Mindy Kaling has blasted her Hollywood peers for giving "too much advice."

The Mindy Project creator and star urged a class of new graduates not to listen to tips on diets and parenting from uneducated celebrities while giving a speech at Harvard Law School's commencement ceremony in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on Wednesday. "Celebrities give too much advice, and people listen to it too much. In Hollywood, we all think we're these wise advice givers, and most of us have no education whatsoever," the 34-year-old said. "Try to be the kind of people who give advice to celebrities, not the other way around," she added.

Kanye Speaks at Harvard

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Features,

Kanye West has been giving advice to students at Harvard.

The "Yeezus" rapper made his debut as a guest speaker at the prestigious Harvard School of Design yesterday, before his concert in Boston, and he explained why he's being doing two-hour interviews with the likes of Oprah Winfrey recently.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, he said, "The reason why I turn up so much in interviews is because I've tasted what it means to create and to be able to impact and affect in a positive way, and I know there is more creativity to happen. I know there are traditionalists that hold back the good thoughts and there are people [in] offices that stop the creative people and are intimidated by actual good ideas. And I believe, like, utopia is actually possible. But we're led by the least noble, the least dignified, the least tasteful, the dumbest and the most political. In no way am I a politician; I'm usually at my best politically incorrect and very direct. I really appreciate you guys' willingness to hone your craft and not be lazy."
