Oriane 19,617 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 I'm looking at recent pictures where she doesn't have a black style in particular but she still looks like she's mixed race, I don't know if it's because I'm just used to that thought ? I can't pinpoint what it is either. You popped my heart seams, all my bubble dreams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part we claim her as hispanic NOT Black. Are you talking about Zendaya ? Just yesterday I "found out" she was black on some Twitter comment, and today I suddenly learn that she's not ?

Killa 15,350 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Ive always been bit confused but you can see shes white. Shes def more dark skinned, must be some genes from middle east. But before talking appropriation, shes from the uk, not the us. She always had that style, i mean in europe its kinda normal. Just cause your parents are white, doesnt mean thats your background growing up. Ofc what her team does with it is another story. But you make it pass like its some plot when maybe its more the viewers fault than the artist itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
