Who is less white?

[Comte Arnau]

All of these celebs share one thing in common. But the question for you -specially for New Worldlers- is: who looks less white to you?

I've always wanted to make a thread like this. :D

[Ibericus]

Chuck Norris, he is the one that stands out most

[safinator]

3 from the top row.

[Pallantides]

Cher would look the most foreign in my country, while the others would blend in better, Chuck Norris have some features wich might seem a bit off but nothing that would make him stand out that much in a crowd, so my vote is for Cher.

[Lábaru]

Val Kilmer.

[Rouxinol]

Val Kilmer.

[Rosenrot]

Cher, at the first look.

[Östsvensk]

Blond guys would not fit in Southern Europe? What a surprise. :thumb001:

To be serious, my vote goes to Cher. Val Kilmer and Chuck Norris would probably have comments about being "part Saami" a little now and then, but not anything really off.

An alien with blond hair is an alien. Some people like you give too much importance to hair color.

What does it have to do with the thread? :confused:

So Cher would be less white than the part Saami for you, is that right?

T' was a joke due to Southern Europeans saying that Norris and Kilmer would be seen as less white.

Cher would be called or seen as "blatte", "svartskalle" (simply means "wog" or "dago") or just "immigrant" occasionally, while the other ones wouldn't.

[Treffie]

All of these celebs share one thing in common.

They all claim to have native American ancestry?

Does it mean that black hair is perceived by Northerners as less white than partly Mongoloid eyes?

[Sikeliot]

Cher. She doesn't look Native American at all but the thing that is most striking is her Armenian ancestry.

[Östsvensk]

Does it mean that black hair is perceived by Northerners as less white than partly Mongoloid eyes?

I'd think it is about equal, but the black hair is more visible than the eyes to the average and untrained eye. Most do not recognize funny eyes, as far as I know.

[Comte Arnau]

Exactly. Cherokee, more concretely.

It's not just hair colour but also her features overall wich would be exotic here, A person who is very dark featured, but is still fully caucasoid would be considered less white than a "chinky"-eyed light pigmented person in Scandinavia.


Dark hair in itself is not considered less white in anyway though(at least not in Norway)

[Contra Mundum]

Norris, Kilmer and Cher

[Odoacer]

Cher, Chuck Norris, & Val Kilmer.

[Blossom]

Cher and Chuck :)

[Lithium]

Cher always looks like an alien to me.

[GeistFaust]

Chuck Norris stands out and always will as having an very exotic look for someone of Northwestern European descent.

[Pallantides]

I have met some Norwegians who look simillar to Kevin Costner, I was a bit surprised that he had Amerindian admixture.

his sort of apperance is not uncommon in the viken area:

Same on this side of the Atlantic in any of the States.

Cher

[Wasek]

Val Kilmer.

http://cinemascope35mm.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/val-kilmer.jpg

for me he's only badly tanned, that skin texture is typical of those very plain person who burn their skin. He's red skinned!!

My vote goes to Cher. She is Amerindian and has the bone structure to show it.

I would guess any admixture is going to be slight. Costner looks about as NW European as anyone can, IMO.

[Arbonit]

I dont know why, but i think that Carmen Electra look less white here!

[Hess]

There is no "more" or "less" white because it all depends on the region im question. For example, Cher would probably pass better in Greece and Malta than Kilmer, while Kilmer would be considered less foreign than Cher in Sweden or Norway.

[Pallantides]

Val Kilmer could be a Swedish Hockey Player.:D

[Comte Arnau]

All of them are pred. Caucasoid with minor Cherokee ancestry (less than 1/4). What probably makes Cher a bit different from the rest of the group is her paternal Armenian descent.
