Edit: Sorry, I didn't know that Hispanic is a culture. I thought that it was a race.

Some of these celebrities are of mixed heritage.

Salma Hayek:



Jessica Alba:



Penelope Cruz:



America Ferrera:



Jamie Lynn-Sigler:



Jennifer Lopez:



Selena Gomez:



Shakira:



Eva Langoria-Parker:



Rosario Dawson:



Eva Mendez:



John Leguizamo - he's the voice for Sid in "Ice Age".



Edward James Olmos:



Marc Anthony - he happens to be the husband of Jennifer Lopez a.k.a. J.Lo

When you say 'Hispanic', are you including those from Spain or is it exclusively South American? Penelope Cruz isn't South American for example...

I thought Hispanic meant of "Spanish ancestry".
And Latino = South American/whatever

Makes me think of the people walking around with "Call me Latino, not Hispanic" shirts lol.

i don't think adriana lima has an ounce of hispanic blood, does she? unless you want to count brazilians as hispanic, which isn't correct.

anyway,

how about THIS GUY? biggrin.gif



guillermo del toro, director and genius


hot dang for enrique <3





i'm also a fan of paz vega; loved her in spanglish

I'm a big fan of most of these celebrities. It's nice to see Hispanic/Latin actors in Hollywood. Hmm, I don't see George Lopez up there... sad.gif

thanks giraffic

i actually expected Antonio Banderas to be first on the list.

and yes, Guillermo del Toro is pure genius,
although the last thing i would've guessed was that he was Mexican.

and idk, i like Selena Gomez smile.gif
she's funny, although she can't sing, and she's pretty

this postis kind old but I just want to clear things up (sorry for my english)!!! Antonio Banderas and Penélope Cruz are NOT latinos!!! coz they're from Spain

Latinos (latin AMERICA)= South América - Central América - North América (México).
spain is in Europe!! ..so they're not latinos

and yes, Adriana Lima is Latina (althought she doesn't speak spanish) she's Brazilian she's latinamerican !!

actually no. the term "Hispanic" is used to denote some relationship to Spain (whether through blood, cultural influence, etc) and also for peoples who are from Spanish speaking countries, thus both Penelope Cruz and J. Lo, for instance, are Hispanic but J. Lo is Latina whereas Penelope is Spanish....it's just another way of categorizing groups of people

but regarding the post itself, they are all so gorgeous! It always makes me proud to see a fellow latina/latino on screen (well.....actually any spanish speaking person laugh.gif )

Fez Wilmer Valderrama


Mariah Carrey (half)


Gabriel Garcia Bernal



Cameron Diaz (half )



Vanessa Marcil (half)



Alexis Bledel (yes, Rory is latina)



Mario Lopez



George Lopez


Martin Sheen (half)



Zoe Saldana


Ricky Martin


Benicio del Torro


Christina Vidal (Taina- Freaky Friday)


Benjamin Bratt


Joanna Garcia (gossip girl chick)


Michelle Rodriguez



Jessica Alba on this list makes me laugh. She goes around telling people she isn't latina, and basically rejected that part of her heritage. I mean, both her parents were born in the US, so I can see her point... sleep.gif
