where is the Spanish on her mother’s side from?
“On her mom’s side she is a descendant of Marie Theriault who was descendent from Ferdinand and Isabelle threw their daughter Juana.”
That’s interesting, she uses a lot of Spanish influences in her music and image and she likes Spanish men.. I wonder if she knows about this part of her heritage
She also slept with alot of black men & might she have some black in her?
Justin Bieber is also a descendant of Marie Theriault. http://gw.geneanet.org/loiseau?lang=en&pz=jean+francois+gerard+roger&nz=loiseau&ocz=0&m=RL&p=marie&n=theriault&l1=12&p1=justin&n1=bieber&l2=9&p2=madonna+louise+veronica&n2=ciccone
