  • lol yeah sure new yorkers talked like that... in the 1920's

  • Born in Staten Island, moved to Long Island (not Longguyland). You got no rights messin with the language like this, ya know? Ehhh, you sound like a dieing rat on the subway. Give up on our ACCENT (not dialect) and just fuggehdaboutit for all our sakes.

  • you people realise that you don't know you have an accent i hope...

  • This will be perfect for my audition for Guys and Dolls ^_^ Thanks!

  • She's supposed to be an expert, and she probably does other accents well, but NO ONE can do an authentic NY accent unless you're a native - and a couple of generations wouldn't hurt! ;-)

    It's always too exaggerated. In one of her other videos, she sounded more like Boston than NY.

  • @loveme251000 im auditioning for it on monday

  • I'm from Manhattan, NY we don't have such a thick exaggerated accent. We do have it on some words, coffee, water, banana, New York, etc.

  • i don't have an exaggerated accent. im from manhattan. manhattan people don't really have accents. certains words i do say like a new yorker... coffee, water

  • Came here to audition for Anything Goes! haha... so, yeah, I needed an exaggerated 1920's accent.

  • 48 people are actually from New York

  • this really helped because I had to learn how to do an exagerrated Miss Adelaide accent for Guys & Dolls

  • @loveme251000 thats why i came here! lol guys and dolls
