James Reid Reveals Reason Why He Stopped Attending School

Here’s Reason Why James Reid Stopped Attending School In the Philippines

JAMES REID – Actor James Reid revealed the reason why he stopped attending school in the Philippines.

James Reid was born in Sydney, Australia, to an Australian dad and a Filipino mother. In 2010, Reid signed up for “Pinoy Big Brother Teen Clash,” which was the beginning of his showbiz career. Along with his ex-girlfriend Nadine Lustre, he co-starred in the popular television show “On the Wings of Love.”

He currently wears many hats, including a singer-songwriter, dancer, actor, record producer, and record label executive. In addition to establishing the record label and management firm Careless Music, James recently released his album “Love Scene.”

Just recently, James Reid revealed the reason why he stopped attending school. In an interview with Fun With Dumb, the actor said that his schoolmates took photos of him and sold them.

“When I first went there (Philippines), I was 16, to go to school, it lasted like a month,” he said.

During that time, Reid was not yet a celebrity.

“After a month, I was like I can’t do this anymore. I just felt awkward by it because some kids would like take photos of me in the classroom and sell it to other kids…”

“Every time I come to school, people would like scream,” Reid said.

A Twitter user posted a series of images of James being sold in their school in the past. Reid read the Twitter user’s post and responded with three face with peeking eye emojis.

“To clarify, I bought these and not sold them. These were printouts from his public Friendster account before and not stolen pics by the seller. Not to justify also but to contextualize, we were also 12-13 at the time who didn’t know better. We don’t have the right platform to reach James but we are sorry for this,” the netizen explained.
