I did some research on this and read that Chris' father, who passed away when he was a young boy, was of german and french decent and his mother, Jeanne Parr (I think that's her name, she was a CBS reporter, pretty sure) is of irish decent. I don't think Chris has any italian in him, although I see how he could be thought to have it. Someone also mentioned greek and serbian?I don't see that, although he does have very distinguishing facial features and dark haireither way, he's incredibly gorgeous & sexy-& a VERY hot looking man & aging so nicelyYum!
LOVE

I definitely see the irish look in him, and even the german/french-pale-toned skin, hazel eyesahem shall I say BEAUTIFUL hazel eyes, great body, NICEST smile in the world, sexy voice-Chris is the ENTIRE package, HOT, HOT, HOTT!!

Pay no mind 2 my colorful emoticons, they are just an expression of my creativity&sillyness:)

No, he doesn't 'just have that look'. I don't think he looks Italian at all. Most Italians aren't dark.
I agree he's got more of a Greek look to him or maybe even Serbian.

I'm going for Italian. He just has the look, you know?

Italians are tiny? Since when? A lot of Italians are tall, a lot of Italians are blond with blue eyes. The notion that all Italians are dark and short is a fallacy and I'm surprised that in this internet age, people still actually believe this drivel. If you go to Italy, you will see people of all different heights, shapes, skin tones, hair color, eye color, just like in most other European countries.

All Italians are not Tiny, Look at James Gandolfini(I guess that how you spell it) Tony Soprano.

i don't know but he looks like a GREEK GOD

He's not Irish at all.
People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading

He's probably Irish and French.

I'm sure that both his parents are of French descent.

My Gradfather was Italian and 6'1 with blonde hair and fair skin. You don't get out much do you?

He doesn't look very Italian to me, and he's so huge, Italians are tiny.
His skin-tone seems to me to border on the typically American greyish.

His father was of Alsatian descent (the Alsace-Lorraine region of France), not sure about his momher name is Jeanne Parr.

For some reason I think he looks Italian as well. Must be his features

He looks part Italian to me. But I don't actually knowhis name is french, so he 's most likely of french decent.
