The actor Nick Cannon, who said he is โ€œatoningโ€ for anti-Semitic comments made on his podcast, revealed on Monday that he has Jewish ancestry โ€” a Sephardic great-grandfather who was a rabbi.

 

Cannon was talking to Rabbi Noam Marans, director of Interreligious and Intergroup Relations at the American Jewish Committee, about the process of making up for the remarks he made, which has included both apologizing and study.

 

โ€œMy great-grandfather was a Spanish rabbi, a Sephardic Jewish man,โ€ Cannon said. โ€œAs much heat as Iโ€™ve been catching from the public and the outside, this hit home in a real way, because I come from a Black and Jewish family on my motherโ€™s side.โ€
