Moby Complains Of Star Wars 'Nerd Wrath'

February 25, 2008
Moby Complains Of Star Wars 'Nerd Wrath'Moby says he’s been subjected to “nerd wrath” after dating Star Wars actress Natalie Portman.

The dance star stepped out with the stunning actress a couple of years ago when she was starring in the risible prequels to the sci-fi film franchise, and that’s made him a target to Star Wars fans.

He explains in a new magazine interview, “As far as the very brief affair that I had with Natalie, it's made me a target of a lot of nerd wrath.

"You don't date Luke Skywalker's mom and not have them hate your guts."

However, Moby admits he’s definitely a nerd himself – and that’s not all bad.

"I guess in some people's eyes, they might be mildly sexy - and, as a nerd, I'm certainly happy to enjoy some of the effects of that,” he explains.
