\n\tHelen Mirren Zings Donald Trump In Most Badass Commencement Speech Of 2017<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span>
\n<\/h2>\n

\n\tHelen Mirren peppered her address to graduating students at Tulane University in New Orleans on Saturday with the occasional risqué joke and dig at President Donald Trump.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Academy Award winner also explained her road to becoming a “declared feminist” and shared her own “top five rules for a happy life” \u2015 from ignoring people who judge the way you look to not overcomplicating things.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMirren, 71, said she’d struggled to find one piece of advice that students in the audience would remember 40 years down the road. But she ultimately settled on a very contemporary piece of guidance.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t“Whether you’re in the French Quarter or the Oval Office, no good can ever come from tweeting at 3 a.m.,” she said, a subtle quip in reference to Trump’s late-night Twitter habits.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMirren noted that she’d always believed women were “as capable and as energetic and as inspiring as men” but initially believed joining the feminism movement seemed “too political.”<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHer stance changed, she said, after realizing that feminism was “not an abstract idea.”<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t“It’s a necessity if we \u2015 and really by ‘we,’ I mean you guys \u2015 are to move us forward and not backward into ignorance and fearful jealousy,” she said. <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t“Never again allow a group of old, rather grumpy, rich white men define the health care of a country that is 50.8 percent women and 37 percent other races,” she added. <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
