[Anonymous]

WTH happened to Felicity Huffman, that she looks like a completely different person? Anyone? I did not recognize her!

No, I wasn't born yesterday. I know this happens. And it's not that funny either. Children deserve better from their parents. Sad world we live in.

SO disappointed in Lori Loughlin! What's worse, the humiliation of the world knowing she did this or her kids being too dense to get into college on their own?

Lori is an idiot. Her kid did not need to go to college. She is good looking, connected, rich and already a fashion influencer. That kid needed a Kris Jenner to make her a billionaire, not a college degree.

Which one is the husband?

I wonder why William Macy was not named. The court documents are floating around the internet and he is referred to in them as her husband being a participant.

I just went to her daughters IG page. You are right, she's very pretty. Her IG comments are in shambles.

Genuinely asking and not trying to throw shade - Is it really so difficult for an in-state student to get accepted into USC that the student would have to claim to be a highly accomplished athlete? It's not an Ivy League school...

I think it is pretty difficult. A quick google search tells me this:
9,042 out of 56,676 applicants were admitted making USC a very highly competitive school to get into with a low chance of acceptance for typical applicants. Academically, it has exceptionally high requirements for admission test scores, generally admitting students who score in the top 7 percent.

USC is not public so in-state doesn’t matter at all.

And it’s not a state school, so the “in-state” is not an advantage. (Of course, all the DCUM uber elites would never lower themselves to USC level).

So I didn’t read the article yet — but how did they get into Sysnford and Yale? Through fake test scores? They had to have decent grades.
