Being Asian really wasn’t anything until I got to high school and was modeling all the time, and it was important because it intrigued people. Black people definitely didn’t claim me before. They were like, “Light skin over there, she’s just not for us.” [Laughs.] It’s all perception. The other day, I was at the drugstore and this girl in line was like, “She’s next, the white girl.” I’m not white. I’m not even close.

She keeps asking me why I 'count myself as black… And why does Barack Obama?' My answer (for Sen. Obama, at least) is 'have you seen him?' But she won’t let it go. 'Is your father annoyed that you deny him?' My dad is white. I interject. 'Let’s conference him in,' I say. 'Listen, he married a black woman, he has six black children. He’d be the first person to tell you I’m black.” "The questions, to me, reveal more about the asker. This (white) reporter surely doesn’t know a lot of black people, or she wouldn’t be struggling so hard. She’d know black people come in all hues...'
