Tara Tucker, granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, discusses the importance of her Jewish faith, the rise in antisemitism, and her decision to be publicly religious. She shares insights from the Race to Erase MS Gala and touches on how other celebrities express spirituality, emphasizing love and pride in identity.
I'm the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, so my faith is so incredibly important to me, Tucker, 33, exclusively shared with Race to Erase MS Gala sponsored by L'Agence on June 5.
My grandparents went through the worst of the worst simply for being Jewish. My faith is everything to me, and I always try to lead with love and kindness with anyone I interact with and with every single thing I do to make sure people know who the Jewish people are. Although some in the spotlight may keep their faith private and off social media, Tucker doesn't hesitate to share glimpses of her religious life online and in person.
The countdown to Easter Sunday is on, and many in Hollywood are celebrating their faith out loud. Whether through social media and podcasts or TV shows and films, several celebrities aren't afraid to share a glimpse into their spiritual journey with fans. For some religious leaders, it's a decision that should be met with love.
I think we all should be proud of who we are no matter what religion we pray to or what faith we are, what ethnicity we are, she explained at the charity event, which raised $1.8 million for MS research. We all should be proud of where we come from and who we are. … Your faith should never offend another person.
And I am really grateful that I have a platform of 14 million followers that I can express who I am and share who I am. I hope that inspires others to do the same.
Rising antisemitism in 2025 has had a deep impact on the American Jewish community's feelings of safety and security, according to the Nearly 91 percent of American Jews said that violent antisemitism in 2025 made them feel less safe as a Jewish person in the United States. In the past three years, it's been a really, really difficult time for the Jewish people. My faith has been questioned a lot, Tucker shared.
I feel like people have told me, 'Maybe you should stop wearing your jewelry so often to show that you're Jewish,' or 'Maybe you should hide who you are.
' But I did the complete opposite. The stars are getting lit this Hanukkah. Before we light the candles, we all meditate on, 'What is a miracle that I could create for somebody else?
' Ashton Kutcher, who does not identify as Jewish, told Noa Tishby in a December 15 interview of celebrating Hanukkah with wife Mila Kunis and their two kids. That, Whether she speaks out on social media, red carpets or through her performances, Tucker hopes to make her grandparents proud. As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, I feel it is my duty, it is my responsibility, to do this, she said. There's so much propaganda that is out there right now.
There's so much misinformation, and people are just being hateful towards Jewish people, towards any group of people. It's becoming popular to just be hateful and negative, and I think we need to change that narrative and be more positive and loving towards everybody.
