Mar. 15, 2025

On Monday morning, the reality star shared her thoughts on social media, writing, “Hate speech is never OK or excusable.”

“I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end,“she wroteon Twitter.

The 42-year-old SKIMS founder’s statement came after Boy George lashed out at her on social media for failing to condemn the 45-year-old rapper’s remarks. Earlier this month, West shared in now-deleted social media posts that he wanted to go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.”

‘I’m kind of appalled that not more artists have come out and spoke against what he’s saying,” the Culture Club singer, 61,said on Instagram.

He added: “As a gay man I have experienced years of prejudice, so the idea of doing that to someone else based on their race or their color or their sexuality or their gender is just f—ing appalling to me, and it should be appalling to you.”

Over the weekend, banners were unfurled on a 405 freeway overpass that featured antisemitic signs and referenced West with the words, “Kanye is right about the Jews.”

According to KTLA, other white supremacist signs have appeared several times this year over 101 Freeway overpasses in Ventura County.

The activity is all part of a rise of antisemitic vitriol.

“If you don’t know what to say, you can just say this in your feed,” Seinfeld, 51,wrote, alongside a graphic with the words “I support my Jewish friends and the Jewish people.”
