Javier Bardem slammed for targeting Pink over Macklemore comments: 'The left is eating itself'

Actor Javier Bardem has stepped into the middle of the controversy surrounding Pink, Macklemore and the Israel-Gaza conflict — and is now taking heat for it.

The "No Country for Old Men" star shared multiple posts to his Instagram Stories Monday urging followers to sign a Change.org petition demanding that Pink be removed as a UNICEF ambassador, according to Reuters.

The petition Bardem promoted, titled "Remove Pink as a UNICEF Ambassador," calls on the organization to remove the singer from her position.

Supporters argue that Pinks comments are "incompatible with the role of a UNICEF Ambassador" and say ambassadors should promote "peace, understanding, and humanitarian values above personal biases."

The petition urges UNICEF to "take decisive action and remove Pink as an ambassador," arguing that the organization must remain committed to all children regardless of "nationality or heritage."

Bardems move drew pushback from fans and fellow celebrities who questioned why the actor was backing an effort to strip Pink of her UNICEF title over comments she made after Macklemores pro-Palestinian concert appearance.

Michael Rapaport delivered one of the most blistering responses, mocking Bardem as a "tattletale" and accusing the actor of going after Pink through a petition rather than confronting her directly.

He wrote in an Instagram caption: "Javier Bar-Dumb Dumb initiated,signed & is promoting a petition to have singer PINK removed as a UNICEF Ambassador. Hes is Bullying a Proud Jewish Woman."

Rapaport continued in his video: "Javier Bar-Dumb Dumb. Javier Bardem, what the f--- are you doing, you little tattle-tale? Hall monitor … you are a grown man, a grown f---ing man. Pink is a grown woman. You're both world-famous. If you have a problem with what she said, call her. Sit her down, have a coffee, look her dead in the face and express all and any frustrations and questions you have … instead you sign a petition, like a little b---- to have her removed as a UNICEF ambassador. What the f--- is wrong with you?"

Selma Blair also weighed in in the comment section, writing: "Why would anyone want this great removed from unicef for human , humble and loving words? This makes no sense. I would think the terrifically talented actor man would worry about his own incredible life more. And allow love to flow. And listen to everybody. Not just his echo chamber. But alas."

Bardem's decision to promote the petition also drew criticism from social media users, with commenters questioning why the actor was pushing for Pink's removal over her comments.

One commenter wrote: "I'm not a big Pink fan...I like her music okay, but she was one of the many performers who actually did ads for Big Pharma pushing the vax during covid. That said, who the hell is Bardem to cancel her? The left is eating itself."

Meanwhile, supporters of Bardem's position also commented on the petition.

"Pink chose her and her rich friends' discomfort was more important than people's lives," one commenter wrote, adding that if UNICEF does not "stand with Gaza now
