She’s beautiful.
She’s full European.
No such thing as being “european”
If you mean “white” like the american racists whenever they use “european” as a synonym, sorry but “indigenous european” doesn’t always mean white.
Welsh people are English.
No they aren’t you menace
I came here to look for an explanation of her name. Is there no information on where Zeta-Jones came from?? Is it just a made-up stage name??
Her middle name is Zeta, after her grandmother. Catherine combined her middle name with her surname.
of course she looks mixed,I’ve seen several hispanic and part-asian women with these features
She’s Welsh and Irish, 2 of the groups with the least admixture since the neolithic…less than .o5% non European ancestry.
She doesn’t look mixed. She looks very welsh. I have a friend who’s welsh and looks like her.
and she doesn’t look Asian either. Small eyes are common in several parts of Europe.
btw… Hispanic isn’t a race, its a culture.
anyone can be Hispanic. Like white, black, Asian and most commonly native American. The stereotypical Hispanics that you see are mostly native Americans.
She looks like she has some Asian or Native American in her. I’ve never seen a Welsh person that looks like her.
Calling native Americans hispanic is whitewashing them.Any real native in Latin AmĂ©rica would call itself in that way.They are brainwashed when they arrived to USA..The sterotype of hispanic in Usa is ridicolous.Hispanic is consideres a white european word in LatĂn America
Spaniards aren’t white you little american.
Similar to Italians and other southern europeans they have north African admixture genius boy. Thanks to this thing called “geographical position” nt every EUROPEEEEEEEEAN is white.
Vanessa Hudgens = Catherine Zeta Jone’s daughter.
I don’t really see the resemblance only that they both have dark hair.
I agree,but the nose of Vanessa Hudgens has a mixed race shape
Except Catherine is a lot prettier than Vanessa. Hudgens reminds me of a Pug.
