White people dominate Hollywood just like how they dominate many other areas! Individuals who belong to the other racial groups keep criticizing them for "whitewashing" Hollywood. Many American producers and directors prefer white people to play even the non-white characters! Their weird casting choice fuels the backlash the Hollywood white men receive, particularly from the black community. The African-Americans may have a point or two to criticize the rich white boys, but we firmly believe that they are not aware of the 12 black celebrities disguised as whites! These stars have a black parent, but they hardly look like an African-American because of their pale skin and facial features. Nonetheless, they have a black lineage. Most of the celebs don't talk about it, though.
#5 Wentworth Miller
Wentworth Miller looks white enough that many of us didn't have an idea that he's born to a black father. The "Prison Break" star's father, Wentworth Earl Miller II, is a lawyer and a teacher. His mother Roxann is a special education teacher. She is a Russian white woman with Syrian and Lebanese roots. No one had an idea about Wentworth Miller's racial identity until the famous English actor announced it in 2003. He is also one of the very few celebrities who are openly gay. He said he tried to kill himself for being a gay when he was 15 years old, but he is now fighting for LGBT community rights.
