NEWSFLASH
Taylor Swift was really feeling 22 at Yankee Stadium when she delivered the commencement address to New York University’s Class of 2022, where she also received an honorary doctor of fine arts degree.
In her speech, Swift expressed gratitude to the “patchwork quilt of those who have loved us, those who have believed in our futures,” including her own family for their support and sacrifices over the years.
Despite recognising that she is in no way “qualified to tell you what to do,” the music superstar went on to offer the crowd various “life hacks,” including some lessons from her ups and downs in the music industry.
“Learn to live alongside cringe. No matter how hard you try to avoid being cringe, you will look back on your life and cringe retrospectively. Cringe is unavoidable over a lifetime. Even the term ‘cringe’ might someday be deemed ‘cringe.’”
Swift concluded her speech by offering some final words of encouragement, while also joking about her honorary doctorate.
“We are led by our gut instincts, our intuition, our desires and fears, our scars and our dreams. And you will screw it up sometimes. So will I,” she said. “And when I do, you will most likely read about it on the internet.”
“As long as we are fortunate enough to be breathing, we will breathe in, breathe through, breathe deep, breathe out. And I’m a doctor now, so I know how breathing works.”
Yumna Zaidi, a Pakistani actress, is scheduled to star in her first international production ‘Crestar and the Knight Stallion,’ a web series based on an Arabic superhero and his best buddy.
The film is helmed by American filmmaker Ajmal Zaheer Ahmad.
The description under the newly released trailer of the web series read, “Crestar and the Knight Stallion may be the only two superheroes out there that battle the forces of evil while still having to deal with curfews, immigrant values, and arranged marriages.”
Makers are yet to decide on the streaming portal to release the series.
