Why do you think that?

Merely because of his bizarre behaviour?

Jeez....
People, I'm sure there are some celebrities that have AS, but it's a little foolhardy to generalise that someone has AS based upon a few shared traits.

Why are people so obsessed with slotting emotions, behaviour, traits, and personality quirks into a dichotomy that is either AS, or, NT. It is ridiculous to assume that just because you think/feel/behave in a certain way and are an aspie, therefore others that think/feel/behave the same way must be aspie too. It would be fair to say that a lot of aspie traits, behaviour, feelings, etc., are not exclusive. It is all these things in their entirety which go towards demarcating one person as aspie, and others not aspie.

But I understand why we sometimes like to speculate about celebrities being aspie. It would be great to have some notable poster-aspies, to help further our case. We could do with a couple of famous figures to further awareness of AS.

Well, those are some good points, however I don't think she is....even if so she is an attractive and talented women. If she is an aspie it doesn't matter.

I think if she is acting bizarre, it's because people like here get detached to one degree or another from everyday reality at a pretty young age and never regain it. See also Winehouse, Amy...
