Nothing wrong with the interviewer - Jolie is fucking with her right off the bat - blaming it on 'bad journalism' and other interviewer's 'stupid questions' - and then when the interviewer gives her a chance to set the record straight her response is 'um, i don't understand...' -CUT! Just answer the f'ing question! Poor interviewer is visibly uncomfortable. 'I'm in the ROCK SECTION. I've always been in the ROCK SECTION. Whatever. I'm in the Rock Section. I don't care.' Yuck.

what would be odd would be if she talked with a deliberately contrived accent. Most singers use different accents when they sing, she just has vowel modification cranked a couple of notches higher than some, because it's a sound that feels right to her I'd guess. I like the sound of it too, so I think she's right.
-
So she actually doesn't have a strong accent? Hmm. That makes it even weirder. Not sure about that?

I thought of a new category -- Emo Folk

@yowza69 You mean how all of the british rockers that sound like they are from the East Coast, and then when they talk, they sound like they are fans of Manchester United?
-
Why the FUCK does she sing with a southern accent? She speaks like a stupid valley girl, from LA.
I wish I had never seen this video. It's going to be difficult to listen to her singing twang knowing it's fake.

This has been going on forever! It's amazing they still ask these questions despite such well-known episodes as:
1) Interviewer: Do you consider yourself mods or rockers?
Ringo: Neither, we're mockers.
2) Interviewer: Do you consider yourself a poet or a rocker?
Dylan: Nah, I just consider myself a song-and-dance man.
Why the hell are reporters so hell-bent on classifying things?
I really just don't get it.
