That's how her comedy has always been. If you watch any of her standup specials they are hilarious, but also always have some sort of serious and often emotional points to them. It's really quite impressive how she can balance both so well and no matter how off topic she seems to get it all serves a greater narrative purpose in the end.
1. to live your life with integrity 2. not to give in to peer pressure to be something that you're not 3. to live your life as an honest and compassionate person 4. to contribute in someway 5. follow your passion 6. never follow someone else path 7. be true to yourself 8. show people your brain 9. you're gonna be okay
how ellen remembered it all without looking at papers and just went sensationally through the whole things with seriousness including necessary humor!! the song is now stuck in my head
Amazing, so many great quotes hahah! "Most of the books in the house are portia’s and they’re all written in Australian". "I didn’t go to college! Any college! and i'm not saying you're wasting your time or money but look at me! I'm a huge celebrity!!" "When i grow up i wanna be famous, i wanna be a star, i wanna be in movies, when i grow up...." "If you don’t remember a thing I said today, remember this, you’re gonna be ok, dadadodoom, Just Dance(8)!"
Dear Ellen, Thank you. Thank You just for being on this planet. You perhaps don't know your impact on me as well as the lives of millions of children out there. You are the most important, inspiring person in my life. There comes a point in everyone's life when they feel that all is lost, that this is the end and that they cannot do anything to change that. And at that point, there also comes a person who, knowingly or unknowingly, inspires and makes him/her believe in himself/herself and gives hope that today is not the end, that tomorrow will be better. You are that person Ellen. And thanks for being here and helping us recover from our trauma. In case you ever read this, please know that you are my Idol, you are the kind of person I would like to become. Thank you.
The speech includes so many stylistic devices, but I couldn't pay attention to them, because it was just too inspirational and sad but also unbelievably funny and... best speech I ever heard.
She is amazing! They sure had the best graduation ceremony and present! If I were them, It would be the best day in my life ! Let me dream that she would appear in my graduation too ! Love you!:) :) :)
Amazing and inspirational political, business, or academic figures are one thing, but having Ellen as your common cement speaker is clearly the pinnacle of success.
I'm 46 yo male and I never cry. However when she told her story , I teared and got very emotional . I know the up, and then it is taken all away and you feel dark and worthless . Then it comes around somehow. I appreciated this speech
This the most beautiful thing i ever saw,what a woman wow.GOD BLESS YOU ELLEN,YOU ARE SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO THE ENTIRE WORLD,THIS IS MY FIRST TIME LOOKING AT THIS AND I'AM BLOWH AWAY,IN 2018 BY THE WAY.ITS NO WONDER PEOPLE LOVE YOU SO MUCH,I KNOW I DO.FROM THEN TO PRESENT,,YOU KNOCK'EM DEAD ELLEN WOW
The most important is to be true to yourself. Live your life with integrity and not to be given pressure to try something that you are not.. To live your life as honest and compassionate person, to contribute in some way...
I love you Ellen, thank you for everything you have ever done to get where you are! I couldn’t imagine this world without you in it (meaning, I’m glad you became famous so I could get to know you)
Hi Ellen, I've just seen this video of your speech and I'm a highschool graduate going into college and I just wanted to say what a joy you are! I'm from Fiji and my family and I moved to the United Arab Emirates and we've been here for almost 10yrs and I'm slowly embarking on a new journey and one of my dreams is to meet you just so I can tick it off my bucket list of meeting inspiring people! Thank you for everything you do!!! 🌺 Much love from UAE & Fiji 🇦🇪🇫🇯
Everytime I watch your videos I turn to feel greater and greater. You are a living legend Ellen. Being true to yourself and being yourself is the most important factor to have. Thank you.

Love your msg, love your jokes, love how the Dean is laughing and loving your jokes. and of course! The finish with the dance? Only you, Ellen! Smashin'! 💜
Brilliant!! I just LOVE Ellen. She is more than a comedian. She is a humanitarian bringing so much love, peace, and harmony into this world. So grateful for her.
"I'm not saying that you wasted your time or money but look at me i'm a huge celebrity." LMAO

I'm not laughing at her jokes, I'm laughing at the way the old guy behind her is laughing
Alavi Steam ok..-_-
Too true.
Alavi steam you are very right...actually u stole my words...I was also laughing more while watching the way he was giggling or kinda laughing...
Looks like he is the Head Guy
@@raymondwingliu7472 yes he is...and watching him laugh makes me feel that laughing is not banned at college or uni...😂😂😂
"I was dating men, so what I'm saying when you're my age most of you will be gay" - Ellen

Helped me with my project
10. Don't take advise from anyone.
Hahaha Ellen "Dont listen to anyone's advice,. Now my advice is..."
"Dont listen to anyone's advice,. Now my advice is..." lol
Just dance
This is the best common-cement speech. Love you Ellen ♥️
how ellen remembered it all without looking at papers and just went sensationally through the whole things with seriousness including necessary humor!! the song is now stuck in my head
fu furious she was stand up comedian and they never look at papers and they can do shows for an hour
Teleprompter
it wasn't her scientific findings that she had to read out from the papers it was her life.
She is special.
And I guess it is a gift and also a hard work.
Same thing for me
The guy on the left is awesome.
that's the president of that University
"I know that I'll always be okay because I know who I am."
💙💖💜
Indeed
Love this!!
She is exceptionally extraordinary peerless human being.
Amazing, so many great quotes hahah!
