I haven't heard about the Joss Stone thing, but putting on a false accent is stupid. There are obviously many different American accents and I can't tell all of them apart, but I find the American accent sexy in general.

Madonna took on a British accent so it all balances out. No Brit ever told me they hated our accents, but if they really do---look at it this way: We don't speak the Queen's English because it didn't exist at the time of the American Revolution. The Brits changed, we didn't.
Life would be boring if we all spoke newscaster English.

The American accent is fine but I like the British one better. It's one of those accent which you just want to listen to all the time.

Ewww. US Accents are abrasive and some are down right guttural. You are use to it so its status quo but to the outsider...NO! I think our accents are the most disliked, especially when speaking a foreign language.

I guess they feel the way they speak is more refined. Whatever! Have you ever heard cocnkey English- it's slang and it doesn't even sound like they are speaking English

They think we enunciate too much and talk too slowly as if we were speaking to someone that is mentally handicapped.
