Wait, isn’t an immigrant a minority in the US? She’s not a poor women from the 19th century with no access to birth control, she seems to have some kind of pathological need for babies. I’ve learned SO MUCH about the BLM movement, about police brutality, and about internalised racism. glad it’s not just me. She literally claimed bias against herself when claiming people thought she was her kids’ nanny or used HER SPRAY TANNED SKIN to tell her own child, “Look, your skin is no better than mine.” She has convinced herself she is an immigrant. And if this were to be the case, she would not be alone. And my grandfather decided to change his whole identity, dropped his Russian name and changed his last name to suit his own narrative, because he was ashamed of his origins and feared anti Semitism (rampant in my country). It’s evident that Spanish is not her mothertongue and yet she makes all this charade to pretend it is. This nutjob took this fake identity based on this narrative of the exotic sexy Spaniard that really doesn’t hold. margin-left: 0; She was raised ‘in two cultures’ and switches between them, and that’s fine!” I can see him, as the asshole he is, even finding it funny every time a journalist just assumed she was born in Spain and reprinted that lie without fact-checking it because it would make the journalists (not his wife, never his wife!) Meaning: Similar to the English “Half a loaf is better than none,” this means that something is better than nothing, and beggars can’t be choosers! I think he liked that the in-laws were far away and didn’t really need to be dealt with, and he didn’t care much for details. And there is no way someone with her origins, upper class Boston ffs wouldn’t know how Spanish speaking folks are lumped together as illegal, ignorant, the help, and other negative connotations. I mean he has to have a team of people that vet who he is with? But they speak Spanish so they must be here illegally, even the white ones. She definitely has some serious issues. This is such a hot mess and I am thoroughly enjoying it. historic term. Make me feel at home?? If he already caught feelings by the time he accepted the truth, again, what was he going to do? 🧐. Photos courtesy of WENN, Avalon Red. I always “say” it that way in my head. Page Six has a story where Hilarious Hilaria was, just 30 days ago, talking on her podcast about how she loved the brand Zara “before I came to this country.” Bish you were born, raised and likely conceived in Massachusetts. Jessica Biel is another one of his allies/friends/whatever you call it. Not enough water in the WORLD to quench the thirst of *this* one! I do wonder if anyone has reached out to her parents for comment though. No mention of the father in the People mag piece. The times he referred to her as his Spanish wife? Was she inspired by the friends episode where Ross pretends to be a British professor? Anyone who tries to dispute the nonsense gets a comeback of “but he’s a Democrat, don’t you listen to your own?” It’s beyond exhausting. What’s next? @ hotsauce, of course she wasn’t trying to hook him, she didn’t have a tv and didn’t even know who he was! She admitted she came to New York, not America, for the first time when she was 19. I’m sorry, but this is more bonkers than Hilaria’s clarification video. Basically North Western Europe. Spanish speakers are as diverse as English speakers who range from Australian aboriginals to native Americans to South Africans to White British. And she says it all without irony. But then, I know little about her other than she appears to believe she’s taken a job as Alec Baldwin’s baby factory. @SMS you’re still missing the point and it’s pointless to keep trying to explain it to you. In fact, if one word is negative in a Spanish sentence we have to make all of the words negative. How are we just finding out. And her hella dark tans on top of her come and go accent and bs story tell a very different story than a simple “misunderstanding”. I sort of wish there was an upvoting system because I would have been giving up you upvotes throughout the thread. And Alec can GTFOH with his anti-vax nonsense. I agree as well. Colleague of my husband’s lived in Alec’s building fifteen years ago (pre Hillaria.) My favorite part is the article where “Hilaria” claims that her Massachusetts and Vermont-born, lifelong American, Ivy League-educated and professional parents couldn’t pronounce the Anglo-Irish name “Baldwin”, https://twitter.com/booogiebooo/status/1343664478345457667?s=20, That 2014 Vanity Fair article is over the top. In a year lacking in much celebrity gossip, this has been quite a holiday gift. The kindest thing I can say is that she needs help. Uh no. Geez Angel, warn a woman first. I really wanted Marvin or Corey to win. Is her ethnic heritage Spanish? Then Hilaria posted a whole video about how amy shouldn’t be mean to me and body inclusivity something something. A little googling says at least her mother was at the wedding. Some of the wedding service was conducted in … say it with me … Spanish. And amy re posted the photo as a happy holidays from me and my baby like spoof. Wow, this is insane. The marriage was short lived but they had a son together. We show you how the language works. And her fans are defending her and calling her a great mom. Her parents lived in Spain, and so did her brother. I thought your comments were great yesterday and remain amazed at the ones who can’t see the cultural appropriation here. Oh and also, yesterday we kept having discussions about where some commenters said she was trying to be less white and then others would say Spanish people are white. I know I shouldn’t but I kinda feel bad for him. ‘wearing brown like a badge of honor’ reminds me of blake lively Her con has extended to her children. Even *if* she swindled him when they started dating, I feel like the lie would unravel fairly quickly. Yeah, I’m kind of on the fence about him. #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { Sure, celebrities give bonkerballs baby names like Cranberry but nobody, not even Elon Musk, names their child the plural Cranberries. I tried to tell off one of them, but I guess I went too far when I told her to get outta here, and it wasn’t posted. The fact that Alec Baldwin just had to bring up his connection to Jeffrey Epstein and being listed in the notorious black book in all of this — absolute mess. And I’m thinking about them getting married, all the paperwork for that, the pre-nup, him meeting her family? Like dolezal, she took the “glamorized” version of an ethnicity. Natasha my Spanish is really good and I can fake a Mexican accent like a pro. I’m sure he knew their background. I would think an apology and lesson learned was in order, but no – this farce is taken further by defending it. Most pictures of him with his wife and kids are on the red carpet or photo ops. I see her name and ALWAYS think “THIRSTY”. Where would the twenty of them go??? So, yeah, there are a lot of questions about what – if anything – Alec knew about Hilaria’s whole fake Spanish act. This day in age you can’t lie about this stuff. As more parents all over begin to appreciate the social and cognitive effects of language learning, they’re turning to sources like Netflix to help their kids learn Spanish. I think there was ONE interview where she basically imitated a “KMEX television” schtick. I am loving this crazy story way more than I should! An SNL skit about this would be hilarious but it’ll never happen…they are too far up Alec’s a$$ to ever go after his wife. “Hilaria” truly thinks she has two cultures, and is about diversity. She’s not THAT big of a celebrity – it’s the holidays – people are bored and want something to laugh at, but she LOVES the attention. I forget all the details but there’s a very good–if dry–book, “Making Hispanics: How Activists, Bureaucrats, and Media Constructed a New American” that explains it. Occasionally you might meet someone who will go so far as to divide into quarters but rarely do people break it down more than that. Did she just get a bank loan using that pretty smile as a down payment? You also had me @ “took a job as Alec Baldwin’s baby factory” 😆 . Elsa Pataky is Spanish and has blue eyes and light hair. I think Hispanics and Latinos are not classified as white is because the Spaniards and Portuguese came to South America and many of the people now are a result from the colonists and indigenous people mixing. But any anti vaxx garbage is just that, garbage. She just looks like an American lady. Don’t feel sorry for him, it’s Alec f’ing Baldwin, a complete tool. Anyway, I don’t recall what her surname was before she took up with Baldwin. So now he’s saying that she grew up in Spain. Snappy, that storyline took place in season 1 (around 2006, 2007) several years before Alec met and started dating Hilaria. I wonder what year she started using the accent? It’s the comic relief we all need to end this horrible year. Honestly, you’d have to have a rich family to fall back on if your job was Yoga instructor and then Alec Baldwin’s wife. I am now convinced she is mentally unwell. I’m latina and personally find this story mildly amusing but boring already. Everyone else who is “treated white” but wants to NOT be seen as “basic” walks in the door proclaiming to be Jewish Greek Spanish Portuguese Native American Grandma etc. When I say POC I am referring to indigenous people or people with indigenous heritage, Black people from various heritages, and Asian people with various heritages. That’s some Rachel dol..whatever her last name is…level shit! 100%. So: no, not shocked. She did though, she pretended to be Latina specifically in her relationship with Latina and Hola magazines. Personally, I’m on the side of “if it hurts one of us, it hurts us all and needs to stop,” and if that’s not where you are, ok. We can talk about that. Great distraction tho.
