Greek mother and Italian father, or other way around? Isn't Milos a Greek -- not Italian -- surname....?

US citizen?

Is she? Does anyone know? JackO'Lantern 06:58, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I saw earlier that she was born in 1965. Her bio on her web site says that she has a college degree in Economics, that she did modeling in Europe, and she moved to the US in 1990. Most people who go to college full time graduate between 22 and 24. If you add her modeling in addition to school, I'd say she was closer to 24 when she graduated, and maybe even older. She then moved to the US in 1990, so if she was 24 in 1990, that makes her 40 today, which seems about right given that she dedicated her existence to her appearance, some actually look younger than she does at 40. Wikipedia had 1965 for her birth year less than a week ago, I suspect that was the right year, or at least closer to the truth than 1968.

So we still don't know? Well, if she were here this long, she would be illegal. She wouldn't be able to be acting. Michael

Better call the cops on this lady. I never really liked her acting anyway, sooo.... Mad Jack 07:56, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Since she hasn't been deported, that's fairly indicative of her having American citizenship, though I know you won't accept just that. She hasn't been expelled from the country. You really can't be here that long if you're not a citizen, nor can you be employed in such a capacity. Michael 08:05, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How do we know she even lives here? Btw, I love love love this nugget from the IMDB, submitted by the resident IMDB Greek-American or Greek, who submitted essentially this to every single person with any Greek connection, including Nicollette Sheridan: "Considers herself as a Greek rather than an Italian, speaking Greek, being Greek Orthodox and growing up in a Greek lifestyle and community." How much do you think of that is actually factually correct? I'm gonna go for none of it Mad Jack 08:07, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard that before (seriously)...I think someone copied it from another website. Look it up. Michael 08:09, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh no, it came to the IMDB first, part of a series of similar submissions to anyone with any Greek ancestry, and some without, who from that point on "considered themsleves mostly Greek, speaking the language fluently and growing up in a Greek lifestyle". Then it came to Wikipedia from the IMDB, at which point, of course, I deleted it. This mirror site took it from Wikipedia before I had a chance to delete it [1] Mad Jack 08:11, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, then that's widely known and spread across the Internet... Michael 08:12, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, it's only on three sites or so, I think. It didn't get that far. Mercifully I cut it out from this article in February, so that stopped most, if not all, of the Wikipedia mirrors. Mad Jack 08:14, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now, they all mirror each other, instead... Michael 08:17, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Milos Italian ???

As far as i know the name Milos originates from the Balkans. For example my neighbours name Milos and we are from Croatia. The familyname Milos appears very frequently in Croatia and i think also in Serbia. I didn't know that it appaers in Greece to... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.188.78.39 (talk) 11:46, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

She was born in Zurych not in Cuba.

nationality

Born in Switzerland to Greek and Italian parents and working in USA. In the article, nothing indicates she ever resided in Greece or Italy. So I would say she is a Swiss-American actress. 85.217.44.228 (talk) 17:10, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
