Each week night, THE LATE LATE SHOW with JAMES CORDEN throws the ultimate late night after party with a mix of celebrity guests, edgy musical acts, games and sketches. Corden differentiates his show by offering viewers a peek behind-the-scenes into the green room, bringing all of his guests out at once and lending his musical and acting talents to various sketches. Additionally, bandleader Reggie Watts and the house band provide original, improvised music throughout the show. Since Corden took the reigns as host in March 2015, he has quickly become known for generating buzzworthy viral videos, such as Carpool Karaoke."

@@Craig121000 I promise I only use it for acting 🙏🏻

[@empalio5305]

I've been trying to explain it for a good few minutes and am having no luck. Embody the emotion then cry how you'd normally cry if you were sad. The cry itself feels physically indiscernible from real crying - i.e. you'll get a lump in your throat, sinuses will be impacted etc depending on how far you push it - rather than be a 'fake cry', so to begin with try and manually replicate the physical process of actually crying - or building up to it. With practise, try and embody emotions until you can turn them on and off like a light switch, and adjust the intensity of them. From there it's easy as your physical response to emotions will be organic, and you'll be able to naturally physically (body language, face etc) replicate the intricacies of the emotion. For example, you'll be able to make your face bulge with veins and spit fly out of your mouth in 'anger' as a natural response to said 'anger', rather than physically crudely replicating the responses. Sorry, I've failed to describe it properly. Try and ask an actor!

Her accent is so weird, but not in a bad way. It sounds like an American accent with a British twang.

[@rajahleighambrosine8421]

She was raised in Britain lol she just lived in America a lot

[@wisco9er536]

And she knows Spanish

[@romydrouin6916]

She was raised both in Argentina and Britain from an Argentinian-Brit father and a Zambian-Spanish mother BUT was born in Miami.. And that's the simplified version

[@purplebubblegum4055]

Her accent is said to be transatlantic

[@jenniferjenkins80]

Her first language is Spanish but she was brought up between LA and London

[@cxherryy]

I always find it interesting hearing her speak because i can never completely tell if it's more of an american or british accent since i feel like it alternated between every vowel.

[@koalapillars]

I thought maybe speaking to James (with his British accent) changed up her accent a bit more than usual. That happens to me when I speak with people with a Southern accent, I start to pick it up it my own speech.

[@sjwells04]

She sounds very Scottish to me here!

[@Fer-he6cq]

Dude this comment made me look her up bc i know she’s from Argentina but this accent thing idk I had to look her up. A quick trip to her Wikipedia page explains EVERYTHING so here it goes, her dad is Argentinian and Scottish and her mom born in Zambia with her parents being one from England and her mom (anya’s grandma) from Spain. Anya was born in Miami, raised in Argentina until she was 6 and then they moved to London. That’s one hell of a story lmao I’m just going to add that I moved countries when I was 7 so my (Spanish) accent changed according to the places and the people I was with and my theory is that now I tend to “imitate” people’s accents because of that… call me crazy for that idk but I stg it happens to me all the time lol so I think maybe that’s what happens with hers 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@noms341]

shes explained this before, she grew up in argentina and moved to different places, family is from different places, english isnt even her first language, so she mimics the accent of whoever she is with subconsciously

@@bellabana Agreed... I think she's more 'striking' than classically beautiful, which tracks as I believe she was originally discovered by a modelling agent and they tend to look for young women with unique and interesting looks more than 'pretty'.
