Do you look Jewish?

What are they, "Jewish looks"?
In Europe it is often used to mean North African.
In America, Ashkenazic.

Is this a Jewish look?

due to intermarriage

More likely conversions, in the old times.

Also rape, horribly enough.

Are the first two models or celebrities? If so can you name them? They look really familiar but I don't know why. Actors in TV shows I've seen?

The blond is Galia Abramov, the black girl is Esti Mamo :)
Both models.

sometimes Jewish people look a little different from other people in their country of origin b/c they only marry each other. but they also generally look different from Jewish communities in other parts of the world. and then there are some exceptions...like an ashkenazi person looking Sephardi, or a Sephardi person looking ashkenazi etc. so far I haven't seen an ashkenazi person who looks Ethiopian or Chinese or vice versa :)
