James was born in Nova Scotia, the son of Ambrose J. Shea and Margaret Lily MacPhee/McPhee. Cecile was born in Nova Scotia, the daughter of Patrick “Padé” Boudreau and Elsie Aucoine/Aucoin.
Mia’s maternal grandfather is artist, photographer, filmmaker, musician, and producer Lee Jaffe (the son of Morris Jaffe and Harriette Frechtel). Lee was born in New York, to a Jewish family. Morris was born in New York, to parents from Russia, Jacob “Jack” Jaffe and Goldie. Harriette was born in New York, to parents from Austria/Poland, Nathan Frechtel and Selma.
Mia’s maternal grandmother is Brazilian actress Maria Gladys (the daughter of Armando Ribeiro da Silva and Rachel Valente de Mello). Maria was born Maria Gladys Mello da Silva, in Rio de Janeiro. Armando was born in Rio de Janeiro, the son of João Gomes da Silva and Candida Ribeiro. Rachel was also born in Rio de Janeiro, the daughter of Raul Baptista de Mello and Georgina de Mello Valente.
Mia’s great-great-grandmother Georgina was listed as “morena” on her death record. Through her line, Mia is descended from Henrique da Porciúncula Vilella, who was born, c. 1814, in Rio de Janeiro, and from his wife, Miquelina Benedita do Loreto, who was born, c. 1813, in Rio de Janeiro. Henrique was listed as “pardo.” Miquelina was born into slavery, the daughter of Ana de Benguela, who was from Africa (possibly Angola). Mia’s Portuguese ancestry include Azorean.

Her Brazilian side is definitely mixed race (African/Portuguese).

@passingtime85, sounds like @andrew side-account. LMAOOO
“Mia doesn’t have a typical look, it’s uncommon for most ethnicities”, she is not mono-ethnic and who are you to judge that? like, WTFF
“All Andrew said is that he made an observation”, no, sweetie-pie,
him* (or you, I don’t even know) assuming that a girl has black blood because she looks “weird” is veiled racism.
Nothing else.
Point-blank, period.
You defending this type of comment as innocent, just shows how pretentious and misinformed you are.
Educate yourself before playing devil’s advocate. LMAO
No, me and @passingtime are two different users, but I agree with him, I just made an observation. When I searched “Mia Goth” (no idea who she was then) on Google Images I thought she looked like an albino or something with such facial features.
Anyone can judge everything and anything they want. Much of reality is perception and subjective, there’s exceptions to everything, but we as sentient beings can make broad assumptions that can usually accurately describe measurable phenomena.
Mia to me has unusual eyes, and not her eyeballs or her iris, I mean her orbital socket and frontal bone and/or orbital rim and eyelids are unusual looking to me, they’re uncommon for a person with her pigmentation.
Racism by your definition seems to be if someone thinks people of different heritages, have different phenotypical qualities. Many of the contributors and commemtators of this website and many people on earth are racist by that measure.
Andrew isn’t malicious, he made a comment, he used the word weird, maybe he should have said odd, uncommon, atypical, whatever suits your fancy, but she doesn’t have a homogeneous look. Btw he didn’t assume “black blood” because of her look, he assumed it because of her look coupled by the fact large swaths of Brazilians have mixed heritage. “She looks atypical, I wonder what is her background, o part Brazilian, maybe she has some racial admixture, that would make sense.” Perhaps this is an egregious error on his part.
@passingtime85, don’t dissociate, @andrew was very emphatic about linking her unusual appearance to her African roots in previous comments.
“Anyone can judge everything and anything they want.”
Excuse me? lol
I don’t know where you heard that, sweetheart, but not here and not making racist comments.
And don’t make assumptions about what I say, I don’t need a man trying to minimize or generalize what I say, thank you.
Again, you trying to associate what you believe to be “unusual” about her “her orbital socket and frontal bone and/or orbital rim…” with the black portion of her (her only non-European ancestry), just shows how clueless you are.
Yes, racist, whether you want to accept it or not.
@passingtime85 “Mia to me has unusual eyes, and not her eyeballs or her iris, I mean her orbital socket and frontal bone and/or orbital rim and eyelids are unusual looking to me, they’re uncommon for a person with her pigmentation.”
I don’t know where you’re from, but I don’t think you’ve ever seen a person of Slavic origin in your entire life. lol
The Jewish part of her father is from Russia and Poland, it’s common for people of Slavic origin to have eyes like that (plus frontal bone).*
Associating this with non-European roots just shows how clueless and ill-informed you are.
@passingtime85 you better find better ways to ‘pass’ your time!! LMAO
Thank for the insight. English is not my first language, so I may sometimes occur in some controversy.
“but not here and not making racist comments.”
Anyone can do anything that they’re physically capable of, reactions and consequences are to follow, but it doesn’t mean it’ll stop a person’s behavior if they want something enough.
“And don’t make assumptions about what I say, I don’t need a man trying to minimize or generalize what I say, thank you.”
I can do as I please, as you can as well.
“with the black portion of her”
I didn’t assert that, I just said she had a weird look.
“Yes, racist, whether you want to accept it or not.”
As if that’s some sort of end all, be all discussion ending assertion. We’re all racist at some level. This website shouldn’t exist if heritage is of no consequence.
“Associating this with non-European roots just shows how clueless and ill-informed you are.”
Slavs have a pinch of central Asian in them, sounds like you’re misinformed.
@passingtime85, quoting you again:
“Mia to me has unusual eyes, and not her eyeballs or her iris, I mean her orbital socket and frontal bone and/or orbital rim and eyelids are unusual looking to me, they’re uncommon for a person with her pigmentation.”
You’re saying her eye shapes are unusual for “Her pigmentation” while people, Slavs, who are white have eyes like that.
So you are assuming you talk —- and are incoherent.
Because it’s not uncommon for people of “her pigmentation”.
Including the possible installment of Asian Ancestry as a pretext for your pile of —- is kind of cringe.
You seem to be constantly including elements to justify what you said and you seem to have lost your reason a long time ago.
Many ethnicities have intercontinental influences, but you seem to be constantly trying to find an excuse to justify yourself. You’ve been arguing with people for days and trying to keep your pile of nonsense and inconsistency grounded.
And this whole “we’re all racist on some level” thing and finding that acceptable just goes to show how disgusting, pathetic, and poorly aged you are.
Just take your —- and leave. lol
In the words of that fella:
“The world thanks you”. lmao
Twilight, honestly it’s not a common look even in the Slavic populations, which makes sense, because trace heritage of Asian origin is like a 5% or less in any given Slavic population. At those levels the look is uncommon, not wholly bizarre, but unusual enough notice.
Ancestral lineage and genetic flow due to migration explains phenotypical characteristics, is that not the case?
Justification implies I’m defending an action deemed unreasonable. I’m not justifying, I’m literally looking at history and information and using it them as basis for reasoning. If you have new information and/or more accurate information I’ll incorporate it to my knowledge and rearrange my views.
Do different people that have roots in different parts of the world have different features? Are looks directly tied to a gradient level as you trace your finger along a map? Do features start to blend and morph through admixture? These are simple enough concepts to comprehend and measure. Surely there’s pockets of exceptions, like Andamanese, there’s exceptions to everything, but they’re the rarities, not the principal.
Vabbè insomma sei dislessica non ce la fai a capire. Era uno scherzo di Follers dato che Madman viene dalla Svezia, Bearboy è in parte norvegese e Manila credo viva in Scandinavia. Questo è quanto quindi prova a capire se ce la fai. Un bel gioco dura poco.
