Lana Parrilla, 34

When people first meet Lana Parrilla—one of the stars of ABC's new drama, Once Upon A Time—they don't believe she's Latina. “They think I’m definitely European, but they don’t think I’m Puerto Rican at all…ever," says Parrilla, who's half-Boricua and half-Sicilian. "Maybe it’s because I don’t have the voluptuous figure of a Puerto Rican," she says with a laugh. But Lana adds that she's proud to be Latina and says that some of her features are very Latin. "I have the wide set eyes and the full lips, and those are very distinct Latin features. My hairline definitely is Puerto Rican," she says.
