What even is this video? Okay, let us explain:

According to Blog Preston, Coolio (AKA Artis Leon Ivey Jr) began his world tour at Ships and Giggles in Preston, England but decided to spend some extra time in the city after missing his flight to Zurich. He didn't leave town without stopping to hang out with some University of Central Lancashire students he met at the show.

The video poster wrote, "He wanted to cook for me and my house mates the following night and that's exactly what happened. We decided to take a break from the cooking and have a jam session."

Coolio's cooking career has been taking off, but his fans would never let him leave his music completely. He later told the Lancashire Evening post, “I played with some students and they kicked my ass. I was embarrassed. But I’m really having a good time. I’ll definitely come back to Preston.The people of Preston are cool.”

Weird Al, if you ever want to show up in some random dorm to sing "Amish Paradise," now's your chance.

With one of the most successful movie franchises in history ("Harry Potter") tucked away in her backpack, in the fall of 2009, Emma Watson headed to Ivy League Brown University. But two years later, in early 2011, she announced that she would be leaving academia to pursue her acting interests further. But always one to keep us guessing, in July 2011 she confirmed that she would, in fact, be returning to Brown in 2012 to complete her degree.

Mara Wilson was the adorable Nattie in "Mrs. Doubtfire" before growing up and heading to the big bad city to further her acting knowledge as a student at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. There she wrote and starred in her one woman show poking fun at her child stardom called "Weren't You That Girl?" She graduated in 2009.
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen(03 of09)

We watched them grow up before our eyes on "Full House," so when Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen first embarked on their college years at New York University, we kept our eyes on them. But the public's interest (and the razzing from fellow classmates) ultimately led Mary-Kate to drop out after just one year and sister Ashley soon followed.
Dakota & Elle Fanning(04 of09)

Although Dakota and Elle Fanning are currently the talk of Tinseltown, that doesn't mean they're not just as serious about academics. Dakota, her school's reigning homecoming queen two years in a row, graduated from high school in 2011 and began her Freshman year at NYU in September. Meanwhile sister, Elle, is still strolling the halls of middle school, managing to balance blockbuster premieres and academic finals.

James Franco is a serious drama actor and a serious student, to boot. The "Milk" star enrolled at UCLA in 2006 as an English major before graduating ahead of the curve in stellar time. The perennial student then matriculated to New York University and Columbia University simultaneously to study film making and creative writing, respectively. He then headed to Yale University to earn his PhD in English.
Connor Paolo(06 of09)

The allure of the Upper East Side seemed to be too much for "Gossip Girl" star Connor Paolo, who dropped out of New York University after studying there for just one semester in the Fall of 2008.
Natalie Portman(07 of09)

WIth several successful projects, including "The Professional" and "Star Wars," already under her belt, Natalie Portman got her Ivy League on when she enrolled at Harvard University in 1999 and graduated from the esteemed school four years later.
Haley Joel Osment(08 of09)

Although NYU area sidewalks were chalked with the famous line "I see dead people" upon Haley Joel Osment's 2006 arrival at freshman orientation at the metropolitan university, that didn't stop the "Sixth Sense" kid actor from making the most out of his post-celebrity college years.
Tyra Banks(09 of09)

She may have written the book on "smizing," but Tyra Banks wasn't so confident in her entrepreneurial education -- she enrolled in Harvard Business School's Owner/President Management Program in 2011.
