Every week in our Worldwide Wednesday post, Complex pays tribute to the cornucopia of women from around the globe. We try our best to represent all nationalities and ethnicities, but there's one crucial group of women we haven't focused on yet that everyone can agree on: multiracial women. Globalization never looked so good!
See, in the future, everyone will be multiracial. But for now, we'll have to appreciate these pioneering dimes, who all have ancestors from multiple continents. Since one of our favorite chicks Cassie—who is African-American, Mexican, West Indian and Filipino—turns 23 today, we thought it would be a fitting time to pay tribute to this often-overlooked sub-set of sexy. Throw on your pro-miscegenation t-shirts, pull up a chair and enjoy our picks for The 10 Hottest Multiracial Women...
#10: ESTHER BAXTER
ETHNICITY: African-American, Norwegian, Puerto Rican, Cuban and Indian.
CLAIM TO FAME: The green eyed video model shot to fame after her feature in Petey Pablo's "Freek-A-Leek" video back in 2004. She was also featured in Ludacris's "Number One Spot," Nelly's "Shake Ya Tailfeather" and Kanye West's "The New Workout Plan." Then all of a sudden she decided to get all serious on us and retired in 2007 at the age of 22 to attend college and (we assume) prepare for her recent Complex 7 Interview.

Maybe I care too much; but those are nationalities. Great list, though.

I was gonna school them but then I noticed your comment. They put up nationalities and not 'races' but call it the multiracial list

True, they identified nationalities. But many of those nationalities are also classified in different races, making them multiracial.

Absolutely NOTHING on Vanessa Hudgen's mixed-kids list is a race or ethnicity. If she has Chinese, that's Asian. Irish, Spanish and Filipino are nationalities. Hispanic is ethnicity, but "Spanish" means her roots are in Spain. Is her "Spanish" really Mexican or Central American or South American? She could even be of Cuban, Dominican, or Puerto Rican descent. European colonists left genetic links to slaves and sailors in all the places they visited.

Anon. August 26th, 2009 at 11:48 PM
Why is Esther & Nicki on this list? Esther kind of disappeared. And Nicki is just no.
TheCuteOne September 29th, 2009 at 03:46 PM
I like u...

For some reason, I don't think Esther Baxter is mixed. I know most Black folks are mixed by definition. But Esther's parents are probably both straight up Black. Some people claim mixed heritage because they think it makes them look more sexy and exotic. This is insulting because if you are a mixed person for real, like me; it's not all fun and games and sex appeal in being a multiracial person. Mixed people are marginalized in American society. But I'm a step off my soapbox. However, there are alot of very sexy girls on this list. But Y'all are slipping because you left out Alicia Keys! She shoulda been in the top 3!

You gotta give an honorable mention to: Kristin Kreuk Natassia Malthe Alicia Keys Vanessa Minillio Moon Bloodgood Olivia Munn Jessica Shzor Jessica Lowndes In fact I would put them over 60% of that list.
riff raff August 27th, 2009 at 09:36 AM
excellent list. i'd have put nicki over stephanie as well. nicki has more curves.
Holly August 27th, 2009 at 01:23 PM
Damn! What about Jessica Gomes? These women are hot for sure but this list is all kinds of wrong. I could list about 20 multicultural girls way more deserving.
Really? August 27th, 2009 at 02:36 PM
Why is Stephanie Jacobson on this list? Someone loves them some Battlestar Galactica up there.
