YouTube’s livestream had an energetic opening with Lizzo, 32, as she played the flute with a color animated background.

The Juice singer was joined by a dozen other flute players as she kicked off the event.

Taylor Swift, 30, used her own personal experience to relate to the students.

“I just wanted to say congratulations! I know this is probably not the graduation you thought you would be having.

“I relate to that in a lot of ways because when I was younger I would fantasize about the cap and gown, parties with your friends… the whole thing.

“Then when I got to that point in my life I was on a radio tour and just got my diploma in the mail,” the Lover singer said.

Bad Guy Singer Billie Eilish, 18, quickly appeared to voice her support: “I’m so proud of you, I want to wish you the best of luck for your journeys and your futures.”
