DJ Girl Talk Performs at Harvard Pep Rally, Students Rush the Stage

Tomorrow is the big day, everyone!

 

The Harvard Crimson will go head-to-head with the Yale Bulldogs in a battle for Ivy League supremacy and yearlong bragging rights.

 

Given the pedigree of The Game, the annual pep rally that precedes it is always an extravagant affair that puts Harvard’s billion-dollar endowment to good use.

 

This year, the administration booked student-favorite DJ Girl Talk to rally support for The Crimson Nation, but apparently, he did his job—too well.

 

The Crimson reports:

Alina A. Hooper ’10, who is also a Crimson photographer, said she was pushed toward the stage and started hyperventilating in the crush of people.


[…] In an effort to control the crowd, organizers took the stage repeatedly, asking students to step back—only to have glow sticks thrown at them.


Pararas at one point included expletives in his call for students to move away from the stage.

Gillis ended up curtailing his performance because of the failed attempts to control the crowd.

And this, ladies and gents, is why Harvard students can’t have nice things.

 

DJ Girl Talk, on the other hand, showed nothing but class last night.

 

After hearing that his performance needed to be cut short, Girl Talk asked the crowd if there was “a house somewhere [he] could go, right now.”

 

Bad-ass.
