miley knows she doesnt have any indian in her she needs to stop lying to herself.
UGLY! HIDEOUS! I CAN’T STAND YOU! ugly man…dang
I don’t really understand why people don’t believe she’s Cherokee if she says she is. Obviously she isn’t half of quarter, but she can totally be 1/16 or something. It’s still a small part and it’s real, even though it obviously doesn’t clearly show on her looks.
Because she’s an attention whore like Britney Spears who also claimed to be Native American. Also it makes sense that celebrities get payed by Marxist Jews to say they are Native American to continue their anti-white propaganda.
interesting pov
lmfao since when is 1/16th or 1/32 Native?
Seriously. Wayyyy to low to ever be Native, she wouldn’t even qualify for enrollment in most tribes in North America.
Plus, there’s no proof to her claims, or documentation, and she is like every other 99% full blooded black or whites who claim “Cherokee” As their tribe when it is simply not true.
Everyone from the South claims to be part Cherokee. *eyeroll*
@leslie2 I didn’t mean 1/16th or 1/32 would mean she could qualify for enrollment in a tribe or anything… I didn’t mean that I thought she would be “officially” Native in that way.
I just thought I’d give my point of view of not understanding why sooo many people don’t believe her if she says she is part something, even if it is not verified. Look, I’m from Finland, I just simply didn’t know about the whole history of Whites and Natives in America, but I’ve since educated myself a bit. I didn’t understand why people wouldn’t take someone’s word for it if they say they’re something.
But yeah, obviously it might just be a family myth or something. But I still don’t think anyone should go saying that she most definitely isn’t Native. We can’t be 100% sure. Like we know her family better than she does.
I wouldn’t approach it with such a negative attitude. But maybe if you’re Native, you might have reasons to. What do I know. Just an opinion of an outsider.
Everyone claims to be a small ounce of Native American for some reason. Honestly, if they want to be Indians so bad they should put some paint on their faces, and grab a bow and arrow. Honestly, the “Native American” claim gets old. I don’t think it’s true 99% of the time either. I had an uncle (married into the family) that claimed he was Native American. Turns out he was completely full of shit. A lot of people don’t realize that if you can prove you’re even a little bit Native American the federal government will cut you a large check. There’s a monetary interest in it.
She can pass for Turkish
Yes she does she looks very Turkish.
also looks Latina/Mexican
Also she might pass as Inuit
LMAO
With her blue eyes?
Lmao please, the majority of Turks are swarthy and olive toned like Near East people. Miley looks entirely Northwest European.
