Green claims Cherokee ancestry just like his wife, Megan Fox. I find that funny. It made me chuckle.

Nothing. I just find it strange how everyone and their neighbor has a great-great-great-great grandmother who was Cherokee in Hollywood. That is all.

Angelina Jolie is not liar, she always fights with her father, he always calls her crazy and liar, why trust him? Her mother claim Iroquois ancestry before dying .Those people you mentioned has no reason to lie. Why you simple do not accept that many talented actors are not completely europeans?
Why do not you insist that Kim Kardashian is white? Because you do not like her, right?
You are just a bigot.

Angelina Jolie’s family tree and records prove that she is not Native American as well. Her family being descended from the Iroquois is a silly, family Native American myth not only debunked by her father but the rest of her records. She is not Native American. By the way, where did I mention Angelina Jolie in any of these posts? You are race baiting.

I do not think all of them are liars. I believe Elvis had an ancestor who was Native American, and I believe the same of Johnny Depp, even though he cannot prove it. Carrie Underwood and Bristol Palin also have a ancestor enlisted in a tribe, so yes, how could I not believe them?

I am not interested in Kim Kardashian. I have visited her page once or twice, and you can find an old post of mine in which I state that Armenians are genetically and truly Caucasian. I have no problem seeing Kim and her family as white. I do not have an Aryan view of white like many of you on here.

I accept that many white entertainers are not fully European. I actually find their backgrounds interesting, especially if one can uncover their ancestors from nine to ten generations ago, like in the case of Johnny Depp. However, that is not my issue with you and other people on this site. It is the racist remarks, like how that one drop of black or Native blood is supposedly what makes them talented or beautiful; how you utilize white supremacist terminology such as “pure white” or “fully white” to determine whether or not someone is “white” in order to push forward your own racist agenda. You guys do this not just to white entertainers but also black entertainers. I already explained what my issue with you was. You accepting every other entertainer who has Native blood as white but not Megan because you think she is pretty and exotic, in your opinion, is my issue with you. That, Me, is being ignorant and racist.

I say some of these performers lie because many of them have been caught lying about being part Native American (especially part Cherokee which is the go-to-tribe for those in Hollywood who want to seem more exotic than they are).

As you can see I do not care that Megan and Brian claim Cherokee ancestry. I still see them as “white” people and it has not changed how I view them. They may or may not have Native blood. It may or may not show, as I know a few blonde-haired, blue-eyed white people who have an African ancestor. It still will not change how I view them.

I broke out the list of the plethora of white entertainers who claim Native heritage to depict how common it is among white Americans to claim Native American ancestry (especially Cherokee). In their minds, multiple European ethnicities + Cherokee (or rarely some other Native tribe) equals white American. I am sure some of them actually do have an Native ancestor, no matter how distant. However, to say the ones you like are “mixed and not white” because you deem them to be prettier, more exotic, or more special than the others is, in fact, racist.

I also believe that many of you use stereotypes in order to prove that someone is part Native. I could take plenty of exotic Europeans, lie and say they are part Native, and I have no doubt that many of you would jump up and say that you can see it in their skin tones, or their cheekbones, or their eyes, or their nose, or their hair, which proves how ignorant many of you are.

I see Kim as white, and I do not think of her as any less white because I do not like her, which I admit that I do not. I am not persistent on her page, if that is what you want me to be. However, many people on that page will simply never accept her as white, though she truly is, because she looks “Middle Eastern,” which is a region and not an ethnic group, by the way.

People even insist that Nina Dobrev is not white, even though she is European, because of her skin tone. They do the same to Janice Dickinson, whose parents immigrated from Poland and Belarus. However, their “exotic” features do not change the fact that they are white.

It is you who seems to be unable to accept that many of these entertainers are your run of the mill white Americans. You seem to be displeased with that, especially if you find them exotic or pretty.

I have stated that plenty of white Americans have admixture and are not fully European. I have even stated that Europeans have admixture. Marisa Tomei’s parents are both Italian, literally from Europe. However, Marisa’s mother took a DNA test, only to find out that she was 13% African. After finding this out, guess what? I still see Marisa as a white Italian woman. Nothing has changed. It is just a cool fact about her genealogy that proves that most whites are not “pure,” as you and white supremacists like to claim.

But some of you are so stuck on this that you have taken it to mean that it somehow makes them better and superior to other whites who are supposedly “pure,” just like white supremacists consider the so-called “pure whites” superior to those who have admixture or even LOOK like they have admixture. Call it reverse racism if you will, but I have pointed out that there a lot of white entertainers who have admixture that are not beautiful or exotic. What of them?

Basically, your assertions bugged me, and it all started with your comment about how racists want Megan to be fully European because she is pretty. You then went on to say that mixed people like Adriana Lima and Nicole Scherzinger are prettier and smarter than others because they are mixed race. That is why I combated your statement with the FACT that Megan is just as white as other white Americans.

Megan Fox and her husband, Brian Austin Green, come from a home of two white parents who may or may not have distant admixture like MANY of other white Americans. You know the list of white entertainers I gave you who claim Native ancestry? Almost all of them, with the exception of Cher, consider themselves to be white. It is a collective identity.

I think the better question is why does that upset you?

Surnames mean nothing in this country with blended families and immigration butchering things back in the day (by last name looks nothing like my great gpas he came from lithuania with). And Austin is a common first and middle name.
