Mariah Carey appeared on George Lopez's "Lopez Tonight" on 12/16/09. Here is part 2 of the interview. She gives George the results of his DNA test and .
These comments about Mariah race blows me. I’m not even her and I’m tired of it. She’s half white and half black. She can choose to be whatever she feels comfortable identifying with. Let her be
black people can identify other black people. its really not hard. and you think she's confused not all black people are dark skinned a large majority of african americans are very light or fair skinned
@multiracialheritage I"m Multiracial and have always considered myself so.. We would like to be acknowledged as a unique entity, especially here in America in the year 2011, it's the 1800's any longer.
the reason nobody talked at that one moment was because Mariah wasn't done talking about the lineage. she mentions her racial backround in ALOT of interviews.
@multiracialheritage I remember that quote. I would not want to leave out the parent who raised me either. I can imagine how that would make them feel.
I really hate how people try and say Brasilia and Portugal are both the same when they are not! Portugal is the head of brazil they speak Brazilian Portuguese . We don't .
exactly the Definition of MESTIZO: a person of mixed blood; specifically: a person of mixed European and American Indian ancestry and this includes ALL OF THE CONTINENT OF AMERICA. .....People be proud of YOU and were You come from celebrate it
@multiracialheritage I agree. Black people are always so adamant about a mixed person saying they are just black, as if the black side will always and automatically accept them without fail. This is not always the case. Many have been rejected by family, and/or others within the black community solely b/c they are mixed.
@piccolo933 If that's how she feels comfortable identifying, that's okay. I feel people of mixed race(s) are made to choose a certain ethnicity. Mariah also has Venezuelan heritage. Her biological grandfather's name (father's side) was Francisco Nunez and when he moved to NYC changed his last name to *Carey*, a name take from his grandfather. Mariah has Multiracial heritages herself.
yes it's a culture but I'm saying that Latinos are a mixed race people; Latin Europe? I dont understand that ; Latin is an old language and the progenitor of Spanish, French, Italian etc.; I'm just explaining why "Latino" is not listed in any DNA testing b/c it's a mixed race; In DNA testing, there are Native American, Asian, African and European - that is why George's reflected African (W. African specifically) and European and some East Asian which is unique...yet George is Latino
@leon8chicken So what I'm 50% African 20% European and 30% Native... I'm black. If Mariah wants to claim black because of her lineage she can do that like many other people. Black, Brown and Native pride!
@TheAdroitly first you dont know her father at all second her father is black hes black and venuzuelan - there are venuzuelan who are full black without mix
People riding on this Venezuelan thing with Mariah are failing to realize that Slaves were brought to Venezuela. Her father had Venezuelan ancestry by way of his mother or grandmother, but was that Spanish Venezuelan or Slave blood Venezuelan? Mariah is of Irish and African descent, with maybe some European descent by way of some Spanish/Venezuelan blood. She said it clearly. In America if you have "Black" blood, that is what you are, we didn't make this up...no matter about skin color. THE LAW.
according to US documents today it is. everytime they ask a person on a document for their "ethnicity" Latino is listed separately to avoid false classifications.
so what about her percentage in each ethnicity,was it revealed?..I think she is between black and like British Irish northern European,and maybe like 9-15% Venezuelan or like Latin...she seems really happy here though,what year is this?
The problem is just the way ppl want to use the word "latino", in europe all the countries which has the basic languare come from latin (spanish, italian, french and portughese), are the latinos of europe. In south america, (all the south america from mexico itself till the last part or argentina) are considered latino americanos, becasue where they laguage come from the euopean latin countries. There just exist latino americanos and europena latinos. Probably is just an american wrong way to intend the word. Here in italy we do know that.
That's not what "Latino" means in this context. In this context it is a synonym for "Latin American". The Spanish, Italian and Portuguese people are not Latino. They are European.
The european part is wrong. yes most are descendants from a Spaniard. BUT there's many french, Italian, Portuguese etc etc in all of central and south America. mixed and remixed. Many of which changed their last name too. kinda of like how blacks in the past in nUSA were given English last names. Doesn't mean they have direct or mixed english lineage right? they don't.
@liongod888 yea but its weird how he only has 4% african because a lot of latinos have african in them...like for example im black/dominican and i know i have african from my dominican side
This is the problem with this country! People worry too much where the hell you come from! How about you worry more about the actions of your character and not of something so stupid as race! We are all humans and if we weren't so hung up on stupid race, ideologies, and religion! We wouldn't be in such a mess, as a civilization, as we are now!
lol she asked "where is the latino in you?" Latino is a mixture of West African, European (mostly Spain) and native American...about 12 million slaves from West Africa came to South America and the Caribbean so a vast majortiy of people from those places have some percentage of West African ancestry...and NOT EVEN 500K West African slaves came to the US; it was more like 400K! so compare that to all the millions that came to S.America and the Caribbean
No, Italians are not "Latino". "Latino" means "Latin American". It's referring to the people in Latin America, not Europe. Dictionary definition of "Latino": tinyurl(dot)com/c7v45jp Also, that video you put up is incorrect. Picking out some white people in Latin America doesn't make all of Latin America is white. Most Latin Americans are not white.
The problem is just the way ppl want to use that word, in europe all the countries which has the basic languare come from latin (spanish, italian, french and portughese), are the latinos of europe.

@liongod888 i guess everyone hates whites so by saying Spaniards arent white it calms his audience down but it doesnt make it true. hes mostly mestizo mostly white and native 4% is barely anything.i love how she ask the latino sections of you LOL fail
Yeah i know Venuzelan is a nationality..so i'm just gonna say Mariah is White or caucasion and part black/African-American lol. yes but why does color matter,i don't know it's just how society labels people.
lmao her dads grandmother was venezuelan, if thats the case im muitiracial too. every black person greatgrandmother or father is mixed lmao. she know she black. lol
Right, it doesnt mean mixed, I know the meaning of the word, I'm just people in the "Latino" culture are mixed, which is why Hispanic is not an actual race
Most likely it is true that Jessica Alba does not have any black ancestry. But if by some chance she did on her dad's side it wouldn't show in her the same way if George Lopez had a kid,that kid wouldn't have detectable black because George's 4% would have filtered out. But most likely it is true that Jessica Alba doesn't have any black.
She did not want to do it because she knows very well that she's going to have a very large number of European ancestry in her and she is actually more like 60 to 65% European along with only perhaps 20% or maybe just under 30% of African and in addition she might even have a little bit of Native American through her father side along with the possibility of having some sort of South Asian mixtures because a lot of Venezuelan men who are mixed with African also interacted with south Asian during the trade of slavery. When I saw a picture of Mariah Carey's father he does not look 100% of African origin sorry Mariah but you are afraid to take the DNA ancestry test because you know very well that you are not as black as you think you think you are because you're not.. for example somebody like Beyoncé would have about 60% African-American along with some native American and French because of her mother... therefore even though she has a little bit of those other mixes Beyoncé would be considered black because of the majority of the 60% African-American that she inherits but that's a whole different story for Mariah Carey
Chrissy Perivancich I mean that could be true. It also has to do with sales and success because once her black fans know that she isn’t black as she portrays and tries to think herself to be, they would lose interest and stop following her and a good percentage of her fan base is black
It’s really none of your business “Torres” how Mariah CHOOSES to identify. In the video she clearly explains why she chooses to identify as black because of the American “1/16 drop of black blood” law. She is more than 1/16 so shut your pie hole!
@@tamlynn786 Damn what in the world is wrong with you lol 😂 i’m just saying she is half white her mom is 100% Irish while her father is Mixed he’s not even fully African-American because his father is from Venezuela that’s why his last name was Nunez and they changed it whenever they moved to New York. I’m only stating facts sweetie. I can understand that she can choose to identify with whichever race that she wants but I’m only being honest that whenever you see Mariah Carey you see much more Caucasian genes and there is nothing wrong with that.
"IM BLACK" George is funny lol
These comments about Mariah race blows me. I’m not even her and I’m tired of it. She’s half white and half black. She can choose to be whatever she feels comfortable identifying with. Let her be
Black is beautiful..😊
I love her :).
George is: European,Asian,Native-American, and Black
Mariah
is:Irish,AfricanAmerican ,Venuzelan
black people can identify other black people. its really not hard. and you think she's confused not all black people are dark skinned a large majority of african americans are very light or fair skinned
"i'm black!" loool george
"My Mother is Irish, she's like the queen of Ireland. She loves Ireland and that's all I can say. Irish, Irish, Irish, Yea Mom!!!" - Applause
"My father is Black and he grewed up in Harlem, served this country"- crickets, crickets, crickets -_-
"His fathers mother is Venezuelan"- Applause
she didn't want to go through with the test, she didn't feel like she needed to
@multiracialheritage I"m Multiracial and have always considered myself so.. We would like to be acknowledged as a unique entity, especially here in America in the year 2011, it's the 1800's any longer.

any mariah carey fan needs to watch her movie glitter idc wat people say it was a good movie
Mexican,Columbian, Venezuelan etc. is nationality.
For example you can be Criollo or Native, but you'd still be Mexican in both cases.
I really hate how people try and say Brasilia and Portugal are both the same when they are not! Portugal is the head of brazil they speak Brazilian Portuguese . We don't .

Gloria Aceves on
Gloria Aceves ex
Gloria Aceves try
Mariah was scared like "fuck 80% white" LOL
@multiracialheritage I agree.
Black people are always so adamant about a mixed person saying they are just black, as if the black side will always and automatically accept them without fail. This is not always the case. Many have been rejected by family, and/or others within the black community solely b/c they are mixed.
Yep! We multicultural/mixed race get it from both sides.
It's almost as humans are a bit tribalistic, no matter where they come from🤷
She didn't want to do it. That's too bad,we would have like to see.
@piccolo933 If that's how she feels comfortable identifying, that's okay. I feel people of mixed race(s) are made to choose a certain ethnicity. Mariah also has Venezuelan heritage.

lol george jumped for joy when he found out he is 4% black. \o/ wooooohooooo lolz
okay, i didn't know, thx xD)!

LOL George is so excited to be black
@multiracialheritage That's great......Multiracial Pride.
Where Can You Get One Of Those DNA Kits?? Please Awnser!(:
lol when she was like "in this country black" someone in the audience was all heeeeyyy!!! LOL.
@TheAdroitly
first you dont know her father at all
second her father is black
hes black and venuzuelan - there are venuzuelan who are full black
without mix

@whoelseknows Yes you're right, it's not everyone.
@Gentilejedi
venezuelan people are black too
Latino is no mixture, it's a culture. There is Latin Europe and what mixture are they?
@liongod888 I agree Being Latino is a Cultural heritage NOT a Race.
in this country she is black listen from 1:17 to 1:35
according to US documents today it is. everytime they ask a person on a document for their "ethnicity" Latino is listed separately to avoid false classifications.
@piccolo933 you said he was black now you're saying hes white wtf
so what about her percentage in each ethnicity,was it revealed?..I think she is between black and like British Irish northern European,and maybe like 9-15% Venezuelan or like Latin...she seems really happy here though,what year is this?
What were the results for Mariah Carey?
The problem is just the way ppl want to use the word "latino", in europe all the countries which has the basic languare come from latin (spanish, italian, french and portughese), are the latinos of europe. In south america, (all the south america from mexico itself till the last part or argentina) are considered latino americanos, becasue where they laguage come from the euopean latin countries.
There just exist latino americanos and europena latinos. Probably is just an american wrong way to intend the word. Here in italy we do know that.
I find it funny how so many confuse ethinicity with nationality!
Venuzelan is NATIONALITY not a race!
exactly, and Latino isn’t a race but an ethnicity!
lol
@darun I am Portuguese my grandfathers family is from Portugal and WE consider ourselves LATIN.
Cleopatra was not Egyptian, George. She was a full blooded Greek, that ruled Egypt during one of the eras that Greece had control of Egypt.
@Gentilejedi
miriah calls her self black
That's not what "Latino" means in this context. In this context it is a synonym for "Latin American".
The Spanish, Italian and Portuguese people are not Latino. They are European.
you probably do not know what "latin" means...
Irish Irish Irish YAy mom! hahahahaha
The Latino section is just European mixed with native-American, which encompasses Inka, Maya etc. ...
Venezuelan is not a color. There are black folks in Venezuela. I've seen pics of her father. He's a brutha lol
The european part is wrong. yes most are descendants from a Spaniard. BUT there's many french, Italian, Portuguese etc etc in all of central and south America. mixed and remixed. Many of which changed their last name too. kinda of like how blacks in the past in nUSA were given English last names. Doesn't mean they have direct or mixed english lineage right? they don't.
gosh i wanna know my lineage too!
@1000gohead yeah you noticed that too...huh. God Bless America...anyway!!
@liongod888 yea but its weird how he only has 4% african because a lot of latinos have african in them...like for example im black/dominican and i know i have african from my dominican side
This is the problem with this country! People worry too much where the hell you come from! How about you worry more about the actions of your character and not of something so stupid as race!

Tell it!
@sandinyourshoes Thanks for the info
How to get this kind of DNA testing 😊
I want to see my DNA result haha
lol she asked "where is the latino in you?" Latino is a mixture of West African, European (mostly Spain) and native American...about 12 million slaves from West Africa came to South America and the Caribbean so a vast majortiy of people from those places have some percentage of West African ancestry...and NOT EVEN 500K West African slaves came to the US; it was more like 400K! so compare that to all the millions that came to S.America and the Caribbean
@liongod888 Thanks for clearing that up for me....I was going to say, i thought he was latino.
nope that pretty much makes you Mexican, Colombian, Venezuelan etc...
Lopez is Cablinasian like Tiger Woods.
for the people that same it's not accurate is correct but it is really dam close
@neglectedurchin haha agreed she is so white
What the hell did she do to her nose?
No, Italians are not "Latino". "Latino" means "Latin American". It's referring to the people in Latin America, not Europe.

yes but why does color matter,i don't know it's just how society labels people.
she's afraid its gonna come out like 80% white, *giggles*
lmao her dads grandmother was venezuelan, if thats the case im muitiracial too. every black person greatgrandmother or father is mixed lmao. she know she black. lol
have you seen her mom
55% European. There's like 5 native races in Eurpoe wtf :/
@butterflywriter01
i know
You know, if you're like Amerindian+Spanish, that pretty much makes you mestizo.
You probably have Filipino blood.
@mrsolofeo
she calls her self black
53 likes! Wow
who cares
Right, it doesnt mean mixed, I know the meaning of the word, I'm just people in the "Latino" culture are mixed, which is why Hispanic is not an actual race
Sorry cant do it. For one that law was abolished and 2, my daughter is mixed. So I just dont exist in her dna at all?
Most likely it is true that Jessica Alba does not have any black ancestry.

How can you tell how much Latina she is? Well DNA can't tell you that. lol
@TenshiTamagoKidd15
no man

NOTHING. What the hell did you do to your eyes?
Social constructs don't quite say much about any Homosapienses.
