When describing her curves, she stated:
I’m half Portugese, so I’m built more like a Latina girl. I don’t think I’m fat. It’s hard to be around sometimes girls that are so thin but you just gotta own what you’ve got.
Her half-sister, Hannah Leigh, is also an actress. Lyndsy is married to actor Noah Bean, with whom she has two children.

Eve she’s said’s she’s Latina
Portuguese people (from PORTUGAL, which is part of West Europe) are White just like Italians, Spaniards, French, etc.. In these countries, people speak Latin languages but linguistics has nothing to do with race. This fact confuses dumb people pretty easily.
Summary of Racial Origins:
Northern Europe = Nordic Whites
Southern Europe = Mediterranean Whites
Central / Southern America = Latinos
Lyndsy Fonseca is pretty but not that bright. Someone should inform her that Portugal is in Europe and not elsewhere.
Some people keep referring to Cristiano Ronaldo as the typical Portuguese, which is not realistic. Cristiano Ronaldo is from the Madeira island which stands to Portugal as Hawaii stands to the US.
Besides, Cristiano Ronaldo is 1/4 Cape Verdean, which is part of Africa. Last but not least, race has a broad variety of looks, so let’s not define an entire population by the looks of one single person, otherwise we might as well say that all Americans are black because Oprah Winfrey has nice dark skin! Dahha?!
Christiano Ronaldo is 1/8 Cape Verdean and not a 1/4. He is 7/8 Portuguese and actually even more than that since Cape Verdeans have Portuguese ancestry. If he took 23andme, he would be over 90% Portuguese.
As for Lyndsy, she simply said she is built like a Latina. She didn’t say she is one.
Haha, true.
She was in Kick-Ass. I love that movie.
Ethnic, may you do a page on Aaron Johnson? He was the lead actor in Kick-Ass. He played Kick-Ass, and he’s married with child.
100% the truth.
Jennifer Aniston, Lindsay Lohan, and Katy Perry aren’t white either.
oh great another f—— idiot. Ok wiz, answer me this where does the Anglo-saxon come from?? Saxon right?? Where from the Saxon?? Saxon right?? and where from that and that and that.. ? oh yeah genetic mixture history of Europe, and then Neanderthals. That is why there is not such a thing, and the race term of white cames from the people you are calling non-white that are white. Quit being arrogant and ignorant and realize that some natural items like teeth in your mouth, eyes in your socket, or the clothes you wear cover your body, cannot and I repeat CANNOT change in any other way. same here. race cannot change unless another race and there are only 5 races in the world, Asian, Caucasian, Arab, Negroid, and Aborgine/Amerindian.. Are they Arab? no.. Are they Asian?? no.. Are they Aborgine?? no… Are they Negroid? no.. Are Caucasian?? natural fit.. think about it. (tab twice on the side of the head)
she doesn’t look like christiano ronaldo thats all i’m saying.
dude you seroiusly have no life. always commenting on people comments. you must suffer from inferiority complex.
what ever race you are.
