Did You Know? – Blake Lively
When I’m looking for information to use either for articles or celebrity birthdays I find a ton of interesting things about celebrities. So much so that I decided to start a ‘Did you know?’ category.
Today’s ‘Did You Know?‘ is about American actress, Blake Lively. Did you know that Blake was pegged as a ‘mentally disabled’ person because her mother put her in school too early?
“When I was only 3-years-old, my mom enrolled me in the first grade” Blake says. “My older brother was supposed to start school, but he didn’t want to go alone, so my mom told them I was 6 since I was so tall. But after a few weeks, they said they would have to put me in mentally disabled classes because I wasn’t up to pace with the rest of the kids. They thought that I was slow because all I wanted to do was sleep while the other kids were doing their projects. [laughs] So my mom took me out of school.”
That’s sad. I’m curious as to how her mother was able to pull that off though because I specifically remember having to miss the first 3 days of kindergarten while my caretaker ordered a birth certificate because you couldn’t be admitted into the school without providing one. That was almost 26 years ago and the same thing applied when I enrolled my son in kindergarten 3 years ago.
Interesting information anyway. I’d like to thank one of our frequent commenters, Kayla Mirkhani, for e-mailing me with this interesting information for this weeks Did You Know segment. Thanks Kayla!

Poor girl…..but she ended up beautiful, rich and with her own TV show. So I would say things worked out for her. haha
I was thinking the same thing
No kidding I’d Hit it.
I couldn’t even get into preschool because they thought I was too young. But I was short for my age. My ma and pa had to supply the school with a birth certificate too just to get me in. That was in 1977 or 78 I think!
That’s just weird, poor Blake. I think Blake Lively is beautiful! I love your name Jordasche its very pretty.
That’s just dumb to enroll your kid in school that early and all because she was ‘tall’ Stupid.
I would never do that to my kid! Poor Blake! Everything turned out great for her though I see Blake Lively is gorgeous.
Well it didn’t appear to do any long lasting damage that’s good news

Life & Beauty Weekly: Expert Q+A
A: "This sort of kindness is rare, so it’s natural you’d want to reciprocate. But if you have offered to repay (or treat) her and she resists, there’s no need to insist on giving her money.
Also try not to feel bad that she always pays. Coffee isn’t a big expense, and it sounds like she enjoys treating you. She may do it because she appreciates your friendship or support at work. Or perhaps she likes having an excuse to get out of the office and doesn’t mind shelling out a few extra dollars for you. Regardless, just thank her each time she pays. Then, every once in a while, surprise her with a tin of cookies or muffins. Or once a month or so, tell her you are taking her out for lunch. "

Men’s Life Today: Expert Q+A
A: "There’s no easy answer as to why you get them. Ingrown hairs are more noticeable in men with really thick hair -- as ingrown hairs are more prevalent in people with thick hair -- or dark hair with light skin. However, there are a couple of key things you can do to heal them and prevent future outbreaks.
First of all, it helps to understand the evolution of an ingrown hair: After hair removal, as the hair starts growing back, the sharp tip of the hair curls back in on itself and digs into the skin, leading to inflammation and irritation. If you do get one, remember this mantra: Put down the tweezers. Plucking ingrown hairs invariably fails and causes additional irritation. Instead, try applying an over-the-counter cortisone cream to help relieve inflammation, then head to a laser dermatologist for laser hair removal (no, not removal of all your hair -- just the problem ones). Realistically, laser’s the only long-term solution for ingrown hairs.
Electrolysis isn’t practical because of the number and thickness of hairs involved. And as for waxing, well, remember the 40-year-old Virgin? Enough said."
