Denzel, Kiefer reach out

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.
