She looks like a Greek woman with a very thin nose..
Hey, I didn’t like her character on Law and Order but I feel that she’s ok in real life. I read somewhere that she was half Cherokee; however, when she came under attack for her political views she stated it was because she was White.
and scottish
I wonder what her blood quantum of Cherokee is because that could account for her exotic looks. I don’t know that being half Greek can make you that exotic.
Greek is a very ¨exotic¨look. Historically, it was the center of the ancient world, and it´s geographical location allotted for many cultures and ethnic groups to mix there. The Greeks have dark, mediterranean features, and thus adds to part of the exotic look of Angie Harmon.
I never liked her, she’s a republican type A psycho.
Pretty, and nice mix though!
