Mayim Bialik Confronts 'SNL' Over Offensive 'Jewface' Sketch
Mayim Bialik, known for her role in "Blossom," called out "Saturday Night Live" for using "Jewface" to mock her as a teenager in a 1994 sketch. Bialik expressed her confusion and shame over the sketch, in which a cast member wore a prosthetic nose to portray her character. She reflected on the impact it may have had on young girls who looked up to her as a Jewish role model. Bialik emphasized the importance of representation and acceptance of her Jewish identity, stating that her nose is undeniably Jewish and a part of her genetic makeup.
