![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
Finally, an explanation re: Kanye's feeble attempt to become the next Arthur Fonzarelli.
The superstar/emotional/ninth-grader was wearing a letterman jacket this week ... now we know it's from Kamaikin High School in Washington.
We're guessing it was a shameless attempt to recruit fans, because students at the school went nuts after seeing the video on TMZ. They made Friday Kanye Day. No word if the school will change its name to Kanye High -- come to think about it....

CD:Class of 07 --- you pretty much summed up everything i wanted to say. :)
but i will say this: i have never, ever, witnessed racism at kamiakin. ever. we are very united in one common goal: making kamiakin the best school around (and i must say, we are doing a dang good job! ;]) hearing everyone yell "BRAVE" at the end of the national anthem truly does give one goosebumps. my parents (richland high grads) used to think it snooty and rude, but not see it as the true symbol of unity that it is. our school is freakin' amazing.
oh, and fyi, im not that big a kanye fan. and its NOT because he's black. i just don't enjoy rap.
im sorry if you're upset everyone is white. thats the majority at kahs. i cant do much about it.

I bet thats the closest he's been to highschool. He's a no-talent, illiterate, idiot. Period. Dot Dot Dot.

Wow, I thought Kanye was about more than promoting stereotypical ideas of Native Americans. Look at that mascot ,I know for a fact none of my relatives ever looked like that. We are not mascots and this is not honoring our people.

Its actually spelled "Kamiakin" I should know I live right by there. The good news is that at least you guys know which state it is in and how to spell Washington so just by mixing up those two letters tmz I give you an A - thanks for trying.

Kanye is another Michael Jackson in training. His self value far exceeds reality. Frankly I think he's psycho. Time will tell.
