Kelly Clarkson Guesses Which Celebs Are Actually British | Digital Exclusive

Inspired by her recent chit-chat with the cast of "Downton Abbey," Kelly Clarkson plays a British-themed guessing game called "Brit or Counterfeit." Kelly is given the name of a celebrity, and she has to guess whether they're British or not. Many of the answers leave Kelly gobsmacked - that means "surprised," for you non-Brits.

Audrey Hepburn is Belgian which is not British and Keifer Sutherland is Canadian, he was born in London but raised in Canada and holds a Canadian citizenship and his parents are Canadian so he's a Canadian.

[@jaydel3]

There is nationality, where you are born, Ethnicity, your actual culture/people, and Identity, which is usually where you grew up. For example someone can be ethnically Chinese, but born in Vietnam, but moved to the USA as a 1 year old and knows nothing else so sees himself/herself as an American. Actors tend to move a lot. The question should have just been guess their nationality.

They said Kiefer Sutherland was British because that's where he was born but he's Canadian. Then they say Anna Paquin is from New Zealand because that's where she grew up but she was born in Canada. So how does it work, where they grew up, or where they were born?

[@BruceBatters]

Anna has citizenship for both New Zealand and Canada. So it's still correct either way.

[@joanneaugust1489]

Kiefer Sutherland was born in London, but he's most definitely Canadian. And Naomi Watts has the Australian citizenship as well, if I'm not mistaken.

[@joanneaugust1489]

@Quirkyalonesome Are you American? Because that's the only case in which what you say is true. If you go on a holiday to New York and have a baby there, this baby is entitled to an American citizenship. Every other country in the world (as far as I know) does NOT have this law. If I was born on a holiday in Austria, I would most definitely NOT get an Austrian citizenship, I would still be German because my parents are German. Same goes if my parents reside in a country for longer times, not just for a holiday. They don't have a citizenship, I don't get one. I grow up elsewhere, I will only get that citizenship if my parents already have it or apply for it for me. My birth place is not listed in a single document as a German except for my birth certificate itself.

[@sandrawall]

[@veronicaaccouche1478]

He was born in London on 21st Dec1966, at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington London, to Donald Sutherland and Shirley Douglas both successful Canadian actors who had been living and working in England for some time. He has a twin sister Rachel who works as a post-production film supervisor. His maternal grandfather was Scottish-born Canadian politician and former Premier of Saskatchewan Tommy Douglas, who is widely credited for bringing universal health care to Canada. He's named after director Warren Kiefer who directed his dad in his first film. He has both nationalities.

[@veronicaaccouche1478]

@Quirkyalonesome I agree but there are some that don't use that. Emma Watson was born in Paris, France and Boris Johnson New York, America.

[@rbishop95]

[@curtisrichardson4128]

Anna Paquin was born in Canada… In fact, I think she lived in Winnipeg for a short time. Her family might be from New Zealand, but I believe she is Canadian born.

[@kriz6769]

The producers should have put in a little more work before doing this. Ana Paquin was born in Canada then her family moved to New Zealand and the producers count that as her being from New Zealand but then said Kelly was wrong about Naomi Watts who had a similar situation. Also, Lupita is Kenyan-Mexican as in her parents are Kenyans who moved to Mexico, where Lupita was later born.

[@abbiemills2047]

So she doesn't have Mexican blood? She just lived in Mexico? That's still cool but yeah this whole segment was mixed up and inconsistent

Keifer is essentially Canadian. Born in England to Canadian parents, and he returned to Canada as a child as far as I know. Dual citizenship, but essentially Canadian.

[@stevej1154]

Audrey Hepburn is a complicated case. She was born in Belgium, but had British citizenship through her father.

[@ThatCurious_Cat]

A common misconception owing to geography at the time of birth, but Keifer is actually Canadian. His Canadian-actor parents (Donald Sutherland - his father - most widely known) were stationed in the London, UK filming at the time of Keifer’s birth - returning to their home base in Toronto, Canada shortly thereafter (Saskatchewan, Canada being their actual homeland province, however). It was in Canada where Keifer (and his parents, and grandparents before him) grew up, eventually embarking on his own career in acting as a late teen. 😀

[@michelleikoma2953]

Kiefer Sutherland is Canadian. Grandmother Shirley Douglas. Incredible actor. father is Donald Sutherland. Also an incredible actor. And great grandfather was Tommy Douglas who gave Canadians universal healthcare, welfare, which includes permanent disability income, and employment insurance. Very grateful for all three. A legendary dynasty in Canada.

[@marilynmclellan4666]

Tommy Douglas was his Grandfather, not great grandfather.

It's just that many of us grew up with Can Con rules (Canadian content) for entertainment so we have good Canuck radar. Lol.
