Upon testing her DNA, Brandi found she is of Italian, Iberian, Balkan, Native American, West African, British, Irish, French, and German descent with trace amounts of Ashkenazi Jewish, Sardinian, East Asian, and Sub-Saharan African.
0.5% of her DNA is unassigned/untraceable, leading some to believe that she is descended from a race of extraterrestrials. She has jokingly said it would 'explain a lot about her personality'.
