maybe johnny & christian spend so much time being other people that they forget who they really are.

accents get all jumbled up.

Johnny lives in france doesn't he?
Elle McPherson, Kylie Minogue and Nicole Kidman don't sound Australian any more, because they don't live here, I guess you don't realise it when your accent changes to fit in to your environment.

some people pick up accents without realising.
it does depend on who you are spending time with.

johnny is living in france, and he was irish in chocolat.

That's no doubt true, but seems to be more true of image conscious people who want to be perceived as deep, like Johnny or Madonna, and think British accents are the way to achieve that. smile

They snub Madonna cuz they are jealous of her. She's got attitude that people like to kick back into the ground, but to me that's what made her.

People that spent time around peeps with another accent cannot help but pick it up. My accent adepts itself without me noticing. A friend of mine always makes fun of me cuz he says I gt like ten different accents, depending on who I'm with. He started naming the accents. One of them is called Muriel.

Muriel is the one where I start talking some Brummie and call people 'insidious cunts'.
I also have an Arnie, which is my actual posh Dutch accents. Then there's Albert, named after a market place and comes out whenever I am around original Amsterdammers. Plat Amsterdams, is what we call that accent.
And there's the foul-mouthed Jeff. Named after Stryker, he's something of a "Yeah, bitch! You like that, don't you?"- kinda of porn accent.
