She must have a little bit Asian in her DNA. She looks Chinese.
Does she look full or half Chinese?
I always thought she only looked half quite honestly and she probably has east Asian blood. President Carter has east Asian, Jewish, and North African blood in the past two thousand years according to geni.com so anything is possible.
How can a person with blue eyes have an Asian parent? Blue eyes are a recessive gene, so their Asian parent would have to carry it, too, for it to physically appear in their children.
If Jimmy Carter has Asian, Jewish, or North African ancestry hundreds of years ago, it wouldn’t show up in his physical appearance. And every other person of British descent would have the same ancestry by now.
I was actually joking about the half Asian ancestry by comparing it to thousands of years ago where every person of European descent is related somehow. Anyway please add T.J. Thyne I was curious to know his ethnicity.
Follers, you sound really foolish. Kristin Kreuk is half Chinese and she has colored eyes and I have known quite a few Hapas that have blue eyes. Check out actress Mylene Jampanoi. She was born to a Chinese father and a French mother, her eyes are blue. Anyone can colored eyes, even black people. Don’t be ignorant.
Kristin Kreuk and Mylene Jampanoi have dark green eyes, not blue. It’s not the same thing.
For a child to have blue eyes, both parents have to carry an allele for blue eyes. That’s how recessive genes work.
She does not look Asian, she looks white.
Racist ass
please tell me who you r looking at god ur a dumbass how the fuck do she look Asian as I recall in America back when the white people only classified themselves as being you have to have white skin as I recall in America whites people thought they were the shit so please describe how this bitch look Asian god you white people want to be more than one race don’t you guys
Slavic/Russian to me.
I’m seeing the Russian. I just don’t know where the nose and lips come from..
I thought she was half Asian.
There has to be some Asian in her family tree.
Not exactly… Maybe she has less than a percent to one percent but you are all just saying that because of “how she is posing”. I doubt she has any Asian ancestry over a percent.
she looks european with some sort of mongoloid admixture. Out of all her european blood i’d say the scottish shows the most (not to mention her surname is scottish) but she could pass for eastern european or mixed race nordic. After having watched the most recent hunger games, i think she looks part native american along with her ethnicities listed above
i dont see any native american in her
and the makeup she wears changes her eyes

Lawrence is more commonly an english surname.
I think she looks a little Asian too
She does have Asiastic eyes. I don’t think she’s 100% white.
She has an epicanthal fold, like Robert Pattenson.
But that doesn’t everyone with that feature is Mongoloid.
I know a Middle Eastern family who originate from Mesopotamia with a slight epicanthal fold. Does it mean that they’re “Asiatic”?
Both Iceland and parts of Norway were home to Yakut natives, a large ancient wandering tribe from Siberia and Mongolia. They made their way into the British Isles during the Viking invasion. Yakuts are related genetically to Southwestern US Native Americans, Apache and Navajo, I believe.
Where’d you get your information from? The Yakuts never made their way into Britain, they really only ever settled in and around parts of Siberian Russia. The only people who successfully invaded and settled into Britain were the Vikings, Anglo-Saxons, Romans, Celts etc. (just neighboring countries). And about the Icelandics and Norwegians, you’ve probably messed yourself up with the Saami’s, which are found in Northern Scandinavia, and there are only about a few hundred thousand of them, and are a really small minority group. Genetically and historically, Icelandics are almost just pure viking. Before the vikings settled Iceland, there are claims to have had Irish monasteries, but apparently “ran away” from the vikings. The Saami’s or Yakuts never ever settled Iceland. Or any other eskimo-asian tribe. Not even inuits. Long story short, you’re basically wrong about everything you said about the Icelandics, Norwegians and Britains. They’re all mainly Euro.
The Icelandic people are partly Irish & Scots. This has been verified by genetic testing. The mtdna is about 60% Gaelic and ydna and 20% Gaelic which the ydna is 80% Norse.

http://archeurope.eu/index.php?page=greenland-vikings-had-celtic-blood
A lot of this research is fairly limited anf flawed. If there was a Celtic element in the Icelandic population, it has been bred out now.
Consider the relation between Yakuts and Finno-Ugric people.
Yakuts: 90% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
Finns: 60% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
Sami people 53% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
(they live in north Sweden and Norway)
Russians: 23% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
Swedes: 10% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c/Q
So, some Nordic people, Baltic people, Russians may inherit genes of Finno-Ugric people(mongoloid race) from Scandinavians/Russian/east European people.
Sami people still keep features of mongoloid race

btw yakuts are turkic
She has hooded eyes that make her double eyelid difficult to see( not having double eyelid is a feature asociated with Asians), that is why she looks “asÃan”. But in Asia there are many people who are 100 % asian and has doble eyelid.
Only Koreans and Mongols have more people who have no double eyelid. Most Chinese, Japanese and south eastern Asians have double eyelid(some of them have hidden double eyelid).
I am an Asian. For my intuition, the shape of her eyes is different to most Caucasians and close to Mongoloid race.
In fact, Baltic people. Swedes, Russians, north Germans may inherit genes of Finno-Ugric people from their ancestors.

She looks Scandinavian (think Renee Zellweger)
Everyone thinks Europeans, especially Brits, are so purebred. That is the biggest joke in the world. They were constantly invaded, and there are Asians mixed in from Norway and Iceland. Renee is supposedly Sami, which isn’t quite as Asian looking as the Yakuts from Iceland.
Consider the relation between Scandinavians and Finno-Ugric people.
Yakuts(90% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c) 100% mongoloid race.
Finns: 60% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
Sami people 53% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
(they live in north Sweden and Norway)
Russians: 23% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c
Swedes: 10% Y-DNA haplogroup N1c/Q
