My IQ decreases by 1 unit every time I watch these sorts of videos.
And if you watch these stuffs more than 100 times ..your 100 units will be going and you will be an animal minded human with 0 IQ
Mine by 2 units
It’s kinda funny because MENSA in spanish means “Stupid” 😁
i was about to say that
Word blood
Eh stupido.
Mensa/Menso
funny enough IQ tests aren't meant to test how smart you are, its meant for grade preschoolers to see is they go on to the nest grade or something like that.
Lil Pump has highest IQ.
Psy has the second highest IQ
BiggieSmoke why not, that crazy bitch madonna on this list
BiggieSmoke . It's bullshit
The only people smarter than lil pump are lil pump fans #esketIQ
BiggieSmoke by far
What about Rowan Atkinson? (Actor who plays Mr. Bean.) His IQ is reported to be 178.
FurryDan I believe he’s already in
KanekoXLiamB oh is he? I didn’t know that. Thanks
Yeah I believe I watched a Mojo video where they listed top 10 celebrities already in Mensa and Atkinson was on it
KanekoXLiamB You’re probably right. I just reminded myself that I once saw some other list online stating some celebrities which should belong in mensa and they listed Rowan there. Perhaps they didn’t know better themselves.
@@FurryDanOriginal I see and perhaps
Shakira literally has been blessed with EVERYTHING 🙌🏻 ps: where’s Kate Beckinsale!?
Yeah
Except with my micropines 😅
Except for her husband 🫣

I was so shocked to learn Shakira speaks 6 or 7 languages

Nah she only speaks English and Spanish, but she can say a few words in French not actually speaking them
@@zuchotheghost No I've seen her in hoding down conversations/speaking in Portuguese, french and Catalan well. And a littler bit Italian.
Also, I remember seeing her in my country Morocco back in 2011 she was speaking French with the crowd the whole time

Wow, no Rowan Atkinson? The dude’s an absolute genius
I agree.
Believe it or not Lady Gaga has a really high IQ...
Kasim Özdemir that’s a pretty fuckin high IQ
@@hectorsalamanca9989 suuuuuure you do
@@hectorsalamanca9989 ok, look. I just thought that it was rude that you said that 140 IQ wasn't that high, especially when you then started to brag about your high IQ.
I took the Mensa Admission Test almost 20 years ago because I was curious about how I'd do on it. I did well enough to get in, but never joined. Like many people, I think it's debatable what different standardized tests really measure. I believe more and more people are beginning to realize this. Despite that, I can't help but be kind of impressed by the crazy high IQ scores these stars have.
Matt Damon graduated from Harvard. How many Harvard graduates that actually are at the top have a low IQ?
At the behest of a teacher who took a special interest in me, I took it as well. She paid for the exam. My family didn’t have the money for me to join. Looking back on it, it was likely to satisfy her own curiosity.
I applied and joined in the late 80s, these days I'm not convinced that IQ testing measures anything, apart from your aptitude for the kind of questions on the test.
There’s a lot of salt in these comments. We get it, it stings that you aren’t as smart as you think.
Nate I don’t see these comments
These people can actually understand Rick & Morty. Wow
@Meme Connoisseur like your mama
Do you seriously believe that for understanding Rick and Morty you need to be smart? Avarage IQ is more than ebough for that.
Lepton Particle It’s sarcasm, you can tell because of the wow at the end.

joey joestar it’s really not all that high..
It's incredibly high. It means his IQ is so high it hit the top of the IQ scale level and reset to zero. Immeasurable

Bro that is legit 80 more than me.
Hope that it is not three dead brain cells.
About 25 years ago I took the Mensa admissions tests. The first one was the CTMM
(California test of mental maturity) the other Cattell B. On the first my score was 136.
On the Cattell it was 150. The thing about it is my 150 score was only in the 98 percentile,
while my 136 was in the 99 percentile. Those of you reading this that are in the top 50%
should be able to figure out the implications that arise with this knowledge. Those that don't or guess wrongly are probably in the lower 50%. Peace, out!
Dolph Lundgren is the nerd you don't wanna mess with
I bet no one on this list have pineapple on their pizza.

Some people join Mensa for one year just for the self-affirmation. People that stay in Mensa do it for other reasons, but mostly for the diverse socialization. Model rockets, check. Moroccan food, check. Rocket scientists and brain surgeons and ne'er do wells. Waiters and surfers and kindergarten teachers. If you are stuck in your career and location, you can connect with others who have some of your same interests. It's no more expensive to join Mensa than it is for many social organizations, and considerably less than many others. Plus there is some transparency in where those funds go, such as Research, grants, and grass roots support.
This was Astro me and super surprising!
Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster, Sigourney Weaver, Winona Ryder, Willem Dafoe should've been mentioned too! Anyway, nice to know I'm a fan of some intelligent celebrities like Madonna, Shakira, Matt Damon, Geena Davis, Goldie Hawn, Dolph Lundgren
James Woods who also aced his SATs and was enrolled in MIT. Weird Al Yankovic graduated high school early and has a degree in architecture.
Yup. Especially Jodie Foster should’ve been mentioned
Don't forget Mayim Bialik, Lisa Kudrow and Natalie Portman.
Winona Ryder shoplifted after her breakout role in Girl, Interrupted. Not very intelligent of her. And Jodie Foster joined the me-too movement even though she associated with known rapists like Woody Allen and Roman Polanski. Also not very intelligent of her.
A fan of Madonna? Why? She joined the cult of batshit crazy feminists. Not to be confused with the actual legitimate feminists of the first wave. Not that smart when you do crazy shit like that. Real feminism died in the 90s. Now it's just a bunch of crybabies bitching about minor shit and hating on everyone that doesn't do the same.
Well duh matt damon is a botanist!
Harvard English literature degree dropout
@@terrybatman r/wooosh
Haha I love Park Kyung
Interesting... for a benchmark comparison, Einstein had an IQ of 160
James Woods is 185. Full scholarship to MIT.
Hahahahaha😂😂😁 you people are really humble
James Woods has an IQ of 180.....his IQ is higher than everyone on this list
kyle davis Brian May has an estimated IQ above his.
Yeah this list is bunch of wank.
The Black Queen from Queen? I’m a fan of his guitar playing.
He’s not on the list because he’s a conservative.
Alamo1836 Yeah. He's also an astronomer with an estimated IQ of 180-190.
No surprise that celebrities have most common higher IQ’s (without Kardeshians taking in count), like everyone are they just normal people, and everyone (deep inside) wants to be known or famous, but these people took the risks and worked for it.
They have a lot of competition, but they were smart enough to become the people they are now known for!
Awwmygawd.., that sound very interesting
A lot of viewers here wouldn’t have heard of this guy but I hear Frank Lampard is very intelligent.
"MATT DAMON." - Matt Damon
How many people feel the need to mention what "mensa" translates to in another language?
James Woods? He nailed his SAT's and has a reported IQ of 180
They wont admit that because Watchmojo is a bunch of liberals. Just look at who they put as the top 10 worst Presidents. They had George W Bush but not Clinton or Obama.
You went to the "reported IQ of 160" well one too many times. Too much of a coincidence that at least 4 people on the list had exactly 160 scores. Not 161, not 159...160. And when you say "reported", do you mean "rumored"? Stephen Hawking and Einstein had IQ scores around 160. Matt Damon? Ashton Kutcher? Nope, sorry.
That's exactly what i was thinking... Four male celebrities on this list had an IQ of exactly 160 and all the women celebrities here had an IQ of exactly 140... Too much of a coincidence. Also is hard to believe that these celebrities are that smart... Watchmojo is not a credible source of information. That's it... I already knew it when it made lists like "top 10 actors" and "top 10 movies" and similar lists, that the people who make this kind of videos for watchjomo are halfwits...
most of these celebrities have never actually taken an iq test. They're literally just "estimating" aka guessing their iq. These same websites will show iqs for historical figures, even though iqs weren't even invented then...
You don't know the IQ of Einstein or Stephen Hawking.. their numbers are just as made up as the ones in the video.
@@philandros3195 Kind of funny you chose two people who actually have taken iq tests; Einstein really did test at 160 iq (162 being the max).
@@joeys2986
People have estimated their IQ's, but there are no official release of any test scores - as far as I know. If you believe there is, then show me, I don't mind being proven wrong.
I love your videos! And mine was last
a lot of directors/screenwriters are highly intelligent people. I think Steven Spielberg and many other s could have easily made the list
Ejay yeah I am smart with history and such idk about maths durrrrrrrr
I'm thinking Denzel Washington, Laurence Fishburne, Kanye West, and of course Lauryn Hill to name a few who should make that list!
It's really funny that Nolan is so much smarter than Luke. I bet Luke's IQ is, like, 4.
Dudley Moore an actor from the 1980s was probably a genius.
He was a brilliant concert pianist who was a comedic actor in several comedies of the 1980s.
He was in Arthur,10,etc.
Lol Dolph Lundgren being an intellectual genius is so funny
Steve Martian’s a wild and genius guy
Don't forget Ava Devine and Asia Carrera on this list

Y'all missed Lisa Kudrow.
You don’t really get anything out of being apart of MENSA, I took the test when I was 14 and got in, I got to take part in some fun events and even got tips on applying to Oxbridge but being apart of it doesn’t prove anything or give you any privileges since most of it you have to pay for. The forums are alright but really a waste of time. The test was fun to do though, it cost me about £30 and another £30 to join annually with certificate (it’s cheaper for kids). Don’t bother if you’re an adult since it proves nothing.
I bet they still can't understand how Rick and Morty works
BTS Kim Namjoon of BTS reportedly has an IQ of 148, making him a veritable genius. In case IQ numbers don't impress you, RM also scored 900 on the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC) while he was in middle school. He is also in the top 1.3% of the nation in the preparatory university entrance exams.

Greatly missed James woods and Steve buscemi not even an honorable mention.
1:17 isn't it Mark Watney from the Martians?
Taratino is nothing short of incredible
Ken Jeong (Mr. Chow) should be on this list. That guy is super smart. Before acting he was a physician at Kaiser.
Damn it Kelso.
Jr Smith as the *HiGheSt* IQ
I was hoping Maynard James Keenan would be on the list.
When you listen to Tool, A Perfect Circle or Puscifer and read the lyrics, you can see how intelligent he really is.
For example, the Tool song 'Lateralus' is based on the mathematical theory called the Fibonacci sequence.
(From wiki)
"In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers are the numbers in the following integer sequence, called the Fibonacci sequence, and characterized by the fact that every number after the first two is the sum of the two preceding ones: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8,13, 21"
"Fibonacci numbers appear unexpectedly often in mathematics, so much so that there is an entire journal dedicated to their study, the Fibonacci Quarterly. Applications of Fibonacci numbers include computer algorithms such as the Fibonacci search technique and the Fibonacci heap data structure, and graphs called Fibonacci cubesused for interconnecting parallel and distributed systems. They also appear in biological settings, such as branching in trees, phyllotaxis (the arrangement of leaves on a stem), the fruit sprouts of a pineapple, the flowering of an artichoke, an uncurling fern and the arrangement of a pine cone's bracts."
People have gone so far to theorize that the Fibonacci sequence is the secret to understanding the universe. As it is expanding in that sequence.
Anyway, the song follows those rules. The lyrics are done in that order. The beat is in that sequence and the song is about it. Part of the lyrics go: "Spiral out. Keep going".
And thats just one song!!
High intelligence doesn’t mean being smart...just saying.
I get what you mean. There's such a thing as multiple intelligences that go beyond the basic IQ test e.g. the idea of "street smarts"/interpersonal intelligence or body/kinetic intelligence for athletes.
Nolan Gould at 4:17 looks like Post Malone
Describing an IQ of 140 as impressively high is a bit of a stretch - anything under 150 really isn't impressive at all.
The writers of Rick and Morty
I think you guys forgot X-FILES actor DAVID DUCHOVNY. He hails 2 Degrees from PRINCETON(Bachelors Degree) and YALE(Masters Degree)
WIKIPEDIA SAYS "Duchovny attended Grace Church School and The Collegiate School For Boys (from which he graduated as valedictorian in 1978); both are in Manhattan. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa[17] from Princeton University[3] in 1982 with an A.B. summa cum laude in English literature. He was a member of Charter Club, one of the university's eating clubs. In 1982, his poetry received an honorable mention for a college prize from the Academy of American Poets. The title of his senior thesis was The Schizophrenic Critique of Pure Reason in Beckett's Early Novels.[18] He played junior varsity basketball at Princeton.[19] He earned a Master of Arts in English Literature from Yale University and subsequently began work on a Ph.D. that remains unfinished.[3] The title of his uncompleted doctoral thesis is Magic and Technology in Contemporary Fiction and Poetry."
Yes Park Kyung!!
James Woods?
my queen shaki 👑👑👑👑
160 is a perfect score... Calling bullsh!t right now because he would have to have an adjusted score.
*People gotta stop these lies*
Me Cooper that’s a perfect score on the Mensa test, not iq
Lol Good Will Hunting basically played himself ...
So my iq I was born with, but what I do with it is determined by environment. Makes a lotta wiggle room for success and failure. Now I know why my neighbors think I'm a stupid ass.
Time to get a banjo I guess
Cool
If Madonna has an iq then im going to a nutt house
Make your reservation.
This list should be in IQ order
Celebs are average. Just because they play as a doctor, doesnt mean they are smart enough to become one
Michael Scofield
lmao , I have been in Mensa for 30 years .. its OK if you like meeting at Denny's as there is not many people that show for the meetings.
I am Me Depends on the group. NYC has a decent showing.
I am calling bs... Even mensa Australia is active as hell... Which might as well just be mensa jr.
Also the fact that its not just a forum site... Like that is a pretty major factor...
Me Cooper In the US groups vary greatly region to region and unless you find people willing to plan things rather then complain meetings at a Denny’s ((shutter. Not even a diner)) are what happen. My advice is plan something you would enjoy, have your board slap it on the calendar and they may even have a budget to throw you some money to pay for it.
What are the advantages and perks of being in MENSA other than being known as a certified genius and having genius peers? I'm genuinely curious, like as an organization what do you guys do or talk about?
Jay Jin For me the benefits are primarily social. I was finding difficult to make friends as an adult with similar interests (one of Mensa’s mottos is where people get your jokes) and I’ve always been “the smart one” (i.e. the person who’s test people try to cheat off) so I decided to try. It has lived up to my expectations (even if so sometines have to plan the activities) and I have a network of friends pretty much everywhere. People are also very willing to help each other where they can in ways big and small. We do have out jerks like any group but I like to think the good outweighs the bad.
I like Mary Lu Henner. She and dozen others were in a TV show as the only people in US who can recall what they did on every day of their lives. If I recall starting around age of 3-4, they remember what they ate etc on any day. Seems a savant type of talent. Fascinating, as Spock would say.
LETS GO PARK KYUNG
Matt daemon is so smart but still can't realize acting career isn't for him..
Hey, if you love doing something, keep doing it even if you suck at it.
He's an Oscar winner actor...
Who Matt daemon ... ?
Mensa charges you to take their test.They are smart.
Natalie Portman?
I heard a celebrity was bragging at a party she was a member, only for an actual member to let slip that she'd never seen her at any of their meetings oops not so smart !
Ok so Matt Damon is genius
Why am I not surprised by Steve Martin
I smoke pot guess I am out 🤣🤣😂😂🤣
Steve Martin's contemporaries - Martin Short, Robin Williams, Billy Crystal, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd - I wouldn't be surprised if they have above-average IQ as well. Contrary to popular belief, making someone laugh is a lot harder than making someone cry.
Christopher Langan didn't get an Honorable Mention!? The Dude's IQ was like 215+.....
Malo Perverso He practices for the tests. That’s cheating.
Not that IQ tests are even close to accurate
Park kyung 😍😍
One thing we can be assured of,...... TaterHead Joe isn't a Mensa member.
MENSA test score .....does that mean how good you are at taking tests??
Being a celebrity is like being in mensa
My IQ is 127 not a genius but can you fight?
SunnySinclair1979 That is not a terrible IQ. However always remember the tests are flawed.
SunnySinclair1979 Anyone can fight if sufficiently motivated
Not that it actually counts coz its within 15 points... But still 125-135 range. XD I beat you! But yeah... I'm obviously not very consistent.

They say it takes avery smart person to convincingly play a Dumdum. Now we have proff of that!
I do not believe Madonna. For one second.
How about Hollywood icon Ms. Hedy Lamarr?
I have been Mensa qualified since 1965 (based on external tests) and a member since 2018. The organization is a social club for people with high test scores. It is not a society of geniuses. If you want an idea of who belongs, think of the kids who always got the highest test score in your school. But not the ones who went to Yale or MIT, if there were any. The person who goes on to become a renowned scientist, a Wall Street lawyer or an analyst with the CIA is not going to join an organization whose major activity is having a monthly meeting at a local pizza joint or a Chinese restaurant. The kid who is more likely to join Mensa is the one who pitched pennies with the C students during lunch hour, not the one who strived to go to best college and have a highly placed career.
One thing Mensa is vexed by is its own institutional fantasies about how exclusive it is. Mensa accepts the major college admissions test for membership. This includes the SAT, ACT, GRE and LSAT. Mensa also accepts the military general aptitude test, but here is the rub. Except for the LSAT, Mensa does not accept administrations of admission test after 1994 at the latest or the military test after 1980. Someone who took the military test in 1980 is at least 60 years old today, and someone who took the SAT in 1994 is at least 45 years old today. Refusing to take later tests flies in the face of logic. There has to be a median IQ for those at every level of score on any test and also a median score on every test for those at every IQ level.
The end result is that Mensa is a very old organization, and it is not likely to get many younger members if it continues to not accept more recent iterations of the common college and university tests. Being in Mensa is something of interest only to the person who is the member. I don't think anyone should be mentioning their Mensa membership on their resume or vitae. I wouldn't.
Notice how theirs no mumble rappers on this list
Where is Mr. Bean(Rowan Atkinson), he is a Genius.
And the other hand, what about actor James Franco, this is a increideble man with IQ in the MENSA club members.
And also IQ does not say anything about a person's prowess in education. It only shows that if used properly that particular person can get good at a particular field if they work hard
