NYU awarded Taylor with an honorary doctorate degree and invited her to speak at commencement. I'm pretty sure I read a lot of these quotes on Tumblr in middle school...

@@greetingz1540 lol 😂🤣
Taylor Swift’s speech is like the living embodiment of the “Hang in there” cat poster you might see hanging on the wall in an office break room somewhere.
Or hanging on the wall of a kids 1990s bedroom
Lmfao! 🤣☠
Hang in there 📿📿📿☠️☠️☠️
If you watched her whole speech she gave pretty good speech
People who complains all the time about other people are literally the most jobless people
Taylor's entire life is a series of inspirational posters she saw but never took to heart.
Instead of Tumblr quotes she should just quote her own songs:
"Guys, you have to know that in your life, haters gonna hate, fakers gonna fake...but you just have to shake it off"
"When you graduate, is normal to ask yourself: is this gonna be forever? Or it's gonna go down in flames?"
LMAF
She actually did quote some of her songs (22 and welcome to new york)
That song was seven years ago dude, you're living under a rock
@@sirsnakespeare still doesn't mean it would've been great
"Sometimes giving up is the strong thing
Sometimes to run is the brave thing
Sometimes walking out is the one thing, that will find you the right thing"
- Taylor Swift
Album : Evermore (deluxe)
Track : It's time to go (bonus track)
So many people barking here as if Taylor is the first person to receive an honorary doctorate degree. I mean Celine Dion, Ed Sheeran, and Kanye have one too but they didn't receive this much hate than Taylor.😂
Taylor Swift whines about boyfriends, I just don't like her lmao
Plus the rest of them didn't have a cringy speech xD
@@names-mars I highly doubt you watched all their speeches lol, and your saying Taylor only sings about her exes cause you are totally wrong, because she has many songs about other topics too like depression, love, friendship, s*x, politics, about her grandmother, and so many more.. Of course you don't know that because all you know about her is her mainstream songs and not her deepcuts.
@@grangergalinz5681 I said she whines about her bad choices in boyfriends. I didn't say she only sings about her boyfriends. You notice how those 2 are completely different?
Anyways, I don't like her. So it explains why I don't give a crap. Her speech was cringe inducing.
To be fair, and like her or hate her, she has done more in music than entire graduating classes of your typical music school of a university. Same for authors and English dept grads, Sports people vs Phys Ed departments, Actors and grads with theater degrees. Exceptions, rules proving.
Being the swiftie I am, I can 100% confirm this video is hilarious and Brett perfectly criticized it. It too reminds me of my sad, cringe, Tumblr days..
as a swiftie also I agreed with most of it also😂
@@thatskrazy8145 So your judging a persons IQ based of a small clips you saw in the internet? That sounds like the reasoning of a shrimp
@@nombreapellidos1966 what context could there possibly be to speak like a 12y old girl who thinks life is a fairy tale?
@@gambino883 The whole speech was pretty great. Maybe you think being sexually harassed, experiencing an eating disorder because you need to look perfect for everyone, watching your mother go through cancer, having your best friend commit suicide, being scrutinized and hated by millions of people, is a fairytale but I really don’t. Not a single person lives in a fairytale, grow up.
@@nombreapellidos1966 you just described millions of other people who don't have the money and influence she has and also deal with those things in life.
High trees catch a lot of wind.
Of course it’s never a problem until it’s Taylor Swift. Ed sheeran got one and on one made any noise. Her astonishing career inspired people into pursuing music career, bring lights to music across the world. It just makes sense to me that she got honored the degree in “fine art”. Plus, honorary degree cannot used as a normal degree to get a job. It’s just to acknowledge her crafts and her contribution to the music industry.
Exactly, freakin Micheal Keaton got one, and so did Chadwick Boseman, this woman has been in the music business for about 17 years, now and her success is nowhere near ending, she has had one the best musical careers in this generation.
Ah yes, the Fine Arts degrees. Been there, studying fine arts, listening to all those lectures. Good times, lot of fun, but on the professional level I can definitely say it's total BS. You can't "learn" fine arts. You can be busy with this stuff and that can be somewhat useful but in the end you either have the talent or you don't--and studying will NOT change that. At all.
So, weirdly enough, I'd say Taylor actually deserves this. She definitely has the talent, so...
But, I agree, in STEM fields (or medicine or even most humanitarian disciplines like history or sociology) it makes absolutely no sense. Only if you've already got your degree from another Uni and then you get additional one from a different one. That would be the only exception I can see. All the rest of it is just stupid little influence peddling or outright corruption.
A little self-deprecation or candor would go a long way. She's polished/guarded enough that there's not a lot of sense of emotional resonance. She doesn't need to catalog her most private regrets, but the problem with tumblr quotes is that they're abstract. If you let your guard down slightly, then you can express the same idea while conveying you're working from personal experience.
If you notice people who like this stuff are all shallow NPCs. People who like horoscopes also tend to like 'magic', intersectional politics, therapy, and believe what they hear on CNN. They are people who are confused by the word salad and are happier just plugging in their own bullshit. In its essence they prefer things that are vague and can be used as confirmation bias.
Thats how you can tell they are NPCs. They have vague 'one-size' coding that fits any line of shit.
omg yesss she looks so pressed watching this video trying so hard to be cool
I think she was vulnerable too, people just didn't clip it, they just clipped the slightly dumb advice.
Why would she need to be rude to herself ? I agree that we all need to do that once in a while but that would just ruin the moment .. also I’m sure if she did people would say she was sneaking attention /complements
If you watched her speech she did talk about her vulnerability.
She wanted the honorary title so she can finally make the transition into rap as Dr. Swift
Country to pop to rap. What a trip
Dude that's great 🤣
@@commanderwill2248 country to pop to indie* to rap 😭
Should be the top comment
and so that Ed wouldn't look down on her :D
The whole point of a doctorate is to say "I can do this". I think Taylor Swift has easily proven that to be true.
Lol, I was there and heard it live. To Taylor’s credit, she acknowledged how funny it is that she’s a doctor now when she can’t save anyone.
The reality is that getting an honorary doctorate does not make her a doctor🤷♂
@@jerrycrouch427 Though I wouldn't be surprised if she is under the impression that she just earned a medical degree!
@@rouleauxvanzyl2834 which she is well aware of that if you have watched the full video of her speech you'd know she addressed about it.
@@Azarath_Metrion_Zinthos I am very surprised!
@@rouleauxvanzyl2834 why?
“I feel like I’m going to trigger some people with this video” I think you do that with every other video and that’s what we love, you speak the truth rather than most democratic agreeing people
Is Brett a democrat? I didn’t know that. That’s so interesting.
i remember back then while every celeb is using instagram/twitter, taylor chose to have an official tumblr acct. lmao.
it's sad that they got to her, she was apolitical before (at least publicly).
Real graduates can console themselves with the knowledge that these honorary degrees are NOT a qualification. They are literally just _honorary_ . You can’t actually use them to get a job. They’re token recognition for a job already done 😂
Ahh good, now it's just MOST of the "real graduates" that I went to school with that can't form coherent arguments, write a functionally correct sentence, or actually understand the complex theories they are supposedly "educated" in
@@stevescuba1978 sounds like you chose (or could only get into) a low-ranked institution 🤓
@@L-mo this is what I’ve noticed happens when people are handed their degrees after online school 🤷♀️
People with a honorary degree are more like those who give you jobs, not those who look for them
@@L-mo I could likely have gone where I wanted. I went to a respectably ranked business school at a decent public university.
Don't worry, the condescending elitist attitude, that you just displayed, was still prevalent, even if it wasn't Ivy league. My father was a college professor (as were his father and brother), in the states and abroad, I've been around enough academic institutions and their "elite" enough to know what is what.
I also taught courses for the Air Force, which has its own accredited community college. I taught professional writing, so would consider myself reasonably well positioned to make a judgement on the caliber of graduate and their ability to think and communicate.
There may have not been anything groundbreaking about her speech but it was uplifting, humorous and pretty well balanced out. And you can’t sit here and tell me that you wouldn’t be excited or hyped if you were there, like come on.
OP: "And you can’t sit here and tell me that you wouldn’t be excited or hyped if you were there, like come on."
I can very honestly say exactly that!
I am a swiftie and I expected way more creativity and depth from her than this
I can honestly say, I'd be very frusterated with Taylor if that was what I got at my ceremony.
Quit projecting.
I've never been the kind to be excited over famous people. I've never understood it, and I'm kind of very happy about that. No, I don't think I would be
Taylor mentally stuck in her 17, and unfortunately can’t move forward.
I was born in 2001 and I never had a Tumblr phase. Words can't describe how grateful I am for that.
Dude same!
Same. N I feel like all the people that were there grew up to be problematic nowadays lol 💀
Same
Awwww .... my firstborn son was born on 9/11/2001. Something so precious to me about 2001 babies ... i have so much hope for you all. ❤❤❤
Mr. Rogers was my graduation speaker. It sounded like a lame choice, but it was actually great. He spoke about his personal journey and how you will end up doing many things in life to eventually find your "calling".
And no, he wasn't a USMC sniper.
Saying you're not a USMC sniper is EXACTLY what a USMC sniper would say...
You wouldn’t know whether he was a sniper or not. Being a SAD intelligence officer/operative in the CIA is very secretive.
Only James Bond is out. Everybody else is secretive and you wouldn't know.
He was a good neighbor
Mr. Rogers to me is a far better choice then a latent narcissist like swift
Two things, one; a lot of people who receive degrees didn't work very hard to get them or even achieve much in their learning and two; Taylor Swift know more now about the music industry than most PhD professors in the industry including, instruments, song writing and orchestration, business aspects of the industry, dance and choreography, stage sound and set up, etc. Also, when you say that students have worked hard for their degree, I think Swift has probably worked harder than 90% of those who went to college (expanding on my first point). I'm no Swift fan boy but I think we should be fair.
Correct…you’re a swift fan girl 😂🥹😂
Yes, most people are forgetting this simple fact because they are so wrapped up in their insecurities and jealousy. Also, I'm realising a lot of people don't know what a honourary degree is...
I'm a fan of her and i'm going to graduate this year and I do agree with you. But yeah so many people who loves to hate her for no freaking reason definetly insecure with this. But for what? She can't even use that degree. They forgot that this campus acknowledge her for her achievements and her experience, so it does make sense. Cause at the end of the day collage don't mean success. And the students of fine art could always learn something from her. Even I as a law student could learn something from her. (especially her masters/contract issue)
Money is not the measure of a person.
I worked many 100 + hour work weeks in my life as an accountant. Always work as though you are working to please Jehovah God.
BS!
She should've watched Denzel Washington's commencement speech for reference 😎 EPIC vs. Tumbler lol
putting it on my list
Taylor’s “Inspirational Quotes Compilation” speech is middle ground when compared to the extreme alternatives. I’d rather hear a “How to be successful and also pay taxes and find a representative when on the phone with the bank/insurance companies” but over all, I’d definitely choose Taylor over some far left radical yelling in my face about how they want me to vote or why our generation needs to be “accepting and tolerant” or whatever agenda they personally support.
She has been endorsing Tennessee democrats and telling people to vote Democrat for the last 4 years
@@gearhead2319 well the Tennesee Democrata aren't as bad as California Democrats
I pay NYU tuition, I was supposed to go to this graduation, and lemme tell you, yes I think she's better than some radical leftist yelling pronouns at me, but her tumblr quotes compilation is not worth what I'd paid. 🤣
@@harmony8607 if you listen to her whole speech it's quite good
@@josh_final she endorsed kamala and biden as well. Look where the DNC stands on it's policies. I don't care who they are or what state they are in. If they're still running on a democratic ticket and not speaking out against them, they are complacent or ignorant. Neither of those reasons deserves a vote
I’m sorry, but an “honorary doctorate” doesn’t make you an actual doctor. Nice for her and everything, but I’ve been in college for a little while now, and it’s HARD. So yes, it is kind of a slap in the face to those who have worked basically nonstop to get to that point. And the fact that people will get mad if you don’t call her “Doctor Swift” is hilarious to me😂

Lies! Now let Taylor perform surgery on you!
you know if u actually watched the address, you would know she acknowledged the fact that she was only technically a doctor and if u needed help for an emergency, she wouldnt be qualified. but u didnt.
i am also not gonna say college isnt hard- because believe me it is- but she shouldnt try to discredit her and say she hasnt worked hard or been through hard times- because everyone has. so to imply she hasnt worked hard isnt fair, you dont know what she has gone thru to get to where she is now, no one knows what it is like in another person's shoes unless they walk around in them. oh and Dr. Jill Biden, worked and got her doctoral degree the "real and legitimate way" according to you, so she deserves to have that title. they fact of the matter is that you are discrediting powerful women's achievements to make you feel better- and that is not right.
You don't call her Dr. Swift with an honorary degree. It's only a "requirement" if it's actually earned.
I agree that Taylor's speech feels very "stringing together motivation quotes". However, dissing on her because she is celebrity... Wrong take sorry. Jim Carrey, Robin Williams, Matt Damon and several other Celebrities have gave extremely touching and almost legendary speeches.
So "Taylor do better" sure.. yes. But "ew celebrity" absolutely not
I agree other celebrities have given much better speeches. I think Taylor needed to put a little more effort into it, or have gotten a speech writer. It’s not like she can’t afford it.
might want to watch the full vid and re evaluate this comment
@@shaunpoland5656 Why would I need to reevaluate? What do you feel I missed?
@J B Well.. no harm in trying once. It is possible she could have done well. Now we know better lol.
Exactly
My sister recently graduated and at her graduation Dana King (??) got an honorary doctorate degree and gave a looong speech about her life or something but she talked about her journalism and this was for the college of business... felt super out of place
Journalism is crucial for business school graduates.
@@Kathakathan11 at that school it was a very small piece, the graduates were mostly accountants and statistics kinds of majors. That university isnt a good one to go to for Journalism. At my university Journalism is a completely different college-- it's a part of media and communications, not business.
@@beefcupcakes5959 oh ok
My music preference is 80s rock, but I do enjoy many genres. There are a few TS songs I do like. I share that to ground my comments. 1) So many people have received Honorary degrees. I doubt Taylor is going to update her resume because of hers. 2) As I understand it, TS writes most (if not all) of her own music. She’s clearly an accomplished writer. Doubting she needs to plagiarize wall posters.
Keep in mind Sleepy Joe has one of those degrees as well, even got paid to walk the campus. On a side note - how many college grads still have the dream that they never went to class and suddenly remember that the final is in 5 minutes.
I once mixed up the time of my final and showed up just as the test was ending. That experience haunts me to this day.
Seeing Ed's clip of "Feet smell" with that music, the flower filter on, between Brett's reading of tumbler quotes, has made me realize that I found my people. I spit out my dinner. (2 hours in the kitchen, wasted!!!)
Kudos to the editors, that was some fantastic timing. You guys owe me a lasagna.
You spit out a whole lasagna in one go?

@@Ajandtheday could just be a fast eater
All graduation speeches are the same. They should (every one of them) start with the line "Hello, and welcome to 'How profound can we be'"
Honestly they're pointless. If I were the one making speeches I would fill them with jokes and puns just so it can at least entertain people a bit.
@@kennethkho7165 And she did exactly that, as tasteful as possible, some people just don't like her humor. I thought she was humble and knew not to step out of her place, such as making a joke about only being there for "22", when people know she changed a whole industry (numerous records, even better than the Beatles), whether they like it or not.
I would love to have one of these commencement speakers lay into the grads about what a damn rough time they about to have while some others who learned a trade while they went to college will be making more than them for years, and without the loan burden.
@@kennethkho7165 Personally, I would quote the greatest of all valedictorians. "Who's the greatest valedictorian?" You might ask. Well, the greatest valedictorian of all time is, you guessed it... Frank Stallone.
I'm surprised that she didn't end the speech with "Live, Laugh, Love."
I’m convinced the whole “you lose something, but you also gain something” quite/idea came from Fullmetal Alchemist and no one will convince me otherwise! 🤣

Is that a tumblr quote?
There is nothing wrong with getting an honorary doctorate. It’s just a way to honor people who have made accomplishments that are worthy of something in an educational sense. Taylor is a songwriter who deserves to be seen as the talented writer of Fine Arts as she is. It’s not like the handed her a medical doctorate. It’s in something that she taught herself; writing. It’s a way to make someone who made unconventional success in an educational thing recognized in a professional and official sense.
@John Blackwell she writes her own music. Even if YOU don’t like her songs, she is still accomplished. I hate Micheal Jackson but that doesn’t mean his accomplishments aren’t valid. You can’t ignore her success because you’re a guy whose scared of a few catchy pop songs.
@John Blackwell you obviously know nothing about her 🙄. She’s won 11 Grammies for a reason. She started writing her own music at twelve years old. Her whole family scarficed to move to Tennessee for her career. And if anything Taylor is the classist of pop stars. Does she preform on a stripper pole like Cardi B? No. Plus she just won album of the year last year for her album she wrote about entirely fictional characters. She’s a writer first. And you clearly know nothing but tabloids and Hollywood clichés.
@John Blackwell literally has written songs about mental health, her mothers battle with cancer, grieving, the effects of war and the pandemic, and an entire song dedicated to a mother who lost her four year old to cancer. She even gave writing credits to the REAL mother. Listen to Ronan, come back, informed.
@@Alex-mm3wo which song is about the pandemic?
@@dooi722 epiphany from the folklore album
Nah I don't think it's cringe. That's one way to look at it and there is a lot of truth in the idea that the universities gain from being associated with a celebrity but at the same time, higher education is not supposed to be about "crying at night at 3am over a paper" it's about gaining greater knowledge, contributing to your field and accomplishing valuable work. From what I see, when a higher institution acknowledges someone with these great achievements it's like them recognizing that to gain these things you don't have to go through their traditional higher education route to become renowned in a field. It elevates the meaningful work done outside the school walls to something as respectable as a typical college student writing papers or going to classes.
I respect Taylor Swift for her hard work and business decisions. She knows what she wants and how to get it. However - yeah she's perhaps a bit out of touch 😆
a bit? she's in many ways, even said so herself, frozen at the age she became famous.... I've seen all of her docs and have her albums, yes she is talented. But would I ever look to her for real world advice....? Absolutely not. She lives in LaLa Land. She's gorgeous and rich and in many ways....like the vast majority of other Hollywood celebs.
Woman, she's owned by Soros. Literally sold her record label to him like two years ago.
Or barfing a Word Salad for her Woketard Fanbase is a great business decision.
@@thechanter4evermore her first couple albums were good, i think she purposely sabotages relationships to make her songs seem genuine. Anyone here see the tv show Boy Meets World? Eric meets a girl who is trying to be an artist but the record labels deem her too “perky and nice.” He decides that their relationship isn’t going to work out. She is “heartbroken and writes a song that is a “hit”. She then proceeds to bust out more. “Men are pigs and break hearts.” She then runs out of material to write about and wants to meet up with him again to get him to say stuff so she can write new songs. Taylor just “finds” new men to “break her heart” and then we get a new hit song about “men be bad.”
@@Brinton_Callahan Her last albums folklore and evermore were not about real events they were stories. So you don't have to like her or her music but I just don't think that's true. And this feels like a comment from 2012 idk but in the beginning of her career I could see why you'd say that considering she was a teenager. But now I disagree,but do think she is out of touch.
To be fair I'm a "swiftie" (I don't really like that word because I'm not like "addicted" to her like some people can be) in the sense that I regularly check if she puts out new music, I find her kind, hardworking and funny, I love listening to every single one of her albums, she's the only celebrity I "follow" on a regular basis.
However, I've never agreed with her politics, her views and ideologies (she calls herself a Christian and I'm always like "hmmm I'm not so sure about that"), and that's fine ; I don't think that should have anything to do with how much I like or dislike her music or her as a person (yeah guess I'm a "separate the person from the artist" kind of person?). It that was the case I wouldn't be friends with any of my friends. I'm friends with them for the same reason I'm a fan of Taylor Swift : I grew up with them (or, in her case, with her music).
Anyway I'm glad you covered that the way you did. It wasn't disrespectful in any way and it was accurate and funny!
Same I love her music though and it sucks.... politically I can't with her.
Looks like I've stumbled across a white politically motivated video and it's comments are all politically motivated.
I HATE this about America, everything is based off of who you support, as an outsider this is SO stupid. People who hate her rn wouldn't probably do that if she supported their political party.
This is SO weird honestly. Yt people problems.

That is what went through my head when I was listening to Taylor speak
@@kymarie20@justinerauch7168 I´m late, but truths. Here are actual inspirational speeches for students by celebrities:
→ University of Pennsylvania´s 2011 commencement address by Denzel Washington
→ Dr Shah Rukh Khan´s “Life Lessons”, recorded on 15 October 2015 at the University of Edinburgh´s New College
The way Mr Khan and Mr Washington were introduced is simple yet articulate. The way Ms Swift was introduced comes across as excessively flattering, as if no other individual on Earth, celebrity or noncelebrity, has such accomplishments and altruism.
Mr Khan and Mr Washington used their auditions/films and experiences therein as sort-of bulletpoints. But they ensured their subject matters returned to their audiences and their lives. Ms Swift´s opinions and references to her songs, on the other hand, leaned more towards me-myself-&-I.
i dont think anyone in this comment section knows what honorary doctorate means 😂
This is such a confusing comment given that Brett explains what it is within the 1st minute of the video and also the comments directly below yours illustrate that they do understand what an honorary doctorate is... am I missing something?

Honestly, I think that the honorary doctorate coupled with the speech just takes away from the recognition and celebration that should be due to the graduates.
“If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”
“One monkey don’t stop the show”
“If you’re gonna act stupid you better be tough”
“If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance baffle them with bullshit”
There, you’re all set, go get em tiger
😂 Yup!
I was a swifty for years. I left when she became a bleeding heart lib in 2018 when she started advocating against Marsha Blackburn for the Tennessee senate race. I can tell you that she most certainly was very addicted to Tumblr for a long time
Me too
Same
Same same
I used to respect her so much for staying apolitical, that was one reason , other than her being so talented, that I was an OG swiftie
I was dissappointed in her efor getting political
What is Tumblr ?
I agree. They should do away with “honorary degrees” and the whole bogus dressing up in gowns. They can be invited to be a speech but don’t dress up like graduates.
I agree the honorary degrees are dumb it feels like they are ripping off the people who actually got their degree
if it seems bogus or impractical or unnecessary, but they do it anyway, it's probably symbolic.
Well they had to give Bill Cosby's Honorary Degree to somebody after they cancelled it, so they chose someone who they felt pretty sure hadn't drugged anyone senseless with Quaaludes then raped them lol
"I'm a tad worried I'm going to trigger some people..."
My sweet summer child, *anything* you say or not say will trigger some people.
funny how this video got you another subscriber who is also a hardcore swiftie. the ep was so good, one hundred percent hilarious and you were so on point
This can’t be the same women who wrote “Back to December “ , “ exile”, “Blank Space” , “Style”
😭😭.
Honestly, if I’m waiting on the commencement speech to learn how the world works, then my degree is useless. I had some CEO as my speaker and I don’t remember a thing about what they said. All these people are going to remember is that Taylor Swift spoke at their graduation. And that was pretty neat.
Taylor Swift forgot to say "hang in there" while grabbing a rope, "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take." And "Life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you're going to get."
Taylor Nation isn’t her fan base, it’s her company. Lol.
Lol as the Taylor Swift fan I am I can confirm the veracity of this video. She is a true tumblr girl. You are really on point with your comments
Had me on the Godzilla scene 🤣 just subscribed! Don't worry about what anyone thinks or feels your doing a awesome job!
As a professor, and someone with a Masters degree...Taylor's speech just sounded like a google search of "Positive one liners".
I've never understood honorary doctorates. I left school when I was very young and would feel embarrassed to have something like this that I hadn't actually earnt. As for her speech, I thought it was lame and shallow.
One of my professors had an honorary doctorate. But for him it made sense. He had a PhD in physics but taught chemistry for 40 years, so they gave him an honorary doctorate in chemistry.
I've always thought the idea of honorary doctorates is to honor the achievements of someone who did great work in a field outside of the academic sphere. Like an airplane designer who spent decades designing, building, and testing planes on their own but never studied at a university would get an honorary degree as a result of their contributions to the field of aeronautical design.
I feel the same way about this. I got my doctorate last year and it’s just like uhhhhh sorry but you can’t just be famous and bypass all that hard work and expense. Plus you grow and learn so much in your doctorate. I’ve been working in my field for decades but I still learned and grew during my doctorate. If she was my commencement speaker I would have been annoyed. And I love Taylor Swift’s music. Some of her albums are my absolute fav. But a doctor she is not.
@@mimimcgee5512 Having a doctorate shouldn’t you know that having a honorary doctorate isn’t at all equal to having an actual doctorate? It’s just a title and can’t really be used. She earned it for her contribution to music in which she has put more than 15 years of hard work and effort. Not to mention putting up with the bullshit the world has thrown at her. So yeah I think she deserved it.
@@nombreapellidos1966 obviously I know that it’s not worth the same and it’s just a title that she was given. That’s the whole point of this post.
*She was no Denzel Washington that's for sure.* At least when he gave his speech it was both simple and brilliant. Swift was meh…
I literally came to comment this! Denzel was the best.
Well I like her speech. She didn't make it like she was trying too hard and her self deprecating humor is my thing.
You should really watch the entire speech - these are the cut out of context ‘conclusions’. She did well
It always needs to be said! Your so good at saying what needs to said and I’m glad you overcome the nerves to do so!
you gotta love the daily drama scoop from Brett!

I mean, it was stated by NYU that they gave her a degree based on her contribution to the field of fine arts. It's like when one is given a reward for saving people in some countries. There are those countries where the police/military will give merits or money to those who saved people or contributed on a mission. Or when philanthropists are given rewards. Or even those who are given the nobel piece prize. So I think it's fair that she got it🤷♀️ she's been fighting for artists' rights and paving the way for some artists for years now. Even her re-recording is making a contribution to the music industry.
You're blowing up, been watching since your first video and the amount of subs you've gotten so quick is insane
subscribed for the Godzilla x Jet Jaguar clip. ty so much editors!!!
Transitions so smooth 😎
She got an honorary doctorate in fine arts and she is the biggest singer-songwriter since she debuted and very acclaimed for her age.I don't see the problem,it's very well deserved.And cliping a 25 minute speech while taking out the part where she said that she won't tell college graduates what to do in their careers because her path was very different(singing in coffee shops untill an indie label took her),is very disingenuous.Talking about her personal experiences and trying to give advice is the best any artist can do really.There is no clear cut way to make it like her.That's why you used to see a lot of paris hiltons and the likes getting into music and failing miserably,and with all the financial backing you can get.
Edit:nobody would remember a boring CEO speech because most come from extreme privilege with so much backing,their only job is not screwing up.Not saying Taylor came from poverty(her dad was upper middle class),but those grads will remember her.
Taylor Swift sucks she supports marxism. Swift and senator Blackburn got into. Blackburn burned her. Swift is so stupid she thinks she would be an elite in a marxist world. Nope in a marxist world woman are at the bottom. Taylor Swift is not smart. If she does any doctor stuff she is going to kill those patients.
👏🏻
The girl with the Tumblr quotes, changed a whole music industry, wrote her own songs and made millions from it. Did she deserved to give speech instead of a CEO? Yeah I think she did. Most CEO got paid for running somebody else's company. Taylor did her own thing. But I agree she could have give a more useful speech for the graduates tho 😅
Omg, I love that you used that clip from Godzilla vs Megalon😂
Really amazing how fast this channel has pretty much become my favorite. Brett really is great.
I would argue someone who showed they were capable of receiving the diploma should be able to recognize them with an honorable degree. Someone who made a cure/medicine in their garage for example
Just wanna say props for adding "This Is Me Trying" @3:50 Idk if it was the editor's choice or yours, but either way, amazing song
1:38 jet jaguar and Godzilla had me dying.
Had to come back and edit this commit because master shake at 6:58. God Damn your memes go hard!
Entertaining videos keep at it.
There are literally so many wildly intelligent people who have done all kinds of important humanitarian work and they went with Taylor Swift? Seriously? Were all the people who cure cancer busy?
did you know taylor swift has donated millions of dollars to flood and tornado victims, along with is an advocate for women's rights and protection, & LGBT rights ? i highly doubt you did. you are judging a situation before you know the whole story.
oh and you think that there is a cure for cancer ? i will go and tell my mom who has Metastatic Stage 4 Breast cancer who has had cancer since 2017 that.
It’s an honorary doctorate degree in fine arts. Calm down Colleen
Those who cure cancer? They are all dead from suicide with two gunshots behind the head
@@mf1323_ oh no, is baby swiftie mad? Lol grow up. Donating money does not make you as or more qualified to speak at a college than an actual doctor would be. Literally anyone with a decent amount of extra cash can do that. They could've done better than her and you know it. And Colleen said "people who cure(verb) cancer", not "there is a cure(noun) for cancer". There is a difference.
Coleen, people who cure cancer would get an honorary doctor degree from the faculty of medicine not the faculty of fine arts. SMH just because you are bitter you lack achievements in all possible fields doesn't mean an artist who heavily impacted her industry doesn't deserve an award ( because that is what a honorary doctor paper is) celebrating her achievements in that industry.
She didn't earn it. She didn't put the work. Hey I wrote a song, can I get an honorary Grammy
While I understand the concern, Taylor swift, while in a unique way, had acquired far more knowledge and expertise in fine arts than most people with a traditional 4 year degree.
That speech was truly awful. It is a great example why I have skipped my graduations for: middle school, high school, bachelor's, master's, PhD, and Law school. I don't think I have anywhere else I could graduate from other than medical school, so thankfully I don't have to avoid any others.
So many celebrities who have received honorary doctorates but when it comes to Taylor, people just see it different and discredit her talent, effort, hard working through 15 years of her career lol if she was a man, there would be no discussion 😒 the people who don't know her music at all are judging which is hilarious, just stop crying for "the real doctors", it's just an honorary doctorate - like an award for Taylor's impact and dedication to the music industry
I was shocked they're making a big deal out of this since a lot of artists got this HD before her. Like what...
@Todd Graham a lot of them haven't studied anything about the majors that they received the doctorates, what they studied in college has nothing to do with art, and there are celebrities who's never gone to college who's been given an honorary doctorates, google is free lol
@Todd Graham and what is the problem about not going to college to pursuit your passion and then being successful with it, you're just jealous and bitter
@Todd Graham then count how many paper doctors can do and have the impact that she does, at that young age, just admit that you hate to see her being successful
FRR
Loved the use of the godzilla clip of him shaking hands with jet jaguar 🤣
You’re lucky they even offered to have a graduation. Mine was canceled. Slightly devastating given that I’m a 30-year-old high school drop out, first generation graduate, wife and mother who graduated summa cum laude…
That sucks. Why was it canceled?
@@AbcAbc-sp1od lol because I graduated in May 2020…
@@alice_in_wonderland_102 Ahhh damn that sucks, sorry
The real college experience is drinking a beer at 630am on a Tuesday morning so you can remove the hangover before a class.
As a person who is going through college right now, spending God knows how much money, educational titles are a privilege earned by hard work and perseverance in that field. I get she is famous and has a bunch of decent songs, but education is so much more than basic melodies and making sob stories. Also she said effortlessness doesn’t exist but she got that doctorate pretty effortlessly if you ask me.
No.
How was it effortless? If she didn’t put in any effort she wouldn’t have the career she has today. And let me remind you that she got this recognition at nyu BECAUSE of her contribution to music. And nothing anyone says will take that away.
I personally believe that honorary doctorates are a good thing if you are giving them to the right person. My school, Montana State, gave out an honorary doctorate to a judge on a circuit of appeals (don’t quote me on that). He wrote a lot of case law and was very influential. I mentioned him because he was a bit of an unsung hero and didn’t get a lot of the recognition he deserved. I feel like that is what honorary doctorates should be for.
There's nothing stopping her from getting a degree. If she wants one, it's a solvable problem. But she chose her lane and got millions of dollars. It's not like students get to be honorary millionaires.
@Kara Khraw I hope you also say that about each and every other artist that writes tons break up songs. If not then find a better argument.
Personal struggles as reference for motivational speech seems to work well for these kinds of events. I had seen the speech of peter dinklage to a same event like these and I watch that from start to finish. Its really good. All the good, the bad and the success he achieved in the end.
It's even funnier because she's getting an honorable doctorate in fine arts, which would include creative writing, while simultaneously actually being in the country songwriters hall of fame and her speech is god awful.
As a swiftie I would love Taylor to speak at my graduation, but you make great points. If it were anyone else I probably would feel different. it’s Taylor though so I automatically like it.
Lmao same. I just can't help but love Taylor 😭. I ❤️ Taylor Swift
Haha other people also say swifter? nice
Okay swifter
Wow, I never knew words could be so meaningless.
Que Mala must have written her speech.
This was my first episode. I hit subscribe and the little bell next to it 😂
I too went through a cringe stage of both Tumblr and sad instagram quotes 😂😂😂
I'm a Swiftie who's also a college graduate. As much as i love her, yep her speeches ARE cringe ngl. It could be her delivery, i think she is used to performing on stage, sometimes with narration in between songs thus the dramatic tone she has. But she gives a lot of good advice tho. She knows her experiences are probably not as relatable for most of the graduates there, so she gives life hacks instead. She can't really be specific because everyone lives different lives. I like what she said about not being afraid of being cringe because you'd cringe anyways looking back. And something about not looking at your bully getting a job at his uncle's company, because you live your own life.
Just realized brett is a mix of Alex Cooper and Ben Shapiro

There should be someone like the Seal Commander from the Navy. I am retired military and that speech (even from a swabbie) has been an inspiration for me during times that I need to refocus.
NYU: "Taylor Swift, we present you with this honorary doctorate!"☝️
NYU student: "oh Taylor, did you go to this college too?"😊
Taylor Swift: " No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night."☝️
NYU student: 😧
Congratulations - you win the interwebs for the day - hilarious!!! 👍🏻😂👏🏻
Cringe
OH, If that's how an NYU student react then GOD bless them, knowing how really fucking stupid they are, how come you graduated/studied from NYU, yet you didn't even know the definition of an honorary degree 😩😩😩
She clearly said that she won't give unsolicited advice to them instead she just gave them few life hacks that she learnt growing up. If she did gave advice i bet 100% people like you still criticize her for it
Whoa swiftie 😂
" i don't meant to be mean about it I'm just laughing" this is the worst you can ever say After criticizing something
Tumblr and Glee ruined an entire generation, change my mind.
Tim Tebow spoke at my wife's graduation at Liberty University last year. Great speech. Had to watch it virtually but it was still a great speech.
**incoming atheist liberals to make this reply section horrible**
Taylor Swift was give her honorary degree in musical artistry. A subject I would be willing to believe she has put the "leg work" into. Considering that if Taylor had written a book on the topic it would almost certainty be on the reading list for that doctorate program, I'm not bothered.
TLDR: Is it a publicity stunt? Yes.
Does she deserve the degree? Yes.
Finally someone with common sense.
‘Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to’😂😂
My favorite channel!! LOVE YOU, BRETT COOPER!!!!
our keynote speaker talked about himself for 30 minutes and addressed the graduates maybe twice. but that's different than the type of speech Taylor was supposed to give. I love her an I'm proud of her, but I could not stand this speech. she could've done so much better.
if I was graduating with her, I would've been annoyed.
I'm glad that all these celebrities are coming out and proving by themselves how the idolisation they receive is undeserved. Actors and Singers have one talent they are good at and admiring them for that particular skill is understandable because they have proved they are adept at that skill, well most of them have, but that doesn't mean that they are great at everything else and are morally just because they can sing a great pop song or put out an awesome movie.
There are some exceptions but more and more you see these people exhibit their cluelessness and entitlement as they are called upon to do something that is way out of their wheelhouse. Maybe just stick to singing, Taylor?
Could we maybe just not use Taylor as an example to generalize all celebrities ? While I know celeb worship is toxic, so is their dehumanization (in terms of their character,emotions and abilities, not marialistic things of course) as many view them as being completely different mentally from the average person. A lot of celebs have had your "normal life" (multiple shitty jobs,went to college, dealt with hardships, and some have experienced poverty or worse circumstances than the average person etc). People don't realize that getting into the entertainment industry whithout connections (not Taylor's case, her father owns a label) is much more risky than more conventional paths and guarantees hardship in some ways ( you hear a lot about actors or singers that have had to live in their car, or engage in very questionable or dangerous activities for a while to sustain themselves before making it. These experiences make for valuable life lessons that are universal). Many celebs are also multifaceted as they are great businesspeople (especially musicians I noticed) or humanitarians on top of their craft. I think this view of most of them being out of touch and clueless in other fields is a bit of stretch. (Many are though). The public sometimes treat celebs like they only exist when they're on camera. As soon as they're out of the frame, they stop existing. There's also this tendency to only focus on their worst qualities and generalize that to all celebs.
Edit: By on camera, I mean that we don't see them as humans who's entire personality,character and abilities isn't limited to what you see on a screen.
I'd say actors are the least talented out of the two. Singers - actual respected signers - at least need some legit talent at what they do; actors have agents, publicists, film critics and multiple takes in every scene to make them look much better than they actually are. Add in fashion shoots to make them appear as model versus actual models. Actors are treated as brands (hence why they get several sponsors in beauty and luxury brands). When it comes to singers, people who listen will at least call out auto-tune and mediocre signing. For example no one really respects Brittney Spears as a singer; she's more of an entertainer whereas Christian Aguilera actually has legit singing chops.
@@angelaortega1495 I can tell there are so many Swiftie/celeb fans who dropped by on this video. Good grief.
@@angelaortega1495 "The public sometimes treat celebs like they only exist when they're on camera. "
Because that's the truth. Why should us normal people not be critical of celebs? You yourself mentioned the celeb worship yet you imply we should also think about them once they're off camera - and in a positive way. Um, no. We got lives. We got repsonsibilities. We got families. We got hobbies that don't include acknowledging how wonderful and supposedly talented celebs are.
@@TickleMeElmo55 I think you misunderstood or misinterepreted that statement. But I should have worded it much better, that's my fault. Of course I didn't mean we should think of them when they're not camera (that wouldn't make sense lol) I meant that we only treat them as entertainers and not human beings with emotions and flaws just like everyone else when judge them. The level of scrutiny we subject them to and the standards of moral or behavioral perfection we impose on them is dehumanizing. It's not fair (just because they are successful doesn't warrant that) they don't sign a contract stating that they must be exemplary people in all aspects of life for all of humanity. If people think they are, that's the people's problem. We are much less lenient with them when they have flaws, then we are with non famous people. Yes the public doesn't have to think about them, but that's the thing a lot of people do, but only in negative terms. Their human flaws are often magnified and define their character, while their positive traits or significant contributions are ignored and minimized. Will smith was been more defined by the 'slap" than all the positive things (especially a lot charity work) he has done in the past 30+ years.
STOP YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO ADDICTINGG. Your channel marketing and content is just sooo adicting. Literaly the video titles, the thumbnails, and the commentary is just soo good. I find myself being soo influenced by your opinions, idk what you do but goddamn. I have not seen a channel with a different persepctive on controversial things in a while now. Many time I just thought maybe my way of thinking was just old or not it, due to you know all the media and leftists. I swear now a days you can't say anything without being attaked by extreme leftists. Im not saying I agree 100% with everysingle thing you say, but many things you mention on your videos i resonate with. Honestly you give a different perspective to people and I like that. So congrats girl
OMG! That obscure Godzilla v. Megalon reference was just mmmm *chef's kiss*! I thought I was the only one in America who watched those movies. I love this channel even more now!
