shes a white actress who is gorgeous!
Why are people thumbing you down? She’s white, look at her ethnicity! Or do you guys just notthink she’s gorgeous?
despite angie’s ethnicity, everyone believes that she is secretly not white and that one day it will emerge that she is a quadroon and has a african-american grandmother.
Because they are jealous of good looking white women :P
Its the truth i can smell there hatred and jealously through the computer haters:P
lol Let them hate it just shows there jealousy like making retarded comments on here is going to change her ethnicity or race i see i done to other white famous people too.
These stupid people would be laughed at in the real world but come on the internet they are suddenly internet trolls and warriors .dont worry so much about it they have no lives and spend all day on here waiting to see what people comment so they can troll:)
Thumbs down because you know i am right whoever is reading this keep leading you sad life .It just makes you look like a resentful jealous person its quite obvious:P lol
she is not beautiful, she looks like a old skeleton walking.
And? lol tell that to all her lovers on here that comment saying say she is too gorgeous to be European too exotic and only black people have big lips lol yeah right i have seen plenty of blacks with little or no lips.
Get over it she is white woman of European heritage go cry about it all you haters to someone who gives too shits.losers P:
I not just talking about Angelina i talking about any white celeb that looks alright that they are not white but something else. eg Minka Kelly,Cathrine Z Jones,
I actually read before that Angelina said that her kids are not allowed on the computer because they do not want there kids having negative influences from the outside world. Now i know why because they dont want them reading comments like the deluded thoughts of little freaks like idiots who comment on public furoms like here lol haha loser:P
eMi: most men prefer slim women. And her face is
beautiful
Her mother was also part German, from Angelina’s maternal great-grandmother “Jean Kasha”, although “Kasha” slavic word and can be like Polish, Czech, Ukrainian or Russian.
@ sparkle time – why did you specify only white people claiming to be native & usually choosing Cherokee? I know PLENTY of black folks stating exactly the same thing… Hmmm.
SHE IS NATIVE AMERICAN
SHE IS NOT WHITE
this site is retarded. so basically we say everyone looks mixed, give high ratings to idiots like the boss for saying she is something she is not, and try to change the ethnicity of every white person because we hate white people and just don’t want any of the celebrities to be white?
at the risk of getting a low rating, Angie is white, not Native American, Asian, or black. Get the fuck over it
what a lame racist site.
Anyway she looks mix to me
meh. I think if it weren’t for her big mouth and she kept her natural blonde her, which reflects very much in her children, she wouldn’t look mixed.
Her lips look like of a black woman.
Uh yeah that is why I said if it weren’t for her lips, you would not think she looks mixed
yes
Only a viel nasty piece of work would talk shit about children calling a 5year old ugly.This child will grow up with more values and merits that a cyber racist like you.And she is beautiful and have lovely lips like her mother

Just because she has short hair she ugly? and the twins are gorgeous aswellhttp://i.perezitos.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/mx0400940__oPt.jpg
Ugly is a person that makes fun of defenseless childen on a adults site about ethnicty and hides behind a fake profile i knew you were scum but you hit a new low.
each has the right to think what want, is not retarded fanatics like you that will change my opinion.
Calling a child ugly what right have you to comment on anothers child no right whats so ever.You fancatist whos views come from pictures on the net not the real world.I feel sorry for anyone who has to put up with you in real life nobody does probally that why you always on here filling every page with stupid comment.
And yes you are right to “THINK”what you want .Any “ADULT ” would think and not speak when it comes to comments about kids You can think it all you want that does not mean you have to say it .Any respectable adult with an ounce of dignity would keep there mouths shut when it comes to making disguisting comments about children you have no morals i pity you.What are you on about changing your mind i didnt tell you to change your mind i said be quite when talking about someone elses children when you have no right.I hope you never procreate the world does not need any more ignorant people like you there is enough already.
This child is overrated and I see no problem in finding it ugly, there are children much more beautiful than her, like Suri Cruise.
I dont care about your felling on this child or if another is more beautiful.I said you have no right making comments any child that cannot defend themselves .You should act like an adult and keep it to yourself and not act like a child yourself and a child is not called “it”
you need to look in the mirror before you judge innocent children
Wtf did u type there?! That made no sense
That was directed to “me”
