Dr. Dre deleted an Instagram post about his daughter getting into USC 'all on her own' after news of him donating $70 million to the school in 2013 resurfaced.
In the now-deleted post, the music mogul wrote,"My daughter got accepted into USC all on her own. No jail time!!!" Accompanying the post was a picture of his daughter proudly holding her certificate of admission.
It was a veiled reference to parents accused of cheating to secure admission to colleges, like actress Lori Loughlin, who wasto bolster their two daughters' chances of getting into USC. By Sunday evening, the rapper and founder of Beats by Dre had deleted his post after social media users found that he and producer Jimmy Lovine made a $70 million donation in 2013 to the school for the creation of the Jimmy Lovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation.
The prestigious private university is among a number of schools involved in the $25 million college admissions scandal which focused on getting students admitted to elite universities as recruited athletes, regardless of their athletic abilities, and helping potential students cheat on their college exams, according to the March 12 indictment.Farnoush Amiri
