My point is that I agree with you, you Aiken-Manilow lover.

Uhhh...this thread is about Fantasia's education level and not that of others. And we already concluded that Fantasia had her GED prior to getting her honorary high school diploma.

As I said, a diploma or equivalent should be the minimum education level. That applies to anyone in this society--celeb or nonceleb.

Uhh, very rarely do threads stay on their intended topic.

Additionally, I don't care about her (or any other star's) education level. It is their business.

Uhh...was that your way of bringing up the other topic or just questioning why we didn't care to discuss other celebs right now?

Well, on that uncaring note, thanks for joining us in a thread about Fantasia's GED and honorary diploma.

My pleasure. I try to do what I can do when I can do it.

I didn't realize she had her GED before getting this honorary diploma. In that case, in Pennsylvania, you can do the same thing.

If you quit high school by a certain age/ grade-level (let's say 11th grade-but, please don't quote me on this) and you end up getting your GED, if you go to the h.s. you quit, for about $20 and proof of your GED, you can walk for graduation, be added to the Alumni newsletter/database, and even attend Alumni events. It's almost as if you didn't quit. The only thing that sucks about this is that the school can count that towards their high school graduate quota, even if the person really quit school and got a GED--meaning, their numbers for dropout rates decreasing looks better than they actually are.

There's a point there though, we don't tell Brad Pitt that he should go back and finish his degree even though his looks won't last forever. We don't usually care about a celeb's education unless it makes news because they say something about it. A college degree is pretty optional in show business barring perhaps classical training in the theater.

Yeah, are we supposed to know that Brad Pitt doesn't have a high school diploma or GED unless someone makes it public?

I don't know which celebs don't have a high school diploma or GED. I know about Fantasia because of this thread. I didn't even watch her movie close enough to gather that she never finished high school.

But, since it makes people feel better, Brad Pitt is an uneducated broken English bitch. He barely missed the mark of being a statistic prior to becoming famous (unlike Fantasia whose movie was based on her being a statistic who triumphed through adversity).

That wasn't so bad. I expected the spelling to be much worse than it was. And it is a crying shame how many Americans confuse homonyms. Fanny has only been reading at a highschool level for a short while so I'll give her time to grow.

I can't believe she flounced!
