can anybody think of examples of american- born celebrities- mainly actors, actresses whose parents are or were initially born outside of the States? or whom have a second nationality

my examples are
malcolm gets- british parents
jorja fox- canadian parents
america ferrera- hondoran parents
eric mabius- (aka daniel meade in ugly betty)- of irish and polish descent
rebecca romijin- of dutch heritage; has a dutch father and american mother of dutch descent

i also forgot alfonso ribeiro aka carlton banks from the fresh prince - his parents were originally from the dominican republic

Walt Disney's father was Canadian

Julia Louis-Dreyfus has strong roots in France... her family is loaded... she is too now, of course!

Her paternal grandparents were Dolores Neubauer and Pierre Louis-Dreyfus, a member of the French Resistance during World War II.

Really? Is she also related then, to Capt Dreyfus? ( The French Army officer who was wrongly court-martialed in the 1800s, after being framed by anti-Jewish elements in the French army )

Good question...

According to Wikipedia, "...She (Louis-Dreyfus) has claimed to be related to Alfred Dreyfus, the Jewish-French Army Captain famously known for being the central figure in the Dreyfus Affair, though this has not been confirmed."


Here's the link to her Wiki page..

Richard Dreyfus has apparently claimed to have been related to the Captain as well, but that claim is apparently being disputed pretty strongly...
