Jessica Alba has an opinion on…….Mexicans

Jessica Alba is on the cover of the July issue of Para Todos Magazine ,where she made some controversial comments that has some fans saying that she hates mexicans and latin americans.

“I’ve got cousins galore. Mexicans just spread all their seeds. And the women just pop them out.”

“My grandfather was the only Mexican at his college, the only Hispanic person at work and the only one at the all-white country club. He tried to forget his Mexican roots, because he never wanted his kids to be made to feel different in America. He and my grandmother didn’t speak Spanish to their children. Now, as a third-generation American, I feel as if I have finally cut loose.”

“My whole life, when I was growing up, not one race has ever accepted me, … So I never felt connected or attached to any race specifically. I had a very American upbringing, I feel American, and I don’t speak Spanish. So, to say that I’m a Latin actress, OK, but it’s not fitting; it would be insincere.”

“My grandfather was the only one in our family to go to college. He made a choice not to speak Spanish in the house. He didn’t want his kids to be different.”

    She is American with some Latin ancestry. It’s like a version of the ODR. where people of Hispanic decent, if they still have the Hispanic last name are supposed to identify as Latino.

    Personally, I don’t one drop people into identifying as Latinos. If she makes an idiotic comment it’s as an American, not a Latina. She wasn’t raised in our culture. We just keep on interviewing her because she has a Hispanic last name, is good looking and is popular.

    Personally I think she looks more hispanic than white….I hope she realizes that when she looks in the mirror! No matter the race one should always embrace their roots and hold their head up with pride. I myself am 3rd generation Mexican and am very proud of it! When she says that not one race accepted her…could it be because she in fact cannot accept herself….yah think!!!
