Jennifer Lawrence Reveals She Dropped Out Of Middle School & Doesn't Actually Have Her Diploma
It’s hard to believe that Jennifer Lawrence never actually graduated, but it’s true.
In her interview with 60 Minutes, which will air on Sunday (February 25), the 27-year-old actress revealed that she actually dropped out of middle school to pursue a career in film.
“I dropped out of middle school. I don’t technically have a GED or a diploma. I am self-educated,” Jennifer revealed in the interview, adding, “I wanted to forge my own path.”
“I found what I wanted to do and I didn’t want anything getting in the way of it. Even friends, for many years, were not as important to me as my career.”
