I do believe I read that her mother is French Canadian to be precise, and has some Canadian Amerind through that background. You're thinking of Angelina Jolie's mother.

Mike what obvious? That their thousands of Black Africans brought to mexico by the Spanish,come on man be realistic now.
The Mexicans do have a percentage of Negroid DNA,i forget the exact,but its their.
Well this topic ran its course I think,and I dont want to sound like I'am beating a dead horse,but she has an obvious Negroid influence,now whether by its her Father's or Mother's side or somewhere down the line, really isnt important,its their none the less.

In some pics Alba looks very white Med-ish, in others she looks like she might have some remote SSA heritage. (I think the same can be said of Jennifer Lopez, BTW.) I believe she's Puerto Rican (not 100% sure - defintely 'Hispanic' though). Whatever she is, she is incredibly hot.  I personally don't think she looks Med in any of her pics. She just looks mestiza to me. I agree she could have some Sub-Saharan African admixture, but she looks mostly mestiza.

While some Mexicans have African DNA, there's in fact no evidence to suggest that Sicilians have any sub-Saharan African DNA markers. I see nothing unusual about Joe Torre's look, he would fit perfectly well on mainland S. Italy or the Balkans. Nick Turturro is atypical for a Sicilian and his family most likely just has considerable Arab/Berber admixture. Some Gypsy admixture could also serve as a valid explanation for his look.

I just feel like I should correct any misinterpretations I see, just as anybody else should feel free to do about his/her ethnic group. Seriously though, what you probably saw in me was some Arab or Berber admixture going by my somewhat fuller lips and thicker eyebrows. I don't doubt I could have some of that in my background despite what the purists may say.

LOL, I was only kidding around Buddy, you know that, hehehe.
Your Silician genes utterly dominate your phenotype, right down to the low forehead.

The same amount as the Sicilians just look at Joe Torre and the Turturro actor. That's incorrect Gambler. While some Mexicans have African DNA, Well yes ,very few Mexicans might have African DNA. CRIMSONGUARD said all. Just because their was slaves in Mexico. Thats like saying all white Americans have African dna buddy> there's in fact no evidence to suggest that Sicilians have any sub-Saharan African DNA markers. gambler> ive seen a few DNA test were a very tiny % of Sicilian do have like 1.2% african DNA.

Well ok, if we get down to it we can always scrounge up a few individuals in every ethnicity who have markers from other racial groups due to past human migrations, invasions, and just simple gene flow, but usually a percentage of 1.2% won't affect a given person's phenotype.

You know, looking back, I've changed my mind. I do think there is something sub-Saharan about Jessica. I think you were right, Crimson, though I still don't know what it is other than the fact that she has very rounded features and a mulattoid complexion.
It's possible her father was ethnically diverse himself-- perhaps a mulatto or a zambo or a castizo or whatever. Without any pics, we'll never know.

Gambler aside from being a smart ass,your numbers are off,which tells me your dishonest aswel. Their has only been 0.65% of Negroid DNA found in Sicily,this is extremly negligible amount, its also the same found throughout Europe.Regardless it has no bearing on Sicilian genetics,if it did all of Europe will have the same problem. Britain has 1% Negroid DNA,and Portugal has the highest. And I never said "all" Mexicans have negroid DNA,can you read?
