There is also Scots-Irish. And Belgian and Dutch
She could pass mixed race or Southern European. I find it weird she’s not Southern European at all, but genetics do what they want sometimes.
She would not pass in Southern Europe, she looks North African or biracial (black/white)
Some Southern Europeans have North African ancestry… Also people have said what you say about Dora about Alessia Cara & Rita Ora who are both Southern Europeans.
Some Southern Europeans have Middle Eastern ancestry as well btw. Not saying all Southern Europeans have admixture though some do, some don’t. Many have their dna tests online.
@coco
She does not look “Southern European” (or North African as someone suggested) at all, she looks mixed race.
Have you not seen Alessia Cara or Rita Ora?
Poor examples, both very atypical.
Not to drag this on but I personally have seen Southern Europeans AND mixed race (black/white) people look like Dora, Alessia & Rita. At the end of the day people have different opinions on racially ambiguous people. That’s why they’re called racially ambiguous in the first place.
I still say she could pass for a woman from the Balkans =P
