PROOF
This is proof of who is jewish and who is not
Buffy bites the dust
This month sees the end of "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer," the hit show that was a teen fave and attracted surprisingly good reviews from the critics. Star Sarah Michelle Gellar may have been a role model for many teen-age girls, but she isn't a model Jewish celeb. Most celebs, when asked if they are Jewish, will answer "yes" or "no" and move on. Gellar acts like she is the subject of a demon attack. She was interviewed by Howard Stern and blithely answered questions about her sex life. However, when Stern asked her if she was Jewish she had to be browbeaten into an admission that she is "Jewish by birth" - but practices no faith. Last year, a dogged Israeli TV interviewer managed to get her to say that both her parents are Jewish. In other words, don't expect her to show up at any Hadassah meetings in the near future.
"Buffy" did feature, at various times, other Jewish actors who were happy to talk about their background. They included Seth Green, Amber Benson (Jewish on her father's side), Juliet Landau and Danny Strong.
