Razzie Awards 2025: Madame Web 'wins' Worst Picture, Francis Ford Coppola chosen Worst Director

During Duke University's commencement ceremony on Sunday (May 12), several students walked out as actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld was about to give his address. Videos posted on social media showed people waving Palestinian flags and leaving the stadium.

As Seinfeld was being introduced by Duke University President Vincent Price, some attendees began chanting "Free Palestine," while others shouted "Jerry! Jerry!"

70-year-old Seinfeld, who has publicly supported Israel since the October 7 attack by Hamas militants, has recently faced controversy over his comments on acceptable topics for comedy.

Despite the disruptions, Seinfeld received an honorary degree from Duke and delivered his commencement address without major interruptions, as shown in a livestream of the ceremony. However, the livestream did not show the students walking out.

In his speech, Seinfeld avoided political topics and instead joked about the students, artificial intelligence, and privilege. "A lot of you are thinking, 'I can't believe they invited this guy.' Too late," he quipped, before humorously defending the concept of privilege.&nbsp;

"I say, use your privilege. I grew up a Jewish boy from New York. That is a privilege if you want to be a comedian," he added.

Seinfeld has not publicly commented on the walkout.

Jerry Seinfeld booed by anti-Israel protesters during speech at Duke University

A reunion is on the cards for the popular 1990s show Seinfeld. The show's co-creator and actor Jerry Seinfeld hinted that the popular show might just make a comeback. During a recent performance for his comedy show, Seinfeld, 69, teased that he and co-creator Larry David were working on a special project for fans.&nbsp;

"Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending. But I can’t really tell it, because it is a secret. Here’s what I’ll tell you. OK? But you can’t tell anybody," Seinfeld began in an Instagram video shared by Boston Global Media CEO Linda Henry. 
 
"Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. Hasn’t happened yet. And just what you are thinking about, Larry and I have also been thinking about it. So you’ll see." 
 
Seinfeld's 'secret' was greeted with loud cheering in the background by the audience as Seinfeld participated in a Q&amp;A session after his stand-up show at the Wang Theatre in Boston on Saturday. 
 
About Seinfeld 
 
Dubbed the "show about nothing," Seinfeld follows four friends living in Manhattan. The series was nominated for 68 Emmy Awards, won 10, and is widely regarded as one of the best comedies of all time.

The iconic sitcom ran for nine seasons from 1989 to 1998 and many fans wanted the hit show to continue, but its creator and lead actor felt differently at the time.&nbsp; 
 
"I remember when I was in the ninth season and I was thinking maybe it's time to wrap this up, and I remember inviting Michael (Richards) and Julia (Louis-Dreyfus) and Jason (Alexander) to my dressing room and we all just sat there and we stared at each other," Jerry Seinfeld told reporters during a press conference in 2021.&nbsp; 
 
"I went, ‘I was thinking maybe this is our moment to make a good exit.’ We've had a lot of good fortune here. Maybe we shouldn't push our luck too far. And we all agreed that this was the right moment," he continued. 
 
"And I remember it's the only time we all got together in a dressing room, the four of us, to make that decision. That was powerful, I remember that… I remember because as soon as we all agreed, that was it. You know, if the four of us agreed, I know it wasn't going to go further," Seinfeld recalled.
