Miranda Cosgrove was been featured on Now That's What I Call Music! 30 (U.S. Series)

Miranda Cosgrove's "About You Now" was been featured on Now That's What I Call Music! 30. I do not think believe that Miranda Cosgrove will be on Now That's What I Call Music! 32. Miranda Cosgrove is not being in the Now's. It's the first time Miranda Cosgrove was on Now That's What I Call Music! 30 not the other Now Volumes.

cover song error

A cover of Sheryl Crow's "First Cut Is The Deepest" was posted on Cosgrove's official Youtube channel on July 21, 2013.

Shouldn't that say "Cat Stevens" instead of Sheryl Crow, since Cat Stevens wrote the song? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.157.23.215 (talk) 02:00, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Done, thanks! -- Irn (talk) 14:38, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Ethnicity

Really only English, Irish and French?? She looks pretty exotic looking to me, especially around the eyes she looks part Asian. I'd have thought more Filipino/Italian/Portuguese/Native American than English or Irish! I mean look at , I find it hard to believe she doesn't have some East Asian/Native American in her. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:47, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

If we could find a reliable source that gives an evaluation from someone considered an expert in the field of deriving ancestry from physical appearance, we could add additional ones beyond the existing ones that are supported by sources that state where her ancestors lived. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:04, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

I am not convinced we should add something based on appearance, even if the evaluation is from an "expert". With that said, I might change my mind if the source is of high quality. Nymf (talk) 15:39, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

What's the point of this comment? Do you want to take that part out of the article? You know how Misplaced Pages works: we need sources. -- Irn (talk) 15:34, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

Of course we shouldn't add anything based on appearance. What's the point? I'm wondering if she actually has other ancestry which isn't mentioned in the article or something is missing. Sometimes a lot have Native American which they don't know about. I'm just surprised as she has a very similar look to what some actresses of Filipina/Native American/Portuguese descent have. Obviously we can't add anything unless a reliable source states it. She or somebody should do a family research thing for her on the genealogy site like they did for Armie Hammer!♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:55, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

What we have in the article right now is family lore with only Cosgrove's unsupported word on this. She did indirectly reject "Asian" in that twitter message. I am surprised that her family lore does not support "Cherokee" which seems to be the vastly most common Amerindian ancestry claim for some strange reason. I think we shouldn't put a lot of credence on unsupported primary source info such as this, and I personally think it does not belong, but it seems wiki convention is OK with it as being reliable and in articles. If there were a genealogy study published in a reliable source, that would be useful and interesting to add to the article to explain her somewhat unique appearance.

Years being bunched up to filmography

I don't know what they're called, but looking at other articles, these aren't used. They are separated, and the year is placed multiple times. Should this be changed? Any rule to this? -- Jones210 (talk) 23:49, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Birth date

Currently, we are citing an Instagram post for a birth date of May 14, 1993. The post, dated May 14, 2015 has Cosgrove saying "#22" and "Thanks for the midnight surprise." The assumption that "#22" means her 22nd birthday (in the Western sense) seems reasonable. Whether the "midnight surprise" was at the very beginning of her birthday (May 14) or the very end (May 13) seems shakier. I've tagged it for a better source. - SummerPhD 04:00, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
