It's difficult to see a picture of Gabrielle properly as she doesn't normally show her right eye to the public without wearing a patch, or with her hair covering half her face, or sunshades due to her eye problem.

I found 2 images without her eye patch but her skin has gone much lighter in these pictures. Maybe she bleached it or it's been photo-edited?

I don't think Hispanic is a race, but I think Shola Ama, followed by Desree, Jamelia, Beverley Knight, Gabrielle, and I think the one with the least European admixture would be the darkest and first one (Joan).

[Tooting Carmen]

I don't think Hispanic is a race, but Shola Ama and Jamelia and possibly Gabrielle may have some mixture. I think the one with the least European admixture would be the first one.

I mean specifically those who'd fit best in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and the Caribbean coasts of Colombia and Venezuela.

Sorry, I don't know to be honest, but I think Jamelia (the way she looks only in the bottom picture of her) reminds me of a person I knew in London who said she was from either Cuba or Trinidad (although the person I knew was several shades lighter, but had similar features), although I forget which exact country she was from although it was definitely either Cuba or Trinidad, sorry.

[Sikeliot]

Going by Dominicans and Cubans, and coastal Colombians (as I have not see enough truly "black" Puerto Ricans to judge);


Gabrielle
Jamelia (looks very Afro Cuban)
Shola Ama
Knight
Des'ree
Armatrading

The more Senegambian and Nigerian influence and the more signs of mixture, the more Hispanic Caribbean they look.

Anyone else?

Having a Spanish sounding surname means nothing when the Haitians and their descendants in the DR are known for changing their names. Obviously this doesn't mean all nearly or fully SSA Dominicans are nonexistent LMAO.

Luis Pie was part of that team in the link btw. an is well-known that he was of Haitian descent. There's been a few others.

They look Jamaican.

[Tooting Carmen]

They look Jamaican.

So none would look typical for coastal Colombia then?

They would stand out in my city because the black component is mostly diluted. These look pred. SSA.

What about in Choco?

[samario]

What about in Choco?

Don't associate their looks with Chocoanos. Then again, these singers look like they put some effort into their looks so they might be a bit manufactured. Their facial traits are too somewhat different imo compared to the Chocoanos I've encountered.

Desiree, Gabrielle and Shola looks the most, the others less.

[SilverKnight]

The only ones whom can kinda pass is Shola and Jamelia

Do the rest look too distinctly Anglo-Caribbean? Out of curiosity, how many of them had you heard of before?

Yes they do. And sadly never heard of em' ^^...

Do most Anglo-Caribbeans stick out in the DR then?

[SilverKnight]

Do most Anglo-Caribbeans stick out in the DR then?

a vast majority, yes

[Tooting Carmen]

a vast majority, yes

Is it more due to them tending to have darker skin, or is it the features that differ more?
