DENZEL
WASHINGTON and a bevy of his Beverly Hills pals will speak out
against anti-Semitism. According to the New York Daily News,
Denzel, along with Leonardo DiCaprio, Ricky Martin and Beyonce
Knowles, will all film spots for hip-hop honcho Russell Simmons’
Foundation for Ethnic Understanding. Not to be outdone, Kiefer
Sutherland jumped on board to make a PSA to garner cultural understanding
of Islam, after his hit show, “24,” was slammed for portraying Muslims
in a negative manner.
