Jodie Foster quoting Eminem

[RevKnightHunter]

did she have to redo it because it sounded like she she stopped mid sentence the first time?

[arethnaar45]

@ThePeterKrpan prominent* misogynist*

[cykovisuals]

I watched it and I regreddit.

[TheJb1rd]

@ThePeterKrpan mysogynist?

[Roadsters666]

Cringed so hard, i let it go...

[foxh8er]

That was....the horribly...horribly painful. 

[MrSlingdad]

WTF D:

[bigtruckseriesreview]

Quoting Eminem at a graduation is like quoting Karl Marx at a Corporate dinner. 

[Rickjames173]

wikipedia brought my here

[Pooky1991]

LOL

[UniversalMinded]

@shibbyzz LOL ya'll leave some funny comments on here

[OilofPuppies969]

[tammyd963]

[BuddyCP]

GAHAHAHAHAHA

[EMABrad]

WHAT?! I LIKE JODIE FOSTER!

[zipjok]

i could only watch 4 seconds

as bad as 2girls1cup

[HarlequinIchthyosis]

she look so fat

[BRAeminem]

love her movie contact

[hannibalcannibalx]

This is cool and a further credit to her personality. i just wish people would stop going on about her being lesbian. Anyone really care? . She's an incredible actress. I think she could have salvaged "Hannibal" had she played Clarice again.

[aruwin25]

@hannibalcannibalx i dont think she's lesbian

[lovingannabellee]

@aruwin25 i think se is! but who cares, she is still sexy haha

[FreedomGotAnAK]

the queen of getting "almost raped" has now "almost rapped".

[A550RGY]

"Do not miss your chance to... munch carpet after being warped by sexualized movie roles at a young age."

[NielDaRebelde]

Lose Yourself is an awesome song,but this is painful

[BeefPepsi]

So... is this about graduating college or becoming a late-in-life lesbian?

[flipperISdead]

It take a fuck of a lot for me to get so embarrassed for some1 that I cant even think about it again..this is one of those times

[jimmybrite]

She's an embarrassment to all Dykes out there.

[meanwiddlekid]

@jimmybrite

.... if such a thing is possible.

[Solitude102]

Oh my god.. the world is truly ending.

[juliMathers]

hahahah

Love Eminem and this video too!

[stansskk]

EM rules

[kjshi7]

Jodie, the Queen of Rape Movies, is also the Queen of Fail. At least I got a good laugh out of it.

[Mrster]

I paused after 2 seconds.

[Deosarian]

@Mrster This made me cringe more than the 2 girls and 1 cup vid.

[imyours1986]

funny

but i prefer the original one

:-))

[EricRSmyth]

word

[miller45103]

haha thats great. to bad she couldn't figure a better way to end it lol

[ajvox]

i just love eminem and jodie...this video rocks!!!

[reaperinc13]

oh dear god...

[arrestedeveloper]

Dr. Lecter...Dr. Lecter.....I have something to tell you...

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment. You own it. You better never let it go.

[Cunnysmythe]

I couldn't look, it was too embarassing. I wish I hadn't heard any of it.

[lionlove1986]

LOL

[hualll]

This is ...a pain

[LazerChachi]

This is the one video I can remember watching where I let out a clearly audible "Ohhhhh" of exasperation.

[horsesflu]

this is so embarrassing. this is my second time watching. the first time i had to stop, as i felt the unease of the audience. this second time im cringing like crazy, but was able (just now) to get through this epic shit storm of douchebaggery

[samisyosam]

Oh lordy this was painful to watch.

[fireplug111]

Another example of how out of touch and absorbed every last celebrity is. The industry is over

[hgUKzgw]

she forgot some words :D

[dogeymon83]

HAHAHAHA she's such a liberal head full of air!!

[fakedick]

You're dumb.

[black2much]

I still find her hot @ 46

[TheUnKonformist]

HOLY SHIT

[ajvox]

JEEZ

LOVE IT

CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT

[Sesquipedaliantique]

Damn, I usedta love Jodie Foster but this is cringeworthy.

[yohaneuano4]

Well, this blowed, and I guess she took her chance. The message, guys.

[SteelCitiesFinest]

That was kind of embarrasing, I think she thought by quoting Eminem she was being hip. Lol.

[Ilovehoghunting]

or you haha

[peppergirlrocks]

hark, i would be grateful man if some1 do that at my graduation. I don't care if those were Eminem lyrics or whatever. i think his cool and there is diffinately a meaning to that song of his. dis is my opinion btw

[algardaus]

lol

[whatevarrr]

lmfao, how embarassing

[lolo1990uk]

hahahahahaha CRINGE!!!!!! If she was my mother i would disown her....

[OrdoMallius]

Ahaahahhahahhaa I am pissing my self aHaahhaaAHAHAAHAAAaaa!!!

[Giulianeo]

I just lol, the message gets delivered atleast...

[ikixo]

AWW. True, it was a little embarrassing, but she did it! I agree, maybe she should have spoken it more as an inspirational speech - it would have retained the meaning, conveyed the humor, and not been so.. yeah, facepalm-worthy. :x Oh, what the hell, I love Jodie. <3 What a great actress, she's awesome.

[MissClariceStarling]

She's awesome.

[ally20sey]

OH THE HORROR

[ocdeuce22]

would have been funnier if she was serious and read it inspirational, instead of trying to sing/rap or whatever that was:)

[LordVespertine]

Oh, Jodie...

*Facepalm*

[f0xb0y14]

she completely ruined it. she embarresed the shit outta her self with that bull shit.

[JodieFosterForever]

She's too cool.

[Sarahaintbovvered]

I think shes just trying to make a point that you only have one shot at things . .

[Uncreative566]

Arg its painful

[tofurkey0]

why...why the fuck would she do this?

really.

this is so fucking embarrassing.

[Jens14]

yeah she raped it =(

[letterboy90]

@tofurkey0 fuck you bet me to that comment i was thinking the sme thing

[downwithutube]

Gee willikers that sucked!

[tomelifeisjustonebig]

Fucking LAME!

[jcool411]

LOL wtf was she thinking i would be so pist if she did this at my graduation.

[KalikaInLeather]

well, I'd be happy just to have her at my graduation, since i'm in drama... xD would be kinda a good sign :p

and be gentle on the lady, she's an actress, not a singer - it's actually nice to see how hard she wants to connect with her young(er) audience and so she chose a rap song xp it's funny and daring - requires some guts; could you all who criticize this badly have the courage to go and do sth like that?

(and I get to the point where I dont know y I write so much since I care so lil... ??)

[whatevarrr]

LMFAO

[Exhuman]

...I used to think that Tiger Woods was white.

[FacetiousPrick]

This is so cringeworthy...

[AdArmand]

The lambs are screaming.

[Supaduck0]

if that guy who wanted to kill the president to impress jodie foster heard this, i think he'd be feeling very silly right now.

[BlackNoir]

I can't watch this without feeling SO embarrassed for her.

[Sohbek]

Just watching this makes me feel embarassed.

[Juggal0Julz]

What a embarrassing display of whiteness, reminds me of listening to Stuart Scott on ESPN.

[akuljah]

I think I just compressed one of my upper vertebrae.

[YamashitaTsubasa]

This.

[jimmyhayers]

shudder

[snub321]

i literally could not bring myself to watch the whole thing from beginning to end.

[kjg28]

I suggest watching the whole speech before you criticize her. It was interesting, moving, thought provoking, socially conscious, and one of the best graduation speeches I've ever heard.

[aznsisco]

I want to wring her neck slowly.

[AnonymousWillDestroy]

Death: I wish it upon Jodie Foster.

[khattamshud]

niggers

[MrJentipede]

I want to die.

[NeoNinja7]

I would have been so embarrassed sitting there.

[strobe222]

it takes a lesbo to be empowered by a movie and a song about the situation of the character of the movie...

[jackievongrimm]

anahahahahhaha ohh shitttttttt

[Spetetescion]

sexy woman

[fragboy]

She is totally gay man

[chabos4]

disturbing

[doxirox]

she was making a point dumd ass!

[lellaRKP]

hahahahhahahhaha weird

[mysticvintage]

hahaha she sings like she is in church! cool vid ;d

[nicoleevans90]

HAHA Legend!!! xx

[jindark2]

weird.....haha

[concertvideosgreg]

haha that was weird :P

[jodiefosterfan62]

haha! Jodie rox!

[cheesetoochalk]

You know what I like the fact that she's geeky, perfect for the movie Contact and she's just like Lisa Randall.

[dogeymon83]

Wow, she is the biggest head full of mush I've ever heard! LOL!!

[casfetes]

fuck me what a joke

[ispeaktroll]

HAHA. Ohhh man, she's awesome.

[shamoni8]

lol cos opportunity comes once in a lifetime YO

[fizzlybambabe]

rubish

[hdlover23]

i love jodie. she's so intelligent. she doesn't just look intelligent. she is. boy wouldn't it be great if i had her as my english teacher after all she did graduate from Yale as magna cum laude with a B.A. in literature

[ZeldaRinku]

Me to but as french teacher too.

[mariagcavallo]

that would be sooo awesome!

[dyl1992]

ummm, she is a lezbo, and she graduated magna cum laude cuz she is a celebrity, get it right!

[mariagcavallo]

No, she graduated magna cum laude because she is smart. Yale doesn't cut slack for celebrities. And who cares about ehr sexual orientation? She's great and that's that. So, get it right!

[hdlover23]

ahh no...get it right dumb ass she's smart she wasn't magna cum laude because she is a celebrity. she is a magna cum laude because she's smart.idiot.

[mattblack77nz]

Oh dear, someone needs a hug...

[tugboatMOLLY]

ahahhah

fuck that

jodie foster rocks man!!! she graduated magna cum laude bcause shes smarttt!!!!

she really is read her interviews and stufff

[stiggsmonharty5150]

jack black quoted these lines

[Smokinblunts]

I died a little inside. She should just shot us her tits and gtfo.

[byemissamericanpie]

Why are you so against this for God's sake? Have some sense of humour already!

[gnamp]

cringey

[misett]

i wish the whole speech was shown here, but this is just a few seconds video from the 20-minutes speech that she gave during the commencement.

[bearmare]

yeah know, she really does sound like a gym teacher. But she can't rap.

[mfyyre]

Erm. This video sucks.

[theofrastvs]

reading some of the comments here - stupid, bigoted, ignorant claptrap - makes me wonder why natural selection allows stupid people to breed. Foster is genius, an artist. No wonder she keeps to herself, since the mindless American consumer is so belligerent in their vacuous disrespect of a great talent. Pearls before swine.

[stuckwithelves]

sorry that was a reply to choctawcreek.

[ChoctawCreek]

It's disappointing to see such a classy and intelligent woman quote something from an immature, untalented piece of you-know-what like Eminem. I realize she was trying to motivate the graduates by lowering herself to their level, but how are they gonna learn if you don't teach them that people like Eminem are scum?

[stuckwithelves]

you shouldn't judge a person as a whole based on their image from the media. he had a good point in that song, and just because you don't like him or agree with some of his views doesn't mean you should excuse what he has to say. she never says she's promoting eminem- she's promoting his message that in many situations in life, you only have that one chance that you have to take or lose.

[valentine00002]

thanks you just made a very good point that i would have made,what CHOCTAWCREEK said was plain stupid....she may or may not be smarter than eminem but he has sent a message to be understood by all that even talented people like jodie obviously grasped.

[MrHeavySilence2]

Eminem is more creative and talented than you'll ever be. Jodie Foster might be ten times more intelligent than Eminem, but even the smartest people can be humbled by the words of an average person. The message that Em speaks about is universal to all people.

[ChoctawCreek]

I would take your opinion seriously if you wouldn't have began with with the "more talented than you'll ever be" song and dance... Thanks anyway, but you don't know who I am or what I do for a living. Next time, approach an argument with facts rather than assumptions.

[oni6903]

lol who kares..

[valentine00002]

thanks you just made a very good point that i would have made,what CHOCTAWCREEK said was plain stupid....she may or may not be smarter than eminem but he has sent a message to be understood by all that even talented people like jodie obviously grasped.

[RogueRotting360]

Great comment. Though I disagree with you that Jodie's 10 times more intelligent than Em..... He is a very intelligent guy if you look at his last interview on rolling stone and all of his lyrics. He's like a savant in the way he can only do hip-hop and not much else, but he's a genius at what he does.

I'm saying this because people often jump to the conclusion that just because someone comes from a poor socioeconomic status and isn't that articulate in conversation, means they're average.

[08manohb]

@RogueRotting360 I completely agree, it's ridiculous to see how many people here are bashing Eminem

[RogueRotting360]

ChoctawCreek: Man, you're a fucking elitist bourgeois snob. That guy is a better father and artist than you'll ever be.

[kates254]

Excuse me, I realize this comment was posted a year ago, but as someone who was sitting in that crowd of UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA graduates, I take offense to the notion that anyone has to "lower" themselves to our level... Jodie Foster or otherwise.

[ClamChowdah429]

Hey, that's fine. But I didn't say "your" level, I meant Eminem's level.

After working hard and graduating from a great college, I wouldn't want to be rewarded with Eminem lyrics. What does he stand for???

Perhaps at the next Democratic Convention I'll ask to quote Sarah Palin.

[08manohb]

@ChoctawCreek you're calling eminem untalented ? you have to be kidding me, i'd like to see you write verses like him 

[haiqalalfarisi]

Lol

[fostachild]

shits weaaaak

[atx23gurl]

All the pain inside amplified by the

fact that I can't provide the right type of

life for my family

cuz man these goddamn food stamps don't

buy diapers.

[Gwenster11]

omg this is funny! she really got them listening i bet lol

[Matteotheoneandonly]

she sucked

[Polistotle]

Yes, Jodie graduated from Yale. She was a crack head and a dyke. But she graduated from Yale.

[atx23gurl]

Bullshit, she was never a crackhead, and she is the classiest "dyke" I've ever seen.

[Tigerlily21]

Jodie a crackhead? Yeah sure...she is awesome leave her alone. Damn good actress and smart as hell.

[MadisonLee555]

i guess she found a way to communicate with young people!

[attestthesun]

i love her.

[katekaos]

What accent!? I can't believe she spoke at a graduation! That is so cool and whoever was graduating is lucky as hell. I can't believe she quoted Eminem though. haha

[atx23gurl]

I don't know what's so surprising about her quoting this particular song to graduates. It was and is the song that I have always and still do use to motivate myself to continue pursuing my goals.

[HelenBaq]

It's not about eminem, it's about the meaning of the song. And good on her for doing it. It's funny and it did send the message across. And as for the gay thing, I think that's all her business, no one elses. No one else but her has the right to know.

And I love her accent too ^^

[lsuboy911]

I was at this Graduation !!!

[DidiHylobates]

I love how aggressively rhotic her accent is. She hits those post-vocalic R's like most people hit Olive Garden breadsticks: ALL MOTHERTRUCKIN' DAY.

[GosfordAbercrombie]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What?!?!?!?!?!

[camelhorseunited]

i love her so much !!

[Dreadin88]

cunt

[eudemonloopa]

WTH is this? you discrase eminem BITCH!

[fresh1g]

cool yea everyone on youtube are usually lowlifes or little 14 year old kids that are probly gonna end up being nothing in life. well yea cool :D

[psiprophet]

LOVE JODIE FOSTER.  Fuck all you hypersensitive homo-nazis if you don't like it. It was just a corny thing to do, that's all.

[byemissamericanpie]

Why did so many people hate it so much?Have some sense of humour!

[M5XCG]

Do you realize most people here are 14 year olds?

[byemissamericanpie]

Well,not a reason to not appreciate good jokes;)
