I am born and live in NY City all my life. I am NOT a transplant. Now it seems that in recent years , I keep seeing, hearing, strange names and strange facial features, unlike anything I am familiar with in NYCity. I mean Justin Timberlake, & Britney Spears - and there are others. Those names, "Timberlake," "Spears" - where are they derived from? What ethnic group, what cultural origin? IN NYC, I have daily seen Hispanics, blacks, Jews, Irish, Italians, Greeks,Syrians, Polish, Russians, & everything under the sun. But about Timberlake, Spears, and others like them, "WHAT ARE THEY REALLY? their faces, & names are an anomaly to me in NY. I don't recall growing up with people like them at all. So can someone give a precise answer about what are these types I mentioned. To which group or ethnicity do they belong? And why are they so popular today? Is it because of their strange exotic ethnicity????
