Celebrity News And Gossip: Ciara Mocked After Sharing Harvard Photo Shoot
Ciara completed the Business of Entertainment, Media and Sports program at Harvard University over the weekend. The 33-year-old singer shared a series of photos on her Instagram page with the caption, “My College Dream Has Come True and I’ll cherish this moment forever! What a surreal feeling walking to class everyday, interacting with my classmates, diving into case studies, exploring @Harvard campus and Cambridge! Never stop dreaming. Never stop believing! @HarvardHBS #HBS #BEMS”. However, the singer got mocked instead for her Harvard photo shoot.
A former college student ridiculed Ciara, “I wish I were able to have a full-on photo shoot while at school..I’m pretty sure if I took pictures of me “Studying” it wouldn’t look like this. I’ll be crying…. on top of that who’s taking pictures. But go off sis.”
Another commented, “Beyoncé is promoting HBCU’s … and meanwhile you’re trying to fit in at Harvard. Ugggh some black folks are just counterproductive to the movement… I thought she just started Harvard a few weeks ago and now she’s a graduate? Proof that money can get you anything. But congrats girl.”
One cheeky follower was eager to find out why Ciara was wearing sweaters, “Congratulations but I’m sorry the only thing I could concentrate on is where is it that cold that you are wearing sweaters. It is in the 90s here but feels like 100 and will be like that until November. Please forgive me for my rant it’s heat stroke”
However, some saw no wrongdoing in the “Level Up” singer. One wrote, “Lol ppl really mad because they assumed she was getting a degree. She put in her caption BEMS. All you had to do was look up what that was if you didn’t know. Many other celebrities/ business owners have attended this course.”
Another claimed, “Just an FYI for those hating: the BEMs program is a short course at Harvard for those in the Entertainment & Sports industry. This is from Harvard’s website: Who Should Attend Talent in the entertainment sector (film, television, music, nightlife, fashion, publishing, sports, performing arts), such as professional athletes, musicians, and actors Agents, managers, and other individuals who represent talent Senior or mid-level executives in business development, marketing, and strategic planning, who work or aspire to work for studios, networks, publishers, music companies, performing arts companies, sports leagues and teams, and other creative enterprises, Brand managers, promoters, consultants, investors, and others who are active in the entertainment industry.”
