As a black women i don't care that this women is pretending to be black or whatever she is doing in this movie, I'm just tired of people suggesting Halle Berry to play every role that could be played by a mixed or african american actress. She is not that great of an actress she is just acceptable to what america wants to see black or mixed women look like. Ok enough is enough!

What movie is this? I didn't see anything on her filmography that indicated she's doing or have recently done a movie like that.

Just looked this up, her dad is a light skinned black man and her mom is white. Don't know how to post links, but it was under ethnicity on one of the posts on this board.
I've got no idea her ethnicity, but I've always thought she was at least part black. My dad says I'm nuts, but she seems so to me.

Hey Look at Wentworth Miller from Prison Break he's half black and half white and he has blue eyes. The only role he played a black person was the Human Stain and he was pretentding to be Jewish in that movie. then you have Quincy Jones daughter that was in the tv show the Office. So to me Jolene can be black somewhere or pull of being black but I believe she's had a lot of plastic surgeries.

In Slow Burn Nora Timmer(Jolene Blalock) is a wise guy who wants to pass off as a light black woman instead she's a white woman.
in a shot the FBI agent(JJ Cool) saw her in a hairdresser shop and comments: she has a curly hair but not on the root!
In the last shot she's driving away and looks a white blonde woman. -

..Spoiler Alert. The Nora Timmer, Jolene Blacklock's character in "Slow Burn", is supposed to be a white lady passing herself of as black for political and criminal reasons. You should watch the movie before jumping to conclusions.
