Kim Kardashian shows support for the Jewish community over Kanye West’s comments.
Kanye West continues to get flak from several big names after his recent statements, especially the anti-semitic remarks. The rapper was restricted from both Instagram and Twitter after his hateful comments, but his remarks prompted some people to hold a sign on the Los Angeles freeway, with the quote “Kanye is right about the Jews” and give a Nazi Salute.

Now Ye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian took to her social media, to condemn the comments from the rapper. “Hate speech is never OK or excusable. I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end,” she wrote.

The tweet came only days after musician Boy George questioned why Kim had not openly confronted her ex’s actions on his Instagram account. “I’m appalled that Kim Kardashian hasn’t come out and added her voice to this debate because this woman has children with Kanye, so she must understand as a mother what it feels like for little Jewish children to hear these (expletive) comments, how demoralizing and terrifying it must be,” he said.
Kardashian family, Kris Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner also showed support by sharing a post on IG that reads “I support my Jewish friends and the Jewish people.”

The rapper was also dropped by the talent agency CAA, joining the long list of companies that cut ties with Kanye West.
In the midst of the storm, Balenciaga severed connections with the Yeezy creator last week, Vogue has no plans to deal with him again.
The public has also urged Adidas to terminate its association with West after the rap artist boasted to Piers Morgan, “I can literally say anti-Semitic things and Adidas can’t drop me.”
