Jennifer Aniston turns off Instagram comments amid Jamie Foxx anti-Semitism backlash

nme.com:

Jennifer Aniston has switched off her Instagram comments after facing a backlash over her comments on Jamie Foxx’s post.Last week, Foxx posted an ambigious message where he criticised “fake friends”, writing: “They killed this dude name Jesus… what do you think they’ll do to you?”The post was interpreted by some as being anti-Semitic, which sparked Aniston, who had ‘liked’ the post, to publicly denounce it on her Instagram Stories.“This really makes me sick,” Aniston wrote in response to criticism of Foxx’s post. “I did not ‘like’ this post on purpose or by accident.

And more importantly, I want to be clear to my friends and anyone hurt by this showing up in their feeds – I do NOT support any form of anti-Semitism.

And I truly don’t tolerate HATE of any kind. Period.”Jennifer Aniston owes Jamie Foxx an apology because this is just silly pic.twitter.com/2JztPYgSIB— philip lewis (@Phil_Lewis_) August 5, 2023Shortly afterwards on Saturday (August 5), Foxx took the post down and issued an apology. “I want to apologise to the Jewish community and everyone who was offended by my post.“I now know my choice of words have caused offense and I’m sorry.

That was never my intent. To clarify, I was betrayed by a fake friend and that’s what I meant with ‘they’ not anything more.
