why the long face?
must be weird for her father to have a kid that just looks like the mom only
like I bet they would look awkward in public as father and daughter, like he stole her lol
She definitely looks euro Asian. Clearly her eyes show that… either way that’s what she is. My neighbors across the street from where I grew up was a Jewish and Vietnamese and looks a lot like Maggie.
Always thought she was a nice looking woman. I think asian or mixed with asian are good looking people anyway. My childhood neighbor lived across the street and was Jewish and Vietnamese mix and they favor each other.
She looks like a Mestizo Hispanic.
