Believe it or not, Hailey is actually Brazilian! We were shocked when we heard this because she is a blondie, but her Mom, Kennya Deodato, is actually the daughter of Eumir Deodato, a pianist and producer of big names such as, Tom Jobim, Aretha Franklin and Frank Sinatra.
Hailey had a lot to say about her roots, “I am too Brazilian. I grew up listening to my mum and grandmother talking in Portuguese and eating rice and beans. I am just sorry to don’t speak the language with fluency”. Hailey also has a tattoo on her right ankle that says, Minas Gerais. “It was where my grandmother was born. I always wanted to do a tattoo to strengthen our connection and my ancestry. She helped raise me and was always at home to take care of me,” she said.
While we love to see Hailey succeed in her modeling career, it looks like she has a different plan in mind. She admitted to the mag, “I know that one day I will try to be an actress. Would be a shame not to continue this family tradition.” Wow, we’re totally surprised by this, are you?
