She also could pass as a Latina.
Every person in this world can pass as a latino, because latino ia not a race is only relationed with language.
Exactly!!! People just don’t seem to understand that.
She looks Hispanic to me. She has the weirdest nose.
Not that weird.
No little bit of African American? Perhaps distant relative?
Why? She doesn´t look Black
Wtf, are you blind?! She doesn’t look black at all….
she looks freaking white,and well her features looks vietnamese
You realize that doesn’t even make sense right? You contradicted yourself when you said she looks “white”, but yet she has “Vietnamese features”. Wtf???
To the user “theropod”: I was thinking the same thing. She does look partially Black.
correction; her eyes are hazel (light brown) and her hair is virtually black (noirette) I think it should be listed
He ment a big nose.
