Yeah she has to have some Asian in her. A lot of Jamaicans do. Chinese, or Japanese by looking at her nose and very round face. She also has the stereotypical Asian bucked bunny teeth. She’s girl next door but also unconventionally pretty.

Always been a big Vanessa Veasley fan! You can see every part of that ethnic breakdown. Her build screams West Indies, and not being mean but she has a very Irish forehead. lol:) If you have her SHOWcase magazine issue you will also notice that eventhough she is very caramel, she has sexy freckles and redish-blonde bodyhair. I also would not be suprised if her Jamaican heritage had a lilttle Chinese in it as well. It is VERY common. I also love how if asked, she will break it down, but she descibes herself as “typical” or All-American. Very refreshing considering how many models use their ethnicity as a gimick or selling point these days.

VVfan yes she is very pretty indeed. Unfortunately I cant post pics of her on here unless i get permission or if its licensed under creative commons.
Hi Angel, there are a few Jamaican celebs with some Chinese ancestry but a few sites state that she only has afro-jamaican heritage. and yes she is fine.
