KRISTEN Bell has been lumbered with the title of geek queen — and she loves it!

The Couples Retreat star says her roles on Heroes and on Star Wars-based indie flick Fanboys has made her hot stuff with nerds everywhere.

“It absolutely happened by chance,” explains Kristen. “I looked for projects with good material and good writing and it just so happened that a lot of them were genre projects. I didn’t plan it out, but I am ultimately flattered and happy to be accepted into that community.

“I love going to things like Comic-Con. I’ve been there five out of the past six years. The geek community has the most intelligent fans out there. They are very intense but that’s what makes them cool.”

Kristen, 29, recently revealed that she likes to play board games with her boyfriend Dax Shepard.

“It’s important to talk about your deepest, darkest fears and feelings,” she told Women’s Health magazine. “Your partner should hear your most embarrassing insecurities, because once you say them out loud, you’ve created a safe zone. A snuggle party can fix anything — it’s true.

“There is almost nothing, barring a natural disaster, that I would let eat into my time at home, playing Scrabble with Dax.” [Source]
