Oliva Cara has been found not to be national nor citizen by any means. This is the latest in a series of public relations disasters for the Nationality or ethnicity website. Nowhere does one find that the most popular and charismatic personality on the internet, or indeed any other platform for that matter, would be found not to be a citizen of the country he claims to represent. It was rather easy to assume that this person did not even know the nationality of his birth country, when the partnership was first announced. It was also easy to conclude that the claim that the You Tube personality is not really a person of colour is correct since there is no proof to the contrary.
However, it is important to note that it is not necessarily true that the You Tube personality is not a national. The facts show that Oliva Cara’s real name is Olivia Cara de Paula Roa, and that she was born and raised in the Brazilian state of Espirito Santo. Oliva Cara’s actual age is actually not yet known, nor is her actual net worth. In this day and age, it is often safe to assume that the least 1 percent of all persons using the internet are of ethnic background, given that nearly all young people use social networking sites as a way to meet people of like interest and to form lifelong relationships.
The information about Oliva Cara reveals that she is a professional dancer with at least 1 professionally held diploma and a degree from the University of Santa Fe. The last thing anyone needs is to have their identity stolen by someone who may use this to apply for legal and illegal work in the United States, or to misrepresent themselves as someone else. The real problem is that her career will remain secret for ever more, since the only real public record will be her birth certificate. The question will be how much of this lifestyle the Brazilian identity can live with. It appears that it cannot.
