First prom, now this?! John Krasinski, you are too good to us.
So by now I’m going to assume we’ve all seen at least one episode of the former The Office star John Krasinski’s web series, Some Good News where he recaps good news of the week from all around the world.
(If not, do yourself a favor and click here. You will not be disappointed.)
A couple weeks ago he threw a virtual prom for all the students whose prom was canceled due to COVID-19. Among special guests at the prom were Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas, Chance the Rapper, and the Jonas Brothers.
“It’s a very weird time, but each and every one of you are missing something and this is the least I could do and I couldn’t be more proud to do it,” Krasinski said according to a Rolling Stone article.
Well Tuesday, he took it a step further and announced that he will be holding a virtual graduation for the class of 2020.
“Alright, that’s it, enough is enough. All you graduates of 2020? After all those long hours you’ve put in. All the hard work you’ve put in… You’re gettin a graduation! And that’s all there is to it! This week! I’m there with tassels on! #SGNgraduation !!!” Krasinski said in a post on his social media accounts.
Of course, you can’t have a graduation without a valedictorian, so he’s looking for a fan/follower to fill that roll.
Alright, if I'm gonna pull this whole graduation thing off, I'm gonna need some help! First of all… I need a valedictorian! So all you valedictorians… dust off those speeches and send me a video! @somegoodnews #SGNgraduation

Looks like he wants your help in writing his commencement speech too!
The most difficult thing about giving a commencement speech is making it personal enough. So to all the graduates of 2020, what is that big question you would love to ask your commencement speaker?

An official date and time has not been released yet but we will make sure to update this story when he releases those details.
If it’s going to be anything like the SGN Prom, it’s sure to be a day that the class of 2020 will never forget.
