In honor of the eight days of Hanukkah, we decided to do a tribute to our 8 favorite Hanukkah celebrators (also known as Jews). But then we decided that 8 just wasn’t enough; there are too many good ones! So, we upped it to eight Jews for each of the eight days.
Yes, it’s a lot of Jewish, but let’s be real – Hanukkah gets totally ignored this time of year, so we thought it would be nice to give a little shout-out to the people not dreaming of a white Christmas. You know, the ones dreaming of a little Mu Shu on Christmas eve. Click on any of our favorite Jews to see why we love em so much (and why anyone – Jew or non Jew – will love them too!).

Do they all celebrate Hanukkah and/or the other Jewish holidays? The whole half-Jewish stuff throws me off. Rather annoying actually. And I’m sick of people thinking we presents each day. Only rich families do that crap.

well the man liked chocolate-and lots of it- so even if he isn’t actually a member of the tribe, his fabulous invention of all things Hershey makes him one GREAT jew in my book.

No contest. Jon Stewart. In fact, I think he should change his name back.

Logan Lerman is my favorite 100% Jew.
