white?


Anyone else notice the fact that her grandmother was white, her mother was white, her babies were white, and her cartoon thing in the beginning was white? I feel as though they were just telling us to ignore the fact that J Lo is not, in fact, white and just pretend she is.

I've said my piece...have at it.

I noticed it. It didn't irritate me, all her movies she either chooses to play non- Hispanic people. Or it's offered to her. I think she should choose an equal amount of latin as well as white ones.
Look at Zoe Saldana- she's Dominican & she portrays Blabk women . That taking roles away from Black actresses. You gotta realize in Hollywood they group everyone Non-white as 3 groups(Black, Latin,or Asian ) in 1 group

Such an ignorant post. It's people who have your mentality that keep racism and stereotypes going and keeps people from reaching their full potential because they are always being stereotyped and labeled. "you don't have blue eyes and blonde hair? you're not white!!" "oh, your grandma has white skin and you have tanned skin? YOU MUST BE ADOPTED!" how ignorant and irritating.

I have very fair skinned family members and I turned out with olive skin... what does that make me then? NON WHITE? Do I need to find a new race? do I need to be stereotyped now? Geez, GTFO.

I missed the memo of OLIVE/TAN SKIN become an official race.

Who cares? Jlo has White European Blood in her anyway. Why are people so determined to keep this made up racial divide crap etched in stone?? Get out of here, you race obsessed moron!

Walking through the cow pasture of life you are bound to step in some truth

SMH @ this whole thread. White people are always trying to claim our Spanish ancestry. That we're all natively white, we just speak a different language. Throwing monkey wrenches in our heads to confuse us of our identity, like the only real ethnicities in existence are Black and White. And everyone else in the middle is just "off-white", but still a footnote in the European category. I ain't white, and i'm not you. Stop putting that in my head.

If we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?

Well, obviously the dead beat dad who abandoned her is the one with the Latin heritage. Duh.
