    For how long will americans insist on this fake “scots-irish” ethnicity? The more accurate term is Ulster-scott and/or northern irish, or just use English and Scottish, because that’s basically what it is, just british people of english and scottish descent who used to live in Northern Ireland…

    I’ll admit I thought she was half Japanese when I first saw her.

    I don’t think i have ever seen a fully eurpean/caucasian person (she has Jewish but still i will get to my point which will reveal what i am about to say) which is that she has oriential (central asian) slit eyes but she isn’t asian at all.

    I really thought she was part chinese at first. She really does look chinese sometimes

      In all honesty I just watched Scream 5 and I’ll admit I thought she was half Asian. I mention this from time to time on this site. Merchant Ashkenazi Jewish men did bring East Asian brides back to Europe from their travels on the Silk Road over 1000 years ago. It’s been seeded into the AJ DNA fabric, rare but it’s still present.

        Where have you mentioned it so I can have a read?

        I was thinking that my comment would get no attention so to have your reply was a welcome surprise.

        Thing is, check out the British comedian, Michael Mcintyre and you will see how Chinese he looks. He even jokes about it.

          I’m sorry, I don’t keep track of which profiles I’ve commented on. I’ve commented on dozens upon dozens of pages. Google search isn’t particularly good at finding user comments for this site, so I can’t direct you, my apologies.

          The infusion of East Asian DNA is really old, 1000+, which predates most of the surviving records. So the main remnants of things like having Asains ancestors would be either handed down by family lore, or evident in genetic makeup.

    Her maternal grandmother had also consistent Scots-Irish and Dutch ancestry. And German, Welsh and Scottish: https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedigree/landscape/MWG8-R1Q

    The Hillhouse line is the same of Brad Pitt though it’s unclear if there’s further relation.

    She had also a surname in her family tree which is “Possibly of American Indian origin” according to Ancestry.com: https://www.ancestry.com/name-origin?surname=omohundro

    Anyway, not of European origin in any case.
