Like most Americans I tend to assume that all famous people are American. Today I am very interested in learning about 10 celebs that are actually British. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!

    Christian Bale does NOT have a Welsh accent, he has a London/Essex accent.
  • @DJ_Sycottic
    I don't know what's funnier, Christian Bale having a Welsh accent or Staffordshire being a city?...😂
  • Hugh Laurie is also a comedian. He, and Stephen Fry used to have their own shows in the 80s/90s.
  • @anniemoore6455
    are you crazy "Hugh Laurie" is the quintessence of being English
  • @MostlyPennyCat
    Hugh Laurie is actually famous for Americans thinking he's American.
  • @jimreid4367
    Hugh Laurie started his career as a comedy double act with Stephen Fry and then went on to be a regular in Blackadder .
  • @queenslanddiva
    OMG. There are famous people who aren't American!! Who would ever have thought that
  • @donsland1610
    Not only is Hugh Laurie a brilliant actor, he is a very good comedian and blues pianist who tours with his own band.

    Tom Hardy lives near me. He often turns out for local events like village fetes and church fayres. He even came to a sort of cos play jousting tournament last year. Not as a celebrity or guest of honour, just as a local supporting local events. He's very unassuming. Top bloke.
  • British actors on American movies, TV, goes back a long way. Bob Hope was born in England, so was Cary Grant, Elizabeth Taylor, Stan Laurel in Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin, and many others
  • @stumccabe
    The fact that they can pull off such convincing accents shows how mega-talented some of these actors are!
  • @Raggmopp-xl7yf
    Gary Oldman is British but he spent so much time speaking Yank in his films that when he had to play an actual Englishman they had to get a voice coach in to reteach him how to speak Brit.
  • @TheYoungDoctor
    Staffordshire is a county not a city. He was born in Stoke on Trent which is a city in Staffordshire.
  • @londonbobby
    If you really want to be shocked by Hugh Laurie then go and find some clips of him playing Bertie Wooster. They're hilarious and he is very upper class British indeed.
  • @tmac160
    The 30 year British TV career of Hugh Laurie gone in a flash.
  • @drlizzardo4373
    After a few of your videos the lack of knowledge of anything beyond the US astounds me,
  • @richardwani2803
    How can you be huge fan of Hugh Laurie and not know he's English he's had a 40yr career the mind truly boggles
  • @helenroberts1107
    Tom Hiddleston played an American singer and Robert Pattinson played Batman and on Twilight, both British. One American actor who does a great British accent is James Marsters off Angel and Buffy the vampire slayer. I didn’t realise he was American at first
