It always seems wild when well-known people opt to take a break and pursue much more conventional life paths, like enrolling in college. It doesn’t always stick, of course, because celebs lead busy lives, and have already achieved an enviable degree of financial success.

It didn’t work out for the Olsen twins either, but they’re doing fine. Natalie Portman finished her degree at Harvard, which is many impressive, but also the sole example of a celeb finishing an undergrad degree (after attaining fame) that I can think of. who is the most recent celeb to go the academic route?
