One of the few pretty women of African-Asian mix.
one of the few? I say one of the many,I’ve seen a lot of them. Some you might think were just black like miss japan 2015 Ariana Miyamoto . However I see people have a right to their own taste.
Amerie, Crystal Kay, Denyce Lawton, Sharon Leal, and Cassie are pretty….so IDK what kind of bullshit you’re on about. A lot of Blasians are pretty as hell.
@devotion I think she is average looking. Kind of plain Jane. And I normally think black Asian mixes are beautiful but not her. Compare her to Karuche Tran or Kimora Lee this girl is not nearly as pretty. Models these days just don’t have it like the supermodels of the 80s and early 90s.
@midori29
“average looking”? LOL. I’d be curious to see a picture of you.
Cute girl. Isn’t she good friends with Beyonce?
You know what is ironic, is that there are fully black people living in South Africa who look exactly like her, complexion eyes and all.
Kalahari Bushmen and San peoples

Bushmen are a small indigenous tribe who don’t represent all South Africans
The key word is that they are indigenous to South Africa and one of the oldest ethnic groups on the planet. Khoisan and San have seemingly “Asian” faces.
True they look pseudo-blasian to me and have very old Y-DNA. They aren’t many of them, though.
No they don’t represent all south Africans, but they are part of South African. Must the same as the Portuguese doesn’t rep all Europeans, but are part of Europe
@Andrew who cares about their size????? The fact is they ARE South Africans period and she would fit right into their group.
@midori
Bushmen are known to be dwarfs. She’d stood out among them.
I’ve never seen an African that looked like her, she looks clearly mixed with Asian. She’s pretty, but it’s disgusting to think she’s banging Asap Rocky. He’s so scummy and sleazy looking.

You should start to see them soon or later. Chinese men are having babies with African women more and more over there in Africa. It is true that the Chinese doctors are trying to make the women have abortions, but it is not working
You guys have obviously have never looked at the African country, Madagascar! The entire population is made up of people of Southeast Asian and Southeast African descent. It’s a Blasian country and they speak an Austronesian language!
Also, the country has been that way for years! It’s not recent but they were a land of Blasians (Black x Asian mixes) for centuries! During the Transatlantic Slave Trade, 1 million of them were taking to the Americas. Many ended up in Peru, but some also ended up in the United States. Many African Americans could potentially have Malagasy (people of Madagascar) ancestry. I’m into DNA testing. Some of the results I’ve seen have people with maternal haplogroups that came straight out of Southeast Asia and can be found amongst the Malagasy people. It’s very interesting the little things hidden in our DNA and what people don’t mention when talking about the gentics of African American people and also that of people in Africa. There’s even an account in the Slave Narratives (a collection of accounts written by former slaves) where a man mentions running into a dark skinned woman with long, straight hair in Mississippi who called herself a “Molly Gasgo Negro.” Perhaps some of these Native American grandmothers some of these African Americans go on about are really just Malagasy. Who knows.
lol they’re the oldest group of people brah you can find all kinds of features in them some of them look chinese some look like other africans some look sorta like indians(as in the country) etc. etc. this is genetically established fact.
She is lovely. You can see both of her ancestries in her.
