SHE IS WHITE,SHE LOOKS GERMAN
She is triracial
she’s a dyke.
everyone is gay in these series, nothing against.
i hate Glee
She is so annoying. She barely has blk in her.
but why does that matter if she “barely has any black in her”? she only said in an interview that’s what is in her blood, what’s wrong with that? i didn’t hear her say she identifies as a black woman.
Her dad can be black Puerto Rican or a majority black Puerto Rican
