I always assumed Freddy Mercury was of Greek/Italian or Serbian ancestry or something like that, but it turns out he's Parsi (Indian Zoroastrian). Did you know this? Are you aware of any other notable individuals with surprising ethnic origins?

>Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara; Gujarati: ફારોખ બલસારા, Pharōkh Balsārā) was born in the British protectorate of Sultanate of Zanzibar, East Africa (now part of Tanzania).[10][11] His parents, Bomi (1908–2003) and Jer Bulsara (1922–2016),[a][12] were Parsis from the Gujarat region of the then province of Bombay Presidency in British India.[b][13] The family surname is derived from the town of Bulsar (now known as Valsad) in southern Gujarat. As Parsis, Mercury and his family practised the Zoroastrian religion.[14] The Bulsara family had moved to Zanzibar so that his father could continue his job as a cashier at the British Colonial Office. He had a younger sister, Kashmira.[15]

Parsis are the decendents of migrants from modern day Iran, which is why he looks Irani.

I think most people thought that too

He might just be degpemented, I think he looks more Indian black and white

*meant Persian

>decendents of migrants from modern day Iran,

so are a vast majority of other Indians and Pakistanis.

What makes Parsis different is that they strictly marry within their own community.

I thought Nikki Haley, the United States Ambassador to the United Nations, was just a tanned white lady. Her birth name was Nimrata Randhawa; Nikki is a nickname, and Haley is her husband's surname.

Dude was unironically such an OG Aryan that people in the West instinctively perceived him as one of their own, as opposed to a 'coloured' person.

>When Haley was five years old, her parents entered her in the "Miss Bamberg" contest.[9] The contest traditionally crowned a black queen and a white queen.[9] Since the judges decided Haley did not fit either category, they disqualified her.[9]

I wasn't referring to his looks, the mere idea that Freddie Mercury is Serbian is just so bizarre.
