Halle Berry offends Jews
Halle Berry sat down with Jay Leno last Friday to talk about her pregnancy, new movie Things We Lost in the Fire, and Jews having big noses. Oops, that last part was edited out of the broadcast. The New York Post says:
The Oscar-winning star, on the show to promote her movie “Things We Lost in the Fire,” was showing Leno and his audience images of herself on her computer using the Mac program Photo Booth, which distorts images like a carnival fun-house mirror. According to one audience member, “She introduced the first photo by saying, ‘Here’s where I look like my Jewish cousin!’ - it was a picture of her with a huge, distorted nose. No one laughed, and Jay nervously said, ‘I’m glad you said that and not me.’ When the show aired, they cut out her ‘Jewish’ comment and added a laugh track to the bit.”
Another guest in the audience told us, “If you watch the clip, you can see Halle saying the word ‘Jewish,’ though obviously there is no audio. NBC covered her ass. Ms. Berry should know how unbelievably inappropriate her comment was . . . She should be ashamed of herself.” Berry, 41, who sounded like she was near tears, told Page Six last night: “I so didn’t mean to offend anybody - and after the show I realized it could be seen as offensive, so I asked Jay to take it out, and he did.” (Source)
Great idea Halle insulting the group that inappropriate stereotypes taught me run Hollywood. Can you say “Career Suicide?” I see Halle’s future filled with crappy roles in movies such as Cat Woman, Die Another Day and . . . wait a minute . . . are we sure she made these comments yesterday and not four years ago? Really? Ehhh screw it Halle, your career’s already in the toilet–unleash your inner Mel Gibson!
NOTE: At least her pregnancy boobs are big
