The Greatest Accent Switch EVEr

[@youdoitillwatch]

British actors can often pull off a pretty decent American accent, but her's isn't just decent, it's absolutely perfect.

[@BingBingBongBong]

youdoitillwatch this is a Californian accent not an American accent.

[@BingBingBongBong]

There are different dialects.

[@PortuguesePirate99]

I think tom holland does a pretty good job tbh

[@Fusion0175]

Joey Ojeda unless California somehow separated from the US it's still an American accent

[@seamusin1697]

Joey Ojeda Huh? What is that supposed to mean? California is part of the US!

[@CarissaConti]

It's not just the American accent pronunciation that's amazing, it's the way she lowers her voice and adds the subtle vocal fry effect that makes it absolutely flawless.

[@jacobnolan1832]

The vocal fry is the key component of a California accent

[@squidport_]

vocal fry is what makes it lower

[@toziassmitt]

“Would you like that venti-mmm?”

[@WhoThisMonkey]

Can I have ketchup with her vocal fries?

[@tomspettigue8791]

The valley girl rumble, incredible

[@jso19801980]

[@craiger0069]

Jon.o that's L.A. for you!

[@sjamiljahangir]

das cuz she hot

[@jamesgray7064]

It's Hollywood...remember, it's in the worst state in the US for a reason.

[@jimmybootz1277]

She can figure out my special relativity!😕

[@chado3000]

Jon.o She looks relatively special to me.

[@olafpayne]

She also smiled more and her mannerisms slightly changed. There is more than just an accent.

[@IndomitableT]

Peer pressure as a child will do that to you …🤨😌

[@spartanrh83]

Correct. It's a persona. Makes sense, she's an actress. Creepy as hell though.

[@ying6726]

Well accents do carry different vibes so it's necessary

[@Studentofgosset]

She was showing how it is acting, a facade. Typical of Americans actually, they always seem like they are performing for an invisible audience. Like teenagers, actually.

[@estherhinds6314]

​@@Studentofgossetno, Americans are simply a bit more extroverted as a culture. To you it may seem like performing, but really it's just that there's a certain openness in general American interactions. They tend to have a lot of energy and passion, and that is reflected in their movement and expression at any age.

[@xvs8675]

LOL the cut-off "WWWOOAAAA--" from the crowd makes it extra special. 😂

[@dawnqwerty]

Bait Master like the wii sports wow

[@ForwardEarth]

Knowing how to spell "whoa" is the most special.

[@letsparchmentitupyo7566]

Mister XVS yeah!!

[@leensah3567]

I’m laughing my ass out abt something silly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂”woah”

[@LBPreviews]

I cant stop laughing at this hahah

[@Megacooler96_]

Just look at Gary Oldman, he can be American, Russian, British, etc

[@nvincipality6371]

Jonathan Morales Yep and in fact he did other accents so well he had to get an accent coach to get back his original accent!

[@TheShattenjager]

Jonathan Morales yeah well Gary Oldman is a freakin sorcerer. The man’s talents border on the occult he’s one of the best actors alive.

[@jedharper5858]

true romance

[@TheOldBlackShuckyDog]

Jonathan Morales he is British?

[@McSuperfly101]

jed harper - I fucking love Gary Oldman in that movie.

[@daaekim4226]

Most British actors can do a decent American accent, but there’s always something tiny or underlying that isn’t quite native or natural in American English speakers. Her intonation and accent, though, are completely flawless and effortless. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else do two accents perfectly.

[@zoltanszaszi2264]

For sure

[@edwardplackett7403]

How can you say Native? I don't think American English is Native. Nothing is natural is the cess pit of America. African Americans are not African neither are the Irish. You are American nothing else.@@zoltanszaszi2264

[@rivierapalms6485]

Emilia Clark does quite a good American accent. But then I’m English so it could be awful 😂

[@davidjorgensen877]

Christian Bale, Hugh Laurie, Daniel Day-Lewis, Kate Winslet, Tom Holland ...

[@melvinjoseph952]

​@@davidjorgensen877Throughout the 2000s, most people didn't even know that Laurie and Bale were English ...Also, I don't think Tom Holland belongs on that list, his accent is very good, but not better Eve's

[@luisortiz5880]

I think the most impressive thing is the fact that there is barely a pause, it's so fluent and seamless

[@sce2aux464]

Canadian James Doohan from Star Trek would change accents going from room to room. "Engineer? Hey, he'd better be Scottish."

[@eolsunder]

hey, she's been doing it since she was a child, so yep she's good at it.

[@RichardX1]

The trick to the L.A. accent seems to be saying, "like" a lot.

[@blue3374]

It's honestly the trick to any American accent

[@Iavcxoxo]

@@blue3374 not rlly

[@SMacCuUladh]

you can say like in any accent, think about your life choices

[@ec7001]

Like is one of the most used words by Americans lmao has nothing to do with LA

[@interestedbystander196]

And the vocal fry.

[@SliceofBread123]

It’s scary how she can change that easily. It’s like a different person.

[@darkale658]

It's always weird to me that people find bidialectalism phony or scary but being bilingual is perfectly ordinary.

[@dragonball3166]

American language simple to pick up hang around teenagers it’s impression I get from watching actors actresses from other country try talk American

[@tofutoph]

American accents are easy to pull off with how much exposure there is to American media. That’s why it’s harder for American actors to use a British accent.

[@aidenspoto632]

okay put it like this. you grow up watching american movies, tv shows etc. pulling off an american accent seems amazing to americans but not so much to other countries

[@EGarrett01]

Actually a lot of actors suck at American accents and you can tell they're not from this country. On top of that, Chris Pratt did an accent on the Graham Norton Show that he got from watching TOWIE and the British audience was amazed.

[@B355Y]

EGarrett01 so one american pulled off a British accent? Check out keanu Reeves attempt in Dracula 🤣 The British can do american accents better than americans can do British accents

[@matman000000]

To be fair, the american accent is a fusion of many different accents from immigrants all over the world, making it very generic and probably the easiest to learn.

[@ralphyboy6996]

Shut the fuck up, Captain killjoy.

[@alyjustine3408]

yeah i dont get whats so great about doing an american accent. i learned from watching shows as a kid. my friend from new york tells me i "sound like a white girl"

[@lohphat]

My best friend was born in the UK and moved to LA when she was 8 -- I didn't meat her until she was 24. I didn't know she was English until her grandmother called her and she switched without skipping a beat into her native accent and it freaked me out.

[@Mike_S_68]

What was it like when you meated your friend? 🍆

[@Pacific_Norfweest]

I'd like to meat her too.

[@MichaelCronan49]

It's not hard to switch from English accent to American. It's all over our tv's when we grow up

[@cherbutler85]

What do you mean, "Its all over our TV's"? Are you saying American television shows are frequently broadcast in England? If yes, please state which shows,..if you don't mind.

[@MichaelCronan49]

cherbutler85 yeah of course they are. Literally there are too many to list 😂 essentially every tv showm and movie is broadcast in the UK

[@thevillageidiot70]

all sorts... friends, tbbt, romcoms, the flash, the arrow, American documentaries, etc, etc

[@allsystemsgootechaf9885]

Pretty there is no american accent

[@michaela6087]

LittCoin Af lol what? Are you deaf or did you really just not watch the video?

[@luciustitius]

She’s damn right about peer pressure. It forced me to change accents (German ones and Swiss) every two years - it was horrible back then. Now it is fun because for about five different regions I can pretend to be native.

[@Azulmine]

she has a perfect los angeles accent. it's crazy. where she holds her voice in her throat changes when she switches accents, it's lower in the throat. the shape of her smile changes and effects her accent in a way that's 100% native los angeles.

[@_spoon_fed_chronicles_3289]

Wow! Like a different spirit jumped right in! Talent at it's best!

[@saraaldakhil4675]

She sounds like Drew Barrymore

[@pauldavison7105]

Sara dakhil but is a lot hotter

[@MrAmad3us]

People being shocked at seeing million dollar actors being good at acting

[@koalakoala2344]

When you‘re german and recognize the change after the fourth time watching the video. Now the joke is dead. I don‘t care, I‘m german, I‘ve no humor anyways...

[@larbibennani7721]

bro im not german after ten times couldn't see any difference u_u

[@maisie2162]

Same here, but at that point I was too afraid to ask because everyone in the comment section seemed to be absolutely amazed

[@annabanana9897]

Carlton West Kate Beckinsale is so way beyond number 1, the number "1" is ridiculously inadequate to describe her. Alice Eve is number 2.

[@kailashchandra555]

Don't know about best but she is certainly the most beautiful

[@shinwave]

The crowd reaction at the end they went UUUWOOOOOAAAOOO😂😂😂

[@davidjorgensen877]

When I travel, it doesn't take long for me to subconsciously slip into the accent and speech patterns of the company I'm with. In 1998 I was on a scuba dive cruise in Australia with fellow dive tourists from around the globe. All day long I'd been conversing with people from different countries, all speaking English with their own native accents, and I'd found myself just naturally falling into their speech patterns. That evening, after the day's diving was done, we were all gathered together on deck enjoying memories of our day under the night sky, and I found myself surrounded by everyone all at once. With nowhere to hide, my only choice was to revert to my own Canadian accent. I got a lot of weird looks that night.

[@MisterRay187]

Gawd she's gorgeous ❤

[@jeffcon123]

She is a bomb yo. Super gorgeous

[@meedily]

She's magnificent.

Alice had a 2009 crime drama named Crossing Over. Fans of Alice should definitely look that one up.

[@twirlypenpsn4771]

This is called bidialectal. Gillian Anderson is a well-known example of being this.

[@mickesmanymovies]

I remember back in 2002, when I was in Los Angeles for the first time, staying at Hollywood Hostel (awesome place btw). I'm from Sweden, and I was travelling alone, so I just kind of hung out and talked to whoever was around. On day five a guy from Norway and a guy from Denmark showed up, and we wound up sitting out on the patio playing guitar and talking (Danes, Norwegians and Swedes can sort of understand each other, at least enough to make light conversation). One of the guys on the staff, who I had been hanging out with quite a bit, came out and was just staring at me. I went "What...?" And he went "Where the fuck are you from??" "I'm from Sweden." "I seriously thought you were from southern California!" I always knew my english was good, but now I also know where to believably fake where I'm from - if needs be. :-)

[@mickesmanymovies]

Hound19745 Strange question to that anecdote.... No, I didn't. But then again getting laid wasn't really a priority for me with that trip. I had basically emptied my savings to spend two weeks seeing LA and San Francisco. My time and money were spent on Universal Studios, Six Flags, Alcatraz, movie theatres, souvenirs and food (prioritized in that order). Had someone offered I wouldn't have turned them down, but I was too busy with more important things to spend any time trying to get laid. I did go to Universal a second time, with a danish girl staying at the hostel, and we had a great time going on the rides, seeing the shows etc.

[@geovannytejada9506]

I’m from SoCal we got a pretty laid back style of speech, but it varies from region. Anyhow glad you enjoyed our state brah 🤙🏽

[@mickesmanymovies]

Geovanny Tejada Oh I did, and do. I've been back to LA once more (in 2006), and as soon as I feel comfortable returning to the US (as things are right now, I really don't), I have Los Angeles, San Francisco and Las Vegas as my top west coast priorities. I wanna show the missus all these awesome places!

[@geovannytejada9506]

Mikael Karlsson understandable things in our country are a bit “unusual” at the moment, but things will get back to normal soon I hope. We are a young country with many faults. And still are learning some hard lessons. Don’t lose faith in America 🇺🇸 🤙🏽 had a blast in Europe a few months back, hope to see you and you’re country men and women back here one day.
