Jan 31, 2012 @ 12:39 am hongnguyen19 My Top Four Favorite Asian Interracial Couples |
![]() Khloe Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom |
Hi everyone!
Considering the news of Heidi Klum and Seal's decision to divorce, just wanted to write about my favorite interracial couples - mainly Asian interracial coupling. I really wanted it to be my top five, but it was like pulling teeth with couples I actually adored. Three out of the four I have listed have Black males, figures haha. Trust me I didn't mean it to turn out that way, but I couldn't think of many off the top of my head except for these. Whether they're together or not, married or dating, I adore them for one reason or another:
1) Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom (married) - Their relationship seems genuine. I like them because they take their relationship sincerely because A) they got married first, B) then decided to have children. I wouldn't put divorce past them, considering everyone is getting divorced nowadays, but for as long as they stay together, I wish them well. New season of "Khloe and Lamar" starts Sunday, Feb. 19 at 10/9 c. Woot woot! Plug, plug.. because you know I'll be watching. **There was a dispute between my boyfriend and I on whether you would consider Armenian to be Middle Eastern or European. For as much as I would call it, I think Armenian is Middle Eastern; take it how you want.**
2) Connie Chung and Maury Povich (married) - "Maury" was one of my favorite shows growing up - before it got uber trashy. I was really young when I first heard that Maury was married to Connie Chung and was so delighted to know he had an Asian wife. I want to say this was one of the first times I actually noticed interracial marriages - weird I know.
3) Kimora Lee and Djimon Hounsou (married) - Good wholesome family every time I see them together. Also love the fact that she's still friends with her ex-husband, Russell Simmons. They really show how divorce and re-marriage can work with new spouses. Plus have you seen Kimora lately? Hot tamale, she really kicked her body into gear after that baby. It looks like Kimora is happy and not worried about being fabulous all the time with Djimon - does that mean no gold toilets?
4) Karrueche Tran and Chris Brown (dating/dated?) - Whether Chris Brown had a terrible past with Rihanna, is still hooking up with Rihanna, or dating Karrueche <--in no exact order lol.. I'm still head over heels to know that Chris Brown is dating/has dated a half-Vietnamese girl (for obvious reasons), but also because they're so cute together! Yes, I Youtube stalked them to see if they were really dating when I first heard, and I approve. (I know I'll probably get people who will say that I'm stupid since he was abusive, but if he truly meant he was sorry and has learned from his mistakes, he has probably grown up from that).
Man, when I tell you I was pulling teeth trying to find celebrity Asian couples that I liked, I meant it. I found an interesting article on why you may see less celebrity Asian couples in the U.S. in general, so imagine the difficulty of finding celebrity Asian IR couples. It came from a blog called "the Fighting 44s." Looks like the blog retired, but still has good reads.
I've got the list below if you don't feel like reading, but you're gonna have to read the article if you want full reasoning:
1. Lack of Asian American celebrities.
2. Lack of Asian American male celebrities.
3. Privacy.
4. Asian Americans aren’t as scandalous (yet, anyway).

Let me know what you think..What are your top faves? Doesn't have to be Asian interracial couples - it can be whatever you like, and be nice. :)

Kola Boof, one of the women rumored to be Osama Bin Laden's mistresses is making claims that she is also sleeping with Djimon Hounsou, husband of Kimora Lee, and get this -- she says Kimora knows ALL about it and there's nothing she can do to stop it! "Oh wait...Djimon Hounsou (in a round about way) told me that I was TOO DARK. But he fucked me many times after Kimora had baby" Kola said in the midst of a Twitter rant yesterday, "Yeah....I fuck that bitch husband more than she do. And she know it & don't say shit about it. She accepts it." Kola goes on to make claims that she's still having sex with Djimon on occasion, drops a list of hotels she's met him at and taunts Kimora several times via her twitter page. She makes claims that Djimon was her man first and that she even slept with him while Kimora was in labor. "He was my man...FIRST. So how do you know what "disrespect" was shown to me??? Maybe I was PAYING BACK the disrespect. And I STILL do. Fuck that trifling Ugly Hog ass Bitch." Read more: http://www.balleralert.com/profiles/blogs/osama-bin-laden-s-mistress-say... |

That is very weird. I find I deal with ignorance too. I know they don't mean any ill intent by being ignorant, but it's still like, really? you think that? kind of reaction on my part. It definitely does bother me people still use the word "chinky" like it's an appropriate word to describe an asian person. I'm in med school, but I can say the school I'm in has very few asians in it. I'm one of the asians. And I found it both humorous and kind of wtf when numerous people in my class called pomegranates as "chinese apples". And then one of my classmates on another day actually said "chinese people are ____" She did not use a derogatory term, but she was basically saying chinese people are known to do ____ like it was a fact. I dunno what to tell you. When I'm faced with these kinds of problems, I usually dont say anything because I too don't know how to stand up to it. I don't want to come off as angry and mean, but i honestly doubt if i said anything that it would change their opinion... |
