In a recent article posted on CNN.com, Katia Hetter calls out two of our fave celebs, Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber, saying that they have “terrible handwriting,” that their signatures are “barely legible.” Sure, their sigs might not be the neatest, but judging a person’s ability to write by an autograph scrawl is kinda silly, don’t ya think?

Everyone seems to be totally flipping because they think that generations to come won’t know how to write neatly if they don’t learn cursive. But let me fill you in on a little secret—I learned cursive and I never even use it. I always write in print, and so do all of my peers. So why is everyone getting so worked up about how we write?

When you think about it, every celebrity, young and old, has a pretty sloppy signature—they write it so fast and so often that they get used to doing it quickly to get the job done. They can’t hate on Miley and the Biebs for their sloppy signatures when everyone that came before them signed just the same way.
