Her family moved to the U.S. when she was seven years old, in 1991, settling in Los Angeles, California. She spoke Russian growing up.

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.

      She looks like a jew in every movie. many people can look many things and not be a race that you think.. like me I am italian mix and i dont look like an italian. but one thing is my family knows their heritage from hundreds to thousands of years. also, appearances can be different.. look at wentworth miller.. he is mullato and never looked like it until he got older.. tony danza is italian and looks out of this world hispanic.. I am just saying who cares..
