As unlikely as it may seem, some celebrities have managed to regain public's trust and maintain their careers in the industry after facing backlash over their controversial remarks or behaviors.

AceShowbiz - Before Kanye West and Kyrie Irving are slammed for anti-Semitism, Nick Cannon was caught in a similar situation in 2020. The multi-talented entertainer came under fire after accusing white people of being "evil," "rapists" and "true savages" in addition to spreading anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, claiming black people are the true Hebrews and that Jews have usurped their identity. He was soon fired by ViacomCBS and almost lost some of his gigs, including "Nick Cannon Presents: Wild 'N Out".
Always open to conversation, Nick realized his mistakes after Rabbis reached out to "enlighten" him. He apologized to the Jewish community for his comments that "reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people." FOX accepted his apology, believing that he was "remorseful," and allowed him to remain host "The Masked Singer". The former husband of Mariah Carey also keeps his role as host on "Wild 'N Out" and his daytime talk show was revived, though it was only short-lived.
