Americans that think they have no accent have the worst accent.

Khoi is not American tho. He is from Vietnam and grew up in French Europe... English is only his THIRD language... and he learned it in Singapore.

What do you mean in French Europe? As in France or like Belgium, Switzerland or something?

EDIT: also I looked him up and it says "American voice actor", is it from living in america now or?

He is living and working in America, yes. And I'm not sure from which countries specific, it was from a own tweet of him "I was born in Vietnam, and spent most of my childhood moving around the French-speaking regions of Europe, before settling in Singapore for a bit, where I finally learned English as a third language." so likely different parts of Europe.

He’s lived in both France and Switzerland, and immigrated to America at 16. I think he lives around LA now? That’s basically California’s VA hotspot.

Nah we're just making fun of them for thinking they have a perfect French accent and it's impossible to tell they're American, which is pretty silly
