As Twitchy reported, rapper Macklemore is in a mess of his own making after performing in a costume highly suggestive of anti-Semitic stereotypes.When actor Seth Rogen found out about the stunt, he was less than impressed:
.@macklemore, first you trick people into thinking you're a rapper, now you trick them into thinking you're Jewish? pic.twitter.com/3rtaE4GHje

@JensenClan88 look it up. Homey done lost his damn mind.

And when Macklemore tried to plead ignorance:
A fake witches nose, wig, and beard = random costume. Not my idea of a stereotype of anybody.

Rogen called B.S.:
.@macklemore really?? Because if I told someone to put together an anti Semitic Jew costume, they'd have that exact shopping list.

There you have it. Pretty safe to say that Rogen won’t be joining the Macklemore Fan Club anytime soon. Can’t say we blame him.
@Sethrogen @macklemore costume is offensive. period. and not to own up to it…even worse.
