Kanye “Ye” West declared late Friday night, “Watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump street made me like Jewish people again,” reversing his recent antisemitic statements that led to him being dropped by several brands, including longtime collaborator Adidas.
“Watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump street made me like Jewish people again. No one should take anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people. No Christian can be labeled antisemite knowing Jesus is Jew,” West wrote in an Instagram post.
“Thank you Jonah Hill I love you,” he added.
Chris Miller, who co-directed the movie with Phil Lord, responded on Instagram with the hesitant message, “Um… thanks for watching?”
