American rapper Kanye West's surprise online apology to the Jewish people shocked many in Israel and received endless mentions and reactions. The lively discourse on the matter was also joined, of course, by Israeli influencers and celebrities from a wide range of fields, who sought to express their opinion on the post in which he lashed out at someone who until recently disseminated anti-Semitic messages.

"I don't forgive him and I don't forget because he'll do it again! A sick man and dangerous to the world," Ofira Asayag wrote on Instagram. Not content with just a Hebrew-language response, she posted an English comment on another story, in which she tagged West and wrote: "I don't believe you and I won't forgive you because you'll do this over and over again."

Big Brother star Nathaniel Rudnitzky also addressed Kanye's comments, writing: "Apologize, apologize, you have something! And shelve the song you dropped on us, you sausage," he demanded. "Poor, Marbon (poor in Moroccan; XIV) This. Not a hundred at all," said reality TV personality Adele Bespalov. "Psychopath," Stefan Leger insulted him. "There's no person as crazy as this," singer Roy Sandler joined in "Greetings."

Sarit Pollak, Static's ex, compared him to a man who behaves insensitively in the romantic realm. "Like a typical dosh. I don't forgive or forget. Idiot." "Big Brother" winner Tikva Gideon chose to touch on the subject by noting the surreal situations that the war invites. "Well, officially we're in the most troubling reality we've ever had here," she stated.

Among all this, there were also those who chose to extend a hand in peace and blessing. "Also in English. Happy New Year, Kenya. I hope it comes from the bottom of your heart," expressed optimism mixed with apprehension from wealthy Nicole Reidman. Model Barak Shamir also conveyed a softened message. "Thank you, brother," he thanked him.
