Beautiful Native American Women
74Beautiful women of Native American descent.
I've done Bollywood, almost every country in Asia and some in the Middle East.
So let's go home for this Hub, back to the USA.
And you can't get any more American than Native American.
Beautiful Native American women have played a big part in our entertainment culture even though you may not have realized it.
Legendary American actress and singer Pearl Bailey was of Native American descent.
Entertainer and actress and the first African American female to star in a major motion picture, Josephine Baker, was part Apalachee.
Multiple Grammy Award winning American vocalist, Rita Coolidge is Cherokee. She even created a Native American music trio, Walela.
Jeanne Cooper who played Katherine Chancellor on The Young and the Restless...Cherokee.
Legendary actress and singer Lena Horne...part Cherokee.
Actress and singer Della Reese...half Cherokee.
So here are some more women of Native American descent you might know more about......
Cher
Of course Cher had the hit Half-Breed (it was her second number one hit as a solo artist) and if you were alive back then and had a pulse, you remember Cher sitting on the horse singing the song on The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour back in 1973. You can still see the video on YouTube.
I had forgotten what a knock out she was back then.
Cher's father was Armenian and her mother was of Cherokee, English and French descent.

Charisma Carpenter

Kari Wührer
One of my favorite B-Movie actresses of all time, Kari Wührer, is part Cherokee.
Okay, a lot of it has to do with her being Tanya in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, but my love for C&C is well recorded.
Tatyana Ali
Yes Ashley Banks from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is Afro-Panamanian and Indo-Trinidadian.
Angie Harmon
Angie Harmon from Baywatch Nights (remember that?), Law & Order and Women's Murder Club is Greek, Irish and Cherokee.
I remember the first time I saw her, I thought she was literally one of the most beautiful women in the world.
Karen McDougal
Lovely model and actress, Karen McDougal, is of Cherokee Indian and Irish descent.
Hunter Tylo
Like Angie Harmon, when I first saw Hunter Tylo I thought she was one of the most beautiful women in the world.
(But now the plastic surgery.....)
Hunter of course played Taylor Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful.
Hunter is half Cherokee.
Ursula Mayes
Deal or No Deal model (Seasons 2,3 and 4) Ursula Mayes is part Native American.

wow lovely ladies
Kenya Moore have massive boobs....exited hub
So wheres all the Native American beauties? I only see beautiful woman that are part NA. Most likely many don't give two hoots about whats going on with the race and Indian Country
Lovely Hub-Check out my hub on the Cherokee Rose and the Trail of Tears. I posted my Grandmother's photo and wrote about the family's denial of their Cherokee heritage, something I call the Indian in the Cupboard syndrome.
GarnetBird : I did and I think it deserves a link so here it is
all are soooooo beautiful
Yeah...this is a nice list, but these are all women who are part Native American. Most are only a fraction. This isn't a very good representation of Native American beauty. If you had tried hard enough, you could have found some Native American women who are all native, not just partial, and also beautiful.
Actually the title of this Hub should have been " I Bet You Don't Know That A Lot of Beautiful Female Celebrities Have Native American Blood In Them" but that title would have been too long.
What I wanted to show was that a lot of women that are considered beautiful and talented by our society are at least part NA.
It's hard to find full blooded NA's that are very popular in today's culture.
Although in my second Hub about this I do have one or two.
I was expecting to see full blooded Native American chicks. I was disappointed reading that all of these women either are part Native American, or have Native American ancestry.
There are no full-blooded NA in the modern world... only on paper. Many who claim they are full are not, they are are part hispanic, white, or black.
I had no idea with Carrie Underwood. Very interesting.
Fascinating and beautiful! I've always loved Native Americans: their lovely thick black hair, their amazing cheekbones, and their almond eyes and aquiline features - plus they usually have fantastic bods too! (S,cuse all the adjectives but couldn't help it!)
Ive thought of some more (yes, ALL beautiful): Shania Twain; Buffy St Marie; the 70s band Redbone; Julie Felix (part Welsh or Irish and Mexican mestizo); Tina Turner; and I believe the model Jerry Hall said she was part NA...
Hope you 'find' some more (males as well, please). Ei Robbie Robertson of The Band; Lou Diamond Phillips, to name two. There must be masses out there somewhere.
Where's Kateri Walker?
Wow, maybe they aren't popular by your standards, but in the Native community there are tons of beautiful women. I am pretty ashamed and dismayed by the list of celebrities who have done nothing to honor the tiny bit of Native they might be. Only dragging out their "Indian-ness" for PC sake.
Disgusted by this thread. You don't honor REAL Native women by posting this, AT ALL
Looking back at some of the comments here, I guess I should have titled the Hub "Here Are Some Beautiful Female Entertainers That Have Native American Blood In Them".
But you know... that title is just so long.
I wanted to show entertainers that are popular in American culture that have NA blood in them.
Although these women are probably "proud" to say they are part Native, how many of them know anything about their culture or their elder's culture? Have they even been to the rez of the tribe or clan they claim they are from? Just curious.
I really enjoyed seeing that their is beautiful women in the us that have some native american blood in them, but too sad they never grew up on the rez to see how REAL NATIVE WOMEN live life as a Native.
Everybody and their dog can claim to be part cherokee, working with actual Native Americans I come across hundreds of people from the south and eastern united states that claim to be part cherokee (most of them white)
I'm willing to guess that very few if any of the above list can actually show a certificate showing their degree of their blood. Takes more than tan skin and black hair to convice me your native. FYI real Cherokee's are quite dark. I invite all of you to visit a reservation, talk about this with it's people and see just how loud the laughter gets.
Ok so your trying to show some native women,come on now. Show some real natives please. I'm a native women, I was expecting more of the real deal....stands quiet and not noted over and over. Have you seen any native women.
Wow April...really?
I take it you have never read any of my Hubs.
i like hunter tylo pitcher very very much
This girl are wow, wow wow wow
I know that Angelah Johnson (former Oakland Raider Cheerleader, now actress/comedian) is Native American & Mexican. Which is a pretty common mix. Plus a lot of Mexicans & Central Americans etc, are a mix of Amerindian and European ancestry. Which is why many of them have brown skin and dark hair. There's a facebook page, called Women of the Navajo, that features Native beauties.
beauty lovely
Serene hedin used to be very beautiful
Tina Turner is NOT part Native American. Henry Louis Gates Jr. proved it.
Yeah...I mentioned Tina on my second Hub about this.
PS: Oddly enough though, Wikipedia still says...."Tina Turner (Navajo/Cherokee)" and the HUD.gov page lists her in their list for "Celebrities of Native American Heritage" as a Part of American Indian Heritage Month.
micki james is loking prety
WOW! Im part Cherokee on my mothers side too!!!! Come on dude, show some REAL Native American's NOT someone who has a great great great great great grandpa that was 1/2 cherokee.
"Beautiful Native American women have played a big part in our entertainment culture even though you may not have realized it."
I suppose to count, you have to be full blooded.
And here I thought that "pure race" thing went out with goose stepping and jack boots in 1945.
Back in the ancient days the Native Indians were indeed dark skin, these days they are mix mostly with white and that is why their skin are lighter now but there still dark skins out there. America don't want to mention that the slaves lived and mix marriage with the Indians back in these days, most people don't know their history and Blacks are the superior race because they can be any race even white.
I didn't know Carrie Underwood was Native American. I have never seen that picture of Cher before, she is still beautiful. Great hub!
I absolutely adore Mickie James!
