Correction african And spanish, instead of “likely some”
I don’t know…
She is a mulatta. Genetically I think she’s triracial.

I don’t think her father is white.
He may be not white, but he’s not black either. Does she and her father look just african?
@gmillaz
IDk, half those celebs I wouldn’t call bi-racial. Christina is a multi-generational mix, like everyone on that list
@gmillaz
she doesn’t need any help from me, but in her defense, follers didn’t say what she thought he was, only what she thought he didn’t look like. He doesn’t look like a full white person. Odds are pretty good, that he’s a mixed blood cuban like the rest of his family.
@fuzzybear
He’s obviously not a full white person. I would not call him “black” though.
@andrew
Funny, I don’t remember calling him black,Wait let me check. Nope, I said he most likely was a mixed blood Cuban like the rest of his family
Did it appear different on your screen?
So, she is obviously mixed like you say yourself. She is Cuban, so she is probably mixed with both African and Spanish. Clearly not just African and “maybe” some little Spanish.
@gmillaz
I never denied she was of mixed ethnicity. I’ve stated before that on this side of the hemisphere pure blood black people are rare or should I say in a small percentage
Correction; including Spanish, not possibly Spanish
Her father isn’t black, he has definitely African dna like most Latinos but what do you call Afro-Cuban ?

Quote(what do you call Afro-Cuban ?)
I guess you call them a Cuban. The thing is, my sister -in-law is half Cuban/ Half Salvadoran . She says her Cuban father is dame near as black as the ace of spades(so she says he’s black). Her Salvadoran side also has African blood from a great grandfather who was mulatto
correction; including African, Spanish, possibly other
She’s pretty, she definitely has that Afro-Latina look and identified herself as Latina on her show Turned Up when she went to a Latina awards show.
