Cuban

I don't know what her ethnic make-up is, but for those that claim that she is mestiza, I can assure you that she is not, since the Tainos were wiped out of Cuba centuries before Eva was born. That said, her mother looks white as in European descendant. Here's a picture of her with her mother [sorry for the long messy hyperlink]:

Anyway, I guess that we would have to look at her father in order to get a better idea of what she might be, but don't discard that she could just be of Spanish ancestry as in Spain. In the South of Spain its not uncommon to see people with exotic features and dark complexions as a result of the centuries of arab occupation as well as the many gypsies that lived/live in the area. To me, she has that exotic gypsy/arabic look.

She could be mestizo or afro-mestizo or mostly mestizo with a little black.she's Cuban IT'S VERY POSSIBLE and not uncommon.

You need to go to black and other ethnic actress boards where everyone is always trying to say they are "mixed" and "part white". Then maybe you need to research colorism and racism in world cultures, especially in Latin/Caribbean enclaves. Or I don't know, in American media. Then perhaps research the billion dollar skin bleaching industry, that also services Hollywood along with rhinoplasties that thin the nose and erase ethnicity. I HIIIIIGHLY doubt you could point out a large number of boards where a white-looking actress is debated to be partially black. But you WILL find a large amount of boards where a black-looking actress' looks is angrily debated to stem from her white ancestry!
Eva is Cuban where like most other Caribbean islands, there are large amounts of people of African ancestry. The slave ship didn't just drop them off in the United States. That's also a reason why some parts of South and Central America have large African ancestry, particularly Brazil, that has the largest amounts of Blacks outside Africa.
I don't know if you're American so you can't go to Cuba. I find that Americans have a false, skewed version of what they think a 'typical' Cuban looks like. But I have dual citizenship and Cuba just like Dominican Republic, is largely BLACK. Again, you can trace that back to the representation of races/ethnicities/nationalities in the media. This problem is especially rampant in Latin media where they have most of the presenters (blonde, blue-eyed, very pale) looking VASTLY different than the majority of the population (brown eyes, brown skin, brown hair). There are HUNDREDS of articles written on this and the varying other issues of color and race ins ociety. . So again, why is it an issue that a CUBAN-AMERICAN with CUBAN (nationality, not race) parents is of partial Afro-descent??
I'm sure if Eva looked more like Gina Torres, Christina Milian, or Celia Cruz then her African ancestry could be more "accepted". Don't let the nosejob, straightened hair, and "light" skin fool you.

She's a mulatta. And LOOKS are absolutely NO indicator of race
LOL - I always get a kick how, whenever ethnicity is brought up on a board, where an attractive woman is concerned, someone will passionately argue that she is either "black" or "part black"! And if anyone denies it, then supposedly that person is RACIST! LOL that is so amusing!
Also - so looks are "NO" indicator of race, hmm? So, by that logic, most people who are calling themselves "African-American", who can't trace their family trees back to Africa, might actually be "WHITE"?

Someone is angry and probably jealous.

Who cares what she is, the biiootch is ugly.

I have read, elsewhere, that she was born in Houston, Texas. I always though she looked Mexican, like Raquel Welch.
The new Miss Universe is very much her facial type.
