    She’s beautiful, but her racial complex annoys me!!

    Love her gown. She looks beautiful and almost flawless. It is stated her father is Dominican so is he black or white?

  3. Analena

    Looking at Zoe and her sisters it is obvious that her father was a dark-skinned man. Can we leave her alone with the race thing now. She has always said that she was a black Dominican woman and she is proud of her entire self as well she should be.

    A true beauty.

    Its obvious the educational system has failed so many!! Yes there are Blacks who just so happen to live outside of America! I still don’t understand how just because someone speaks Spanish some folks don’t consider them Black. Zoe has always said she is Black-no “racial complex” with her.

    SayItLoud! Zoe is BLACK and she’s PROUD! Good 4 u sister!

    stop trying to claim her. her parents are dominican, which means she’s dominican not black.

  8. REAL TALK - THE REAL ONE

    Most Dominicans are black , millions of African slaves were brought there to pick sugar cane. It is a predominately black country . Black Dominicans by far, outnumber the white and indian looking Dominicans.

    I have seen this chick on screen and she can not act. She is overrated and is being overexposed. NEXT

    I love her, and I am so happy about her success. She’s a charming, beautiful actress. She lights up the screen.

    Congrats Zoe! You’re beautiful and working hard making those movies =million$. Luv Ya! Xoxo

    My boyfriend is from France but he is darker than I am. He is black but speaks French. People are ridiculous. I hate that Hollywood only allows one top black actress at a time, that place is so racist and backwards.

  16. THATGIRLNICKEY

    I love Zoe & I love that she’s doing her thing. She’s a talented actress

  17. Ra-Ra

    I don’t understand why so many black americans and even some black latinos are confused about race vs nationality vs ethnicity. Zoe is clearly a black woman (race) who happens to be Dominican (nationality). Free your mind and the rest will follow…..

    this is the reason why we should all get connected and realize the truth that there is only one race and it’s The HUMAN Race… cause cant you be of asian descent and be born in liberia, west africa, and speak english, and live in an african culture? to that person, they are african…
