Jewish people are way into their celebrities and their great people. And you can find it just about anywhere/everywhere if you look for it. Have you heard Adam Sandler's Hannukah songs parts I and II? Do a google search for "Jewish comedians". You'll be amazed at how many great commedians were Jewish. Mel Brooks. Henny Youngman. George Burns. Woody Alen. Lenny Bruce. Billy Crystal. Jerry Seinfeld. Sarah Silverman. Rodney Dangerfield (original name: Jacob Cohen). All three stooges. Jack Benny. Jerry Lewis. Bob Hope. Gary Shandling. That's not even near to a comprehensive list. And boy do some of them have a mouth on them (profanity, delving into forbidden topics, etc.) Fashion designers. Lots of them are/were Jewish. Levi wasn't just a priest you know. Calvin Klein. I'm not into fashion so I can't come up with a list but if you look you'll find it. Jewish scientists and Nobel prizes ... many of the great minds who figured out how to make the bomb were Jewish. At least one of them (ironically) was a refugee from Germany. You might have heard of him ... There's a few great Jewish baseball players. Anyway, Jewish people are very proud of their celebrities and there are a lot of them. James, that question surprised me.

Do a google search for “Jewish comedians”. You’ll be amazed at how many great commedians were Jewish. Mel Brooks. Henny Youngman. George Burns. Woody Alen. Lenny Bruce. Billy Crystal. Jerry Seinfeld.

There’s a few great Jewish baseball players.

Anyway, Jewish people are very proud of their celebrities and there are a lot of them.

For instance, do they all talk about Michael Eisner being Jewish whenever someone brings up Disney? Or do they go see Jurassic Park specially because they heard the director was Jewish?

Wether The Guess Who still exists is debatable since they reunited for a tour a few years ago. “still member Randy Bachman of the Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive”

BTO no longer exists. Wether The Guess Who still exists is debatable since they reunited for a tour a few years ago.
