"Whitest girl ever, with red hair and freckles. "

There are plenty of Hispanics with those kind of looks. In fact, one of my former students was like that plus had green eyes. She was first generatiion American with Cuban-born parents (and Cuban-born grandparents, all native Spanish speakers).

It’s important to realize that Hispanics can be of any race. If you can see Univision and watch the soap operas that are made in Mexico, you’ll see that many of the lead characters, who are Mexican, have naturally blond hair and fair skin.
