Since it came out that Full House star Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman of Desperate Housewives supposedly paid and scammed their kids’ way into college, a lot of celebs have been coming forward to have their say.
Julia Roberts commented during an interview about her new film, Ben is Back, and now rapper and producer Dr. Dre has had a go at the offending parents.
Dre posted a photo on Instagram celebrating his daughter’s acceptance to the University of Southern California (USC).
Here’s CNN:
The rapper, whose real name is Andre Young, posted a picture with his daughter, Truly Young, and her acceptance letter to the school.
“My daughter got accepted into USC all on her own,” the rapper wrote in the caption. “No jail time!!!!”
The comment was clearly a thinly veiled stab at the college admissions scandal. Unfortunately for Dre, people remembered that time he made a massive donation to USC.
But critics were quick to point out in the comments of Dre’s post that his daughter’s acceptance to the university came just a few years after he and producer Jimmy Iovine made a $70 million donation to the school.
Dre and Iovine made the donation in 2013 to establish the Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation, according to a university press release at the time.
Awkward.
Still, a donation doesn’t mean bribery. Truly could have gained admission on her own steam.
Dre clearly wasn’t taking any chances though, and promptly deleted the post.
