    Her accent in Bloodline is so bad, it's distracting. Her acting isn't bad, but girl needs a vocal coach

      I 100% agree. Watching right now, and came to IMDB to confirm that she is most definitely not American. Every time she says "Danny", I feel like I'm watching Grease for crying out loud.
      It's hard to even listen to.

          Um. . . dude, you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. It says right there in her bio: "Her convincing accent has paved the way for numerous acting roles in the USA". Looks like you have a lot to learn.
          Seriously though, it really is bad to the point that I can't help but wonder why they'd cast someone who so clearly can't maintain the accent.

            Agreed. Her accent is throwing me off.

              I made a post about this as well, it's absolutely horrible. Breaks so many times it's just plain distracting. Her imdb says "her convincing accent" - are you fricken kidding me?

                I don't think her accent is bad, I think it's pretty good. I came to this page for the sole reason that I started to suspect she wasn't American, as some words suggested a hint of accent that sounded familiar (Wentworth). So I came and checked and sure enough, I was right. I was pretty proud of myself until I saw that others think it's blatant. I think it's not that blatant, but you can tell something's off, after a while. Doesn't make a difference to me in this role, though, why does it matter. She's a good actress and pretty to boot.

                  LOL "her convincing accent" - like saying that will make it true
