Think about it, if you actually had to swap lives with them and everything that entails

I think I could quite easily plump for alex james.. farmer, writer, astrophysicist, in one of my favourite ever bands - the guys got it all

He probably would have been able to fly if he'd put his mind to it.

popular online encyclopedia can confirm..

"After studying at the University of Bath for two years he gained an honours degree in astrophysics. On 25 January 2007 James became the "Artist in Residence" in the Astrophysics department at the University of Oxford.[3]. Alex also joined the British Astronomical Association while Blur were still touring."

also he makes cheese, has what appears to be a lovely family, lives in the cotswolds, and has lived a general life of a debauched renegade academic. Jealous

Natalie Portman

Really intelligent (I think she has a degree from Harvard), great actress, seems lovely in interviews, and beautiful, with pretty good taste in music. I'm sure there are more worthy people, but off the top of my head, her.
