Kimora made sure to take a jab at controversial celebs Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman amid reports claiming they were involved in scandals to get their kids into colleges.

“Yoki can’t row or anything like that. There was really no hope for us in that area. I’m just so proud that you did it on your own… Praise the Lord,” Kimora says in the video, taking a jab at the recent college admissions scandal allegedly involving Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman. Loughlin specifically is accused of paying $500,000 to an admissions fixer to say Olivia and her sister Isabella were part of the rowing team when that was not true — which was what Kimora was alluding to.

Last week, music icon Dr. Dre put up a since-deleted Instagram post announcing his daughter is going to USC.
