Genesis Rodriguez – age and ethnicity
Genesis Rodriguez was born Genesis Rodriguez Perez in Miami, Florida in July 1987. She was born to Luisa Carolina “Carol” Pérez Rodriguez a Cuban model and José Luis Rodríguez a Venezuelan actor, singer, performer, and all-round entertainer known on stage as El Puma. He was somewhat of a controversial figure who lived in exile for a long period of time due to the political dissension of his mom. Mr. Rodriguez was married to Lila Morillo whom he married in 1966 and divorced in 1986.

And her father didn’t marry her mom until Genesis was ten years old in 1997. Genesis has two half-sisters through her father’s earlier marriages. They are Lilibeth Morillo and Liliana Rodriguez, both actresses.
