She is actually a natural blonde. Many people don’t know that. She dies her hair dark.
Non ha scritto “Nordic”, hai difficoltà di apprendimento. La Vergara da giovanissima era biondiccia se fai due ricerche, anche se è una “castiza” avendo sangue amerindio. In ogni caso non ha “dark caramel skin”, devi proprio odiare te stessa per scrivere certe scemenze.
Hai problemi di apprendimento, non riesci a capire un testo scritto.
I’m starting to think you’re not even from Italy. How can you say Sofia Vergara looks Hispanic when you say people from Spain are white?? Yes I can see a little native blood in her, but she looks more white than Latina. Seriously Penelope Cruz that is from Spain looks way more Latina than her. And also if you’re “supposedly” from Sardinia and think people there are white and Sofia Vergara doesn’t look white then you’re either delusional like we all think you are or you’re not from Italy, or not even Europe. I’ve never been in Sardinia, but I’ve been in the south of Italy and Sofia Vergara could easily pass as an Italian
%100 mediterranean. Even if it has native ancestry, it is in trace amounts. She is definitly not represent latina women.
bullshit, i’m iberian and never in my life have I seen anyone who looks like her who’s native here, she looks predominantly European but you can see the mix
Yeah, you can see the mix between Hispanic (Iberian) and a bit of Italian lol
None of them only a Hispanic from Central-South America.
That’s incredibly ignorant because Latin is an European language, let’s start there.
Sofía’s paternal grandfather was Julio E[nrique] Vergara Ordosgoitia (the son of Rafael “Coco de Oro” Vergara Vergara and Isabel Ordosgoitia de Vivero). Rafael was the son of José Blas Vergara de la Ossa and Cenobia Vergara.
Sofía’s paternal grandmother was Esther Robayo [Gómez] (the daughter of a father surnamed Robayo and Pepita Gómez Támara). Pepita was the daughter of Andrés Gómez Patrón and Adolfina Támara López.
NOTE: I put Esther’s maternal family with brackets because the source regarding Sofía as the great-granddaughter of Pepita Gómez Tamara is secondary, though I deduce that Pepita was Esther’s mother based on the fact that Sofía’s grandfather Julio’s mother was Isabel Ordosgoitia.
She’s like those Brazilian models that are essentially just european, like Gisele Bündchen or Alessandra Ambrosio
She looks 100% European to me.
No way. She looks mestizo. I am spanish and I´ve never seen an spanish girl with similar features.
she looks 100% european
she even sais so herself that her ancestry is european.
Not denying her indigenous ancestry (if she even has any) but she doesn’t really look like the typical mestizo. Mestizos have spaniard blood but still have some indigenous phenotype which Sofia lacks. Her nose is not that ethnic looking.
ethnic looking? what the f does that even mean
Only for — ——— can be Euro like — how it is possibile with such face and darkness she’s clearly Hispanic not the white some idiots here believe she is lol. Lol.
I’m European from Europe and no native European looks like her everybody believes she’s Hispanic.
I’m Spanish too and can def agree (sorry too late of a reply but anyways), she does look European generally but there’s something about her facial traits that’s just off, also her skin is swarthier than the average southern European or Iberians, perhaps she would pass in Andalusia as some people have tiny Berber admixture? To me she doesn’t look 100%European off the bat.
everyone in America Latina are white and can be have indigenous acenstry
i am mostly european and in my family my grandmother was indigenous acenstry, and i half african, but for my great great father i think, but i dont know this is a example
“everyone in America Latina are white” sorry what
Mostly black people in here, white, indigenous can be european in your DNA, so, she can be european but can be indigenous or european. America Latina it’s multiracial, and black can be indigenous or white and etccc
my opinion, i’m sorry for my english
sorry, indigenous can be 90 indigenous, but it’s a example
My grandfather has brown skin but i dont know if him are indigenous or black, my grandmother has half white and half indigenous, and i born white, and my great great great father are black, but i dont knoww
I think you mean most people in Latin America are multiracial rather than fully european, indigenous or african.
Have you never seen our dear nudist Cristina Pedroche? De hecho ellas se parecen muchísimo. Besides, he said European, not Spanish. She has changed her look to fit the “pancha” phenotype that is expected of a Colombian.
