15 celebrities who have higher education or even a doctorate (16 photos)

Who is this smart and educated person? Of course, we did not expect from people well-known in the field of entertainment that they were all dark and, God willing, had graduated from high school - at a minimum, they could easily get a degree in the field of art and culture.





But there are more interesting cases. Some celebrities we know as actors, musicians or athletes have rather sudden degrees. Someone graduated from Harvard or Cambridge with Oxford, which is cool in itself, but it’s even cooler when the scope of their education turns out to be difficult to compare with their media image, which is created in films or on carpets.

Let's look at a few examples.
