    my thoughts exactly, these dudes take rumors and run with them

    SINCE THE DAY HE WAS BORN. He is part black and part Asian. Foxy's grandmother is Chinese, on her father's side. In order for her to have a Chinese grandparent, she would mean one of her parents is in fact Chinese or part Chinese. The same with Tyson Beckford, Kimmora is of a black father and Japanese mother.

I have always knew about Naomi Campbell being biracial:half jamaican and chinese. But I cant believe that Foxy,NeYo and Pharrell are biracial too. I heard a rumor for years that JayZ was half black and filipino.Yet he clearly has african features:kinky hair,african nose and lips.

    If you are 1/4 or less. They are no more mixed than the majority of black people.

How Deep Are You Digging Into The Bloodline? Naomi, Neyo, Foxy???

» by C'mon With That BS!!! 7/19/11, 20:56:pm Profileview profile | Reply

@C'mon...agreed...I always thought that Neyo, (not so)Foxy, and Naomi where straight up Negroes!.....seems like Bossip is reaching a bit!

Some of these folks (Chanel Iman, Noami, Ne-Yo, etc) are only a FOURTH or less Asian...

You could have at least put up some fractions or a description on the bottom of the page

Samoan blood can be traced to asians of taiwan and papuans, but we're talking about 5 thousands years ago or more however depending on the samoan you ask they will have diffrent answers Before you hate on my comment remember this is not an opinion of mine it is merely info i got from research so if it is wrong then the source is wrong not me

Some of u y'all r really ignorant......samoan IS asian!!!!!!!!!!

    whoever thinks a Samoan is an Asian is a dumbfark! im samoan we are polynesians aka pacific islanders you stupid idiot!!! i might aswell call african americans somalians!!

      @ Jake....for the record somalians are Black ppl; and if they reside in America, then that will make them African American

...... Like so what who really gives a fu$$ about who is mix wit what~ geesh black negros r so simple minded arguing about nonsense (who mixed who not) get a life, crackers r sitting back laughing at u silly people go at each other

Lol! You just brought back memories with that comment. People talking bout they're mixed because their grandpa's father's father was white, when no one even asked.

@Anna Nicole
What made u click your mouse on this headline if you didnt give a fu$$?

Over 50% of the people living in this world are bi-racial. Check out your ancestor's roots. You will be surprised at your findings. Genealogy is something powerful!

NEWSFLASH: Naomi is Black/Chinese.

I am deeply sorry if i have offended any samoan people out there with my comment but i was truely unaware that they get offended by being asked if they are asian as i said what i posted was not my believes it was merely research from a site i looked at however now that i research some more i realise samoans are a proud polynesian race so agian i am sorry i do not descriminate against any race be it black white somoan haspanic asian ect i believe the color does not make the man/women who they are does peace and god bless

» by N8 7/20/11, 21:41:pm Profileview profile | Reply

    I went to wikipedia and read the same thing linking Polynesians to Asia about 3500 yrs ago. Some may get offended but its history. So dont beat yourself up.

Foxy Brown is not have asian may have 1/4 asian but not half. Naomi Cambells mom is half asian wich makes her 1/4 also. The Rock is Samoan and Black which makes him half asian for those of you that commented and said he is not half asian. Samoans are considered asian pacific islanders. Kelis is Asian, Puerto Rican and african american. And Chanel is also only 1/4 asian. And if Naomi campbell and chanel can make the list with only 1/4 asian heritage were is Tyson Beckford because he is also 1/4 asian.

The rock isnt asian. He is half black and half samoan. Samoans are pacific islanders or polynesian not asian. Yall needa stop sayin we are descendents of asia because it is not scientifically proven and until it is we have our own cl*****ification POLYNESIAN!!

    @Naleo eating fried rice with pineapple stuck in it, isn't Asian. Yeah right.

IN THE END, IT DOESNT MATTER WHO IS WHAT, BECAUSE THE CL*****IFACTION, AND SEPERATION THAT NOT ONLY THIS COUNTRY HAS , BUT THE WORLD, IS WHO HAS GREEN AND WHO DOESNT.

Hip Hop Wired is really reaching. The only ones truly mixed with Asian are Kelis, Amerie, Kimora, Chanel Iman, and C*****ie. All the others are a reach. The truth is most blacks in America are not 100% black. My great great grandmother was half white and half Indian. Does that make me mixed? Um no.

» by Not Mixed 7/21/11, 22:55:pm Profileview profile | Reply

east Indians are also Asian i know....my mother is black and east Indian and my father is Puerto Rican. Samoans are in fact Asian. I have been mistaken for Samoan by Samoans, until one of them heard me speak Spanish!.lol I p***** for other ethnic groups but I consider myself BLACK!

I know both her parents and they are both jamaicans, who live in streatham, south london. I saw her mum yesterday near the National Theatre.

@7lady why should they have to deny their roots or heritage to make YOU feel better about it? You sound stupid. If people choose to embrace all sides of their heritage it has nothing to do with them touting it to make themselves look better. It sounds like you have some insecurities about being "just black".

Signed,

Happily Just Black.

Who ever writing this bs really need to do their home work befor making up false identities on people..misleading the public on who these people really are.

i thought the rock was hawaiian and asian. not black and asian. i was just looking some stuff up on him last night.

another thing, does kimora lee likes her black side more or her asian side more? because it seems she wants to show she's asian more than her black side.

» by lach. 8/10/11, 16:42:pm Profileview profile | Reply

does kimora like being black more or asian?

» by lach. 8/10/11, 16:44:pm Profileview profile | Reply

@lach I think she probably likes being Kimora more than being black OR asian. You are who you are. It's like asking "do you like your mother's genetic contribution to your right thumb more than your father's genetic contribution to your left ear?" If you say something good about your thumb, does that mean you have a problem with your father?

She IS more asian than most black folks, but she's also more black than most asians, so I guess your answer would depend on who's in the room.
