Ha-ha, I can imagine, some nasty official gave a poor Jew
a name like “Depp” or “Wurm”, but Vogel is actually not
exclusive Jewish name.
BTW, I didn’t mean, Johny Depp is a Jew. His real name
is a french name Djeppe.
I thought it was Italian.
prince of exotic boys i heart him
During his recent interview with Rolling Stone, Biebs just came out of the closet as an Eskimo and then he says it helps him get free stuff even though he’s the richest Canadian in all of Canada.
“I’m actually part Indian. I think Inuit or something? I’m enough per cent that in Canada I can get free gas, ” Bieber said

That’s cool, I guess.
Inuit, though?
Aren’t those the people from Greenland?
Well, everyone else in Hollywood claims their Native heritage, so why can’t the Biebs?
i thought he was part jew..??
