Rapper/actor ICE CUBE has a secret skill - he's a certified architect. The FRIDAY star, who plays a hapless house fixer in new movie ARE WE DONE YET?, once studied architectural draft in Arizona while he was waiting for his rap career to take off. He says, "When N.W.A was first about to pop off I wasn't sure if I was gonna make a living at it... Cussin' on the radio? I didn't know if that was gonna bring me any money. "So I ended up going to school in Phoenix and spending a year out there... (but) I haven't picked up my certificate since I got it. "If you want me to draw you up a house I can draw you up a house; I don't know if it's gonna be liveable."
