A Proud Latina
Filed under: Latinolicious > Jessica Alba > Fergie
All the speculating can cease.
The Black Eyed Peas' Fergie is indeed a Latina.
“Yes, I have Mexican in my ancestry,” Fergie tells Latina magazine. “My Dad's grandmother was born in Guanajuato. I’m very proud of it; that’s probably where I get my fire!"
The mag asks her why her Latina background has been so ambiguous. Fergie answers, "I don’t go around claiming it big time because there are many more full-bred Latinas that are out there to represent.”
Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba, you reading? Be a little more like Fergie — proud of where your family comes from!
Even if it's just your dad's grandma!

Give that lady a taco!!!!!!!!!!
You go Fergie! Looking good.
JA's p's come from the USA..nothing wrong with AMERICAN pride.
Answer me this…why do people always have to shout from the rooftop their heritage, then claim you're a racist when you aknowledge it?
Ah, so that's where she gets her skankiness.
eyo
why do so many people care where a person is from? why is it an issue at all?
FIRST!

Shut up Perez… Who care about anyones heritage. They are actors/singers etc because of their talent, not their race.
and leave Jessica Alba alone. What's any of it have to do with you?
btw.. i'm part cuban and i WISH you'd stop talking about you being cuban cause you make us look worse than anything castro could ever do!
probably tenth by now yeah?
australia loves u perez
Man, that is one beautiful woman. I love Fergie.
Are you fucking kidding me? Jessica Alba said almost the EXACT same thing, but you bashed her for it. BOTH of them simply said they don't overclaim their heritage because there are others who are more latina than they are. Alba said the same thing, more or less. You just didn't like it coming from her. You can be bitchy, Perez, but at least admit that you're being bitchy.
Will someone please tell me why Perez calls her Jessica "Don't Call Me Latina" Alba??
Of course she's latina didn't she grow up in Hacienda Heights? I thought that she had already told everyone she was part Mexican? Well regardless it's nice for her to be proud.
fergie wants me bad she was overheard to say that bathog gives me a wide on
You're racist, Perez.
Gross!!!!! I was born in Guanajuato! Fuck that bitch!
She's NOT Latina. Why should she exploit her dad's grandmother heritage? That'd so FAKE and dishonest of her. Fergie makeup is 99.9999% White European.
One should take pride in THEIR OWN activities and accomplishments. Being "proud of where your family comes from" is insipid. You are an ass, "Perez."
Latino isn't a race. So she's not dissing a race, she just doesn't identify with the mexican culture. If Jessica identifies more with her White mother's culture then that's her problem.
SHUT UP
Jessica Alba is a proud American. Perez go practice your racism in Cuba.
Viva mexico but ummm I don't believe her
Love that!!! I always thought Fergie was annoying but this is making me like her a lil bit. Jessica Alba is a Bitch and she is not proud of her heritage fuck her!!!

Jeez! You are boring us to TEARS!!!!!
Who cares??? My great grandpa was Irish…I'm VERY PROUD of him, and to be an AMERICAN. I don't walk around wearing shamrocks.
Perez, you have the mentality of a 7th grader. Grow up.
Shut the fuck up, Perez. It would be more hypocritical for someone to say that they're "proud" of a background if they don't know much about it. If I were born in California, and my great-grandmother is from, oh, I don't know, Brazil, I wouldn't go around claiming to be Brazilian, especially if I don't know much, if anything, about the culture, because that would just be hypocritical.
Who the hell cares? I hate how you constantly put Jessica Alba down for her not shouting through the streets that she's mexican & proud. It's just how she is, how she was raised, and how she chooses to be. OF ALL PEOPLE, I WOULD THINK YOU COULD RESPECT THAT. You're a MAN, so why don't you ACT like one? You're basically saying that because she's latina she has to follow a certain guideline, so why aren't you following the "natural" way's of men?
I'm part Latin and I love it!! You go girl!!
My friend told me that she saw her profile with hot photos on ____i n t i m a t e m i n g l e .c om_____. Is that true? Maybe… OMG, is she looking for new relationships? I'll check it out.
Jessica is a snobby bitch priss. Fergie is a sweet, down to earth coole person who works her butt off. unlike untalented priss ass Jessican who can't even admit to being latina! Love Fergie! ! I met her, she is a sweetheart!
What is there to be proud of? Beaners are dirty, foul subhumans created from God's shit. Due to their insignificantly small brains and lazy lifestyle, they can only take up easy jobs. Beaners are worthless creatures that need to be shot. Their skin is the color of shit for a reason. Brown pride indeed.
Fergie is so until her fame, I personally dont believe she cares where her ancestry is from.
This could just be a publicity stunt to get further fans.
I think its good she reocgnizes her background but in all honesty she acts nothing more than your typical American Girl
Fergie rocks ! Love her! She is one of the few real cool girls in hollywood!
FErgie is NOT pretending to be anything she is not.She could have used her latino background and exagerated it! She just admitted she is, and she is proud of it. She does not overdo it, and says others should represent more!
She handled it perfectly and never pretended to be more than she is.
She is the best!
I'm just glad that they use the word "Latina/Latino" and not "Hispanic"

i'm black.
my mom's brown.
and my grandma's white.
my husband's jewish.
and my kids are yellow.
i think FESTIVUS has a crush on me :]
Perez stop spreading the Hate & stop being as ASS.
Guanajuato is in Mexico. If that's were she is from, she is not, "latina"
WHY WOULD ANYONE EVEN ADMIT THEY ARE LATIN IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WHEN MEXICANS ARE GROSS AND ARE THE LOWEST OF ALL CRIMINALS.
THEY FIRST SNEAK INTO OUR COUNTRY AND THEN KILL OUR CITIZENS. OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD I CAN THINK OF 5 AMERICANS THAT WERE RECENTLY KILLED BY THESE MUD PEOPLE. THINK THE BLACK KID IN LA . THE 3 BLACK COLLEGE KIDS IN NEWARK, NJ. THINK THE MARINE IN THE ARMY WHO WAS RAPED THEN HAD HER BODY ALONG WITH HER UNBORN BABY BURNED AND BURIED IN THAT DAMNED MEXICANS BACKYARD.
YOU CAN ARGUE ALL DAY LONG THAT WHITE PEOPLE DO BAD THINGS TOO IN AMERICA. THAT IS THE WRONG ARGUMENT.
THE RIGHT QUESTION IS HOW MANY AMERICANS GO TO MEXICO AND MURDER AND ABUSE THE SERVICES OF THE MEXICAN PEOPLE. YOU KNOW IF ONE WHITE AMERICAN DID THAT THE FUCKING DIRTY MEXICANS WOULD TAKE TO THE STREETS AND DEMAND UNFAIRNESS IN BETWEEN BURNING DOWN NEIGHBORHOODS AND LOOTING STORES.
“My Dad's grandmother"
so she is only 1/8 Latina who cares?She said that in the Latina mag she is trying to gain Latino fans.
And im sure you hate Alba for another reason than the "Don't Call Me Latina"
Perez-I don't think anybody really cares where people come from anymore (certainly not most of the people reading your website) - I don't go running around proudly announcing my British/French/Polish/Cherokee/Greek/Swedish/ Danish background because it really doesn't matter. Would u be insulted if some actress wasn't announcing her French or Polish heritage, as you are about Alba's (or any other person for that matter) not discussing their Hispanic roots ad nauseum. You come across as a bigoted as any white person who runs around getting mad at other white people for not proudly announcing their superior northern European heritage. Stop it. You sound uneducated and close-minded.
MEXICANS TAKE AND TAKE AND TAKE AND TAKE AND ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO THINK GOD WILL PROVIDE WHEN THEIR GARGOYLE HEADED WOMEN CRAP OUT MORE KIDS THEN THEY CAN AFFORD.
MEXICANS HAVE RUINED LOS ANGELES AND ARE SOON TO RUIN THE CITY NEAR YOU.
THEY ABUSE OUR HOSPITALS AND WE PAY FOR THEM WITH A HIDDEN FEE IN OUR HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS.
THEY MAKE US WAIT IN LINE AT THE ER WHILE THEY GET TREATED FOR FLU SYMPTONS. IT'S TRUE.
THEY FILL OUR JAILS UP.
THEY FORCE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE TO TAKE THEIR KIDS OUT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND PUT THEM IN PRIVATE SCHOOLS.
THE FUCKING MEXICAN KIDS HAVE LESS THAN A FIFTY PERCENT GRADUATION RATE. WHY BOTHER?
YOU CAN WRITE WHAT YOU LIKE BUT JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE FACES OF THE SHIT THAT FILLS THE LA TIME CRIME BLOTTER. YOU WON'T BE HATING ON WHITE PEOPLE IF YOU TAKE A LOOK.
AMERICANS SHOULD BE JUST AS OUTRAGED AS I AM THAT OUR STUPID POLITICIANS GIVE THESE ANIMALS SANTUARY WHEN THEY ARE RUINING OUR . NOT THEIRS COUNTRY. THESE ARE FACTS!
WHAT THE FUK IS WRONG WITH HER FUKING EYEBROWS?!…. THEY LOOK LIKE CARROT TOP'S —- I DEMAND A SEPARATED AT BIRTH
I just want to say that I hope you realize one day that there are other movie stars, like CAMERON DIAZ, that are technically more latino/latina than Jessica Alba and hide it 10 times as much as she supposedly does. Do a lil reaserch sometime and you'll be suprised how many are out there.
I like fergie. That doesn't count. THATS HER GREAT GRANDMOTHER. That's not even a quarter mexican. She is white point blank. You just have a father that has a mexican grandmother. She could have tried to learn something about her heritage but I feel her. Latina isn't the only thing she is mixed with. SHe has Irish, and Scottish blood. That's a crazy mix.
What the hell is there to be proud about? Get over yourself.
PLEASE, THIS IS ALL YOU GOT PEREZ?
WHO GIVES A CRAP?
UM, I GUESS THE LATINO COMMUNITY IS PRETTY DESPERATE IF IT'S SOMEONE WHO'S ONLY 1/8 MEXICAN THEY'LL CLAIM AS "LATINA". LAUGHING MY ASS OFF!!! DESPERATE! PEREZ IS DESPERATE! SPICS ARE DESPERATE TO CLAIM ANYBODY.
He gets more posts on this topic than any other. Notice how often he does this latina bullshit thing. Americans are so sick of this Latin bullshit.
Who gives a rip about being latina. Perez you put too much stock in into that. It is as if you are almost inadequate about being a hispanic. Enough already
Who gives a flying fuck where you're from or what your ancestory is??? Why are you so obsessed with this, Perez? You're in America now, you're an American. Who cares about the poverty and shit you came from? Why don't I ever hear anyone say, "Yes, I'm part Mexican or Cuban, but I'm American now, which I'm really proud of, so it doesn't matter." The reason we never hear that is because you people are misguided liberals.
I wonder if you just like to joke about Jessica Alba over and over again. It is funny too me. That is cool that fergie is part latina (or 1/8) whatever. More importantly she is engaged to the hottest guy ever!! I don't care what his background is he is 100% hot.
I still don't know why this minimally talented hag is noteworthy. I could give a shit……
this is fuckin lame. who cares?
Her dad's grandmother was Latina - big fucking deal. That hardly makes her one. All of us have cultures in us from generations ago, but we don't go around acting like that is our main background.
that is because Jessica Alba is full Mexican she just denies it and says her mom is Danish which is not true how many times have you seen her Wikipedia biography change her race why is she is so ashamed of her Mexican roots how can someone say they ain't Mexican when your mother looks more Chicana than you dumb broad
Re: carl – Perez is obsessed with this topic cause he knows it makes people angry and they post. This is one Latin that knows how to make $$$$$$$$$$ regardless of integrity.
aww :]
well.
latina's do it better, thats a fact.
i myself am bolivian and so fuckin PROUD of it.
i love my culture, i love the way i look, i love representing it.
& jessica alba is stupid for not being proud of such a beautiful race.
dude, big fucking deal. she still totally bleaches her hair to be less ethnic. so what if she "admitted" that she's part mexican?? why is that even anything to write about in l.a.? it's a total non-issue.
alba has never denied being from a latin background.
Why does everyone think latina or mexican is a race? Mexicans be any color, and they can be from Europe too. Mexican is a nationality. grow up dumb asses!
i believe it Fergie sort of has a Spanish accent her dads granny is mexican so that kinda makes him somewhat of mexican i dont think their is anything wrong with bein mexican anyways their people just like everyone else not all white ppl have light eyes not all mexicans/hispanics are tan and brown eyed just look at perez so get over u racist fucks u dummmies
When do we, as individuals, become a race of our own? Everyone is something…who cares?! My father's grandmother was American Indian, and I have blonde hair and blue eyes. I wouldn't go around telling people I was American Indian. Unless it will help you get a minority scholarship, there's really know benefits of announcing that your great grandmother was Mexican!
UGH! fergie is not latina. her GREAT grandmother was mexican. my great grandma was russian. do i go around saying I AM A RUSSIAN? no!!! she is white. she doesnt speak spanish. she doesnt celebrate spanish customs. she is a white american.
Re: When the hell –
ooppssss! i meant "no", not "know".
YEAH, FERGIE IS A LATINA, BUT CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME ONCE AND FOR ALL WHAT THE F**K IS WORNG WITH THE FACE OF THIS DITZ? SHE LOOKS LIKE A FREGGIN FROG, SHE NEVER LOOKED LIKE THAT BEFORE, YET EVERYONE IGNORES IT.
HEY U RACIST LOSERS MEXICANS ARE NOT THE ONLY IMMIGRANTS WHAT ABOUT ITALIANS, IRISH, ASIANS, KOREANS, YEA THEY DONT COMMIT CRIMES RIGHT? BECAUSE THIER WHITE? A LOT OF MEXICANS ONLY GET REPORTED IN THE MEDIA BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SO RACISTS TOWARDS THEM WHEN MOST ARE HARD WORKING PEOPLE AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT MANY OF THEM HAVE EUROPEAN ANCESTRY & JUST LIKE ITALIANS, RUSSIANS, ARABS THEY COME HERE TO MAKE A BETTER LIVING THEY ALSO COMMIT CRIMES JUST LIKE MOST OF US AMERICANS SO STFU I HATE RACIST PEOPLE
thats right girl! represent! thats why fergie knows whats up, she used to kick it with homies back in the day probably…
why are people saying it's not true that she doesnt have Mexican ancestry like it's so bad are you people that racist shame on you all why does she have to be white because she has blue eyes? yes go to Mexico and you will see plenty of blue eyed Mexicans till then shut the hell up racists live in a shithole like Jessica Alba pregnant out of wedlock but that's how most White people are right? have babies out of wedlock to keep a no good loser man LOL!
Re: get over it u stupid asses –
PEOPLE ARE RACISTS BECAUSE WE DON'T LIKE BAD BEHAVIIOR. GET IT DUMBASS?
Re: lisaaaaa – Why does she have to represent? Like we need another Mexican around. Pleaassssssssse!
I am part Swedish. When will someone throw a party for me?
Mexicans are the bottom of the barrel and other "latins" agree. Their behavior sucks and their gross woman can't even control their young animals at Target.
They have no class at all period.
You bash Jessica Alba for saying practically the same thing. Get over it already! We are tired of reading about your insecurity over your heritage!!!!!
its only her fucking dad's grandmother does not count for her old wrinkly ass everyone still sees her ass as white you know why she did not say anything before because she did not want it to fuck up her career. i'm a fucking dark skinned black woman but and my dad's grandfather was white. can i call myself white now???? i didnt think so
YAY!! Loves me some Fergie ferg!!
GOSH FERGIE FACE IS OLD N HARD
HOLLAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! Jessica should be ashamed!!!!
Let's hear it for all the Koreans in the house! Let's keep dividing up till we erase what it means to be an American! A holes.
So, does that make her 1/8 Mexican? Whoop dee freakin' doo.
i'm black irish yet i say i'm white. does this mean i'm denouncing my "spanish heritage" because i don't claim to be latina? leave jessica alba alone fucktard.
