Lee Strasberg Accent your positive and delete your negative. Donna Karan Americans like the British kind of quirkiness and the strange accent. They find it kind of cute or something, with a certain charm. Nick Park Anyone that has come to America past the age of eighteen will be able to understand when I say that you can never shake your accent. Martin Yan Are you trying to give me a hint that I should drop it? I can lose the accent; I just have to really focus on what I'm saying. And I have to talk slowly. Leah Remini But I just know from experience that accent wise, even if you're an accent genius, crossing the Atlantic is the hardest thing in the world either way. Hugh Grant Christopher Reeve did such an amazing job that to give him some kind of accent or more bravado would have been wrong. Audiences wouldn't have responded to that either. Brandon Routh Everyone seemed to be doing well except me and my career. And my accent was no helping me any. Desi Arnaz Everyone thinks that just because you have a Scouse accent, then you must be 'on the rob'. Jennifer Ellison Going to Nashville to meet the in-laws was the first time when I'd been in America and not been seen as some sort of eccentric character with a cute accent. Nick Lowe I am trying to make my accent so it won't bother anyone, but I am not going to drive myself crazy trying to pretend I am an American girl when I am from Colombia. Shakira I created the characters from what I read in the script. I decided how I should talk, accent, no accent, my own voice, or a created voice. Then, I visualize what I should look like. Ruth Buzzi I do have a Mexican accent, but that doesn't mean that I'm a Latin vamp. Salma Hayek I don't need to convince anybody that I know kung fu, but maybe somebody needs to know that I really can act, without doing a Chinese accent or a funny walk. David Carradine I don't want to lose my accent, I just want it to become smaller. Goran Visnjic I guess when I first started speaking with an American accent, there's a tendency to create a caricature of the accent because you just exaggerate the pieces that stand out to you. Radha Mitchell I guess you should approach the roles differently when they're actual people who have been, this is the difference. Getting the accent exact, or the hair exact is less important in a situation like this. Mary Stuart Masterson I had a Southern accent but I had broken it so hard. Josh Lucas I just didn't have time to deliver a Buffalo accent in a day, so I didn't even try it. Josh Holloway I learned to change my accent; in England, your accent identifies you very strongly with a class, and I did not want to be held back. Sting |
