Three of Mila’s grandparents are named Boris, Roza/Rosa, and Yitzhak.
A 23andMe DNA test taken by Mila stated that her genetic ancestry is:
*96%-98% Ashkenazi Jewish
Mila has also said:
The amount of guilt that I’ve perfected the use of – already on my 3-year-old – is magical… I took a 23 and Me test, where you find out… what’s your DNA… and I’m thinking “I’m going to be exotic… there’s going to be something wonderful about me.” No, ya’ll, I am 96% Ashkenazi Jew. You know what that means? I’m inbred. I am really Jewish, you guys. There is nothing about me that’s exotic. I am a Jew. You know what that means? Guilt.

her birth town is in Bukovina
Yes , Ashkenazim came from Judea and we have both West Asian (Hebrew ) and Italian (Graeco-Roman) DNa. What’s ur problem ?
Facts dont care about your feelings. Facts are facts and these have been proven in peer reviewed studies. Jews are from the Levant and were shipped as slaves after the Judean Roman war to Italy first after the rise of Christianity we moved northwards from southern and central Italy to northern Italy eventually crossing the Alps to Switzerland, France, Germany and Austria. The first Roman Jews came to Germany in the 3rd century in cologne, Mainz. Also in the 8th century (Kalonymous family from Lucca, Tuscany) , also 10 th and 11th century. This is why the male line (Y-DNa) is middle eastern and the female line is Mediterranean overlapping with Sicilians, Sardinians, southern and central Italians as well as Cretans and Cypriots.
She is the most beautiful thing ever. Nothing is more beautiful than her.
Okay, I get it everyone is dying to know my opinion of Mila Kunis and I have to say she is one of the most beautiful celebrities out there. When I think about an attractive woman I think to myself, “Hey bearboy does this girl have a nice, plus size nose” I respond by saying, “OF COURSE” look at Abigail Breslin, Ashley Tisdale, Dianna Agron, Amanda Bynes, Melissa Rauch, Greta Van Susteren all very beautiful woman who can really rock that honker Smiley Face
You are antisemitic. The level of bigotry, prejudice and racism on this site is out of hand. ps get a pair of glasses, she has a TINY nose.
No @pookerella you hate Jewish people. Same with @Neil Tennant who attacked Israel on the Adam Sandler page.
@pookerella What the hell have you been smoking. He said nothing that was anti Semitic or racist. By the way, Mila Kunis is White. Jewish isn’t a race, it’s a religion.
Thanks @TheHelper! I love the Jewish people, the Jewish faith, and the Jewish state of Israel. My Irish Catholic mother would probably agree with @Andrew that I have a “fetish” for people of the faith but we are all different which is a good thing!
@pookerella should be banned. Her jealousy of Mila Kunis is a little too much
Judaism is a religion however, there are also Jewish ethnicities that share more in common genetically with each other than with the non-jews of the countries they lived in. “White” is a social construct that includes what society chooses to include in it. So Jews are “White” because society chooses to view them as “White”.
That being said, DNA evidence shows us that on the paternal line Jews are of Middle Eastern descent and on the maternal line they have a lot of southern European ancestry from the time of the Roman Empire. Jews from Poland don’t share DNA with Polish people, Jew from Ukraine don’t share DNA with Ukrainian People, etc.
Jews aren’t Jew because they practice Judaism. Jews are Jews because they are Jews.
True
Its an ethnicity you antisemitic hump.we Ashkenazim are genetically half Italian and half middle eastern. Before Germany we came from Italy and before that Judea.
Oh dear…again?
She wouldn’t be considered white in Ukraine.
Ukraine? No way.
Scandinavia, where people are albino looking with blonde haired, perhaps.
WHAT?!?
@lelo4 Yes she would. Jewish isn’t a race, it’s a religion.
Today she would be considered white but if you think Jews, regardless of which religion they practiced, were viewed as the same race as the rest of the population in countries like Ukraine for most of European history than you need to learn history.
Nah man you must not know, but there is a huge jewish and gypsy community in Ukraine, and they have been mixing with the native peoples from that place for quite sometime. Mila blends there quite easily, also she os tan in those pics her natural complexion is much lighter than that.
*she is tan
From what I see here in Europe where I live Ukranians are one of the most pale and Nordic Euroasian people in East Europe it’s atypical for them to be this dark and exotic seems a dark Romanian and Bulgarian somone from the countries.
Lol, absolutely false. Her features are actually pretty slavic in my opinion. Could easily pass in south Ukraine. Any thoughts andrew?
She is exotic, yes! Slavs are one of the whitest peoples of all
her skin tone is definitely exotic
Again myfellowwhitepeople don’t fart lies because you’re not European living here like me you don’t know us only a part of them the Centrals and the Baltics are so light but they have very Asian aka Mongoloid fratures they’re a mix of white Nordic and Asian, the combo the called Americans love so much cause they’re so over obsessed and in love&heat of Nordic and Asian races.
@l!ttletimmy
Thanks for asking my opinion. I think she is passable anywhere in Eastern Europe. Slavs can be heterogenous looking, you have blondes, brunettes and all in between.
andrew, could she pass in Romania?
Yes, but more in Czech Republic IMO
Lolol ann-drew your opinions don’t worth.
In your mind but the reality to me European is that she’s mixed she has the face of Baltic Slav but on dark version cause surely has part of non white as root.
I think she is very beautiful, I like the contrast of real bronzed skinned and hazel eyes :)
She has heterochromia, and one hazel eye, one green eye.
@Woogieboo She tans, that’s why her skin looks dark.
Exactly, she is actually quite pale, also makeup plays a huge role too, it can make you look more “exotic” than you really are.
