Penn Alum John Legend’s Oscar Winning, Chilling Performance & Speech

You surely saw the Oscars last night and it would be irresponsible of us here at Penntertainment not to highlight one of the more memorable moments which centered around Penn alum (and former commencement speaker) John Legend (C’99, Counterparts) and Common’s powerful Oscar performance and acceptance speech.

Congrats John Legend!  You make us Penn alumni all proud!  Penntertainment favorite stand-up Aaron Karo sums it up best:

Congrats to @Pennalumni @johnlegend on winning an Oscar and making the rest of us Quakers all look pathetic. @Penn @Penntertainment
