HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) So, gentlemen,
Harvard Law grants admission to Adam Cohen and Sundeep Padamadan.
And now, Ms. Elle Woods...
Who was kind enough to send in a headshot.
OTHER PROFESSOR
(spoken) We should admit her,
for reasons of, um . . . multiculturalism!
PROFESSORS
(spoken) Multiculturalism!
HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) Oh gentlemen, please! Get a hold of yourselves!
Oh, look at that! Oh, what a shame!
She didn't bother sending in a personal essay!
SORORITY GIRL
(spoken) How's this for a personal essay?
GIRLS
What you want!
HARVARD PROFESSOR
Goodness me!
GIRLS
What you want!
HARVARD PROFESSOR
Security!
GIRLS
What you want is right in--
HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) Who are you?
ELLE
I'm what you want, Harvard
I'm the girl for you!
ELLE and GIRLS
And to prove it's true
ELLE
We all flew here on Jet Blue
ELLE and GIRLS
Thank you!
JET BLUE PILOT
Thank you!
GIRLS
This is what Elle Woods inspires
Everyone admires her
And Harvard should too!
HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) This is NOT a personal essay!
GIRLS
No! An essay's so boring and so much does not fit
So we're appearing live, right here
Making clear you must admit
That Elle Woods should join the chosen few
Harvard, what you want is right in front of--
ELLE
May I approach!
GIRLS
Uh-huh! Oh yeah! Go Elle!
HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) Now see here, Ms. Woods!
You can't just barge in here with
singing and dancing and ethnic movement.
This is a very flashy presentation,
but I still don't see one reason to admit you!
ELLE
How about love?
Have you ever been in love?
Cause if you have, you'll know
That love never accepts a defeat
No challenge it can't meet
No place it cannot go
Don't say no to a woman in love
Don't laugh when I say love
Don't think that I'm naive
Because even a person who's smart
Can listen to their heart
Can listen and believe
So believe in what love can achieve
Do you believe?
PROFESSOR
(spoken) I do!
ELLE
Do you believe?
PROFESSOR
(spoken) Me too!
ALL
Yes, we believe in love!
How 'bout you?
HARVARD PROFESSOR
(spoken) Welcome to Harvard!
ALL
(cheers)
What you want
What you want
What you want is right in front of you, front of you
What you want
What you want
What you want is right in front of you, front of you
What you want
What you want
What you want
What you want!
