Why Is 'Castle' Kissing Someone New?
Lawsuit: County Morgue Lost Woman's Body For 14 Months
In honor of back-to-school season, BlackVoices is celebrating some of our favorite celebrities who prove that getting an education is not only cool, but a beautiful and necessary start to a successful career.
Beauty & Brains
Sanaa Lathan: University of California, Berkley
The starlet received a degree in English considered pursuing a career in law. However, she decided to get her masters at the prestigious Yale School of Drama instead.
Lance Gross: Howard University
The 'House of Payne' hunk ran track and field for HU and turned down an opportunity to become a professional athlete in order to pursue his dream of acting.
Kerry Washington: George Washington University
The New York Beauty began acting in high school yet pursued a degree in Theater before taking on her dream full-time.
Boris Kodjoe: Virgina Central University
The sexy actor was once an aspiring tennis player and attended VCU on scholarship. A back injury ended his dreams of going pro, so the 'Undercover' hunk turned to modeling, which then led to acting.
Regina Hall: New York Universityy
The 'Scary Movie' starlet received a master's degree in Journalism from NYU before switching gears to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.
Brian White: Dartmouth College
The 'Stomp the Yard' star attended Dartmouth College where he became a member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity. After playing football in college, White was drafted by the New England Patriots. Although his football career came to an end, we're happy to see him on the big screen.
Nicole Ari Parker: NYU's School of Tisch
Parker studied at NYU's acclaimed School of Tisch and went on to receive her acting degree.
Denzel Washington: Fordham University
As a freshman, the 'American Gangster' star played b-ball as a power forward. After being unable to decide on his major, he dropped out for a semester only to return with the acting bug. He graduated in 1977 with a B.A. in Drama and Journalism.
La La Vasquez: Howard University
Vasquez majored in Communications at Howard and served as a disk jockey for her school's station.
Michael Ealy: University of Maryland, College Park
The sexy 'Takers' star attended college in his native state of Maryland.

smart & good looking....what a combination! =)
i know a lot of celebrities use common sense and spend wisely (even when they have a lot of money), which i guess is something i'm always working to imitate! i always like seeing articles and news on someone with money that still got a bargain or shopped at a thrift store or something like that. i get a lot of freebies from http://bit.ly/aqI8v9 and i think it's a site some of the celebrities are using now too. there's everything from beauty products to cleaning supplies and pet food samples. it's just a smart thing to save wherever you can.
