I just saw her on Craig Ferguson and she definitely doesn't sound like a Yank. Her natural voice is much higher than her put-on American accent and, to me, it sounds almost Cockney. I think it's great/hilarious that 3 of the main characters on the show aren't from the US and I could never tell until I saw them in interviews.

(Although, to be fair, being a US Northerner with Southern relatives, "yank" usually has a slightly different connotation for me :) )

Have I left any places out??!!?!???!! ROFLMBAO!!!

Erm..yes

Next time just write "All over"

LMAO (still) I understand that the question was probably a legitimate one born of naievity but.....(cracks up due to too much laughter...)

"I Blame Television...."

You can also see her talking in her real voice on those C4 "celebrities talk about random childhood or favourite stuff" things which have been running in between the ads for the past year or so. In one she talks about her first car. Her name was Maude.

I know, could the comment be any less offensive ?

Black people in the UK tend mostly to live in urban areas of our cities. They are certainly not all concentrated in London and the Midlands cities. I believe that Bristol, Manchester and Liverpool have substantial black populations.

Well not to put a damper on the subject at hand but black people are not solely in urban areas. As an american gal who has lived in Sheffield not Bristol or Liverpool, Manchester yes, I've seen black people in Scotland, Wales, and being a woman of colour myself I just found the urban comment a little tacky. My dad is Jamaican (mother) and scottish (father). We lived in Shrewsbury and some of my black relatives live in Leeds, cleethorpes, Leicester also. Learn to choose your words wisely because you never know who's reading this.Thanks....
