Nikita Willy dropped out of school last year

AKARTA: It seems actress and singer Nikita Willy has chosen her career in showbiz over education.

The 17-year-old said Wednesday that she dropped out of school last year to focus on her career.

“It’s true that since the beginning of the semester last year, I withdrew myself from school and enrolled in homeschooling,” Nikita said as quoted by inilah.com.

Her statement rebuffed rumors that the starlet had been expelled from school due to bad grades.

The “Favorite Actress” at the Panasonic Awards in 2010 and 2011 said she made the decision because she didn’t want her hectic schedule to take a toll on her grades.

She preferred to drop out of school because she didn’t want to put her goal to become a doctor in jeopardy should she get bad grades, she added.
