Is Amber Rose Kanye West’s New Girlfriend?

Kanye West has been seen a lot with Amber Rose lately. Word is they are a new couple. So who is Amber Rose? She is a model and video vixen. People want to know her ethnicity among other things. Get that information and more from her recent interview with Smooth magazine below.

Give us a little background on yourself. I was born and raised in South Philadelphia. I’m 25 years old. I’m the most feminine tough girl you will ever meet. [laughs]

What makes you tough?
I’m very real and very blunt. I’ve been through a lot, so I have pretty tough skin. But at the same time, I’m feminine in every way. I love clothes and makeup and getting dolled up just like any other female.

What’s your ethnicity?
I’m half Italian and half Cape Verdean. It’s definitely an interesting combination. People are never really able to guess what I am most of the time.

It takes a confident woman to shave off her hair.
Yeah. I am pretty confident in my beauty, and I don’t see a need to hide behind hair. Besides, I can get ready to go out a lot faster now that I don’t have to spend a half-hour doing my hair.

You also have to be confident to survive in South Philly. What was it like growing up there?
It was a tough neighborhood. I went to an all-Black school where I was the only “White girl.” I had to fight a lot because I didn’t look like everyone else. A lot of girls used to pick on me and pull my hair. The kids would tease me by saying I was adopted because my mom was so dark and I look White. People would find every reason to antagonize me.
