When comedienne and “Saturday Night Live” alum opened her recent commencement address at Tulane University with the following, the audience knew that they were in for quite a ride.
“Look at all these beautiful faces … and iPhones,” she said before beginning her address. “Families and friends of graduates, mothers, fathers, brothers, brothers from other mothers, sisters, roommates, grandmas and grandpas, meemaws and papaws … and people who met on Tinder this morning, I thank you for having me here to join you on this special day in this incredible city. I stand here humbled, gracious and completely naked under this robe.”
The crowd went wild as Rudolph treated them with an Oprah impression and a parody of the national anthem. Watch a clip of the address below.
