Just converted to Judaism


Claims she did it for her new husband, Jacob Pechenik. You would think her being who she is would be enough for the guy. I'm easy... I would've just asked her to dress sexy and cook dinner every now and then.

Thats a really weird signal, really, people switching religion because of marriage.

It means you didnt take your religion very serious in the first place.

Basically "meh, I've been christian, now I'm jew, hey whatever".

I think she it for the jokes, and this offends me as a comedian.

Boy, this a bold move. It's tough being a Jew in Hollywood...

Great comments everyone. And I agree.

In case you're wondering, I'm female.

AHHHH Man and I was just starting to like her too.

It's a bit weird - I can't imagine asking anyone to change something like their religion to suit me.

I'm not sure that what I'd call love. It sounds like he cares more about his religion than her.

Well, it's just tabloid stuff. Not confirmed by Zooey or anyone else.

Well, if you want your child to be Jewish, the mother has to be, not the father.

And most of us are of a religion or another, for tradition, no one is really that devoted.

So, maybe he's really into it, and she's like

"Well, if I convert, they'll be a free Kosher buffet in for me, and I get to wear that sexy-jew outfit, that I had for ages, and never knew when to put it)



And I agree (mad me laugh) - "it's a bold movie--jew in hollywood" :)
