Cut her her short and dye it blonde, she will be Ellen’s twin.

somewhat reddish too
No Italian, Jewish or Turkish?
She’s a bit, well, ‘exotic’
Being dark-haired makes someone ” exotic ยดยด?
Yet another anti-white on this site
Jews, Italians and Turks are more “Caucasian” (or “white”) than Germans, Swedes and Brits.
Nice try.
If anything, “anti-white” would be suggesting that they’re “part black” or “Mestizo”.
Anti-Britsh would be more accurate. There is a hell of a lot of hate aimed at British people here, as if we can’t produce anyone good looking without there being some German/Italian/Hispanic/Jewish, etc blood in there.
what the hell did she do to her face? she looks like a muppet
she’s ok
Post of a picture of yourself and let us judge you. You must be a “10”, right? Yea, you’re probably a jealous “2.” She looks gorgeous.
