"...Schulman, 32, told the New York Post’s Page Six that he chose to wear the Star of David because of the “alarming rise of antisemitism across the country in the last few weeks.” He told the publication, “Since the unbelievable display of antisemitism and also with the white supremacy in Charlottesville … People who somehow now think it’s OK to vandalize synagogues or in Boston, someone smashed the Holocaust memorial. It’s scary because we can’t live in a country that allows for this hatred to be displayed on a regular basis without some kind of show on the other side.”
Schulman continued, “It’s one thing to condemn the actions, but I think it’s important that we all visibly show like, ‘Hey, you might think it’s OK to speak negatively or to have hate towards one group, but you know people in that group, and even though you don’t realize it, we feel that.’”..."
A television show host and his co-star made bold fashion and political statements on Sunday night at the MTV Video Music Awards.Yaniv “Nev” Schulman, the Jewish-American host and executive producer of the MTV series “Catfish,” attended the awards ceremony wearing a yellow Star of David badge — which Jews were forced to wear during World War II in Nazi-occupied parts of Europe — alongside a heart symbol on his suit jacket. The move came days after singer Billy Joel also sported a yellow Star of David during a concert in New York City.
