What is your favorite foreign accent?

Lara Logan (60 Minutes) is from SA. Her accent is a bit watered-down but it doesn't seem to matter since she is such a vision of beauty to watch. She is routinely imbedded with US armed forces and has filed a number of reports from very risky places in Iraq and Afghanistan. She was seriously brutalized by an Egyptian mob during one of her reports on the Arab Spring. This lady has a lot of guts!

Trevor Noah (The Daily Show) is also from SA. His accent is a bit more evident, but still not the same as a native just out of the box.

I'm going to have to think a bit more on this, but I think we both agree, It is a most interesting accent.

Wow, Lara Logan. Saw her on CBS a couple of times. Hard to even pay attention to her accent with those looks of hers. Whew. Anyhow, thanks, Raven. This is exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for when starting this thread.  RM
