Anyone graduating this year — whether it was from high school, college, grad school, or even kindergarten — was invited to join the virtual ceremony and celebration. Krasinski, in his usual style, rounded up some celebrity guests to serve as commencement speakers, including Jon Stewart, Malala Yousafzai, Steven Spielberg, and Oprah Winfrey.
“There have been several times in my life, Amanda, when things didn’t go the way I wanted,” Oprah told one graduate on Krasinski’s call, before telling the now well-known story of how she was fired from her first job long before she landed her famous talk show. “I believe that failure is an opportunity to move yourself in a different direction. It gets better because you learn the lessons from the first time,” she said.
During these times, week after week, Krasinski seems to know exactly what we need to see and hear to keep going — and keep smiling. His send-off for grads during this crazy time was perfect, and we can’t wait to tune into the show again next week.
