Portugese

Any Portuguese actresses out there please?

[jj]

Isn't English grammar wonderfully ambiguous !
Are you asking for any Portuguese actresses there may be out there to
contact you, or are you asking if there actually are any Portuguese
actresses?

If the latter, I can only think of the rather obvious one- Jade.

What's the source that she is actually Portuguese?

Let me rephrase my question. What's the source of EGAFD's claim that Jade is Portuguese?

[jj]

Ah.
For that you'll have to appeal to a Higher Power [i.e. Alec] :- )

He may respond with a neatly-inscribed stone tablet, or possibly a burning
bush, or maybe even a thunderbolt......

Any more ?

As far as I can remember, I think Walter Burns is right: Jade is not Portuguese, but French. In some French radio programme she took part in during her "stardom" years, her French sounded excellent, no sign of any accent whatsoever. This, of course, doesn't exclude the possibility of her having a Portuguese origin. She certainly participated, along Raffaella Anderson, Richard Lengin & Philippe Soine, in a small film shot around mid 1990s in Portugal. HOT VIDEO had covered it extensively at the time.

I've forgotten, and since my computer crash earlier this year, I can't search old e-mails. But maybe it was a forum post. Does anyone have time to do a forum search?

Here; Mauslyon's post makes the claim for Portugal.
