Mylène Jampanoï is a half French/half Chinese actress. Naturally, she has black hair, fair skin, green-gray eyes, and Asian characteristics with Caucasian tones.
What's cool (to me at least) is how versatile she can be with her looks. In photos of her when her hair is brown, she looks as if she's full-on Caucasian, while black hair makes her appear completely Asian (eye color aside). A few days ago I wondered what she'd look like if her eyes were dark, so I quickly photoshopped them brown. Without those piercing peepers, she'd look just like any other Asian.
Now it's been said that her father is a full-blooded Chinese. My questions - how did she end up with green-gray eyes? What color eyes does her mom possibly have? For some reason I usually assumed that offspring with features as strong as hers (eyes that light, prominent nose bridge [which isn't common with Asians....although maybe with Northern ones]) would only be about 1/4 Asian at the most. I've never once in my life have seen a half Asian (let alone full-blooded) with naturally black hair and bright eyes. It looks amazing and I'm fascinated by it.
I'm full Asian (3/4 Filipino+1/4 Chinese) with all the dark features, so I didn't get so lucky with the genetic lottery.
I know these are such n00b questions...I've done countless Google searches but to no avail. Feel free to shed as much light as possible on this. I'm all ears (...or eyes).
