30 Stars You Thought Were Latino—But Aren't!

Joe Jonas isn’t Latino—but in a new mun2 comedic short, the teen pop star pokes fun at the fact that a lot of his fans think he is: "It's interesting, it seems like a lot of fans think I'm Latino for some reason. It's confusing, I really don't understand it,” he says. In the short—which you can watch here—Joe talks in Spanish slang (dimelo loco!), listens to banda, and orders a lunch that consists of arroz con pollo con frijoles negros (rice with chicken, black beans), dos albondigas (two meatballs) and tres chuletas (pork chops).

It’s all in good fun, but Joe is hardly the only non-Latino celeb who people mistake for being Latin. Here are 30 other celebs you thought were Latino—but aren’t!
