It's a pretty impressive bunch, including many world leaders.
The importance of school is overplayed, in my opinion, and I say this according to my right to Freedom of Speech. That's not to say that you should drop out, but you're not going to learn much that's practical or useful in school, and you need to be creative in your own right.

it's hard to say because many famous people who were "child stars" got their education thru tutors and may not have "graduated" from a high school but did go to school and graduate. i don't think kat von d graduated from high school. maybe she did... but i know she has been tattooing since she was 14 years old. she's now 24 or 25.
