Reminds me of Iggy Azalea
Iggy looks part Asian too.
Looks like an ethnic Kazakh.
Someone needs a tan.
why? Who wants to look like a wrinkled old prune in old age? Or get skin cancer?
Looks Eurasian
Definitely not. We have our own brown-haired people in Europe. :D
Her face is common in a region from Czechoslovakia to Bavaria to Switzerland, probably of Celtic origin, if you want.
No Asian at all?? She looks part Asian.
