* Actress Tammin Sursok (of Australia soap opera ''[[Home and Away]]'') was cast as Colleen Carlton on American soap opera ''[[The Young and The Restless]]'' which launched her North American career. She has been in various movies and tv shows since then using an American accent. Most recently, as the blind Jenna on ''[[Pretty Little Liars]]''. Although having an Australian accent, the actress was actually born in South Africa (as was her co-star Sasha Pieterse, although unlike Tammin she was brought up in the US).
** She also played an American super model in the final season of [[Hannah Montana]]. For the most part, she managed to sound pretty convincing, but she seemed to have trouble with certain words and sounds and you could tell she wasn't really from the states.
