  3. L says:

    She is not Mulatto. Her Mother is half Hugarian which has got nothing to do with being white, European. Hugarians are Asian (they only became part of the EU in the 2000’s). And her father is half African American/Black. And Mulattos are whtie and Black mixing, period! Who cares anyway, she’s beautiful :-)

      sorry but Hungary is in Europe! Don’t get confused between Europe as a continent and the European Union which is an economic organization made of 27 countries now. Plus, if Hungary was in Asia they would not be allowed in the European Union! I’m from France and we are with 5 other countries the founder of the European Union

    • Me myself and I says:

      sorry honey, but you’re fucking stupid if Hungarians aren’t White.! I don’t know about which country you are talking about or which Asian Hungry you are talking about but the Hungry this page mentions and this girl comes from is in Europe and those Hungarians are White :D
      get some education
      oh and that was sarcasm there is no Asian Hungry ;)
      but I gotta give you credits about the Mulatto thing… cause she’s 75% White and 25% Black ;)
