  3. Princess says:

    I think his father was a Native Mexican with mostly Aztec ancestry. That explains why he looks really Mexican. The same with Jessica Alba. She looks purely Mexican.

  4. AnonymousPerson says:

    He looks 100% Mexican to me. Maybe it’s because he’s half Italian and Italian aren’t really white. They have Arab and black admixture in them. That’s why some Italians are dark and look Mexican.

      Italians* I meant

    • Jordan says:

      Italians are 100% white, except sicilians, who are probably 95%.

      Italians are not part arabs or African. The majority living there are of European decent. I think many people think all Caucasians are pale, brown and blonde hair. It’s actually quite a diverse range of ethnic groups.

      Beside Germanic and Norman migrations, minor but significant settlements of Slavs (the so-called Schiavoni) and Arbereshe in Italy have been recorded.

      The geographical and cultural proximity with S. Italy pushed Albanians to cross the strait of Otranto, especially after Skanderbeg’s death and the conquest of the Balkans by the Ottomans. In defense of the Christian religion and in search of soldiers loyal to the Spanish crown, Alfonso I of Aragon, also king of Naples, invited Arbereshe soldiers to move to Italy with their families. In return the king guaranteed to Albanians lots of land and a favorable taxation.

      Arbereshe and Schiavoni were used to repopulate abandoned villages or villages whose population had died in earthquakes, plagues and caresties. Albanian soldiers were also used to quell rebellions in Calabria.

      Major Slavic colonies were in Friuli, Veneto, Marche, Sicily[100] and throughout the Kingdom of Naples (including Apulia, Molise, Abruzzo, Calabria, Terra di Lavoro and Basilicata)[101]

      According to a consolidated tradition of historical studies, there are eight waves of immigration of Albanians in Italy, to which must be added: the movements within the territory of southern Italy and the latest migration ( the ninth ) in recent years.[102] A remnant of the descendants of these Albanian colonists, still speaking an Albanian language, has survived till the present day in many areas of Italy. Their numbers are between 80,000[103] and 260,000 people.[104][105]
