Summer’s over, and now it’s time to hit the books.

What was the best thing about school for , 17? “The skating rink,” she tells me. “We used to always do parties and dance around before school, because after school there were no parties. You had to go and study.”

Cheetah Girl , 23, always had a passion for fashion. “Sister Act came out when I went to public school, and I actually went and got my own version of the Catholic school uniform,” she tells me. “I remember had on Timberland boots with scrunchie socks with her little school girl outfit.

"This Is Why I’m Hot" rapper longs for the scent of his school days. “The one thing I can remember about the first day of school is the way the air smelled,” the MTV Video Music Awards nominee tells me. “For some reason, the smell of the air is different on that day.

Actor , 39, is glad he doesn’t have to go back. “When I came to the United States, I didn’t know English,” he tells me. “When my family moved to Providence, Rhode Island, we were the fourth Latino family there, and the second day, my teacher told me to go down to the principal’s office.

I started crying because I thought I was doing something wrong, and when I got down there I found out it was about getting my immune shots, and it had nothing to do with doing something wrong.”
