It’s easy to forget that some good things happened in 2020.
This year has been beyond tough, but pop culture came through with a few gifts to lift our weary spirits.
Not to mention the Disney+ special featuring the backstories on her “Folklore” 노래, as well as her Netflix documentary, “Miss Americana.”
John Krasinski: In the early weeks of the pandemic, Krasinski gave us “Some Good News.”
His homemade “newscast” offered reasons to smile including a mini reunion of “사무실” 과 a virtual potluck.
It was such a good idea that Krasinski ended up selling the YouTube series to ViacomCBS.
DJ D-Nice: It only makes sense that this hip-hop legend — who got his start with a group called Boogie Down Productions — helped us find our groove.
그의 Club Quarantine on Instagram Live became THE place to be to dance to the best tunes and also stargaze at all the celebrity names popping into the comments section.
D-Nice has been around since the 1980s, and it’s been great to see a new generation discover him.
Beyoncé: Queen Bey is always a blessing.
She kicked off 2020 dropping her sought-after Ivy Park x Adidas sportswear line. Bey later offered up a hopeful message during a “Disney Family Singalong“; joined Megan Thee Stallion on a remix of one of the hottest songs of the year, “야만인”; helped set up mobile Covid-19 testing stations in her native Houston; and got political demanding justice for both George Floyd 과 Breonna Taylor.
She saved her biggest statement for her visual album “Black Is King,” which was praised for its celebration of Blackness.
Brad Pitt: He charmed us with his awards show acceptance speeches, won his first Oscar and gave us something to talk about when he reunited backstage with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.
Then he made his debut on the HGTV series “Celebrity IOU” before going on to play Dr. Anthony Fauci on “SNL.”
Pitt just made us darn happy this year.
돌리 파튼: Speaking of happiness, Dolly Parton is pure joy.
Who else but Parton could pull off contributing to the development of a groundbreaking 코로나 19 백신 과 dropping a new holiday album and a charming Christmas special all in the same year? 오, she also saved her young costar from getting hit by a car.
We will always love you, Dolly!
