Korean Rapper PSY Cracks Jokes At Harvard
Arousing
a fact of interest, South Korean rapper PSY was welcomed to Harvard
University on Thursday night by dozens of screaming and shouting
students and fans, as the "Gangnam Style"
star participated in a conversation inside an ornate church dedicated
to the memory of those who lost their lives in World War I.
PSY proceeded addressing students and faculty by noting that his presence at the Ivy League school “is so weird.”
Furthermore,
he was known to have recalled spending four years studying management
at Boston University while marveling at Harvard from afar. PSY joked
about his academic performance
while at school in Boston, saying he was known by a nickname of WWF —
which, he said, stands for withdrawal, withdrawal, failure.
In fact,
the pop star, whose real name happens to be Park Jae-sang, also joked
that he is heard that he is the first person to make a speech at Harvard
without a written script.
Harvard
professor of Korean History Carter Eckert says the discussion is looking
at PSY as a modern global digital culture phenomenon.
PSY
cracked jokes throughout this speech and said he was very shocked as his
“Gangnam Style” video went viral. He also mentioned that he was
overwhelmed by its success and doesn’t
realistically expect to replicate the feat. “Gangnam Style” was
YouTube’s most-viewed video with more than 1.5 billion views, while his
new single, “Gentleman” has more than 300 million views.
PSY
continued saying that Gangnam style was not normal and that it was not
standard rather that was an accident and accidents don’t happen often.
It seems that he wondered aloud
why American TV news shows start so early, joking that he had a brutal
experience waking up early for rehearsal for appearances on morning news
shows while he said that he
recalled joining Madonna for rehearsal, saying he was surprised when she
told him that he can touch her body anywhere while they were on stage.
To conclude, he said he cannot say he have been the best, but he can say have done his best for 13 years as a musician.
That's just crazy!
