    I think the Hispanic/Spanish part could be Mexican possibly, but we have to do a little more research of what country his Hispanic part is from unless he is Spanish from Spain.

    Maybe it could say:
    unclear, possibly Hispanic

    There was only one person named Sonny John who was born in 1988 in Los Angeles: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VLFD-MVG

    If this is Skrillex, his birth name was Sonny John Duque and his mother’s surname was “Galindo”. So he likely has a latino background.

    I guess it’s his dark eyes and hair that are ‘Spanish’ of him.

    He looks very British (paleness, thin lips and all).

      Theropod you’re the most racist animal i known spanish people aren’t dark as you think
      y’all think spanish are dark hair/eyes because you’ve seen some spanish have same complexion now you think everyone must be the same. i suggest you to study history especially european history before you talk. True spaniards has been for centuries and not consider as dark but white just like any other european country nowdays american makes craps about spanish being dark because they see a lot of hispanic people in america . spanish-moor(arab) and romani gypsy today makes spanish with dark hair/eyes looking

      Spanish people are white, Spain is in Europe, just because Latin people speak Spanish, that does not make them Spanish, The same way Americans are not British because they speak English.
