celebrities with filipino blood
after posting a comment at francis’s blog, i was googling around trying to verify if indeed grant hill’s mom was a filipina or not. in case you’re wondering, no, grant hill’s mom is not filipino. his mother-in-law (tamia’s mom) is half-filipino as what tamia wrote on one of her fansite’s guestbook (it’s there somewhere, just search for it).
i also found something equally interesting - wikipedia’s list of multiracial celebrities. listed below are those who have filipino blood (some, surprisingly, i only knew after reading the page).
- cory aquino, philippine president
- tia carrere, actress
- phoebe cates, actress
- natalie coughlin, olympic swimmer
- francine dee, model
- emm gryner, canadian pop singer
- nia peeples, actress
- lou diamond philips, actor
- jo ralston, model
- jose rizal, philippine national hero
- rob schneider, actor/comedian
- tamlyn tomita, actress
- lalaine vergara-paras, actress
Phoebe Cates has Filipino blood? I didn’t know that… Gee… n_n
