That's what he said. Actually, he said "a lot of these cats think they're taking a shortcut but they end up taking a detour through the penitentiary."

True. Surviving the Game was the first time I really noticed him (as an actor).

Now, now, Ice-T, don't act all brand new. Some us remember when you had your gorgeous ex-wife posing in a skimpy bikini with guns.
I try to tell these kids that most of these rappers are actors. They aren't REALLY doing what Tupac, Ice-T, NWA, etc. claimed they were doing. That's why I still love the rappers and emcees who never faked the funk. Rakim was just a weed-head lyricist, LL Cool J was just a lady lovin' lyricist, I could go on and on.

I don't really see what the big deal is about this article, a lot of people trying to make it out in Hollywood don't have college degrees to begin with and I didn't get the "don't even bother with college" vibe from this slideshow.

What next?!
Miley Cyrus ANNOUNCES (that's the part that gets me about all of this) that she's not going to college yet.
http://wonderwall.msn.com/music/mile...tory?gt1=28135
OMG, WHAT WILL WE TELL THE KIDS?!
On another note, she looks like she's had the Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan surgery. Or she's coming into her looks, but it's probably surgery assisted and not a natural progression.

Do you blame her? You have to strike the iron while it's hot ( I think) and four years away from the public eye can end a career in Hollywoodland.

Point of the article, it's not about WHAT you know it's about WHO you know.

[Didn't read the article, so I'm not sure if she was talking about the "traditional" college experience]
There's nothing that says she can't take online courses or work out an arrangement with a university. Just like many other folks, she could juggle work and school if she really wanted to.

I think she says something about going 'back' to school later. I know Julia Stiles in particular attended school but she also dropped out of the acting world a bit while she did. It's not impossible but it's not ridiculous what Miley Cyrus is doing now either, assuming her money is being managed responsibly.
