Surprise: Celebs You May Not Know Are Black

- By

Jordin Sparks

Jordin Sparks made history when she won the sixth cycle of the reality singing competition “American Idol.” She was just 17 years old at the time and became the youngest winner in the show’s history. While many wrongly peg the “No Air” singer as being Latina, Sparks is really biracial. Her mother is white and her father is Black. Sparks grew up in New Jersey where her father played professional football for the New York Giants.
