Paradoxical as it may seem, the presence of education is not at all a guarantee of success in life. However, his absence also does not in the least prevent him from reaching professional heights or building a successful business. For example, many celebrities did not attend college, not all of them even graduated from high school.
Jessica Alba
Jessica graduated from high school in Clermont, California. After graduation, she went to conquer New York. Jessica wanted to complete acting classes at the Atlantic Theater Company.
But the girl’s plans did not succeed. She interrupted her studies for the filming of the series "Dark Angel". After completing her studies, Jessica did not return. Now she owns her own business, which is estimated at a billion dollars, has four children and will act in films.
Marilyn Monroe
The woman, still considered the standard of beauty and success, dropped out of Van Nice School in Los Angeles in order to marry James Dougherty.
However, he was not the man who knows how to take care of a woman. Norma was forced to search for work. So she began to pose for photographer David Conover. He saw his pictures in the Blue Book agency and signed a contract with her. And a year later, Marilyn starred in her first film.
Lindsey Lohan
Unlike many other stars, Lindsay graduated from high school. She was able to combine shooting and training.
But the girl did not go to college. Instead, she went to conquer Hollywood, to act in films, which she excelled at.
Leonardo DiCaprio
The idol of millions dropped out of John Marshall High School in Los Angeles in order to take part in the filming of the comedic horror film "Critters 3". In the same 1991, he began acting in the series “Growth Diseases”, but quit the project after Robert De Niro himself wanted to see young Leo in his film “This Boy’s Life”.
Maybe Leo would return to school, but after the success of De Niro’s film, he was immediately invited to the project “What Eats Gilbert Grape”. On the set, Leo met Depp, who also did not finish school, but did not hesitate at all. Leonardo pondered and decided not to waste his time getting an education.
Demmy Moor
Demi attended a high school in Los Angeles called Fairfax. But she without hesitation left her at 16 in order to sign a contract with the modeling agency Elite.
Demi combined the work of the model with attending acting courses and when her contract came to an end, she went to conquer Hollywood, which she easily succeeded. Already in 1990, the actress received her first Golden Globe.
Katy Perry
Katie dropped out of school at age 15 and concentrated on playing music. And hardly she regrets it.
It is possible that she did not become so successful as Britney Spears, but there are still some hits in her piggy bank. And in 2008, she hit the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Emma Stone
Emma grew up in Scottsdale, Arizona. She attended a Catholic school for girls and was quiet. But, as you know, in a quiet pool there are devils.
One day, she decided to become an actress and drop out of school. But Emma did not run away, she talked with her parents and made a real presentation of her plans for them. The purpose of this was to convince the family that Emma needed to move to live in California.
She managed to convince her parents and today Emma is one of the most sought after American actresses.
Rihanna
Rihanna was born in Barbodos and went to school there. She probably didn’t particularly like it there, because she left her without thinking at the age of 16 in order to sign a contract with Def Jam Records.
Today, Rihanna releases hit after hit, owns her own line of cosmetics Fenty Beauty. But that is not all. Not so long ago, she launched her Savage X Fenty lingerie line.
Ryan Gosling
Ryan attended Lester B. Pearson High School in Canada, but did not finish it. He did not have enough patience to wait for graduation.
At seventeen, Ryan left his native Canada for the United States. He had experience in acting, at twelve he was a member of the Mickey Mouse Club team. He achieved success and fame pretty quickly.
Britney Spears
Few people know, but in show business, Britney has been spinning since childhood. At 11, she was a member of the Mickey Mouse Club team. She studied at one of the private schools of the state of Mississippi, but left her in order to make music, without being distracted by anything else.
She released her debut album at the age of 18. He immediately became platinum. They started talking about Britney as the new pop diva of America. Britney is rich, successful and does what she loves. It is unlikely that she feels a lack of education.
