7 Celeb Hipsters Who Look Like Clark Kent




From Urban Outfitters to Williamsburg, it seems like every one is trying to look like a hipster nowadays. Despite common belief, the hipster trend has existed for quite a while, the year 1938 to be exact. Let me introduce you to the original hipster: Clark Kent.

Superman's hush-hush alter ego Clark Kent first debuted his hipsterness in the beloved DC Comics. His wide-brimmed specks, posh, slicked-back hair, and dapper suit prove Kent is the ultimate hipster.

With the Zack Snyder-directed film Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavill, about to hit theaters, it felt right to bow down to Clark Kent and give him the praise he deserves as the hipster of all hipsters. All these other "hipster" celebs are just wannabees. Launch our gallery to view seven celebrity hipsters desperate to get on Clark Kent's level.


Hugh Dancy

Don't look at the camera, that'd be like way too mainstream. The British Hannibal actor shows off his Clark Kent ways in honor of Zack Snyder's summer blockbuster Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavill. We've put together seven celebrity hipsters trying to get on Clark Kent's level. You may not have heard of some of them, they're kind of oscure...
  
 

Paul Rudd

Paul Rudd knew who Clark Kent was even before Clark Kent was created. Such a hipster... You would think that the This Is 40 actor's dorky grin would take away from his hipster look, but nah, he's still rocking a plaid shirt and thick-rimmed glasses.
  
 

Justin Bieber

Bieber is the definition of mainstream, so it's surprising to see him channeling his inner hipster. The Biebs went for a more sophisticated look in this photo from his Barnes and Noble book signing. It goes to show that a pair of glasses can go along way.
  

 

Matt Bomer

Matt Bomer's scruff and clean suit scream Clark Kent. We knew Bomer had the body of Superman after watching him in Magic Mike, but who would have guessed that he could pass for Superman's nerdy journalist alter ego, too?
  
 

Joe Jonas

Damn, Joe. You clean up nice! This Jonas Brother's whole look gives off a Clark Kent hipster-esque vibe. From the glasses to just the right amount of facial hair, the Pom Poms singer would be right at home playing in an underground Williamsburg coffee shop... well, besides the fact he's a product of the Disney corporation.
  
 

Zachary Quinto

The Heroes star's wide, clear frames and his just-loose-enough tie epitomizes hipsterness. The sexy Spock's gelled hair totally parallels Clark Kent's slick style, too.
