1. She looks quite typical for Italian.
2. She doesn’t particularly look Scandinavian.
3. You need to educate yourself a bit more on phenotypes, you are quite off with your comments.
“It is impossible that she is only Italian”
How is it “impossible” that she could be fully Italian?
Have you ever been to Italy, or for that matter outside of your parents basement?
My God there are so many ignorant trolls on this forum spreading their stink.
< She does not look italian
But she actually is Italian, and proud of that (https://www.instagram.com/p/BJfbUoDje7W/?taken-by=lindaevangelista). She was very lucky to get that look from average looking parents.
< in hollywood she would never been cast as italian
Well. because they often pick non Italians to play Italian people
I think Martina Colombari (former Miss Italia) with this haircut looked like Linda: http://ilarge.lisimg.com/image/6926647/950full-martina-colombari.jpg
