JONJ in IBT





We're quite tired of all the Kate Middleton rumors, but... when International Business Times calls us "an authority on celebrity Judaism", who are we to argue?

JONJ in The Paris Review



The Paris Review? Smurfs? Jew or Nor Jew? Oui!

JONJ on Ynet


Hello, Israeli readers! Today, there is a write-up on JONJ on Ynet, Israel's most popular internet portal. Here's the translation.

Record smashed



Our record for website visits has been smashed to smithereens, and it's not even 10AM yet. Turns out today is Harry Houdini's 137th(!) birthday, and Google has him as the search logo (see above). So the world wants to know if he was Jewish... Thanks, Google!

Sorry, our website is down...

Apologies to our readers, but our website is down right now. Our hosting is on the US West coast, so it'll likely be back up at noon EST.

JONJ at Judische Allgemeine



Our website got reviewed by the Jewish German website, Judische Allgemeine. Here is the original article, and here is the Google translation.
Demonstrably Jewish celebrities, however, were [not] only the usual suspects such as Einstein, Freud and Meyer Lansky and Laszlo Biro (inventor of the ballpoint pen), [but] Gottfried Fuchs, who scored ten goals in the 1912 Olympics for Germany against Russia, as well as Jean Lafitte, pirate and terror of the Caribbean 18th Century.

Vegas Baby!


We've had some big news brewing here at JONJ for a while now and it's been hard for us to keep it under wraps till now, but (finally) the truth can be revealed:

JewOrNotJew.com will be making our first ever public appearance at Tribefest 2011 in sunny (though you'd never know from inside the casino) Las Vegas!

The event will be held from March 6-8 and we will be in attendance. We have some fun activities planned which we'll be able to announce soon (OK, one hint: Jewpardy!) and it'll be your chance to throw rocks at us ask us your burning questions about the site. And Hashem knows, that's a hot ticket.

There'll be a bunch of other fun folks there as well including a published author, a professional football team owner and a hip hop violinist (wha? we have no idea, but it sounds cool as all heck, right?) so it should be a good time even if we're not enough to get your motor running (tough to imagine, we know).

Plus it's Vegas, so do you really need convincing?

All the details are linked above. We'd love to see you there (Except you crazy people. You stay home. And stop e-mailing us, too please. Urijah Faber is not Jewish and, frankly, we don't care).

Seriously, it's gonna be an awesome time and we can't wait. Vegas baby. Vegas.

Moishe is now Zev

Nothing to be ashamed of, sometimes I go by my maiden name.

Long live the princess queen?



Yesterday, the engagement of England's Prince William and Kate Middleton became news. Ever since, people have been flocking to our website to read her profile.

We might just have to crown a new queen... of our website. Sorry, Sandra.

JONJ in the New Yorker


Well, well, well. The New Yorker. Sure, it's only the online version, and sure, it's just a link (on the topic of the Berenstain Bears, of everything!), but... well, well, well.
