Jennifer's from Chicago

It was a lie lol but I was trying to make a point, here this lady who didn't even entertain the idea that she's from USA, let alone she's black. So, I lied about Jennifer coming from the swamps of Louisiana, just to fuck with her and put a shock wave into her system.

Don't even try to tell her that Mariah is black too "Oh lord rolleyes you guys think everybody IS black!" evillol I kinda miss her to be honest.

Does anybody knows that Jessica Alba's husband is bi-racial. He's the son of Hill Street Blues actor Micheal Warren, who is African-American.

Exactly, "Mexican" is a nationality, not a race, and it's made up of lots of races.

I enjoyed that, where's it from?

It was a series called Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends, where the guy in the clip used to spend time with people usually from some kind of quirky subculture or fringe organisation (survivalists, swingers, self-help gurus, gangsta rappers, etc), bringing out the more absurd and amusing side of what they were into and kind of humanising the people involved, but also playing the faux-naif smartly enough to show up the more shady characters. Truth be told, he was probably a little out of his depth in the episode this clip was taken from (on Black nationalists in Harlem), particularly with the timing, but that scene cracked me up, and overall the people I respect emerged from it pretty well. The full thing's here, anyway: http://video.google.com/v...0492046311 smile

Well I'll be blessed. lol So she has more of her mama's blood than her daddy's. hmmm Because her mom's half Danish and French Canadian. But I can see why people would be taken aback by their DNA. Tina Turner thought for years she was mixed Navajo and Cherokee because her mama was. Come to find out she was 66% Black, 33% European and only 1% Native American, meaning she may have more of her dad's blood than her mom's. Ain't that a bitch? lol

What I'm wondering from the people who thought she was is...

Is it because you wanted her to be black, or part black, as it were?

Because you didn't?

Because you found her attractive and that's what you wanted her to be?

I'm just wondering, because as a white guy, I don't see it all. I think she's fine as all get out, though, and it wouldn't make any difference to me if she was half, or one quarter, or one eighth ANYTHING. lol

She's about 80% fine as hell regardless of her melanin, I know that. But as someone said, when she speaks, she's 20% unlistenable. lol

lol I actually think she's become more tolerable in that regard as she's gotten older. Her acting has much improved, as well. I couldn't watch 'Dark Angel' with the sound on. She was just AWFUL back then.

The bold print may be the answer as to why you don't see it(and that's cool). I grew up with many a clone of her back in the day. They were either latin or black.
