Her dad is Venezuelan and African American (thus looking kind of AfroLatino anyway), and mom is Irish.

Ok, I am not an expert on telling apart American Biracials from Afro-Latinos/as. But she looks like she has Iberian influence, which I am guessing is likely to be the main Euro contribution in Afro-Latinos.

I read that Mariah's father was AfroCuban, and they only claimed Venezuelan to hide their Cuban roots out of shame and anti-Cuban sentiment, but her family was listed as being from Cuba and not Venezuela.

Tbh, I think she looks Moroccan, since we talk about North African Berbers a lot recently.

I can see it.
