if she looks anything at all like her artistic portrayal of her own race, then it's forgivable. But she photographed herself as being sweet n beautiful!!! What to do, as she's playing her trade in westernized culture. Remember the old movies featuring Chinese, eg. King Manchu w/ beady eyes; & now she, herself a CHINESE, is doing that!!! This is what Chinese call 忘本 ( when successful, forgotten one's humble ROOTS)!!!
