Halle Berry Nose Racism
Halle Berry is in hot water (from who I'm not sure) for an anti-Semitic remark she made on The Tonight Show Friday afternoon:
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.I'm sure Diversity Councillors were dispatched to the studio immediately.
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."
For the record, I don't think Halle Berry is racist, I just think she's an idiot. Saying that Jews have big noses isn't racist, it's as silly as thinking that a DJ making a joke about black women having nappy hair is racist. That's plain silly.
I work with quite a few Jews day in and day out, and it's true they have big noses, love Camero's and most of them work in construction. Hold on, maybe those guys are Italian. That explains all the pasta dishes in the caf.
Besides, you know the rule: Non-white people can't be racist. I think the Bible backs me up on that. Although, Halle is half white...so maybe she's just half a racist.
Halle Berry--Not racist, just inappropriate.
