My mother is black and my father is Filipino. I got the best of both worlds.
I don't feel I have to defend myself for being English or for being Irish, because, in a way, I don't feel either. And, in another way, of course, I'm both.
I'm half-Welsh, half-Russian. My maternal grandmother is Russian. I've very much a mongrel, which is good in a way because it makes me quite a blank canvas.
I come from a mixed background - my mom's black, my dad's white - and I traveled around the world.
It would be great if people could guess right off that I am Japanese-Finnish-American. But then I'd have to be wearing a kimono and pulling a reindeer.
Most of my background is Filipino and partly Chinese, but mostly Filipino.
I'm mixed, and I'm proud of that.
I'm, like, half Norwegian and half Italian.
My look is 'Poly'n'Asian' - part Polynesian native, part Asian warrior.
I'm a bit of a mongrel, really!
Winston Churchill was not entirely British. His mother was American, making Sir Winston part Iroquois Indian.
