Ten Hot Multiracial Entertainers
1.
Takeshi Kaneshiro
We probably are cheating, since we said we’re skipping the big names… and Takeshi Kaneshiro is a huge star… but we just can’t miss the opportunity to see him. Plus, he’s got a new movie out and all. Wu Xia (aka. Dragon), in case you were wondering.
Often known as a Japanese actor (for his name), he’s actually more active in the Hong Kong film industry. But Kaneshiro is part Okinawan/Taiwanese. And no ladies… the rumors that he got married were, apparently, false. He’s still single, so you still got a chance.
Sarah Shahi
Most of you probably know her as Carmen de la Pica Morales, on The L Word — but truth be told the sexy Latina wasn’t played by a Latina at all (though we do know people think Spaniards are Latinos)! Sarah Shahi is Iranian/Spanish — she did grew up in Texas… so maybe some Latino culture from there.
After two seasons of the now-cancelled Life, having a baby (yes, she got married to Van (from Reba) — can you believe that?), she’s now working on the show Fairly Legal.

How about that list?
Who are your favorite entertainers of multiracial backgrounds?
Did we miss any?
Can anyone tell us more guys?
Because we can come up with tons of girls, but that would be unfair to half (or most of our readers)
You know we’re doing this because commenting on how hot people are usually gets you hits, right? LOL Why choose Barbara Mori, though? Outside of La Mujer de mi Hermano, I’m lost as to what she’s done.
@amy, I wanted to have a Latina in it. She seemed like an interesting mix, even though she doesn’t look thaaaaat Mori. Just like Meisa doesn’t look Panamanian.
Takeshi-Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!! All other names become irrelevant once you stick him on a list. haha! (Yes, even the hot – fellow mid-western boy Daniel Henney pales in comparison)
@Jenna, that’s why he is #1 so people don’t go blocking our other picks.
With latinos it’s difficult to tell. We’re a damn dump bucket of racial ancestry. Just Puerto Ricans have Taino, African and Spanish as a base mix for Criole. BUT after that came a shitload of Europeans (FROM EVERYWHERE in Europe) seeking opportunities in the new world. THEN came the US Americans and they’re a mix of Europeans already @_@ Sorry I guess I’m kind of anal about this multiracial thing xD I’d say ALL Latinos are a mix.
You know, Okinawa is like a breeding ground for half-lings. There’s Meisa, there’s the Lufkin sisters, Olivia and Caroline, who are German-Okinawan. My Japanese proffesor (yes she’s a star xD) is Okinawan and she married a Puerto Rican. It’s probably the strong military pressence in Okinawa that’s caused this. Also I think Miyavi has Korean in his ancestry…. There’s Krystal Kay she’s Jamaican-Japanese. Uuummm…. Tsuchiya Anna I think is something like Russian-Japanese…
OH! I don’t know where stand-up comedians fall in this mag xD They have HBO shows and DVDs and stuff…. ANYWAY!! One of my faves: Steve Byrne! He’s Irish-Korean. I LOVE *eye roll* Steve Byrne. Oh! Oh! Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. According to Wikipedia: “His father is of Black Nova Scotian (Canadian) origin and his mother is of Samoan heritage.”
That’s all for now *bow*
@Roxanne, Oh yeah – The Rock is part Samoan alright. Is he hot, though? We’re talking hot, universally or most people’s hot.
I didn’t know that about Miyavi!
LOL about Okinawa – most Japanese descendants in Peru are from Okinawa. My cousin is part Okinawan, part Chinese. Though, from our part of the family (the Chinese part), we’re supposed to be “royal” blood according to my grandpa’s tales LOL – and on our grandma’s side, they keep telling us we’re part Russian hahaha.
On my dad’s side of the family, I’m part Chinese, part Spaniard, part African American. So I’m probably like 5/8 Chinese (royal or not), 1/16 Russian (something which we don’t truly believe), 1/16 African American, 1/8 Spanish… and 1/8 mystery meat.
Thank you for including Kuroki Meisa!! OMG that woman, gee golly
@LinzerDinzer, ooh – we were kinda short on picking men for this list. Any suggestion? xD
@LinzerDinzer – Meisa is something, but she needs to do better interviews.
@Ghost Writer, tell her also to not dance with needle heels.
oh, Tahmoh Penikett (from Battlestar Galactica) is part English, part Canadian aboriginal (White River First Nation).
