Why do so many famous NY people have no NY accent?

[BrothaZay]

Some of them you can tell they from NY but alot of cats from the bity just sound regular

Like I had no idea Eddie Murphy was from there, I thought nikka was from Georgia or something


Same with dudes like Chris Tucker, he don't even sound like he from Atlanta to me

 

[AyBrehHam Linkin]

distinctive accents are becoming a thing of the past. and there are many people who lived in NY their whole life with out a stereotypical "new york accent"

A better question is why do they all move to LA


NY lost

Same with the whole overdoing of the Louisiana accent.

IDK any famous celebrities from Cali or TX who don't have a cali or TX accent

You can lose your accent if you're well read. With that said, most famous people don't have accents. And it's funny, some posters seem to talk more about NY than the people who live here.
