stolen the show at
the 57th Grammys,
but we'd rather talk about
the Jews dressing up the red
carpet, among them Barbra
Streisand, Jane Seymour (her
dad was Jewish), Melissa
Rivers and John Mayer. Here,

BECK (with wife, Marissa Ribisi), wearing Saint
Laurent. Winner of three Grammys, including the
highest honor, Album of the Year, the eclectic
genius grew up celebrating Jewish holidays and
considers himself Jewish, according to a 2008
Spin article. His mother, Bibbe Hansen, is Jewish,
as well as a visual artist and darling of Andy

HAIM, consisting of sisters, from left,
Este Haim (wearing Chloe), Danielle
Haim and Alana Haim (both wearing
Stella McCartney). The trio's father,
Moti, was born in Israel; for their first
gig, in a Hollywood deli, they were paid
in matzah-ball soup. And yes, their

Warhol's Factory; her father is also an artist and
Fluxus pioneer. Beck also was influenced by his
father's interest in Scientology.
