I redid the thread since this is more informative.
I still say she looks odd for any European country.

The most non-euro she looks on the last photo

I don't know, she's always looked weird to me. Like that girl from "Parks and Rec". They play white people on TV but I don't think they really are.

[Sikeliot]

I'd like to see if any European here thinks she can pass in their country. When you compare her to my avatar photo (a typical south Italian) you can see she doesn't even fit there, which means if she can't it eliminates much of Southern Europe with it.

She looks clearly mixed race in fact she looks tri-racial in some pictures:

She looks like a Latina.

Su, in an old world setting where would you place her?

There used to be Sicilians living in Tunisia who then moved back home after living there a few hundred years. I wonder if they mixed with the Tunisians while over there and then brought the genes back. If so it'd explain some of the more 'interesting' looks.

My problem is I cannot imagine her being a Middle Eastern woman nor a European woman, she looks mixed, okay I will go for North Africa. But she doesnt look Moroccan nor any other NA African nations particular either.

Ok anyway my vote will go to NA African countries although she fits better in New World than in Old World.

I bet on money she's got some SSA and some Asiatic heritage.

OR she's got some sort of Amerindian heritage that gives her a pseudo SSA influence since Jessica Alba got also some tri-racial vibe although she's half European and half Latina without any black background.

Her mother is at 3:03 here.

4:02 it shows her parents, 4:11 her sister.

her father looks exactly like Bob Saget from Full House.
And she looks nothing like either parent.

I'd place her in Italy with no second thought, there's nothing non-euro in her.

She looks very non-European, and not Italian. If you doubt that, I can get any Italian poster to come in here and say the same thing.

Her father looks Italian, so does her sister.

What's non-euro/non-italian about her?


Does she look more "exotic" to you than Maria Grazia Cucinotta?

Everything. She looks mixed race.

[Aquafina]

Leah Remini is Sicilian and Ashkenazi. Her father, the one who looks like Bob Saget, is Sicilian, and her mother is the Ashkenazi one. She's exotic-looking.

Her mother doesn't look exotic. Neither does her father and sister. Interesting.

Yes. I don't know where she gets her look from because her mom looks Ashkenazi and her father looks normal Dinaro-Med Sicilian.

She doesn't look like her parents.

[Sikeliot]

Her sister looks just like she should given her parents (and IMO more Sicilian).

Leah Remini looks like a new world mix like Melissa Gorga (who doesn't look like her parents either).

I thought both of them looked kind of like black admixed Berbers.

Either way they are atypical. The exception not the rule.

[MobyD]

I wonder if she could pass in the Levantine? Maybe not as typical, but I doubt she would stand out too much...
