Chris Brown looks like he is 1/4 white.
Chris looks black to me so it is shocking to find he has a little mixture in him (if its true)
Chris is 75% Black so he cannot even classify as a mixed race person. He is very attractive though!
To Mellow Yellow
Don’t get crazy now,I’ve seen some ugly mulattoes
I’m a light skinned black girl…Chris is a light skinned black boy…just because he’s famous white people want to say he’s part white. if you saw this boy on the street you wouldn’t even analyze his racial background to the T like you are now, you would just look at him as a black boy. He’s black, He says hes black, his birth certificate, i can guarantee it, says hes black. I’ve met this kid before, trust me he’s black. there’s no such thing as half mixed LMAO. His mother is Black too fools, light skinned black people do exist. ( and yes we do have mixed backgrounds but who doesn’t in the US, none of us natural born Americans are full anything.)
I agree. Let him beat down another chick and they’ll be quick to call him a n*gger.
Nobody claims Solange with her shaved afro curls and tribal wear but let her bleach her skin and throw on a blonde lace wig like her sister and watch how quick white people claim how mixed she is.
