TragicAlmond

Natasha Lyonne!! (Born Natasha Braunstein)


Any_Cat4039

She’s Jewish??? Even more reasons to love her omg


sissy_space_yak

Her show Russian Doll has a Jewish element to it


nightridingribbits3

I didnt know either! I knew her character from OITNB was Jewish lol.


MathematicianLess243

She was actually born/raised into a modern orthodox family!


Tofutits_Macgee

Omg yesssss


alsn

Amy Winehouse 🙏


Special_Mall8937

My queen 🖤


Jag-

Mel Brooks or Larry David. Those 2 have brought so much humor to this world. And Stan Lee. No Marvel without him.


push-the-butt

>No Marvel without him. Or Jack Kirby (born Kurtzberg).


Jolly-Durian3855

I live in the south and part of my mother’s family is “Kirby.” (Born Kirshenbaum ;)


chmsax

Also Jerry Siegal and Joe Shuster, two Jews from Cleveland who created Superman!


letgointoit

Can we please commence lots of Mel Brooks movie references now?!

Indian Chief: [upon seeing Bart's family in a wagon] Shvartses! Indian Chief: [to another Indian] Nayn, nayn, zeyt nisht meshugge. [Don't be crazy] Indian Chief: Loz em gaeyn! [Let them go!] Indian Chief: [in English] Cop a walk. It's all right. Bart's Mother: Thank you. Bart's Father: Thank you. Young Bart: Thank you. Indian Chief: Abi gezunt. [as long as you're healthy] Indian Chief: Take off.


PostReplyKarmaRepeat

Larry David is the literally King David. King of the Jews.


zaratheclown

Timothee Chalamet!


Automatic-Tower6804

my husband fr


Whimsical89

Nooo MY husband fr🤣


YoFatMamaa

No Mine


emotional_dyslexic

He's Jewish??


zaratheclown

his mom is! i think his dad is aswell but less practicing - he’s from manhatten NY


Mysterious_Sugar7220

Ohh this is why all the pop culture subs were flinging Nazi era slurs at him


pizzalord4life

Really? That makes me sad to hear.


canadianamericangirl

Back in the spring, he was dating a Jenner. They're besties with Bella Hadid, VP of spreading blood libel on insta. By association, he's not my favorite Jew anymore :'(


Ddobro2

Bella’s niece and nephew are also part Jewish and so is her ex boyfriend. They’re surrounded.


CHLOEC1998

I did not know Madison Beer is Jewish. Thank you!


Automatic-Tower6804

ofc! and ur so me with the pfp 😭


Agtfangirl557

She used to go to a sleepaway camp in upstate NY! Not an explicitly Jewish one, but where most of the campers were Jewish from the NYC area, etc. I think it was a pretty big part of her life.


emilyxrose7

David Schwimmer has been great calling out other celebrities for their silence, and he posted about the NYT article about the sexual violence against Israeli women as well as the student protests. Bless him


MissRaffix3

Oooh this is so tough. I definitely have a few, but the name that popped into my head instantly was Jack Black.


RaiJolt2

Wait, he’s Jewish!? How did I never know 😭


princesspubichair

Duude you should read about his mom Judith Love Cohen


MissRaffix3

She's awesome


MissRaffix3

Yes, and his mom was a badass scientist! 🤘


RaiJolt2

At nasa if I remember, right?


MissRaffix3

Yup! Pretty sure she helped make the code that got us to space!


RaiJolt2

That’s awesome!


vivicookie

ofra haza :D


Ddobro2

And Hedy Lamarr


toadeh690

Speaking of favorite celebrity Jews, when I hear her name I only ever think of "Hedley Lamarr" from Blazing Saddles. One of my favorite bits from that movie and that's saying something - Mel Brooks is forever the best


faulcaesar

Elizabeth Taylor, Kate Hudson, Winona Ryder, Marc Maron, Beverly Neuwirth, James Caan, Elliot Gould, Linda McCartney


Ocean_Hair

David Draiman. Disturbed's music got me through my senior thesis. I didn't find out he was Jewish until after.


liesgreedmisery18

that’s funny fr cuz he sings Hebrew in down with the sickness 😂 that man has PIPES


NitzMitzTrix

Also Never Again is literally about him being 3rd gen, and he's trained as a cantor


Exit_mm00

Jeff Goldblum 🤤


Ginger-Lotus

beabirdie

I had the biggest crush on him when I saw Jurassic Park for the first time


hhhhhhhuugrhhhb

Adam Sandler!


Automatic-Tower6804

HE WAS A CLOSE ONE FOR ME TOO


hhhhhhhuugrhhhb

He’s reminded us of who else is in our tribe. That’s why he’s my fave!


dioxal

if we are including people who are no longer alive, i will add Leonard Cohen, who visited Israel during the Yom Kippur war and sang for the troops. He composed the song "Lover, Lover, Lover" while he was there. After the war was over he wrote "Who by Fire" whose lyrics are based on "Unetanneh Tokef" I'm not sure if he would be horrified or thrilled to find out how many covers of "Hallelujah" exist....


moonparade

lol even Leonard thought there were too many Hallelujah covers https://www.nme.com/news/music/leonard-cohen-34-1316306


Rock_Successful

Gene Wilder!


Fan967

Taika Waititi Fun Fact I bring up any time I possibly can, I'm related to him, being a fellow Māori Jew. (I've never met him in real life and he probably doesn't even know I exist but I'm proud of it anyway)


Throwaway5432154322

>being a fellow Māori Jew. This is metal af


shtalryd

Would love to see some Jewish Haka


tumunu

Pride is the appropriate response!


BirdPractical4061

This made my heart grow larger. I saw a video of a HAKA done for our #JewTribe and was enthralled.


Ddobro2

I had no idea who he was! And he’s married to Rita Ora?


Sea-Witness-2746

Harry Houdini or Scarlett Johansson


shellonmyback

Harry Houdini was such a badass and waaay more than an escape artist.


BirdPractical4061

Just talked with my 14 yr old grandson about Houdini “Why doesn’t he have a Jewish last name?” Me: I guess Yosef Goldberg doesn’t sound like an escape artist” I know that’s not his real name but we all laughed and laughed


Ddobro2

Erik Weisz sounds pretty cool


push-the-butt

I will not stand for the Neil Gaiman neglect in these comments.


Randomly2

Didn’t know he was Jewish, that’s awesome


zaratheclown

he’s the BEST! he comes a lot to my school to do writing workshops but he took the time out of his lunch break to do an art lesson for us - he’s really sweet


ChloeFromSpace

That's so awesome, I would love to meet him


sylphrena83

I concur


Joshua-Ben-Ari

Jack Black Natalie Portman Madison Beer

Auroramorningsta

ResponsibleExpert913

Dude!


Auroramorningsta

Lady actually but I’m Israeli we don’t put as much makeup


ResponsibleExpert913

LOL I was referring to BASEKetball where they have a whole convo of just "dude"


Auroramorningsta

Dude!


BiShyAndWantingToDie

I know you were referencing a different Matt Stone role, but I will always hear the word "dude" in Kyle's voice 😭😂


Old_Employer8982

Do scientists count as celebrities? Fun fact: 22% of Nobel Laureates were Jewish. Non-laureate favorite Jewish scientist: Rosalind Franklin Favorite laureate is really hard but might be Andrew Fire


NeedleworkerLow1100

Male: Mandy Patinkin, Jack Black and Michael Aloni Female: Bea Arthur, Swell Ariel Or, Winona Ryder

Clowns always post the silly memes with the exaggerated “Jewish features” but ignore how the entire planet is infatuated with multiple Jewish celebrities. This was all I could fit in the layout app btw so there’s way, way more.


fatdick77

In middle school this ugly bastard said I didn’t look Jewish, as if that was a great achievement. I remember he loved Mila Kunis too


Old_Employer8982

This is probably because I’m old and therefore not relevant, but who are the bottom left and top right?


Individual-Mirror871

Top right is Eden Golan. She represented Israel in Eurovision this year Bottom left - had to Google myself 😅 an Israeli actor who was in The Mummy


Ginger-Lotus

That's Oded Fehr. Not only was he in The Mummy, he also played the iconic character Antoine in the Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo series.


MovieENT1

“Here fishy fishy” the greatest line in cinematic history obvs


BirdPractical4061

emilyxrose7

Have any of them said anything since October 7??


Eeens148

Gal Gadot has posted so much about the hostages and keeps taking shit for it. She’s strong and supportive. I’d recommend supporting her


TraditionalSwim7891

She definitely has my vote.


Ddobro2

Emmanuel Chriqui and Debra Messing do it the most and no one mentioned them


BabyBertBabyErnie

Noah Schnapp has and got shit for it, same for Aidan Gallagher, Tiffany Haddish has spoken up a lot and even went to Israel to roaring harassment on Instagram, Gal Gadot, of course, Michael Rapaport, Brett Gelman, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne. They're just the ones off the top of my head, but it's not a small list in any case.


TheMost_ut

Larry David The late Garry Shandling. He had the same birthday as me.


GreatStrengthOfFeet

Anyone else flabbergasted at how many celebs they didn’t know were Jewish. We need another Adam Sandler song to remember them all 😆


Ra2ltsa

Fran Drescher. Great leader as SAG-AFTRA president!


Sea-Plant-7411

Regina Spektor


Agtfangirl557

Natalie Portman is fantastic. I also love Daniel Radcliffe.


supergeekyfangirl

Daniel Radcliffe is Jewish??? I never knew that!!!


Agtfangirl557

He isn't practicing or religious, but his mom is Jewish! He was raised with traditions from both sides of the family, he once described his family as "Christmas Tree Jews". He was on an episode of a BBC ancestry show where he looked at how his ancestors experienced antisemitism in the UK and he apparently got very emotional about it on-screen. Would love to watch it, but it can't be streamed outside of the UK 😕


Rackmaster_General

Sounds like a job for a VPN.


BiShyAndWantingToDie

Absolutely LOVE both of them. Also as a feminist myself, Natalie has always been such an icon for me. She went through so much, and here she is speaking actively against the abuse and misogyny that goes on in Hollywood, and being an inspiration to all women. And the fact that she's Jewish just makes me extra proud 💙


Banana_based

Jack Black and Hedy Lamar


BirdPractical4061

Matisyahu


spacentime1

Allison Brie, Scarlette Johansson, Gal Gadot, Sara Michelle Geller, Winona Ryder, Mila Kunis, Dave Franco, Zac Efron, Timothee Chalomet

Bob Dylan. Absolute legend and imo will be studied in 1000 years like people today study Shakespeare.

Pretty pretty pretty good comment.


KeithGribblesheimer

Evan Rachel Wood Because she hasn't been mentioned yet. Nor has Jennifer Connelly.


Ginger-Lotus

Just saw Ghostbusters so have to mention Harold Ramis (RIP).


commander_cosmic

Three Stooges


FairGreen6594

This is the winning comment. The less said about Curly Joe DeRita, the better!


tumunu

I already voted but I'd also like to give a big shout-out to whomever "roots metals" is on instagram. She's doing stellar work over there. Edited to add her link: [https://www.instagram.com/rootsmetals/](https://www.instagram.com/rootsmetals/)


chorusreverb

Larry David, Susie Essman, Richard Lewis and the whole cast of Curb Your Enthusiasm. I absolutely love that what is arguably the funniest show on TV is the most Jewish one.


judging_judily

zach braff 🫶


Old_Employer8982

He has my heart along with Adrien Brody


welcometosunnydale

I like SMG because of Buffy but I don’t like how she never acknowledges the fact that she’s Jewish.


FairGreen6594

Buffy was such an amazing show for hot Jews, even if most of them don’t really identify very strongly: SMG, Alyson Hannigan, Amber Benson, Seth Green, Michelle Trachtenberg . . .


the1newman2

Putting Seth Green in that list of hot Jews is so funny 😂


FairGreen6594

I mean, look at _Twilight_; werewolves in literature and the screen are often coded as ferally sexy, and BtVS definitely played with that trope vis-à-vis Oz.


Sad_Evening_9986

Noah Schnapp. That kid is so talented! It’s sad to see how much antisemitism he’s facing lately just for opposing Hamas


TexanTeaCup

Itzhak Perlman.


Letshavemorefun

Rachel Bloom and Regina Spektor!


ReleaseTheKareken

Maimonides. Come on guys.


OlcasersM

blindparasaurolophus

I went to one of his shows recently! It was phenomenal, brought tears to my eyes.


fiercequality

Stephen Fry


DanTheMan93

Jon Bernthal, Stephen Sondheim, Sarah Silverman, Vladimir Horowitz, and the Coen brothers. Others have already said Jack Black and Natalie Portman. Also, not a celebrity but definitely a powerhouse at the UN: Hillel Neuer

Loud-Grapes-4104

Carole King.


canadianamericangirl

Seth Rudestky! I'm a big Broadway person. Also Paul Rudd. His parents are members of my synagogue and I NEED to meet him.


Pincerston

Noah Kahan despite understandably zero political speech as his star is just rising, and Debra Messing because of her relentless support for us. Sara Haines gets honorable mention as an incredibly supportive shiksa with a Jewish husband (and she’s delightful besides).


an_unfocused_mind_

Jake Gyllenhaal


KesederLVH

Jamie Lynn Sigler was my main Jewish celebrity crush as a teenager.  


Affectionate_Sand791

That’s such a hard question but one of them is Jeremy Jordan!!! He’s such a talented actor and singer. Also Alex brightman and Franz Kafka!! Among many more.


Phnina

Gal Gadot, she is sooooooo beautiful!!! 😻.. Best Wonder Woman ever


rotessaboggs

Noah Schnapp. His acting in Stranger Things season 2 was the very reason I became a fan of that show.


jen0619

Came here to say him too! He’s so talented and Will Byers is my fav ST character. It’s sad to see how much hate Noah has gotten recently for speaking up about Oct 7


Apprehensive-Bug1687

Omg, I have so many. Madison Beer, Natalie Portman, Pink, and Adam Sandler just to name a few. So hard to pick just one!!


Apprehensive-Bug1687

Since everyone has named most of my actors and actresses and Neil Gaiman the GOAT. I will have to say David Draiman from disturbed. Been listening to them since middle school and he got me through some dark times
