Celeb Parasite

Halle Berry made a comment on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno that many believe to be a very offensive, anti-semitic statement. Page Six reports:

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."

If you play the video, within the first minute and a half, you can see Halle comment on her big-nosed picture... when she says that she "looks like her Jewish cousin," you can visibly see that the word "Jewish" is cut out.

Poor Halle Berry, she makes one ethnically questionable remark and boom, that's it, she's Mel Gibson all over again... only way hotter and pregnant, and you just can't get mad at someone like that. Plus, Page Six explains that she was quite upset when she realized it may have offended people.

Page Six says:

"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.""

Wait, now she's hot, pregnant, and crying. I went from initially considering if she was a racist for a second to just wanting to go over there and give her a hug... a nice, tight, close hug. With lots of rubbing... you know, to comfort her... it has absolutely nothing to do with my sexual needs. Honestly!

Anyway, if you want to actually see Halle on Leno actually saying all of this, check out the first couple of minutes of the above video.
