"Selma Blair Sparks Controversy with Islamophobic Comment"
Actor Selma Blair is facing backlash for an Islamophobic comment on an Instagram video criticizing U.S. Representatives Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush. Blair's comment, which has since been removed, expressed support for the video's anti-Muslim sentiment. The Council on American–Islamic Relations condemned Blair and called for an apology and dialogue with the Muslim American community. Other celebrities, including Michael Rapaport and Debra Messing, also commented in support of the video. Blair, who is Jewish, has yet to respond to the backlash.
