No, that’s not how it works.First you insult me,then you want me to be quiet.Next, I don’t need you to think I’m smart,I know I am.However since I didn’t come here to fight with you,I’ll let it go
Fuzzy bear, I’m not so obsessed with people’s race that I need to look up every little thing about them. I’m not the one making a big deal, you’re making the big deal.
And I’m not upset at all, I didn’t answer your question because it was stupid and irrelevant.
Now why don’t you stop replying and be the smart person you want me to think you are.
whats the big deal???????if she has black genes, she does. Im a mixture of black and white and im proud of it. fUNNY Enough if u look at me u wont think im black. but i categorise my self as black
To gjhgbjkl
Well I feel like replying.If you read her bio,she know because she was told by her mother.No he was raised by his black parents.Now true it was her business,but she told everyone after her career was over,just like most of them do.Also,I didn’t make a big deal out of anything,I simply make a true statement.Your the one that’s upset.
Also your only upset because you can’t answer my question
LOL @ kira
