I spent my first 10 years in the Commonwealth. I come from cricket, crumpets, cucumber sandwiches, the Queen.
It's Northern Ireland, it's Ireland, it's Scotland, it's Wales, there's Scousers, Londoners, all behind me.
The only silver lining I can find is that British accents aren't sexy anymore.
I would say the Geordie accent and the scouse accent are similar in terms of I don't understand anything!
There's something very polite about the British accents. It's sort of sanitizing.
I love Brits! They are so full of energy and individuality. I am a fan!
I've always loved English and loved English music and TV shows.
I love London because of the history. The times I've been there have been some of the best memories in my life. Singing there, seeing great theater - and the people like a Southern accent.
England is strictly class-based. What's surprising is how many films are still made with a load of people in silly frocks running around gardens and talking in middle-class accents.
In 'The Hobbit,' there were British, Irish, Australian and New Zealand actors, and Peter Jackson was adamant that we would all sound like we were from Britain somewhere.
The terrible thing in England is if you interview a thousand people, five hundred of them will talk like they're going into a Guy Ritchie movie and the other five hundred will be Mr. Darcy. So we had to find cool, working class kids with no profile who could be John Travolta and James Dean and people like that.
I love English girls! I adore all their different accents. Who knows, I could find a British girlfriend on my travels!
