented actor Jaleel White delighted audiences as America’s favorite nerd, Steve Urkel, on the hit sitcom “Family Matters.” He took what was originally a one-time guest appearance on the freshman series and created such a stir that he not only became a permanent cast member, but went on to perform other unforgettable characters such as Myrtle Urkel, Steve’s southern belle cousin, and Stefan Urquelle, Steve’s suave alter-ego.
4. Heather Matarazzo
- Movie/Show: Welcome to the Dollhouse
Matarazzo was born and raised in Oyster Bay, New York, the daughter of Camille, a homemaker, and Ray Matarazzo, a data processing manager for a bakery chain.

She attended Oyster Bay High School, as well as the BOCES Cultural Arts Center High School.

A lot of them are ugly in both pics, lol.
And a lot of them are pretty in both pics.
i want a girlfriend, am 22yrs. interested person should contact me thru or
Heather Matarazzo is ugly. She never palyed ugly that is how she looks.
There's some mean comments on here, but I bet these celebrities have more money than you do. Also, I would like to say I don't think Mandy Moore could ever be ugly.
But i loved angelina in the Hackers too…no matter what! she rocks!
i love you mandymoore come tommow 3oclockpm on my lap
okay jordanblair i will come you party tommow 3oclckpm
Well, actually, some of them I think look good in both pics, like Angelina Jolie. I think she looks fucking hot with short hair. And Josh Peck didn't play ugly, he just happened to be chubbier when he was younger.
That shtoopid list makes no sense whatsoever.
In three out of these ten cases someone who's decent looking in real life did play someone who's not as good looking (Ferrera, Linker, Urkell).
In one case the role looks nerdier, but certainly not uglier than the actor (Grubstick).
In another four cases, judging from the pics, the role looks just as good as the actor (Parker, Hall, Jolie(!), Moore(!) – are you kidding?).
In two cases, the actor did not play a role who's ugly. Peck obviously was chubby in real life when he was younger. Matarazzi obviously had facial surgery.
In fact, none of the roles or "befores" are actually ugly.
Couldn't agree more. Just because they throw on some nerdy clothes, braces, and have poor eyesight, doesn't hide the fact that they are still bleedin' hot. In fact, the constant reminder from the show that they are "ugly" is annoying.
"In fact, the constant reminder from the show that they are "ugly" is annoying."
My sentiments exactly! I used to watch Degrassi, and there was a constant reminder from the show that this character Toby was a nerd, but he obviously wasn't bad-looking in the least. Well, in Season 1 he was noticeably chubby, and in Season 4 he got his hair spiked, which didn't suit him at all. Now he looks like crap, but in Seasons 2 and 3 he was very attractive in an unconventional way.
mandy moore was beautiful in a walk to remember!!
she can never be ugly
Mandy Moore is always gorgeous no matter what!!
i love mandymoore
who even make this retarded lists?
Agelina Jolie in Hackers…was ugly? I can’t even wrap my mind around that. Seriously. I’m completely dumb struck. Her face, circa 2010, looks as though it was chiseled out of plastic, and covered in a bukakke of botox, and yet somehow THAT’S what people consider attractive. I genuinely hate human beings sometimes.
I think that urkel dude should have been in the No. 1 spot. But…he's still FUGLY~!
Sarah Jessica Barker has never been and will never be attractive
its sarah jessica PARKER but ok
Its Barker because she looks like a dog
Yeah Angelina Jolie in hackers was her at her best, I fell in love with the way she looked, WOW.
Now she seems like another person, not as hot anymore.
There are no ugly women, only poor ones.
Another really good example is Thora Birch of American Beauty. It's said that when she tried out for the part, they turned her down because she was too beautiful, so she came back later with no makeup and bad clothes and such, and they hired her on the spot.
I still think the biggest 'good looking celebrity that played ugly' is Charlize Theron in Monster.
UH huh… who made this? how is Sarah Jessida Parker good looking?
steve urkel should of made number 1 because his real self out of the urkel cosutme caused such a huge stirr that they actually made a whole thing out of it. Any who Angelina Jolie and Mandy moore can never be ugly. Josh Peck was still good looking when he was chubby. America should of been number 2 and that Heather chick has always been ugly. I thought she was retarted for the longest time. Same with Sarah jessica Parker, but she just always looked like a horse.
Well, my opinion is that they are just an average looking girls, so they can act both roles, on good looking and of bad looking, but you can not make perfect model like Adriana Lima to look bad in any occasion… …
Sarah Jessica Parker is ugly. PERIOD.
half of the are ugly anyway, and character angelina played was also hot in the movie, she was not supposed to be an ugly girl in it
she looks like a pretty man all the time idk why ppl think she is even female
SJP looks like a horse, Peck looks like Francesc.
DUCK THE HATERS.
heather is ugly kick her out of actress she is uglier than my pig and she is so ugly it burns my eyes UGLY!!! EWWWWW!!!
It is the best movie I have ever seen…..wao….
