Hollywood’s tide finally turns against ‘monster’ Kanye West: Viral AI-video features Jewish stars in attempt to cancel rapper as Isla Fisher and David Schwimmer lead campaign against him 

Hollywood has turned on Kanye West after he went on a slew of anti-Semitic online rants and started selling swastika T-shirts in his latest outrageous stunt.

The rapper, 47, has sparked outrage in recent days after he used his Yeezy website to sell a $20 white T-shirt featuring a swastika and launched an anti-Semitic rant on X.

After his three-day barrage of racist, Sєxist and homophobic tweets, many Hollywood stars have turned against him, including Isla Fisher and David Schwimmer.

Now, an AI-generated video has been created showing digital versions of high-profile Jewish celebrities condemning Kanye’s vile actions.

The footage, seemingly made without the celebrities’ approval, features AI versions of various Hollywood stars wearing a T-shirt mimicking Kanye’s shock swastika top.

The generated white T-shirt features a hamsa with a raised middle finger and a Star of David inside it, printed above the word ‘Kanye’, directly mocking Kanye’s offensive T-shirt design.

A hamsa is a hand-shaped amulet that symbolizes protection and unity and is often used throughout North Africa and the Middle East.

AI versions of Scarlett Johansson, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Sacha Baron Cohen, Jack Black and Jake Gyllenhaal all ‘wore’ the T-shirt in the video.

Adam Sandler closed out the video by giving the middle finger to camera and smiling, before the words, ‘Enough is Enough. Join the Fight Against Antisemitism’ appeared on screen.

The footage was shared to X – formerly known as Twitter – by Israeli self-described generative AI expert Ori Bejerano alongside a list of reasons why Kanye’s actions are offensive and not a ‘gimmick’. 

He penned: ‘F*** You, Kanye West. In recent days, Kanye West has once again crossed every possible red line. 

‘The man who previously declared ”I am a Nazi”, praised Hitler, and spread antisemitic conspiracy theories, used one of the biggest stages in the world – a Super Bowl commercial broadcast – to spread antisemitism and hate.’

‘This is not a mistake, not a gimmick, and not ”artistic provocation”. This is a deliberate incitement against Jews,’ he added. 

‘This is the normalization of Nazi symbols in front of tens of millions of people. This is a call for violence disguised as pop culture.’

Kanye became embroiled in controversy when he launched a three-day online rant containing a string of offensive anti-Semitic, racist, Sєxist and homophobic remarks.

He then used a Super Bowl advert to promote his fashion line Yeezy, which only featured one item on its website – a $20 white T-shirt featuring a swastika – before it was removed by Shopify.

Amid his outrageous actions, many Hollywood stars have turned on Kanye with actress Isla, 49, being the latest to condemn the rapper for his latest stunt. 

The Australian actress, who converted to Judaism to marry her now-ex-husband Sacha Baron Cohen in 2010, was horrified by the T-shirt sales and took to Instagram to brand Kanye a ‘monster’.

‘Hey friends, can you please unfollow Kanye?’ she wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday. 

‘Did you know this is the only thing for sale on his website after placing a Super Bowl commercial?

‘F**k this monster forever. No Tolerance for this s**t,’ Isla concluded, while also sharing an image of the offensive shirt.

Meanwhile, Friends legend David, 58, took to Instagram to condemn Kanye as he responded to the musician’s self-identification as a ‘Nazi’.

He branded Kanye a ‘deranged bigot’ and called for Elon Musk to remove his account from X, which has since been taken down.

He fumed: ‘His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews.

‘I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that he identifies as a Nazi (which implies he wants to exterminate ALL marginalized communities including his own) or the fact that there is not sufficient OUTRAGE to remove and ban him from all social media at this point.

‘Silence is complicity.’

Amid his shocking stunts, Kanye has been dropped by the Los Angeles-based talent agency 33 & West.

On Monday, 33&West agent Daniel McCartney took to Instagram Stories with a post informing nearly 7,000 followers he could no longer work on Kanye’s behalf.

‘Effective immediately, I am no longer representing YE (F/K/A Kanye West) due to his recent harmful and hateful remarks that myself nor 33 & West can stand for,’ he said. ‘Peace and love to all.’

It was not immediately clear when the agency began working with the Hurricane artist, prior to its announcement it was cutting ties.

It came after Kanye, now known as Ye, filmed a bizarre, close-up video of himself for a Super Bowl advert, telling viewers to visit his online store.

‘I spent all the money for the commercial on these new teeth,’ he said, smiling for the camera and wearing sunglᴀsses. ‘So, once again, I had to shoot it on the iPhone.’

‘Um. Umm. Umm,’ he continued before definitively directing viewers to his brand’s website. ‘Go to Yeezy.com.’

Those who followed the link found just one product for sale – a $20 shirt featuring the Nazi symbol, without any further explanation. Shopify has since taken down Kanye’s site.

He unfurled a succession of shocking tweets over the weekend which included an array of anti-Semitic, homophobic and Sєxist sentiments.

In the tweets, he expressed support for Adolf Hitler and stated he would never ‘trust or work with Jewish people’ again and insisted he ‘will not apologise’ for his views.

Among his most shocking tweets in the hours-long tirade, Kanye proudly declared: ‘I AM A NAZI’, later adding: ‘I LOVE HITLER NOW WHAT B*****S.’

He also wrote: ‘IM NEVER APOLOGIZING FOR MY JEWISH COMMENTS I CAN SAY WHATEVER THE F**K I WANNA SAY FOREVER WHERES MY F***ING APOLOGY FOR FREEZING MY ACCOUNTS SUCK MY D**K HOWS THAT FOR AN APOLOGY.’

A second tweet stated: ‘So funny how N****** rapping about killing N****** is not hate but posting a swastika is hate.’

Elsewhere, he posted a picture of a Mounjaro ijnection – a prescription-only treatment for weight loss and type 2 diabetes – and stated: ‘YEEZY DOES NOT HIRE FAT OR UGLY PEOPLE.’

He then filmed a bizarre, close-up video of himself for a Super Bowl advert, telling viewers to visit his online store - which has since been removed by Shopify

In another he wrote: ‘SOME PEOPLE I LOVE SOME PEOPLE I GOT LOVE FOR I DONT HATE ANYONE I JUST DONT CARE ABOUT THEM ENOUGH TO HATE THEM.’

Hours later, he bizarrely tried to explain away the hours-long tirade by claiming it was all simply part of a ‘social experiment’ and that he had ‘won’.

He told his 32.7million followers: ‘I won…I tweeted pretty much everything I felt like for 12 hours and I still have my Twitter. And most importantly my billions.

‘Thank you everyone for participating in this social experiment. Thank you and love to all my fellow rappers. Thank you and love to all black women. Thank you and love to all gays.

‘Thank you and love to all Jews. Thank you and love to all gay Jew rappers. Thank you to all broke N******. Thank you to the internet trolls.

‘Thank you for all neurodivergents. And a special thank you to Elon. I actually love everybody (especially fat WOMEN).’ 

Kanye was previously accused of anti-Semitism in 2022 after making a series of racist remarks, but later apologised, insisting it was not his ‘intention to hurt or demean’ the Jewish community.
