*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.

@Splice of Life you seriously have issues native american/Filipina ???
Have you ever seen one ?? They are much darker and have completely different facial features
No, people think this is because she looks more exotic today, but look at old pictures of her, she looks like a normal white girl. But it is jewish .Filipinos and Native Americans don’t have big eyes like her.
Jews are Semites.
They are the same race but different ethnic groups
No me someone didn`t think this i think it was someone wrote that as a joke now i taught it was troll.And she got a tan that means she more exotic then ok.
Hehe you can only laugh at some silly people on this site.Don`t feed the trolls all the want is some argument there lives are that sad you can only pity them.
Very beautiful.
I hope people do know that Ukraine Is not Europe but part of Eurasia. Ive met many people from there that look like Lucy Lui.
I guess our American brains are not programed to think outside of the box when it comes to ethnicity.
Ukraine is in Eastern Europe.Of course you can get people that are of Asian origin there ..Eurasia is just the name of the supercontinent of Europe and Asia joined together.You saying Ukraine is Eurasia means Germany,France Finland ,Italy etc are all in Eurasia which is foolish it just a phrase that`s used.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasia
Of course Europe is just a little bump on Eurasia. But Ukraine is part of Europe, Europe goes to the Urals, that’s the border, + also the Caucasus and the Mediterranean in the south. There’s a little space between the Caucasus and the Urals, so Kazakhstan has a little bit of territory within Europe! Russia, obviously, has a big chunk of Asia as well.
Eastern Europeans are Europeans and they’re not Asians and they don’t look Asian, unless they have direct Asian ancestry.
I mean, I could say that Americans often look Asian just because there are many Asian immigrants in the US, same thing.
No Ukranians are all white ! And they are classified as Eastern Europeans similar to Polish, Belarusian, Russian etc. You probably know some Chinese or Asian Ukranian !
omg!!! lucy lui?? are you serious? i live in germany and here there are so many people from ukraine and russia! and believe me, the asian looking of them come from russia while the ukrainians are really handsome. they all look very easteuropean and the typical features are: light brown/dirtly blonde hair, green eyes, tanned skin (so hot!) and additionally, most have “russian ” noses (just like Putin)
