@thejasminebrand: Billy Porter has come under fire for comments he made while promoting his new lead role in the Broadway revival of “Cabaret.” During an interview on CBS Mornings, Porter said, “Black people have replaced the Jews,” referring to the show’s updated casting, which now features three Black actors in its main roles for the first time. The remark quickly drew criticism online. Porter, who previously participated in a Holocaust awareness photo project with survivor Bella Rosenberg, has yet to respond. He will be stepping into the role of Emcee, famously originated by Joel Grey, who has also raised concerns about shifting audience reactions to antisemitic content in the show. What are your thoughts on his comments? 🎥 CBS Mornings

Not to disregard the struggles that black Americans face but it’s not comparable to the mass execution of Jewish people….i don’t think he’s understanding how many Jewish people died

Good, that man deserves all the hate. He’s singlehandedly ripping the meaning away from Cabaret by adding unnecessary riffs, voice inflections, singing at his own pace without a care in the world for the orchestra, and he has no clue if he’s German or American. Sometimes he’s singing like the whitest American you’ve met in your life, other times he’s just talking normally, and other times he’s singing in a very bad German accent
