11 Celebs You’d Never Guess Have Law Degrees

Andrea Bocelli

Andrea Bocelli is an Italian opera tenor and multi instrumentalist. Unfortunately, he became completely blind at the age of 12, but was diagnosed with congenital glaucoma at 5 months old.

Bocelli gained more international fame in 1994 when he won the preliminary round of the 44th Sanremo Music Festival.

However, what many people don’t know about him is that while he was studying at the University of Pisa, his parents wanted him to pursue a law career. So, he performed local piano bars to earn some money before graduating and becoming a court-appointed lawyer. A few years later, he realized that his biggest passion was music, so he left law.
