Helen Mirren, Liev Schreiber, Gene Simmons, Scooter Braun, Boy George, Mayim Bialik, Haim Saban, Julianna Margulies, Sharon Osbourne, Debra Messing, Emmy Rossum Support Israel’s Continued Inclusion in Eurovision
Jody Gerson, Julie Greenwald, Ginnifer Goodwin, Selma Blair, Noa Kirel, Tom Rothman, Harvey Mason jr., Skyler Astin, Gregg Sulkin, Patricia Heaton, Diane Warren, Tracy-Ann Oberman among 400+ celebrities and entertainment industry professionals who signed an open letter rejecting attempts to banish Israel from the contest
More than 400+ leaders from the entertainment industry have signed an open letter released by the non-profit entertainment industry organization Creative Community For Peace in support of the European Broadcasting Union’s (EBU) public commitment to include Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest.
The letter comes in response to others who have demanded that Israel be disinvited from the contest. The letter highlights Eurovision’s unique ability to unify people from diverse backgrounds and music’s capacity to effect positive change in the world. The letter states that the annual event, with more viewers than the Super Bowl, is a celebration of unity and should not be used as a tool for politics.
Scooter Braun said, “Music is a place for unity not division. It is a language that should always bring us together. Artists should never be discriminated against for who they are, who they love, or where they’re born. These boycott efforts do nothing but distract from the uplifting and unifying power of music – something we need now more than ever.”
Gene Simmons said, “Music unites people from all backgrounds. It’s the one language that everyone can understand. It’s a beautiful thing and a great way to bring people together. Those advocating to exclude an Israeli singer from Eurovision don’t move the needle towards peace, but only further divide the world.”
The statement is the first of its kind – a call from the entertainment industry unequivocally voicing support for Israel’s inclusion in Eurovision.
Mayim Bialik said, “After a horrendous violent attack on Israeli civilians, calls for boycotts and excluding Israeli artists from international events simply because they are Israeli is abhorrent and shameful. Targeting Israeli musicians in this way tarnishes the unifying spirit that is Eurovision.”
The over 400+ Signatories Include: Helen Mirren (Actress); Liev Schreiber (Actor); Boy George (Artist); Gene Simmons (Artist/Co-founder KISS & multi-hyphenate businessman); Mayim Bialik (Actress); Julianna Margulies (Actor/Producer/Author); Emmy Rossum (Actress); Debra Messing (Actress); Ginnifer Goodwin (Actress); Haim Saban (Chairman and CEO, Saban Capital Group); Scooter Braun (Founder/CEO, Hybe America); Selma Blair (Actress); Harvey Mason jr. (CEO of the Recording Academy); Gregg Sulkin (Actor); Skylar Astin (Actor); Julie Greenwald (Chairperson & CEO, Atlantic Records Group); Jody Gerson (Chairperson and CEO, Universal Music Publishing Group); Aaron Bay-Schuck (CEO/Co-Chairman Warner Records); Dan Rosen (President, Warner Music Australasia); Joshua Malina (Actor); Patricia Heaton (Actress and Producer); Noa Kirel (Artist, Former Eurovision Contestant); Jennifer Jason Leigh (Actress); David Draiman (Disturbed); Tom Arnold (Actor); Tracy-Ann Oberman (Actress); Sharon Osbourne (Manager, TV Personality); Tom Rothman (Chairman, Columbia Pictures); Diane Warren (Songwriter); Sherry Lansing (Former CEO of Paramount Pictures); Rick Rosen (Co-Founder, Endeavor); Ben Silverman (Chairman & Co-CEO, Propagate Content); Alison Kaye (President, SB Projects); Orly Marley (President, Tuff Gong Worldwide); Ynon Kreiz (Chairman and CEO, Mattel, Inc.); Gary Barber (Chairman and CEO, Spyglass Media Group); Raye Cosbert (Managing Director, Metropolis Music); Jacqueline Saturn (President, Virgin Music); John Ondrasik (Artist, Five For Fighting); Emmanuelle Chriqui (Actress); Samantha Ronson (Artist); Colin Lester OBE (Founder/Chairman JEM Music Group); David Renzer (Former CEO/Chairman Universal Music Publishing); Paul Kemsley (Manager, Nixxi Entertainment); Odeya Rush (Actress); Modi Wiczyk (Co-Founder and Co-CEO, MRC); and David Zedeck (Global Head of Music at UTA); Laurent Amir Haddad (Singer/Former Eurovision Contestant), amongst others, which you can see below.
“We have been shocked and disappointed to see some members of the entertainment community calling for Israel to be banished from the Contest for responding to the greatest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust,” the letter reads. “Under the cover of thousands of rockets fired indiscriminately into civilian populations, Hamas murdered and kidnapped innocent men, women, and children,” it continues.
On Eurovision’s impact, the letter states, “We believe that unifying events such as singing competitions are crucial to help bridge our cultural divides and unite people of all backgrounds through their shared love of music.” The letter concludes: “Those who are calling for Israel’s exclusion are subverting the spirit of the Contest and turning it from a celebration of unity into a tool of politics.”
CCFP’s Chairman, David Renzer, and Executive Director, Ari Ingel said, “We join entertainment industry leaders in rejecting the vilification of Israel on the global music stage. After thousands of innocent Israelis were killed, over 360 of them at a music festival as they danced in celebration of life, to see some respond in this fashion is shameful. We hope Eurovision stands firm in the face of this misguided, discriminatory boycott attempt. We want the world to know that the entertainment industry supports the Contest and all this year’s amazing participants, including Israel’s.”
OPEN LETTER
We, the undersigned members of the entertainment industry, are writing to express our support for Israel’s continued inclusion in the Eurovision Song Contest.
We have been shocked and disappointed to see some members of the entertainment community calling for Israel to be banished from the Contest for responding to the greatest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
October 7th was a day in which a music festival meant to celebrate life was attacked by Hamas and saw 364 innocent civilians killed, hundreds maimed and brutalized, over 40 festivalgoers taken hostage, and many raped.
Israel is fighting a war against a European Union-designated terrorist group that once again broke a ceasefire that day, and then went on to slaughter over 1,200 people. This current round of fighting is not a war that Israel wanted or started. To punish Israel would be an inversion of justice.
Israel also has a long and storied history in Eurovision. This includes winning the Contest in 1978, 1979, 1998, and 2018 and having a diverse group of contestants representing the country, including Palestinians, Ethiopians, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
Israel then hosted the Contest in 1979, 1999, and 2019. In fact, Eurovision fans voted “Dare to Dream,” the 64th Eurovision Song Contest in Tel Aviv, the best Eurovision production of the decade.
Furthermore, we believe that unifying events such as singing competitions are crucial to help bridge our cultural divides and unite people of all backgrounds through their shared love of music.
The annual Eurovision Song Contest embodies this unifying spirit. Every year, millions of people across Europe and around the world join in a massive display of cultural exchange and celebration of music.
Those who are calling for Israel’s exclusion are subverting the spirit of the Contest and turning it from a celebration of unity into a tool of politics.
We support all of this year’s contestants as well as your decision to reject the calls to expel Israel from the Contest. We are looking forward to a successful and exciting Eurovision.
