Attractive Irish Accent?
Dervla | June 27, 2007The study of 4,000 adults, published today, reveals that 27 per cent considered the Irish accent most attractive. A Northern Irish accent was considered most attractive by only 8 per cent of those surveyed.
And our own Colin Farrell gets a mention. Some Dubliners might suggest that he has a fake Castleknock accent, however, as a big fan myself I can look past that
Asked to name the celebrity with the sexiest accent 26 per cent said Scotland’s Sean Connery, followed by fellow countryman Ewan McGregor on 10 per cent, England’s Hugh Grant, also on 10 per cent, and Dublin-born actor Colin Farrell who was favoured by 7 per cent of those surveyed.
Full article can be found on ireland.com and the full survey can be found here, although I’m having difficulties getting to that site at the moment.
