a school for kids of famous people?

madonna is irritating me.
i think it's lovely that she is funding education. i think celebrities who give to worthy causes are nice. however this school that she is starting will cost parents $3,500 a semester to send their child. $3,500. THAT'S FUCKING RIDICULOUS. so basically if you are wealthy, hey, send your child there! but if you are not, i guess you are just fucked... grrrrr......

Students could be attending the Kabbalist Grammar School for Children -- purportedly located down the street from the Big M's Manhattan digs -- by year's end, says the paper.
"The school has been a dream of Madonna's for some time," relays an insider. "Education means a lot to her and she was keen to make the most of her money by leaving a lasting mark as well as helping kids."
Admission requirements for the so-called K School will reportedly involve a rigid academic test and an in-depth family interview. Parents interested in having their little ones attend the school should be prepared to fork over about $3,500 a semester. For that price, the kiddies will not only get the standard three R's, but will be exposed to a curriculum centered in "spirituality." Oh, and non-Kabbalists need not apply.


stupid. stupid. stupid. a generation of small children wearing red string bracelets like brittney.

When is enough enough already? I think it sucks that people cater to celebrities every whim. Now one is starting a school based on a fradulant religion. Maybe next some star will become a raelian(I think thats how you spell it) and then we'll have children growing up thinking they are half alien reptillian creatures and half human. then we'll probably long for the days when rich people bought into little red stings and living forever, plus telling the future once a year. So much bullshit. Man, I still don't understand how people bought into-the name excapes me-L. Ron Hubbards fake religion. It was started as a joke. At what point did John Travolta or Tom Cruise go, I see the light, I believe. The dude wrote crappy science fiction! Whats to believe. Madonna's Kabbalism is just the next phase of celebrity weirdisms. It's funny, but you have to be rich to be able to afford those two religions. I wonder why?
