"I'm a fun person. I like cracking jokes and being completely nerdy"
About this Quote
“I like cracking jokes” does two things at once. It signals warmth (approachability is currency), but it also implies control. Humor is a way to steer the room, to puncture the intimidating aura people project onto you, and to preempt the tired assumption that a woman celebrated for her looks must be shallow, humorless, or unaware. The subtext: I’m not just being looked at; I’m participating.
The kicker is “completely nerdy,” a phrase that’s doing cultural work. “Nerdy” has become a safe shorthand for specificity, curiosity, and inner life - an identity that reads as earned rather than bestowed. Coming from a model, it’s also a subtle refusal of the “perfect” archetype: nerdy suggests obsession, awkwardness, and passions that don’t exist for the camera. In a media ecosystem that rewards relatability, Christensen frames herself as not just iconic but legible, someone with jokes, interests, and edges. That’s not trivia; it’s strategy.
