The prolific pop singer, Taylor Swift, who famously sang about “feeling 22, is celebrating it a decade later, as she received an honorary doctorate of fine arts from New York University, and also delivered this year’s commencement speech at Yankee Stadium.
Despite not receiving a four-year college experience, Swift used her almost 20-minute speech to give the recent graduates “life hacks” on navigating post-graduate and early career life, including “life can be heavy,” to “learn to live alongside cringe.”
Swift was first announced as the commencement speaker for NYU back in March to mass excitement from fans of the 11-time Grammy winner, as some even tried to buy tickets to the ceremony from graduating students.
