Aww jay that's such a nice post, I love it. I'm so glad Yousef got to go too, he's had a rough time lately I believe, so it's really nice he got another cool red-carpet experience. Those things mean more to him than anyone.
I love how Jess looks with that trophy-cup-award-thing, I am looking forward to that being uploaded to YouTube because I forgot to watch early on when that part happened. Parts I saw later on mostly were not worth watching, half the times I flipped back to it usually included Flavor Flav.
And umm it's cool to see Jess and her copycat Hogan reunited, but Brooke looks SCARY AS HELL in that picture.

Well, I think she's been back in the states at least three years now, hasn't she? And when she was taking acting lessons back in New Zealand, they may well have done a fair bit of accent work then, too. Her accent has never been all *that* strong in the interviews.
Hmm, you know what we need lately? Thor Knai updates!
Thor, pretty man, what have you been up to these past three months?

Thanks Jay, I totally spaced on the show. I feel like a proud uncle watching these two kids in the limelight.
ETA: A monkey's uncle at that!

Jess came to the United States in May 2005. She was born in Salisbury, Md and would have learned to speak there before she moved to New Zealand. Her folks are American (or at least her dad is) so she can probably move back and forth pretty effortlessly. She has spoken with an American accent in all the interviews she has given. There are some more examples of her accent in the IMS in the Media thread. Edit: She drops into a New Zealand accent when doing interviews in the New Zealand or Australian press. I remember this in her brief appearance on 60 Minutes Australia. And I think there are some other examples. |
