NEW ORLEANS, May 19 (UPI) -- Maya Rudolph's commencement speech at Tulane University in New Orleans on Saturday included a jazzy, four-minute rendition of the National Anthem and brief snippets of her famed Beyonce impression.
"If you will indulge me, because we are in the Superdome, would you mind rising one more time for the National Anthem?" the Saturday Night Live alum and Bridesmaids star told graduates before she launched into a Beyonce-inspired version of "The Star-Spangled Banner."
