Lol apskip that is what we were trying to tell you it goes beyond being born in Honolulu which what you initially said.

I will add many of the people I know born even 4th generation lets say American they will never deny their heritage they are very proud.

Seeing Carrie Ann is fluent in Japanese and continues to actively work there I find it hard to say there is nothing Japanese about her. We dont know what she practices either so it’s hard to really speak for her.

I can totally respect where TARAsia is coming from and trying to tell you.

** Finally and most importantly with a little more research apskip beyond google you can check her myspace where she herself has written her Ethnicity is Asian!!

Singer Lance Bass putting his best foot forward

The last time Lance Bass went on tour, he was singing the pop hits "Bye Bye Bye,” "It’s Gonna Be Me” and "This I Promise You” with superstar boy band ’N Sync.

Sure, Bass and his bandmates also were known for their dance moves back in 2002. But the group’s synchronized hip-hop routines bear little resemblance to the ballroom style Bass recently learned on the popular reality TV show "Dancing With the Stars.”

When "Dancing With the Stars: The Tour” mambos, cha chas and waltzes into Tulsa’s BOK Center on Friday, Bass, 29, and his professional dance partner, Lacey Schwimmer, will be among the performers cutting a rug.

"I love entertaining. ... I definitely don’t consider myself a dancer, but I think it’s entertaining for people to see me try,” he said with a chortle. "You can get a good laugh.”

He and Schwimmer finished third behind football player Warren Sapp with Kym Johnson, and the champions, model Brooke Burke with Derek Hough, when the show’s seventh season ended Nov. 25.

"I was crossing my fingers that they’d ask me to do it (the tour), because I love being on the road; I love performing in front of ... people. It’s definitely my passion,” he said in a recent phone interview from San Diego.

The tour also includes stars Toni Braxton, Maurice Greene and Marlee Matlin and several of the show’s dance pros.

Bass and Schwimmer will perform a few solo routines from the show, and he will dance in four group numbers. One of his favorites is a fun, sexy number in which he dances with "Lance’s Angels,” four of the female pros.

Although the singer/actor/producer didn’t know dancing would be part of the gig when he joined ’N Sync, he learned to love it. His experience with the pop group gave him the confidence to join the reality dance competition, which he viewed as a challenge. He was thrilled not only to finish third but also to perform every style of dance the show offered.

While he plans to continue ballroom dancing for fun, he doesn’t expect his newfound skills to figure into his long-term plans.

"I think I’ll be hanging up my ballroom shoes for sure after this tour,” he said with a laugh. "It’s a lot of fun ... but as far as taking it seriously and changing my career into dancing, I don’t think that’s going to happen.”
