He looks a bit Filipino.
Not at all not all Filipinos have Spanish blood most Filipinos with Spanish blood don’t look like that most Spanish Filipinos look 100% Asian very few look 100% White.
Looks White and resembles Harry styles.
Harry Styles may have Spanish blood you never know.
read some of THE COMMENTS!! AN IT WILL TELL U HIS REAL NAME
He looks hella Latino. Like Puerto Rican or Mexican.
And argentinian
Well, since most argentines have little to no native admixture, (and that’s why most of them are white) i’d count his “Argentine” side as caucasian.
The dude is white. He looks like the most average italian or french citizen ever…
CORRECTION:
His birth name is : Jake Toranzo Austin Szymanski
As I understand it, his birth name is just Jake Austin Szymanski. I think it used to say that on the forum on his official website or something.
