Idol Fantasia goes back to school...
Oh am I always proud of someone or anyone admitting they need to go back to school, especially when they don't have anything to fall back on than their fame. Which we all know especially in SA that, that never lasts ever.
Now U says she want to go back to high school and finish her matric, since she dropped out on the 9nth grade.
"I've been talking about it for so long," Fantasia told E!Online earlier today. "I have a lot of young people who look up to me, like my 15-year-old brother and 7-year-old daughter. It's something that I really need to do and that I want to do."
The singer, who rose to fame and fortune as the winner of Idol's third season, says she's back on solid ground after dealing with the possibility of one of her homes being foreclosed and put up for auction.
Another person who dropped school for Idols was our previous winner Jodi Williams (19), but rumour has it that the reason for her absence is because she is back in school, although she is getting special classes where her school mates wont scream in class because she is famous.
Okay its cool she is getting an education to finish her matric but that special classes bulls*** is so not on, I mean the teachers did not say she must go and audition or even enter the damn competition, so she must head to class like all kids do. Shame on her for demanding special treatment with Matric!
Others I have to give my kudos to is former Miss SA Tansey Coetzee, singer and dancer Chomie, the gorgeous and best behaved Miss Teen Zizo Bheda for being in tertiary for the right reasons. God bless them for being smart and realising that beauty and music are not going to last forever but education does. And then there are those that head to school just because they like the buildings, hear I speak of Bonang, I hear alot of rumours from learners at UJ that she just hangs out there to be with her friends? Believe it or not I am still proud of her for taking herself to school.
I just wished though that all schlebs would go back to school, like DJ Tira and L'Vovo who dropped out of tertiary all for the supposed love of music. And then there are those schlebs that seems to be an exemption because we don't have to find out if they went to school or not because every time they open their mouths they put their foot in it- whether they are trying to engage in an intellectual conversation or not.
Education is the key guys go back to school, that way when the record companies, the acting and the pageants don't work out you can always have a back-up with that degree or diploma.
