Judy Greer Describes Her Lonely High School Years on 'The Early Show' (VIDEO)

On 'The Early Show' (weekdays, 7AM ET on CBS), actress Judy Greer explains that she was an unpopular "loser" and "ugly duckling" who "couldn't get a date" during her high school years.

"I wasn't getting screamed at in the hallways all the time ... But ... I was a little lonelier than most," said Greer, describing how a pair of green tights once earned her the nickname "chia pet."

Then, almost as if to prove she hasn't necessarily lost her nerdy, outcast edge, Greer goes on to explain her fervent passion for knitting.
