Daphne Joy Works Her Curves on the Carpet

Check out these pics of Filipina-Puerto Rican model Daphne Joy at the Black Men Magazine Cover Release Party at Area Night Club in West Hollywood, California earlier this week.
Before I started writing for F-Listed, I never realized Filipinos and Puerto Ricans naturally gravitated towards one another. I was surprised by the influx of Filipina-Puerto Rican models out there, including sisters Dawn and Justene Jaro, as well as some other chicks whose names escape me.
My brother and I are convinced we have Asian blood in our Rican butts, but my family denies it through and through. Once I have some money to blow, I’d love to get a DNA test and know my heritage. It’s supposed to be 100 percent Puerto Rican from Spanish (Moors) descent, but I’m pretty sure some Asian DNA snuck in there at some point.
In any case, I think this chick Daphne Joy is a beautiful blend of ethnicities, with her beautiful jet-black hair, high cheekbones, well-formed shelf and rump roast. I wonder if she speaks more than just English. That would be hot!
What do you think of Daphne?

Justene………….. where are you!!!
p/eople, as well as relatives in my own family, can deny it all they want but you’re righ;t the similarities are there. Puerto Ricans as well as Filipino’s both share a strong Spanish influence/heritage as well as east Asian ancestry (although it’s more distant for one group). Btw, the conquering Moors were mostly Arabic. That’s why in Spain and especially in Italy, the people in the southern regions tend to have a more olive complexion and darker/black hair. It’s the honest truth about the past and how we evolved; the blending and mixing of cultures, ideas, and yes DNA.
Yeah, my father and I both have an olive complexion with super dark brown hair and a naturally athletic build. Meanwhile, my mom (whose mom I’m convinced has some Asian in her) isn’t even 5″ tall and is super tiny and more of a white-yellow complexion. It’s funny, if I had money like these celebs I wouldn’t be spending it on hundred dollar purses and frivolous items, but things like that DNA test are completely awesome. I’d also buy that $200 can of oysters that was on an episode of Anthony Bourdain. I can’t even begin to imagine what $200 canned oysters taste like, but I’d love to find out!
What’s your heritage?

Wow what a beautiful girl. It’s nice to see someone with a more exotic look,very pretty.
I think Daphne Joy and Chanta Patton should never be allowed to pose without one another again.
