The Truth is back I see with the usual troll comments. you obviously have some issues.
She is beautiful!! does it matter if she’s black or white…no one has to lay claims….
I must agree with the comment above. I can’t believe how naive the other person is. Jennifer’s geneology does not matter. This why our country is so racist. Why not just celebrate her beauty, intelect, talent, and her heart of gold. She has become a fabulous adovacte for women and their causes.
Your mother and father had to have been brother and sister.that’s the only way I can see a moron like you being born.it doesn’t matter that She doesn’t have the features you believe a black should have.the fact is she is half black plain and simple,even someone like you should understand that.also black people come in more than one hair and facial type dummy
Just Like Alicia Keys Is Half White Simple!

No disagreement
And U Can’t Really Say He’s A Moron, Because That’s The Way How People Will See Her. Alot Of People On This Site Would See Obama As Black Because He Looks Black. So Y Couldn’t “The Truth” Say Jennifer Beals Is A White Woman, When That’s How People May See Her.
The Only Thing I Don’t Agree On Was About The Part That White Is Better!

He didn’t earn the rank of moron because he sees her as white.That’s not why I called the person that,which BTW I was holding back.That person could have said I simply see her as white,and I wouldn’t had a problem with that.What earned this person the rank of moron is this(She can’t reproduce nappy hair, black skin, or black features)and this(They would just like to mate with a woman like her to whiten up their gene pools because they think white is better).I have no problem with people seeing her as a white woman.The problem is with all the other junk the person put down.Now I understand you want to defend his/her point of view,but I can’t believe you only disagree with the white is better part
No. I Also Disagree With The Part Where He Said Nappy Hair etc…..I Just Forgot To Mention It Because I Was In A Hurry!!
quite sure my more browner grandparents produced green eyed whit elooking children. this is the most idiotic thing ive heard. black people in america are not necessarily the same as white people. one can be considered black whether you’re skin is the purest white- to the darkest chocolate. we literally come in all shades, eye color, facial feautures and skin types. So you have no idea what she can reproduce with whatever race her husband is. please sheck out her biography, nobody is trying to claim anyone, people are just stating her ethnic background for all concerned. And not all mixed balck people look the same : clearly Obama, halle berry,jennifer beals, lenny kravitz etc.. are mixed with the same thing and all look different. read a book please or actually step outside your comfort zone and really notice the diversity of people in this country.
Jennifer Beals is white. It doesn’t matter if she’s half black.
To cool
What are you talking about,are you trying to put that reverse stuff?
Lil Vacha that would explain things.
