She’s so amazing. This speech is full of much needed wisdom in today’s age and time, and is wonderfully rehearsed. It’s a shame it isn’t viewed more

[@turkishdelight2013]

Aria Sijia Li coz it’s not true she got far coz she’s a gorgeous white Woman! No hate for her but it’s just the American way

[@dmaster1000]

@@turkishdelight2013 that's true, but at least she's not an "untalented" gorgeous white woman. she has great work with her craft. but i most definitely agree!

[@kikiKaysie]

To the arrogant grads who think you’re better than her because she dropped out of college, you’ll never be as successful as she is. Other grads, congrats! Welcome to the real world. You will be fine!

[@Justin-ev8nn]

She’s wealthier than all those arrogant grads lmao

[@kikiKaysie]

@Justin Noowin And nicer too :)

[@ilial9683]

believe me they do not envy her, she is famous for sleeping with producers, other actors and for having not talent, formal education, been so ugly etc... money easy money goes not make you better, i rather have a masters degree than be like her

[@Justin-ev8nn]

ilia L She has no talent? Acting and singing is a talent if I remembered. I could care less if she sleeps with directors and other actors. She has a memorable life. The life you’re seeking is so basic. You follow what society wants and that is the old, boring education route. The same route that 95% of the population does. She’s different and unique and that’s what makes her stand out. If you could have her life or go get your masters, why go for the debt-wrenching option? Formal education doesn’t guarantee success anymore. If anything, it’s a scam to kids nowadays since it’s so expensive when most of the things you learn in class aren’t even applicable in real life or you can just teach it yourself through the internet.

I bet saying "guys" probably drove the university nuts.

[@sissyrrr98]

Jason U eh I’ll be with my girl friends and we’ll say guys. It’s shifted to a gender neutral term in some cases. Or at least that’s how I think of it

@@sissyrrr98 It's not about gender it's about the casualness of it

really? more than "asshole" and "unprotected make-up sex" did?

[@kieransmith4353]

why do you have famous people give speeches at when the classes leave college or university in america as in never happens in other countries

She is awesome, however, the Universe is not an entity...its just space. lol!

oh and usc sucks so, theres that. lol

[@WeedTacos]

I like your comment and it is funny, but where is your proof that the universe is not an entity?

[@grizllyman]

a Disney princess with a sense of humor ? I guess it's time for the end of the world!

[@evaklein3424]

y'all do realize that she lied her way through this speech right? they all do with those speeches. she didn't get successful by being nice or pretty. she got through by having a cold exterior, manipulation, ass kissing, and a good agent who pushed her everywhere and anywhere so that people would simply get used to her - whether they like her or not.

[@turkishdelight2013]

I don’t dislike her but I have to disagree with her on her speech! What she is oblivious to is the fact that her white privilege got her through most of those moments and the fact that she is beautiful. It’s wrong but no matter how Nice you are if you’re not a gorgeous white woman in America you won’t get far! Again I know it’s wrong but it’s just the American way

[@randellelinner6290]

turkishdelight2013 sadly you’re right

[@adamjeffries7235]

except youre wrong. first of all the speech is ABOUT her preety/ nice priviledge and she began with how her famous handsome white husband did not have this privilege you can hang everything on white ..

[@turkishdelight2013]

@@adamjeffries7235 her husband ain’t handsome, and men don’t get the pretty white privilege the same way women do. I’m not wrong you’re ignorant for calling me wrong. clearly you don’t get it! Bye can’t be bothered with you

[@charlesdegaulle1943]

Un Successful Celebrity! Shame. USC is falling.

[@InvertedFreeSolo]

Unsuccessful? Way more successful than you, I guarantee that.

[@Max-ip1gw]

Excuse me? Un successful? Have you not heard of Frozen? $2 billion worldwide. Bad Mom's, Forgetting Sara Marshall, Veronica Mars. Etc.
