‘WORDS MATTER’

Diddy Among Celebs Telling Kanye to ‘Stop’ After Antisemitic Tantrum

Jamie Lee Curtis and Sarah Silverman are among the notable names to comment.

Kanye West’s latest antics, notably an antisemitic post over the weekend, were a step too far for many celebrities. Sarah Silverman, Michael Rapaport and Jamie Lee Curtis were among those who spoke out, with the latter tweeting: “The holiest day in Judaism was last week. Words matter. A threat to Jewish people ended once in a genocide. Your words hurt and incite violence. You are a father. Please stop.” Rapaport took it a step further, posting a video message to Twitter slamming Kanye for “looking dusty” and said he was using the same disruptive messaging as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and those from the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville. Meanwhile, Diddy posted a cryptic Instagram video including political activist Stokely Carmichael, who quotes: “Many of our people’s minds have been whitewashed.” The rapper didn’t mention Kanye specifically but wrote : “That’s all. That’s all.”
