10 Celebs Whose Accents We Can’t Get Enough Of!

Once upon a time, accents weren’t cool.  I know, can you believe that?!  Nowadays, it seems some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry belong to Latino stars with varying degrees of thick to thicker accents.   Some would argue the accent is sexy.  That it gives these Latino stars an extra allure.  But sometimes, as in the case of Sofia Vergara, an accent can just be down right hilarious.  And why not admit it, at times, some of these accents can also be pretty hard to understand.  I can remember several episodes of Dancing With The Stars where I didn’t have a clue what William Levy was trying to say.  Pero, whatever the case, what’s true about these 10 Latino Celebrities is that they wear their acentos with lots of orgullo and that’s what makes them so cool!  These are 10 Celebs whose accents we can’t get enough of:

  1. Interesting that it now seems more acceptable to have an accent. I think it was Salma Hayek who said that having an accent initially made it more difficult for her to get movie roles.

  2. Made me smile and remember growing up people saying my parents had an accent. funny, I never knew they did until someone told me. My siser and I were just talking last night on how we know we have an accent, but it isn’t anything like our parents.
