Since you are obv the expert what do “Europeans” look like? They all look the same right? No diversity there. Just checking…
Dolphin I hate to break it to you but you display your own ignorance. All Europeans or whites or Caucasians or whatever the hell you choose to call are as diverse a group of people as Asians, Native Americans, persons of African heritage, etc. And it’s all good.
justv another bleached-out bimbo..can i say Next?
Oh, Fred Upton also has Dutch names in his tree (Jacobus Swartwout, Antje Gumaer)
I think she would look better if she didn’t bleach her hair.
I agree. Brunettes are hot, and it would make her eyes bluer.
I’m not saying blonds can’t be pretty! But Kate would look great as a brunette and looking at her eyebrows she probably naturally is one.
She is so hot i would kill for her breasts she better that all them stick thin models lmfao.
